For two years I studied
For two years I tried so hard
Yet here I am unable to
Even understand
The most basic questions
I did try I really did but
In he end that wasn't good enough

Maybe it was my teachers
Maybe I should have gotten a tutor
How can I get absolutely  
Zero on a French quiz

I can speak it but not read it
That doesn't make any sense
I can ask for the simplest things but not write them

I can't believe it
Granted this isn't my first failure

Don't say another word,
you know what you have me falling for.
your wrapping your words around my heart,
like a weapon in the dark.
I try to look away but those bright blue eyes,
pull me back into your beautiful lies.

You pull me around and bring me back in time.
I remember when you left that morning and didn't return that night.
I would ask you where you been but all you do is stutter.
But for some reason i know your name will be the last word i utter.

I feel like i should leave,
I know every night you go out to drink.
I can't leave you alone,
but i have problems of my own.

Your faithful to me but your not.
You turn your head and then get some off the rocks.
Baby that bottle brings out your worst,
It turns my lullaby in the form of a curse.

That taste that you try to hide on your breath,
I love you but i hate that sour kiss.
We all have demons in all shapes and sizes.
Yours brings pain in the shape of a bottle.

Puppy kisses sweet and meaningful
They are full of love
Never are they brutal
Or harmful
They don't break your heart
They are like sunshine

No judgment shows in their eyes
No hate flows from their mouths
They cuddle you even when you don't want it
They are there when your walls break down
And you can barely gasp for air

Even if you are mad at them
They still make you smile and feel wanted
I do not believe that any human can make you feel
The way a puppy does

Nothing smells like puppy breath
There are no words to describe
The smell at that age
It smells like sunshine on a cloudy day

Tell me I'm pretty
Tell me I'm cute
Tell me I'm beautiful

Yes I know I am none of these things
It is nice to hear though
I will try my best to be
However being pretty is never been of a use to me

Compliments are nice
But they have never been my forte
I don't have the ability to trust where these compliments come from
Because to me being complimented is just another way
To get something I do not posess
