a knight in shining armor
visited me today
he said
**** I'm taking yo girl

Usually I end my days
Looking at photos of you
So my brain knows
What to dream about

haven't seen you in years
why does my mind
keep turning to you
if I'm not even
in love anymore

like parallel lines
                  
                                        we'll never meet

your voice is like
honey to my ears
too bad it sounds
a lot like goodbye

after we parted ways
I realized that sometimes
an end is just an end
not a new beginning

I'm still unsure
if what I'm feeling for you
is love
but I like this feeling
a lot

your cheeks
lift just a little bit
when you smile
showing your front teeth
that are far too big
for your small face
it's so cute
it melts my heart
so please smile a lot
even if your smiles aren't for me
they still make my cheeks lift
just a little bit

I like looking at your face
It makes my days brighter
It's a risky business though
Would be weird if you noticed me
Staring at you every other minute
I wouldn't want to scare you
So I try not to look
But I fail
I fail every time
Your face is just too pretty

You are still so young
But you have lived through so much
To cope with it all
And still be alive
You must be strong
I wish you didn't have to be this strong
I wish you had someone
Who could just be
Be there with you
Whenever you feel weak
Be your strength when life is too hard
Hug you when you cry
Give you ice cream when you are sad
And love you for who you are
Not loathe you for what you cannot be
I wish you had someone
Because it cannot be me

I like everything about you
From the way you look
To the way you talk
But if you don't
Then it is okay to say no
I won't mind being alone
As long as it's what you prefer
True love isn't jealousy
Of who you meet instead of me
True love is acceptance
Of the way you want to live
And if that way doesn't include me
I don't mind
As long as you're happy and free
