The words I cannot speak The thoughts I dare to think That fear in your heart A shipwreck yet to sink The eyes that never softened The lips that couldn't move The love you never gave The love you had to prove My reason to keep waiting The inconsistent desire My reason to keep leaving The one to hardly admit the admire Keeping yourself away Hidden and tight Leaving doors unlocked Hoping for a familiar goodnight So beautifully confusing Afraid and almost bold A game no longer amusing A hopeful thought growing cold You are 22 lines of endless notions You are all of the stars fallen to the ocean

You Are
The words I cannot speak The thoughts I dare to think That fear in your heart A shipwreck yet to sink The eyes that never softened The lips that couldn't move The love you never gave The love you had to prove My reason to keep waiting The inconsistent desire My reason to keep leaving The one to hardly admit the admire Keeping yourself away Hidden and tight Leaving doors unlocked Hoping for a familiar goodnight So beautifully confusing Afraid and almost bold A game no longer amusing A hopeful thought growing cold You are 22 lines of endless notions You are all of the stars fallen to the ocean
We rarely ever know all that we are.
