You are waning and I am waxing
You are nino and I was nina
I am a smile and you are a frown
Your going up and I'm going down

When did we change direction?

we were an equal sign
we were a kiss
we were a lit match

and now our paths diverge

My head was so far in the clouds I forgot to look down.
               But my dream is over, it's time to come back now.

You'll never know what I knew
Like my new found appreciation for only your tattoos

You'll never see what I've seen
like how the halo of your eyes are the same color as me

You'll never feel what I felt
How the warmth of your embarrass causes me to melt

You'll never hear what I've heard
The echoes from your laugh and the passion in your murmurs  

You'll never cry the way I've cried
From the pits of my stomach, the burning inside when you said goodbye

I never feel compelled to write when things are well.

Only when I'm being dragged though hell.

The fights and tears...we're always clashing.

The kisses and love...I'd rather have passion .

One day you'll love yourself like I loved you,
I wish I could wait for that but I refuse.

I don't know what we are, but I know what we aren't.

We aren't the type to go against the current.

In this moment I don't know if you want me here.

I wish you would tell me and save the despair.

My fear was never being alone, it was being in bad company...with someone who's luke warm and doesn't want me.

The more love he showered me with the more afraid I was that he'd rinse me of my shield.

And in fact he did, he cleansed away so much of me that I began to pour...

I was open, all of me had flown out into him, I didn't even realize he was drowning.

You're unsure and I am too.
How will this all end, will I still love you?
Will you be there when it's hard, how can I trust you.
I have everything to lose I have so much to prove.
We've done a lot of things wrong, but we can fix them if we go along.

I love you
