I could tell you a million times
Of what was on my mind
And a million times
Ive failed to unwind

So now I can find
Myself constantly bellowing
At the thought of you coming to mind

Did it ever occur to you
That there was more than meets the eye
And when you said you couldn't wait
Everything between us would die

Like flakes falling from the sky
Melting before they hit the ground
It's no longer important cause I'm not your guy

Now this is a simple prose
To say how I feel
Because we **** well know
How long I could go

Crawling around
Finding every last letter to every last word
So you can feel my every last hurt

Now this is a simple prose
To say what you have done
I have come to terms with those
But whats done is done

Oh how can we know
What we could have been
Or what lies further below

What is this I'm feeling?
Cause its making me feel ill
I think someone's missing
So I search on for what can fill
All this empty space

Maybe a certain pill
Or a new kind face
Perhaps a proficient skill
Along with a purposeful place

But I'm lost in this labyrinth
With walls made
Of cold dark absence

And where there is no other side
To reach and survive this abyss

I'm lost inside

Beneath the Schunnemunk canopy
Wandering thoughts pay no attention to future fate
Through the foliage I fail to see
The cold knife that awaits thee
Subtly waiting for trust displayed
Her love for me by my side it lay
Now in my back a sunken blade
Startled eyes it cannot be

Stirred and mixed my mind lays
Upon thy laurels betwixt malaise
And within a maze a solution strayed

Whilst I search for an answer
Can you take my heart for a while
or at least until I can calculate
What on Earth will keep my smile

Flush with the forest floor
You come to my need
Surrounded by beauty and lore
Here to settle the score
In a handkerchief of yours
Wrapped up, a heart sent to me

Please do not scorn
For I have just been born
I've got twenty years under my belt?
*******, I'm not a kid anymore

Got strings on my guitar
Got fingers on my hands
My tunes vibrate
Lost in the submarine sands

I strum away
And pick all day
Them vibrations tremble and wither to decay
None of my love is heard

Oh babe don't say another word
With your eyes fixed on the rock standing out
In your ocean of doubt

Oh you can't hear my shouts
But his every whisper finds your ears
David Waters Apr 2013
I woke up this morning
You entered my mind
Before I could open my eyes
Strung by a kite
To help **** the lies
My vision is fading
My hope is draining
Never stood a chance
To face the day the whole way through

Then I thought of you
And my love grew
Heart in hand
I came to your door
I need some love
I need some more

But you've been showering
In the lavender haze
With some other man
So I turn my back
And carried myself home
Crawled into bed alone
Shut my eyes and I rue
That I fall asleep
Still thinking of you
David Waters Jan 2013
I cant be the only one
That tells you that you're beautiful
Is it more meaningful
When my tongue is tied
And my mouth is full
With all the love I have for you
I mix the words like chemicals in a lab
Come up with something like
