You will and you won’t
You do but you don’t
I can’t ever read your mind
In a sense, I’ve given up

With your twists and your turns
Your fire that burns
I cannot just watch you sitting there,
You’ve got me concerned

Just say the word
And I’ll be there for you
Wherever it is you are
I’ll meet you on the rooftops
Gazing at stars

You’ve touched my heart
Put at ease my poor soul
You do what you want to do
You’re out of control

What makes me love you
The way that I do?
You hurt me with your words, girl
Don’t deny it, it’s true

Nothing seems as memorable
As the day we last met
I spilled my drink on your dress
That every day I regret

You enter, then leave
Without saying a word
Not a “hi” or “how are you”
And act as if you haven’t heard

Whatever the future holds
Long after I’m gone
For the eternity I’ll be away
Please remain calm

Throw me a lifeline
Save me from me
You may be a lunatic at times
But you’re the girl of my dreams

Death may be eternal
Transfixed and transformed
Into another body
Adapted and reformed

Subtle and unnoticed
Yet driven to propel
Focused on the task at hand
Wishing you farewell

It’s been known to happen
In the past I dwell
It acts as a reminder
To never kiss and tell

What is true, what’s a lie?
Stubborn, waiting, to defy
I venture forward,
Just in time
No matter how I felt inside

A mental treasure to behold
Cannot be bartered,
bought, nor sold
Still it’s worth it’s weight in gold
A wealth of knowledge,
Or so I’m told

Taken hostage,
Choosing sides
Wanting all I’ve been denied
Is it a journey to the other side?
Or just another bumpy ride?

A million ways to change
But I’m set in my old ways
I never learned how to navigate
Trough the maze of my mistakes

Tell me stories of past days
Of Shakespeare and his plays
Of Greek gods in mythology
Without turning the page

A million ways to change
But I’m set in my old ways
I never learned how to navigate
Trough the maze of my mistakes

Whisper it in my ear
Make the monsters disappear
Wake me if I fall asleep
Or if I faint from fear

A million ways to change
But I’m set in my old ways
I never learned how to navigate
Trough the maze of my mistakes

Staving off the demons
From the depths of the unknown
From the hell that rests below us
To the heavens I call home

With a sense of accomplishment
And the skills, I have per se
It’s a daily self reminder
That all will be ok.

A blank canvas

A world of potential

Crafty ingenuity

But, alas

There is no room

So I follow my instincts

Wave goodbye to gloom

Much less understanding

About impending doom

The creases in your face

Shows reality and truth

Quirkily misconstrued

With a front row view
