one of many things I shouldn't do
is lie awake and think of you
because do you think of me so?
I'm guessing your answer
is probably no
I will try and blur you out
it will be hard without a doubt
try to leave my thoughts alone
I want to be all on my own

old books are beautiful
in a funny way
tea stained pages
and musty smell
they are the kind of books
you could never sell
they contain too much history
and too much mystery
so they stay on your bookshelf
as years pass by
gathering dust as they lie
waiting
and waiting
for you to pick it up from it's den
and experience that feeling
all over again

there are lots of things
I shouldn't do
and one of them
is fall in love with you
so I must pretend you don't exist
to stop the scars forming on my wrist
please don't be offended
if you don't see me for a while
I'm sorry but I can't look at you
or your beautiful smile
but if you see my eyes light up
know that it is not because I saw you coming
because that would only
send me running
now you may find
I don't talk to you
but that doesn't mean
I don't see what you do
I would only die if I heard your voice
and that is not something I want by choice
there is one more thing I cannot do
and that is
fall in love with you

I sit on the wall and watch the shore
and suddenly it doesn't seem so bad
anymore
the idea of not existing
and floating far away
so that is what I will do
on this lovely fine day
the waves will carry me away
far out to sea
past the fishing boats and ships
and I will think of you and me
and how we used to be
then i will look
up to the sky
and whisper
goodbye
(I know this is similar to one i wrote before, I just can't stop writing about oceans)

would you care if my mind stopped thinking?
would you care if my lips stopped moving?
would you care if my eyes stopped opening?
if my heart stopped beating?

would you care if I was here no more?
I know I would care for you
but the worst thing is,
I do not think you would care for me too.

from the shore I watch the waves
crash and roll and break
and I cannot help but think
how lovely it all seems
to let the waves crash over me
and forget all my dreams
so I will swim
and swim
and swim
until there is no shore
and let the waves engulf me
until I can feel
no more

— The End —
