When they come for me, don't make a sound.
Don't try to keep them away, don't lead them around.
Let them take me, I'll be alright,
just hide somewhere and watch from the height.

When they come for me, let them be.
I know it hurts but I don't want you to see
the way my heart hurts and my skin burns
and how the world around me starts to turn.

When they come for me, just stay away.
I know everything looks bad and gray
but after the rain comes the sun
and the world once again turns into fun.

When they come for me, I hope you'll know
how much I love you and your glow
that can make my hear swell with pride
because I know you're always by my side.

When they come for me, I won't be sad
Because I'm happy for all that I had.
The love that we shared kept me from becoming mad
so when they come for me, it won't be that bad.

Sometimes,
when you look close enough,
you can find tears in the eyes of your heroes.

Head phones in
Drama out
You don't need
All this doubt
Shut your eyes
It's okay to cry

Did you know it would be so fast for me to love you?
Not fall in love, because there's no rush,
But the lush crushing that I trust,
That tells my gut,
As a complete Human,
You are more than enough?

Yes, when I see you
Bopping along to our favorite songs,
Biking Mission Bay,
Reveling the day,
No tracking of time to relay
Which direction we shall sway...

I know You are showing I,
Who You are Inside,
We are like reflections in our eyes -
I see I in You, and You in I,
It almost makes me feel most alive.
We're Spirituals, undeprived.

Everything you say is Poetry & Comedy,
You bring roaring laughs out of me,
And giggly coos, such feelings you ruse,
Admiration, Respect, Joy, Entertainment ensues.

You may think it rash,
Or rather uncouth
For me to say that
"I love you";
Take it from me,
Before I plant the seeds,
I challenged it too -
But simple love for all that is You -
I could not refute.

And so, I told myself first,
And now I tell you...

I love you.

Just to clear the air.
From one lovely individual to another.

The system is flawed
Suicidal kids together
Make up our population

Too early to be awake
Minds are blank, eyes wander
Just a shitload of ***** teens
summer clings to me like the lingering warmth of a particularly good hug
