Time will take you, I know
from the memories in my mind
It saddens and relieves me
all at once and at the same time

No right to be there
when they're gone they'll be briefly missed
the pain they once delivered
like venom held within a kiss

Each time they touched me
a little poison ran through my veins
it changed and rearranged me
I wondered if I'd ever feel the same

Coursing through my bloodstream
like a virus in its perfect form
corroding and scarring my insides
leaving parts of me damaged and torn

My body has struggled to recover
defending a self destructive force
It lives within my mind
and inhabits dark corners of my thoughts

I'll try not to miss you
but it's hard to release it completely
I don't know what will fill that space
if you ever really leave me

When I tell you I'm tired
The trouble is my bed
It doesn't seem to fit right
Without the outline of your head

When you tell me you're tired
The trouble is what's said
Typically in times of trouble
Your patience rests instead

When I tell you I'm sorry
The truth is I don't know
My intentions never crooked
Though my weakness always shows

When you tell me you're sorry
The truth is hidden low
You overthrow my worries
Keep tradition and just let go

When I tell you I'm leaving
What I mean is I'm holding on
Staring at the unmarked path
Reluctant to move along

When you tell me you're leaving
What you mean is you've already gone
So far down the crossroads
You can't make right from wrong
We spoke again last night
your sweet lips dripping a heady bouquet
I love you
I miss you
I need you.

You said that when we kissed
the twenty years since our last
melted away
I want you
I need you
I'm sorry

You said that if it could be me
and we could be we
then you would move mountains
to make it so.

I know I should tell you
the lies I tell myself
I'm tired
I'm broken
I'm letting go.

Yet still you play your tune
and I always loved to dance.

Afraid when I see you
a year from now it will not be
the same lover i loved
before he left.

Afraid the drugs
will become the monster
hidden in the closest
and youll have no way
out

Afriad the new life you
have made
is something youd like me
to stay out of

Afriad to know the boy
who left wiping my
tears is now a boy
who just watches my
tears fall

Afraid all that we had
is now a scrap of
old memory left in
the past.

I dance
through the days
with the thoughts
of you.

I can't draw or sing
so I hope everyday that
the curves of the words I write,
the rhythm of the syllables I speak,
will be enough for you
to fall in love with me.

Ohh, you

Ohh, you make me feel so dainty,
Such a gentleman of your part
I love the way you speak through your hand
As it covers your mouth cause you're laughing so hard
Ohh, you make me feel like rain
Such purity in your eyes and that special glance you have
As I wash away all of your worries
You let me breathe again
And rest in your acceptance
You understand what Love means and forgive me if I'm mistaken
Ohh, you make me be a better person
When you teach me how to speak
I surrender with your patience
And your sight stuck on me
Ohh, I love how you make me feel
Knowing you're so shy but with me everything's alright
And when we talk, the world goes slow
And every detail turns into laughter, smiles and joy
Ohh, I love how manly you are
Your habits and your love towards God
Sometimes you make me cry
Because I cannot find someone, who is better for me than you.
