God is made in my image
A man full of fear
Grimacing as my looks diminish
The one I see in the mirror
God is made in my image
A skittish sinning queer
Swimming in a sea of despair
Shaking behind this veneer
God is made in my image
A fine vintage of yesteryear
Winning a high percentage
Pillaging villages on this sphere

Some would say you’re toxic
Some would say you‘re sorry
I say you are perfectly wrong for me

I hate you, I love you
No way to run away, come always back to you
You are perfectly wrong for me

Everyone is against it
Against us, against you
I see why, but I can‘t help it
You are perfectly wrong for me

Everytime you **** up
I‘m there, I forgive you
I know you, like no one else does
You know me, like no one else does
We can‘t run away from each other
Sometimes I wish I could  
Because
You are perfectly wrong for me

Everything inside me screams that I should text you
My head says no
I should ignore you like you ignored me
But this can‘t be the way

We‘re going back and forth
going in circles
With Neither of us wanting to commit or to end things
Because
We are perfectly wrong for each other

I am happy
I really am
I smile and I laugh
But sometimes
I cry and I scream
Sometimes
I am sad

Life couldn’t be more great right now
I have the best friends that love me with all their heart
And I love them, truly
But sometimes
I don’t see that,
Sometimes
I think I am invisible, not important at all

I respect my body
I accept myself how I couldn’t for a long time
But sometimes
I doubt myself
Sometimes
All I see are my flaws, all my imperfections

I am happy without a relationship
I am happy with life how it is right now
I am ok with being alone, alone not lonely
But sometimes
I wish it would be different
Sometimes
I wish someone would love me, wish that someone would choose me

Because sometimes
I feel lonely
Like I am alone in this world
Like no one cares for me
Like it doesn’t matter if I‘m there or not
Sometimes
I am not happy
But that’s ok

perhaps more a tempest at heart
raging against the shapes
I have become
whittled away to something
I am not
She was winning!
She had the poor sod
on his knees,
one more tongue lashing
and this nemesis
would be vanquished!
Only...
he really wasn't
her enemy at all,
but in truth,
her most beloved.
This raging battle
had so swiftly
mushroomed
from such an innocuous start
your head would spin
(like a top).

A passing observation
fueling outright war,
but he valiantly waved
the white flag of surrender.
Suddenly victory
was not so sweet to her,
thus with sword drawn
and poised at his throat,
she called a truce,
and confessed, "forgive me, my darling,
I was wrong."
Pardoned she was,
and peace ensued.
One lovable turncoat,
she traded in her uniform
to became a cowgirl instead
(like on top).
Admitting your mistakes is a strength, not a weakness.
The answers never come
We die not every knowing
Impossible the dreams
And they don't come true

But i keep on trying
Postcards in the mail
Walks along the beach
Memories of you

            Brown. Purple.
            Yellow. Blue.
O!
I have been a fool
But I love Sophia
O my secret love
I would love to be ya!

Where am I
when you're
not here
but lost
in empty space,
wishing the time
would just
run, run away
then stop
dead still
to catch
it's breath
as soon as
I saw
your face.
