I am your best kept secret
The one you are afraid to be seen with
The one you can't bring back to your friends
The one you can't tell anyone about.
But I am the one who thought you cared
I am the one who fell head over heels
And I am the one picking myself up off the floor
And strutting out the front door.
I'm selfish
I can't bare to see you in the arms of another
I'm selfish
I crave the taste of your tongue
I'm selfish
I need your arms wrapped around me tight
I'm selfish
I hold you back from what you could become
I'm selfish
I won't let this end
I'm sorry
I'm too selfish to let you move on.
Buried under all the empty bottles,
And broken hearts
Lied a girl with one to many thoughts.
As she tried to find the answers
At the bottom of a glass
She ended up drowning
Deep into her past.
And she couldn't help but throw back
A mix of all her regrets
And feelings
In one big cup of what she called
Her last.
My fingers are growing tired of writing about you.
Reliving our past will not bring it back,
The mistakes aren't going to just disappear
And I refuse to fight for the good times when I know you wouldn't do the same.
I don't regret our laughs,
Our talks,
The first time our lips met.
I regret how fast I fell for you charm,
And how I believed every single word you spoke.
I will never make the mistake of falling,
again.
Thoughts try to escape the prison walls of my mind.
Lingering through my fingers,
And wanting to dance across the paper I scribble on.
They try to express the words that have always gotten stuck on the tip of my tongue.
I can't help but stutter when I try to explain the way I wonder,
The way my mind can race threw thoughts
And I just remain silent.
Silent to all who may care
And silent to all who may hurt me.
I strive for the taste of your tongue
the way your lips feel pressed against mine
I have never experienced anything better.
My heart races as you glide you hands all over my body,
oh how I miss the way you feel beside me.
You never fall short of making me feel so good.
When I look into those light blue eyes
I see myself,
a smile never seeming to leave
and wondering if you ever will.
Bingeing on all my sorrows
I can not help but shovel in
All my thoughts and emotions  
That I didn't want to share with a friend
I try to hold it back
I try to resist
But I can't help throw up
All the words I have never wanted to shed.
