i  envy your pillow
it lets you
rest your head on it
while i can't

i envy your cup,
it kisses your lips
tasting yours,
while i just stare at it,

i envy your blanket
it covers your skin
it touches every bit of you
while i can't

i envy your clothes
it touches your skin
every corner of it
every flaw
while i'm sitting here
typing this

Why do the wrong things
Always feel so right?
Why do our temptations
Always win the fight?
The child always reaches
For the kettle when it's hot
One day the burns and scars
will show her she should not
So foolish I was to think
That lust was not my sickness
Because an unguarded strength
Is really a double weakness.

Im scared I wont be able to do all I want in life;
Because when you compare the world to a human life time
Everything seems small.
But on my ever growing list
Living in fear is not on it.
So for now I'll complete the first,
And live on so happily.
