Who would have guessed you would show up again?
Suddenly loving me, content as my friend.
Did you lay there and realize your bed's always bare?
One different decision and I would now be there.
Do you cringe at the thought of his caress instead of yours?
You say he deserves me. You don't know the half.
I cried over you as I sat in his lap.
He wiped the tears, and as I pushed him away.
He said, 'I'm here. We'll make it through okay.'
Would you love me if you had me, even when I cried for him?
I guess you know why I don't choose you then...

Walk the Road

Walk the Road

I Walk the Road,

A road only I can walk.

The road of me.

I slip,
I fall,
but I get up,
I keep walking.

The only thing in this life.
To walk the lonely road.

Nobody knows,
their road ends.

If their road will be harsh,
If their road will be easy,
but it is the only thing we know

The only thing we are given.

Other roads intersects,
then never seen again.
A fading memory,

a dot on the line.

Slowly fading,
as the road edges near.

Must we keep walking our lonely roads?
Must I?
I?

I walk...

I walk...

step by step.

To find the end.

Of this lonely Road.

Dreamer

Have you ever wanted something,
So bad,
That you dream about it every night?
It makes you so happy,
And so sad to think about.
It won't be easy.
The forces that hold you back,
Aren't going to let go.
They're like a brick wall,
But still,
You continue to ****** yourself at them,
Closer to your dream.
Whether I tip-toe closer,
Or I am thrown backwards.
I don't want it,
I need it.
I'm not a wanter,
I'm a dreamer .
*What are you?

The Real You

The Real You

I want to know your inner self.
I see you from a far.
I want to know how you really feel.
Want to know who you are.

On the outside you're fake-happy,
But I know you really aren't.
I want to know you truly.
Want to know what's in your heart.

People say you're rude,
But I know that you're kind.
I really want to know you,
Know what's on your mind.

I really care about you,
And I hope you know.
I really want to see,
The parts that you don't show.

Sometimes

Sometimes,
Turning the page is just what I need.
Sometimes,
It's best to sit back and let others lead.
Sometimes,
Getting lost is really good to do.
And sometimes,
It's best to just start over new.

It's awkward.
Or maybe it's just me.
I don't want you to know.
No, not yet.

Relapses

Often people with addictions face relapses.
Turn around,
To end up right back where they started.
Well I'm not addicted,
But everytime I convince myself not to love you,
I look into your eyes,
And there I am.
Right back at the start.
*If only you felt the same way about me.

I Miss The Summer

I miss the summer.
The hot weather,
The carefree atmosphere.
The smell of flowers,
Mixed with nail polih,
And grilled chicken.

I miss meeting handsome boys who don't speak English,
And watching everyone else kiss him,
Except you.

Though some moments were sad,
Frustrating,
And others were happy,
Carefree,
A cloudless sky,
I miss the summer.

Maybe it's not the events I miss,
Maybe it's not the weather.
I don't miss the season,
Summer.
I miss who I was.

Dancing

I'm losing things,
I'm falling over air.
Forgetting my books,
Forgetting to care.
Getting sick,
From all the rain.
Losing focus,
You're dancing on my brain.

Tomorrow

A lot of things I should've done,
More that I wish I hadn't,
But tomorrow's a new day.
It's never too late to turn the page.
Never too late,
To change your ways.
So put your head up,
And do as you should.
Cause it's a new dawn,
It's new day,
It's a new life,
And I'm feeling good.
