It's okay to have sad feelings.
That doesn't mean you have a permanently sad soul. I have a very happy soul. But I sort of hate the words happy and sad. It's not that bland and I feel like people already have their idea of what they are and their thoughts can't be swayed to what it actually is for that situation. But as I was saying. It's okay to have sad feelings. Sometimes it is inevitable. I don't think I mean it how people will take it will sometimes. But it's okay, it's all great. Everything is a big color book and it's all everything and it's all wonderful in the long run, maybe.

i want to believe that i'm worthy of care
that someone out there could love me,
accept my quirky innuendos and
sullen moments

i want to believe that
the thoughts of me could cloud someone's mind
and make it impossible to forget
because i've been cast aside one, too many times
to put faith in the impossible

You loved her with your body all night but didn't know who she was in the morning.
You even turned the lights out before turning
Your hands in her hair but they're actually touching her mind
Your fingers tracing her skin but you can't even see the lines they're leaving behind
Your arms around her waist and she tries to make it seem like forever.
But it's only one night and she can't seem to bring all of her thoughts together.
A single touch, its like a single drop in a perfectly still pond and even you can't stop the ripples from making waves.
You think they'd wear out by now but they've been crashing around her for days.
Oh and you're touching her, touching her, and she's trying to hear words but she can't even make out a sound.
Your waves they're splashing her
S p l a s h i n g her
And she thought she could drink them but she drowned.

We finished talking;
no more words to say,
no more time to spare.
Yet I still had a story to tell,
but time was gone.

What I wanted to share was far
        too graphic, far too heavy,
to be told before parting.
An eagle can't swoop to the lake
to scare the fish.
It must complete its task
and take its time.
If you only have time to scare,
you don't have time to spare,
save the story if you care.
