Your yellow hair is like
The sunlight
However sweet it shines
Bit by the cold of December
I’m warm beside your smile
Oh lady, tell me I’m not leavin’
You’re everything I dream
I’m killin’ myself thinkin’
I’ve fallen like the leaves

Given the circumstances
We only exchange glances
We’d hold a stare and exchange rings
If only our love grew velvet wings
But you say what I’d say
If only in the way
Never does one make you laugh and smile
The way I do, loving you all the while
I have no idea why you run
If only I had one

If only...

Please,
Take me by storm
**** me by hand,
Just not over the phone
The silence is much too much

Please,
Take me by surprise
Respond to me once,
And I’ll be so happy
It’s all I really want

Please,
Take me by the hand
Show me what you want,
The things you love
And what you adore

Please,
Take me by storm,
Take me by the hand,
Take me by surprise
Just please, take me if you can

Take me far away with you
Because I am done with this land

Scarcely,
I see what I hope to see

Loudly,
I want to yell your name

Yieldingly,
I elect not to do so

Instantly,
I sink into the depths

Regrettably,
I take the foolish risks

Incessantly,
I continue to hang onto this

Slowly,
I will wither and blow away

Like the pedals of the flower
Yes, I wither and blow away
Like the beauty of nature itself
My sadness is here to stay

Why should I
Wait for tomorrow?

Listen to me:

The more you see
The less I’m me
The worse you think
The further you sink
You’re captured inside
Your needing to hide
Don’t slip through your skin
To the depression within

If you can trust what you know
We can both fight this foe
And if you do know me
Then happier, we’ll be
But now, you must be brave
And not fear what I gave
You must listen once more:
Something wonderful is in store

She spoke at once
From inside her car
Looked at me slyly
Proceeded normally
She spoke once more
Talked of old times
Talked of future endeavors
Proceeded normally
She spoke at last

And then never again...
