In my head
There's an image of you
But I'm sure it does you
Absolutely no justice
Case closed.

I have to ask
If you realize the quantum
Of things I'm thinking on a regular basis

If you knew my thoughts
I think you'd be scared to learn
What it is that I see
When I shut my eyes at night

We're all lost souls
Following in a line,
To cover all the holes
That we have left behind...

The dust that bites our necks
Pushes us to win,
Making us regret
The times we didn't sin.

Clothed in light
Carrying pistols of tear
We are not bright;
But rather, made of fear.

So greet us if you dare
Climb with us up high
Sing and writhe and stare
As we fade into the night....

Just because I listen
To digital cello music Monday's
Space rock Tuesday's
Country hoedown Wednesday's
Emotive rap Thursday's
Classical pieces Friday's
And metal on Saturdays
Doesn't mean Sunday
Has to be a day
Of rest

And I'll tell you
Who you really are
To me

If you were any less intriguing
I'd be able to tell you
Why you draw me

It's not that I'm making a rash statement of love
-aren't those usually too hasty anyways?-
But I have to ask if there's a possibility
If you have slightly begun to feel
The connection that I can feel
Inside your amazing self
Too?

There are those times when certainty comes easy.
Why have they fled
The panting hands of my clock
That are sprinting to catch up
With them?

That black and white circle is like
A racetrack from hell,
One no one can ever escape
And a race one can never win.

So how is it
That we find the strength
To keep on running?

Can I please
Take the liberty
Of ringing your bell
Once
More

Ask me
And I'll tell you
I need the life
Stored within the parting
Of your lips
That I've never seen

Help me

A pure brick of gold
The head of a dragon
The tooth of a basilisk
The horn of a unicorn
A thousand dowries
A kingdom of glass
A golden paved highway
Some Picasso art
Is it simply ludacris
That all I want is your heart?

"If I die, let me die
Let him live....."
What else could I do
In a relationship
How was I to know
The output would
Exceed my input?
