Way 1.
I live
in a dream.
I die
in your arms.
I lay
in pain.
Only when I can't breathe,
I see you.
Trying to call out your name,
I want to be
with you
but happy.

Way 2.
I live
only when I can't breathe.
In a dream
I see you.
I die
trying to call out your name.
In your arms
I want to be.
I lay
with you,
in pain
but happy.

Way 1.
In your eyes
I am
a shadow.
I live
without reason.
You see nothing.
A blank space
that passes you by on the way
to die.
There is nothing left.

Way 2.
In your eyes
you see nothing.
I am
A blank space.
A shadow
That passes you by on the way.
I live
to die.
Without reason
there is nothing left.
Two way poem that leads to the same conclusion.

Special in winter,
particular' you and I,
intertwined perfect.
Hidden message: Spirit.

Little misfortune.          
Often alone and dreadful.
Nothing but lonely.
Hidden message: Lonely.

Shining in your eyes.
Sparkling forever so bright.
On this moon lit night.

This really isn't
fair to you. I shouldn't make you
go, you don't have to.

Stay here all night long.
In my arms I'll embrace you.
Holding you so tight.

Hey girl in the classroom, who was sitting across the table, staring in my eyes.
Seeing past my disguise.
Talking with you was my prize.
If only I hadn't had so much doubt.
I would've asked you out.
If I had just known how.

I was too young, too dumb to understand just how much you meant to me.
Wish I could've done more for you.
Always saw you looking blue.

I still remember that first day.
You showed me the way.
You let me in.
I'm here now wondering how you been.
I didn't love you then.
But it didn't take long.
Is that wrong?

Had to get this weight off my shoulder.
Maybe we can see each other again when we are older.
I had a dream about you sitting across that table staring at me.
Nothing on my mind.
Although I think about you all the time.

I sometimes have long sleepless nights.
Is that you thinking of me?
Or just what I want it to be?
Wish I had only just asked you out.
If only I had no doubt.
