it was all very familiar.                
it was all very sad.
                                  
it was all quite lovely,                  
the love she never had.
                            
it was a constant in her life,                                                                            
she fell too freely.
                                
the boys were carefree,                                                                      
unable to love really.
                                      
she couldn't keep herself from loving,                    
it was a gift and a curse.
                                                                                    
seeing the best but
feeling like the worst.

make me feel something
the only reason i am present
is for you to
make me feel something
deep inside
in my heart
in my stomach
butterflies should be cutting
deep inside
due to the ferocity of their wings
but they are stuck in their cocoons
they are resting on a dying flower
make me feel something
make me feel anything
the only reason i am present
is for you to
make me feel
