I know that I'm awake
But I'm dreaming all the same.
My mind twisted in thoughts
It's one thing to say that
"Everything will be okay"
and sometimes those words
Just aren't enough to say.

Things can get so rough, I know.
I just need to be strong
To find something to hold onto
As hours slip away.
For me to regain happiness
Would take years to accomplish.

I struggle to describe in sentences,
Of how you make this easier for me
But I'm at a lost for words ...

Excitement - you just can't hide it,
Just one night, just one time.
It's all in the fun of the thrill.
And we just want to get off

No commitment - it's just one night,
No further contact, no relationship.
Both strangers, no name basis.
I want to get off, take it all off.

To live in the thrill - without consequence,
You don't have to disagree, I wont push.
We don't have to go all the way,
I just want a ******.

I don't steal - but I'm greedy,
I'll take until nothing is left.

I saw you from across the room,
Hips swaying, pumping to the beat.
I watched from afar, as you bite your lip
Cause you know everyone is watching
                           -captivating...

I stare because I can't touch,
As your clothes drop to the lit floor.
You're exposing yourself,
Willingly, you have no shame.
                           -shameless...

This is what you're paid for,
A masters degree gone to waste,
As you become the candy
Of every man's eye.
                          *-wasteful...

Will you leave me, love?
Say no, say no
Save me from grief
Of my love's departure
Don't let me shed a tear
Say no, say no
To loving another, dear
Don't be the knife in my heart
Cutting away, slowly and unjust
Will you leave me, love?
Say no, say no
For my life is worthless,
Without your arms around me
And your warm breath on my skin
Say no, say no
To loving another, dear
For my brittle heart can't take it
Not another word, not another lie
I'll grieve until you return
My unfaithful butterfly...

Will you leave me, love?
Say no, say no
Save me from sadness
Of your untrue love
Don't let me shed a tear
Say no, say no
To loving another, dear
Don't pierce my soul with lies
Ripping, quickly and cruel
Wil you leave me, love?
Say no, say no
For my world is crushed
Without you by my side
You fingers intertwined with mine
Say no, say no
To loving another dear
For my fragile heart is still broken
Don't speak a word, another lie
I'll always be your's
My devoted dragonfly...

Say yes, say yes
To being together,
Forever and a day
Don't fret the lies that people
May spread amongst themselves
For I shall always be your servant
Your lover at least,
Forever and a day
My heart will always beat for you
And I shall remain by your side

I have a feeling you don't exist
Distance makes it easier to believe
I know you can be touched,
But I know that I cannot feel

I'm numb, inside out
Everything looks the same to me
Colors of the rainbow merge
and turn all the shades of gray

Laying, unmoving, staring
I watch stars as my mind races
Knowing that I'm not dreaming
I feel your presence within

You're consistantly on my mind
I know giving up isn't an option
All I've wanted to say is
I love you and I'm not afraid

But you're too far away to hear
Though I tell you in the depths
Of my sorrowed mind.
I feel like I'm dying

A ice cold hand has it's bitter grip
On my slow beating heart
It's chained without links
What's wrong with me?

Like an angel without wings
I feel trapped

Dull, it seems to have a beat of its own
Lacking life, emotion, it tears me apart
Uncurable by any pills

Intense, it keeps me awake
Jabbing pains, needle-like
I can feel it behind my eyes

Reaccuring, it's never gone for long
A few seconds relief, barely savored
It never ends
Faith Melton Oct 2011
I'm all for the truth
Even if it hurts
I prefer the pain of honesty,
Not the pleasure of lies
If you hate me,
Can't you just say you do
Can you just let me go?
Staying here is burning me alive
I want freedom, to be apart from you
You're my keyless locks, chaining me down
Guitless, you ravage, my life, my sanity
Leave me be, it's only distruction you're causing
I'm almost done trying, I just don't want
To give up.
Just let me go
