I saw it in the cards today,
What I didn’t want to see,
But needed to see,
Spoke to me,
to let me know,
Over and over it screamed,


Our time is up,
Let go,
Let go,
I need to let go,
I know that you’re going to be okay,
So now I can move on

Fighting in my own head,
You stick like glue,
But my head tells me to push,
Speaks to me,
To let me know,
Over and over it screams,

Our time is up,
Let go,
Let go,
I need to let go,
I know that you’re going to be okay,
So now I can move on,

I wanted to be there to catch you,
To piece you back together when you fall,
But now I know,
You don’t need that,
That you don’t need me,
Now,
I can go.

Innocent eyes,
Green and gold,
Mischievous smile;
The lips that they imagine teasing whispers come from.
Just one glance
And you'll know that she doesn't a man.

The scars you left,
Tried and true,
Are still lingering between us,
Keeping me away from you,
You promise that it will be different this time,
That you won’t do me wrong,
But the memories haven’t faded,
When the pain was just too strong,
I give all that I have,
Just to see you smile.
But something in me says that you will only stay for a little while
And out in the cold I’ll be,
Left on the floor like I was before,
To pick up what is left of me,
When I hear you two’s song on the radio,
It makes me cry inside,
Because it reminds me of what I’ll never be,
Of how important I will never be in your eyes.

I stand in light
Nothing to hide, except for one thing.
I feel the darkness at my back.
Everything I know,
All that I was raised into tells me to run from the dark,
But I do not.
I let it consume me inch by inch.
You,
Who straddles the dark and the light.
Can move freely between them.  
I am in awe.
Something about you pulls me to the dark.
I would never say it as it would be out of place,
But I feel it nonetheless.
  
I want a full moon,
As cliche as it sounds,
When the lines between man and beast are blurred.
Pull me into the dark cruelly,
Past all of my borders.
Never taking no for an answer.
Lure me in with devious whispers,
Getting into my head.
Take me captive in my own mind.
Bind more than just my body.
Leave marks on more than just my skin.
Don’t just cause me pain,
Consume me.
Take me far past your sadistic nature,
Into the eye of the storm.
Into the belly of the beast.

As  you lay in the bed
Sleeping off the night before,
I feel a warm ray of light hit my face,
The sun is rising,
But it’s dark inside.
I sit amongst the destruction,
Feeling like the only human being left,
I look at you,
Still feeling that overwhelming love,
Even after all that I went through

I stroke your cheek,
Letting a single tear fall on you,
As I wish that I could fix it,
Fill that endless hole that you have inside,
That you feel the need to fill with all the wrong things,
Wanting to do anything to make you happy,
But knowing deep down that I can’t

The vicious cycle to which we are bound,
It feels so right for a while,
Then that one night comes,
Where it all comes tumbling down,
Everything that I built,
The wall I built around you,
To keep you happy,
To keep you safe

My heart is tired

You were the sunrise,
Luckily I still have the light of the moon.
You were the supposed center of my universe,
But yet you gave me no hope, no warmth?  
I am content under the moon and stars,
So subtle,
Away from the forward rays that you display.
At night,
when the wolves howl and the owls screech,
I look up in my sky and find that you are nowhere to be found…
I smile.

Perhaps I’m insane,
It wouldn’t be the first time someone would think that,
He thinks that I am,,
Cat lady in training

But little does he know,

I have a secret,
A light hidden,
Yes, hidden in my soul.

There, words flow freely,
It’s deeper than anything that he could comprehend,
Couldn’t even wrap his head around it,

His soul is new and naive,
Mine is antique,
Wiser,
Stronger,

He is muscular
Physically stronger,
I am feminine,
Softer,
but yet I am still 3 times the man he is inside.

So walk along boy,
Boy,
thats what you are,
Because a real man would see this light,
This gift.
See my worth.

Shoo fly,
Go on back to your cavalcade of short skirted, high heeled kittens,
Where looks alone makes your world go round.

Your soul will always just be on the surface....
