My favorite landmark
That wooden star
The perfect place to be who we are
As the trembling bus passes
On the beautiful path
Left at the entrance
Our fear and our wrath
We haven't a worry
We need not to stress
Of all places on earth
This here place is the best
Camp slowly approaches and I'm excited to be myself again!

You asked if I think about you
You asked what I thought about you
You asked when I think about you

I told you the truth
I said all the time
I said I thought you were perfect
I said when I go to sleep at night

I think of you at night
And at 3 in the morning
I think of you at the anniversary of that time
When you held my hand
And for a minute
You were mine.

But what I never told you
Was that I loved you
And maybe I should've told you
A long time ago
So... this clearly doesn't rhyme. Should I stick with the rhyming poems and those with a pattern? Because this one is just... sorta raw.

He holds me in a cage
Seals it with a lock
Leaves me there to wait
Staring at a clock.
He displays his endless love
The love he has for another
But still leaves me to wait
Believing we love each other
But this is one ended love
His feelings aren't real
Holding me in solitary confinement
Feeding off what I feel

If I could reach 600 miles
Reel you in and see your smiles
I'd reach out toward you, miles and miles away
And pull you in close to me and say:
"I would reach 600 miles
To have you here with me."

"All is fair in love and war"
But nothing is fair in life anymore
If this is love then the saying's untrue
Because it's so unfair that I'm stuck loving you
Someone please make it stop.

Tugging on a rope with no visible end,
Playing this stupid game like children, like friends.
You're pulling me into a puddle of mud,
Making me believe that this flower might bud.
The burns are incurable, the rash from the rope,
The burns on the hands that once held some hope.
But the hope has gone and I have gone numb,
Fell into your trap, I have been so dumb.
I want to escape, don't wanna play anymore
But still I hold on, in this love tug of war

Give me an explanation
But don't tell me how I feel
Tell me that you love me
I already know what's real
Tell me who you are
I know who I am
You try and try to get it
But you'll never understand
I don't need someone
To give me definitions
As I travel along
On this crooked expedition
