I long to be the clock
That you look at with longing
When you want class to be over

I long to be your paper
That you spill with trust
Every thought in your head

I long to be your water
That you drink with a need
For I want you to need me to live

I long to be your blanket
That wraps you up all snug
When your cold and could use a hug

I really just long for you
With such an insane strength
That I don't want to live without you.

His eyes used to stare at me with wonder.
For I was a mystery to him.
His hands used to trace my skin with delicacy.
For I was as fragile as glass to him.
His arms used to wrap around, never letting go.
For I was a prize he never wanted to lose.

Then things changed.

His eyes knew me and stared with need.
For he knew what was underneath.
His hands got rough and stronger than normal.
For he knew what I could handle.
His arms let me go, no longer keeping me close.
For he knew I'd always be his, I'd never go.

Staring at a piece of paper
The lines start going wavy
They blur and become a mess
It kind of reminds me
Of my head
It's all so perfect
Like the lines
But once I start to think
My thoughts walk to the edge
Jumping head first into the brink
A never ending pit
Of thoughts I wish I could forget
Of ones I want to go away
Because they bring down my day
So then everything feels worse
And I feel like life's a curse.

How can one day
Things feel so perfect
But the next
It's all torn away
Perfection is lost
Left in the wake of a storm
Everything so different
From the norm
It makes no sense
But I'm trying my best
Yet I'm still falling
Always have, always will
No matter who I'm calling
They don't hear my panicked voice
Can't hear me through the noise
Of the overbearing world
When I'm only just one girl.

A glitch in reality
Between the world
That you and I see
Like the skip of your heart
When something goes wrong
And it splits apart
Life becomes different
We call it a change
Whether or not we want it
It's the way of the game
Be it good or bad
It affects our feelings
Mad sad or glad
Maybe all wrapped into one
Makes you feel like you've lost
But really you've won
Cause as long as you feel
It means you're alive
No matter how much
You are wanting to die
(m.p)

I want to fall in love
Sitting in a booth
Over a steaming cup of coffee
Thinking back on my youth
I want to look up
And see a pair of eyes
Eyes so beautiful
Angels start to cry
You'd smile back noticing
How alone I'd be sitting
And make your way over
You'd start by telling me your life
And some lucky 4-leaf clover
You'd say you'd found that day
"Oh" would be all I could say
For I'd be bewitched by you
(You'd be bewitched by me too)
Your voice would be smooth
Your touch would be strong
Eyes never having seen any wrong
It'd be like I was entranced
By a never ending song
And into your love I'd be strung along
(m.p.)
