I want my lover to be someone I can trust
Someone who'll makes me smile and laugh out loud
Someone who'll never judge me
Someone who'll always be on my side
Someone even when we fight, sleeps next to my side

I want a lover like me

Yesterday I went to sleep
Dreaming of all the things I could write

And now the pen is in my hand.

But why do my thoughts
refuse to budge

From you

Maybe it is too late
Maybe I'm not cut out to be yours
But I can write
and I can feel
and isn't that important?

I sometimes feel like
I don't know what I want
Which is why I scream at the world
When a simple question would suffice

They speak of families uprooted hearts broken and pizza deliveries canceled

Everyone says I speak nonsense
Sorry
But it's the only language I speak

You love me
So you're afraid of me

But I don't know you
And I don't know love

So I'm going to hurt you
And blame it on your love

I am afraid
Terrified of the future to come

Sometimes I stop
In the middle of the street
Wondering where I'm headed

But as I stand there
I know nothing's going to change
If I don't move forward

So I just wander past
The lights the people the places

And hope for a world
Where I can stop and rest
And not fear for the future
