Hide and Go for a Ride
Caitlin Spruell Mar 2013
My heart is aching
My head is breaking

Something I can't shake
It tears at my soul
forcing me awake
my heart you can't take

I won't run
but you can't hide
for now just enjoy
the ride

The Hourglass
Caitlin Spruell Nov 2012
Sands of time slipping
time keeps ticking
on
and
on again

Falling down through the hourglass
time is racing, running, barreling
towards me
no escape

It hits me
time stands still
and I am in your arms
for the last time
ever

Scientific Love
Caitlin Spruell Jun 2011
I love your
laugh, smile, and heart.
The way you
dissect my love apart

Chemicals reacting,
particles impacting,
magnets attracting

It's elementary
can't you see
you're doing this
to me

It's as if you engineered
a scientific love

Love
Caitlin Spruell Feb 2011
Love is
reluctant to find me

It eludes me
for years at a time

When I find it
it's plucked form me,
without warning it's gone

And now
I think I've found it
with you

And it's here to stay

Questions for Him
Caitlin Spruell Nov 2010
You laugh
While I cry
Do you know
How much it hurts?

To have
Someone laugh
At the thought of
Being you

Why do you
Laugh so
Am I really that repulsive
To you?

Why do you
Hate me enough
To make me hurt?
