I have all my best ideas
In the shower.
Perhaps I should just stay there
All day long.

I am a mirage.
Promises of water,
milk and honey,
shine through my empty eyes.

To keep at bay a heart that aches
A few simple things is all it takes
To have armor of your own make

It's all about just having fun
But be aware when it's close to done
You must always be the first to run

Pick and choose and be amused
Just don't ever get too attached to
Someone whom you're sure to lose

Pluck your heart from your sleeve
Don't let it stray beneath the sheets
Unless you want to taste defeat

Hold on to all your sweet allure
Mystery can oft ensure
That he's always left, wanting more

Sometimes you're better to be fake
To protect your heart so it won't break
Put on a mask, for your own sake

I always say; In love, be true
But bashed-in hearts are good for few
Why suffer if no love's in view?

I recommend, don't stay like this
It's just a temporary fix
For a weary heart that's long been sick

It's no hard thing to be a tease
Men give in with such great ease
Made simpler with rules like these

So here is how and what to do
Ladies, this one's just for you
Use it well and follow through
And your heart will never split in two

milky breath
and torn skin
he does not realize
how different he is
from the person
around whose life his revolves

roses are red
violets are blue
i've never lost someone
quite like you

today i lost my other half
one of the reasons why I'm alive
because I wasn't getting better
and my happiness wouldn't revive

the roses are crushed
the violets are gone
just like my heart

I always said I wasn't strong

Your warm breath brushes against my neck,
Calming me down and yet,
Exciting me and making my body react.

Your soft lips find mine,
Gently kissing me and yet,
The intensity between us is fiery.

Your smooth skin is against mine,
Warm and inviting and yet,
It is not enough for my desires.

Your sturdy arms pull me close,
I wrap mine around you and yet,
Now we are one.

It's a blessing and a shame
A title with no name
I really wasn't trying to play
And I really wasn't trying to stay.

We got more serious than I really thought we would
We talked every night, more than we really should
It made us feel like adolescents
Even when all these obstacles were present
Grew fat on conversations all the way from texas
And now I don't reply, your inbox's anorexic

Don't shed one more tear and let go of your fears
Enjoy every second, they quickly disappear
There's so much more to fulfill you with enjoyment
Life is so much sweeter, when you enjoy your every moment
I'm sorry that I hurt you, i can see you grieving
And there's nothing I can do, I just hope that you believe it  
Only thing I can do, is advice you to move forward.
I'll forever cherish the thought of you, I'm sorry this is over...
