I know just what you are
I met you when I first touched a flame

You're a bump in the road,
a chapter of a novel,
a map to treasure;

You are a lesson I have to learn
You are the path I have to take

What's it they always say?
Regardless of the pain
"It's for the better"

Blood on the ground
I need to rebound

Blood I remember
Frozen in December

Blood on the street
Don't let this repeat

Blood on my knee
I miss the old me

Blood has gone dry
There's no need to cry

Blood has turned blue
Reborn, I'm brand new

Before,
I knew how to speak in Spanish
Then, before I knew it,
I almost forgot

Before,
I knew how to give you my love
Then, before I knew it,
That knowledge was lost

Before,
I knew how to laugh at the jokes
Then, before I knew it,
The joke was on me

[2019 edit:
Before,
I knew what the world was about
Then, before I knew it,
It wasn't so easy]

Seeking Relationship Profile

*I am a unique color.
There's not one
like it anywhere in this world.
I suppose you would need
to meet me to see if it was
the exact hue you needed.
In a perfect world there is
someone out there who does.
I am looking for compatibility.
where my color compliments yours.
There must be an artist
who needs exactly my color
to complete their
perfect painting.
