If we are puppets,
Then sleepiness
Is a dangerous
Puppeteer.

He creeps up on you
And hijacks your
Mind and body

Your eyes are closing
Your body feels heavy
Your head may drop off
Anytime

Your shoulders are drooping
Your feet are weary
Your back supports you
No more

Your head is swaying
Your body is aching
Oh how you wish you were
In bed

You can’t hear properly
You can’t speak properly
You don’t care
Anymore...

                                                                ­                 ...he whispers in your ear
And this is when
Sleepiness
Slips you onto
His puppet strings
And starts to sway
Your bearings

One, two
One, two
You plod on

Left, right
Left, right
Your vision starts to spin

You can’t hear properly
You can’t speak properly
You don’t care
Anymore...

                                                                ­                 ...he whispers in your ear
Continuing on
Your way
You know what you’re doing
But yet, don’t notice
Anything
Around you

Until that loud beep
Jolts you from your sleep
And brings you out of
The puppeteer's spell

The puppet strings
Are broken
And you are left
To face reality
The fact that you could've                                        should've
Died


You can’t hear properly
You can’t speak properly
You don’t care
Anymore...

                                                                ­                 ...he whispers in your ear
And this is why I need more than 6 hours of sleep...
Dear cheater:

Please don't hurt my girl.
Don't break her heart,
don't make her cry.
Don't **** her like last time,
feel like she's died.
Don't make promises,
that you can't keep.
That will make my lovely
begin to weep.
Don't use your charm,
to reel her in.
Or act like she, is all you've been;
waiting for to have your heart.
And as she begins to feel the start;
of a love brand new,
where you have changed;
change your mind
and leave her in pain.
All I ask is that you love her right.
That you let her win all your fights,
and hold her tight through out the night.
Because I've seen what she's  been through.
What she's been through with you.
So if you don't love her,
cut her loose.
And the next girl you catch..
Don't abuse.
I've known for a few weeks now.. My shoulders tensed up and boom. All the signs were there. I know I haven't been good to you in the past, and it hurts me to know that you don't even feel comfortable enough to trust me with this. But I completely understand why. I know how I am and how I've acted. But tonight on my way home, I had a bit of a talk with God. I didn't ask him but one thing and I pray he sees me through. I never want you hurt and I hope you know that. I can't be the one to try to guard your heart.. It doesn't work like that and I'm sorry for the past. You know what you are getting yourself into and if you are okay with that, than I am too. I meant it when I said I support any of your decisions. I just want you to be happy and never have your heart broken. Ever. You deserve the world and i prayed so hard thats what you're given. So beautiful girl... If this is what makes you happy, then **** him with that smile. Always- K
