The music constantly plays
in my head
with lyrics that
explains why
I love  you
need you
and want you so bad.
When I cant see why
I am with you
all I have to do
is listen to
the lyrics inside my head
and then I
feel close to you.
I am free, I am free
You cannot hold on to me
I'll fly away, I'll fly away
Just you see
I'll be so far, I'll be so far
Since you left my cage ajar
I'll stretch my wings, I'll stretch my wings
No longer bound by any strings
I stand alone upon a hill

staring at the clouds so still.

The wind blows my hair across my face

but still i look for you without a trace.

I close my eyes and there you are

and the pain and emptiness are gone.

I hear your laugh and see your smile

the two main things that drove me wild.

I feel your warm embrace

and once again I leave time and space.

I feel your lips pressed against mine

forever being a part of our time.

I open my eyes but you're still gone

and the tears come out 8 miles long.

Yet i still stand upon this hill

waiting for my heart to fill.

i close my eyes and once again

our memories come crashing in.

Forever feelings of joy and love

the main thing every girl dreams of.

I open my eyes expecting a change

yet everything remains the same.

The sun then goes on it's merry way

leaving me alone for another day.

And even though you're miles away

forever waiting on this hill I'll stay.
your ever changing emotions
are just one part of this relationship
that confuse me so.

you say that we should wait until i'm over him
but
we have a relationship now
just without the label.

you don't know what you want
but i do
you have us confused.

al i want is to be with you
in the simplest sense of the phrase
but
you want to make things complicated.

you make my brain hurt
i don't know why i want you
but
i do never the less.
“repeat that, repeat,”
fidget, wait, an anxious still face, deep-eyes, unbelievably
now,
with a breath, another breath, I’m unbounding
my edges stretching and expanding from the fence that kept me, always
always – all ways – you:
the whole world is aflame at a glimpse at a sight of your backturned face.
inspired by Hopkin's poem "Repeat that, Repeat"
Follow the formula right here in this old book,
you you might just be mistook,
for a fool with a mane
and a tongue with no old sayin'
