You look so pretty when you're talking to me,
and just for a second, I want to see what you see.
'Cause if you saw yourself in the way that I do,
you'd realize your worth-
and maybe I'd realize mine too

So easy for you being done with me
Tears cried for your name
Things begin looking up for a bit
They always end the same
That doesn't make much sense to me
Spin circles round and round
Scream at the top of my lungs that I love you
Your ears just ignore the sound
Like trapped inside a transparent box
Too incompetent to escape
Hands are bound with ropes
My mouth is covered in tape
To make peace with you is all I desire
Understand irrational fears
On surface situation is black-and-white
Beneath layers more complex than it appears

These fleeting moments spent together
More valuable than diamonds or gold
Carrying dreams
Never felt more awake
My words paint stories never told

Play mental movies in mind
You are nowhere to be found
In stillness my universe freezes
World may still be spinning around

You gaze my direction and nerves start tingling
Here I am somehow paralyzed
Harmony a little closer to my grasp
In wisdom you emphasize

When I feel us connect tissue
All my doubts fade away
Causing my anxiety to cease
As seconds go and stay

Like tall grass rustling in breeze
Make my molecules tremble
Soft morning bringing new opportunity
Steady beating of pulses united dissemble

Still anticipating wandering blood droplets
Of heart to hurry back to their route
You are so precious they long to be near
Throughout body slipping trying to get out

With every passing week I grow more attached
Gentle guidance smoothing edges hard
I'll care for you as long as you allow
As quiet comfort blooms in kind regard

You will read this and I just want you to know
Each sentence drowns in sincerity
Keep waiting for me to improve my flaws
I'm aware my actions disappoint you constantly

There is more devotion in my eyes than you realize
Dancing on edge of potential sought
Image takes up so much room in my brain
No space left to fill with any other thought

Why can’t I escape you?
You’re always close, it seems,
A shadow in the stillness,
A whisper in my dreams.
I try to leave, to heal,
But you’re there in the quiet,
A piece of me I lost,
A weight I can’t deny it.

Your heart, bleeding red like a setting sun.
Mine, dyed in your deepest blue.
Like an avalanche, your sorrows descend upon me.
But Its ok.
I would rather be buried under your sorrows than
let you go.
