I am restless,
here in this place,
I can feel the change
quickening my pace.

I'll step forward,
with tears on my face.
Lift my face to the light,
I'll dig down and brace.

It's time to work,
to show my ace.
I'll be happy in the end,
and I'll do it with grace.

Here in this place,
screaming to change,
the truth will slap me,
smack in the face.

I cringe at the thought,
to lose it all.
I've been waiting so long,
lost and fought.

I find myself on the edge,
tipping over, about to fall.
A change on the rise,
before i'm off the ledge.

I've never written words so strong
for a love; simple and sweet.
But for it my heart does long,
Waiting to be swept off it's feet.
Hope for a response in song,
A heart with a similar beat.

Come back to me,
or set me sail,
to sail a sea,
and find a new male.

Us.
You and I, we are one.
Me, myself, and one more.
Without you, undone.
heart drifting, floating, lost from shore.

Ridiculous, I'm lit
but drowning in pain.
quick! I've lost it,
I'm no longer sane.

I stand; wait for your lash.
I hear words all around,
slice, bruise, bash,
my heart into ground.

Run rabbit run,
from what You know,
It will be lots of fun,
my pain will grow.

You think you're fit?
then bring down the cane,
choking on the bullet I bit,
suffocation in lock and chain.

wreaking of ***** and ash,
you stumble in with sound,
throw me out like trash,
my words have been drowned.

Here I am, loaded gun.
Your worst enemy, you know.
but your words will be undone,
and I will defeat the crow.

I can feel it.
Hazy and slow,
like a snake
at a show.

Smoky,
Creeping,
I can see you Sleep!
I know!

Heavy eyes
and tired limbs,
Dreams you'll keep,
Sleep, dear foe.
