You gave
me your
number on
a napkin
in a
coffee shop

I didn't
think i'd
text you

but you
tripped on
your way
out so

maybe I will

I need to love,
Love is far too easy for me to give.
But this world's too vast for me,
This life isn't mine to live.

I can't tell you much,
But I can tell you what I know.

I need to love,
I need to love just like I need to breathe.
Rejecting faith and magic never helped me,
But I can't make myself believe.

I can't tell you much,
But I can tell you what I know,
This life's not just mine to live,
I can't live all this life alone.

I need to be loved,
It's selfish but it's what I crave.
And I need to believe in something,
But I have never been that brave.

I can't say much as I don't know much,
But I can tell you what's on my mind.
I need to love, need to be loved,
But love is not easy to find.

I really like her
but what did I do
there is a small chance
I did not take it

I am scared
I was too scared
now I'm terrified

my friend
her friend
now her boyfriend

She gave him a chance
I was to slow
too scared to love
too ashamed of myself

the emotions inside me
inside me hes confused
inside me hes jealous
inside me is getting out of control
inside me is an angry lion roaring
searching for the true cause why am I angry

but one night I thought about her
and thought about him
i got jealous
emotions burst
I want to scream
the pressure inside is getting stronger
I need help
I need to pray
and I cried

I cried that I made a mistake telling her "I like you"
I was mad that I made a mistake not telling her earlier, "I really like you"

sleepless nights did not help
It only worsen the situation

I guess we cant get everything
but if I can wait
If my heart is still beating to her, for her
maybe Its a chance

now I need to love myself first
my heart is my heart it beats for my body
not for a girl not for anybody
but for me to love others
I need to love myself first

She
she is something more than necessary
a limb? a lung? an extra ounce of blood
pumping through every part of me
aching and wanting more and more
of something that i ever so need.
her touch is enough to ignite a flame
and her kiss is enough to make what
was little left of me bloom.
she lifts up my spirit and
makes me fly higher than anything
in the known universe.
everything about her is beautiful
her fingertips and the way she walks
and her delicacy and the way she
wants me as well.

she is beauty and even
her touch is enough
to ignite my soul
again.
you
folded
me
like
paper
into
cute
little
cranes*

just to keep me in a box to make room for
someone new
