Matt, why didn't you talk to someone?
Why didn't tell a friend how you were feeling?
You could have let out all the sadness
You could have stayed, you could still be here

Matt, your mom is broken
She cries a lot
She wonders about you
She misses you
I miss you

Matt, your little brother is struggling
He doesn't smile as much
And his eyes tell you that he's seen too much
Ryan needs you

*Matt, I need you
Why did you have to go?

If I close
my eyes I can
still feel your lips
upon my skin

She fell in love too easily
And far too often
When all she wanted
Was someone to look at her
And tell her that she had a beautiful heart
Alvira Perdita Oct 2014
You're beautiful,
and perfect,
and absolutely
wonderful
and I feel like
some of you need
to be reminded
Alvira Perdita Sep 2014
You told me that
You love me and
I got scared because
The last person who
Said that to me broke
Me in to tiny pieces
And so I responded
To you by pushing
You far away
And I'm sorry

Tick tock
The clock on the wall is mocking me
Telling me that I'm wasting time
Making it known that I could do so much more

Tick tock
The clock on the wall is laughing at me
Telling me that my life is wasting away
Making it known that everything I love is gone

Tick tock
The clock on the wall is at my feet
Telling me that my anger is misdirected
Making it known that whatever I do is worthless

Tick tock
The clock is in pieces
Telling me that my life is over
As my feet hang limply
