"I don't want to be perfect. I want to be your perfect."

I'm just waiting for the day
when I hear your name
and I picture
the country you're named for
before I picture
you.

you always could
     make my lips hungry
     and my fingers loving

and now the mere thought of seeing you
     makes my hands shake
     and my bones ache

i don't think this is a good idea
i don't think this is a good idea
                              -(seeing him in ten days)

You held on to me so tight that night. So why'd you let me go?

They can take away the songs I wrote and the story they told
They can take away the summer nights when I only had your hand to hold
They can take away the sun and the moon above
They can take away the place of our first kiss
They can take away all or any of this

But they can't take away the way you looked at me
They can't take away what I close my eyes to see
They can't take away what I know to be true
They can't take away my memory of you

It would have been six months today, if you had stayed.

I don't wish at 11:11 anymore, he took that from me.
