I’m tired of waiting for the eyes Those beautiful hazel eyes To come staring back at me To set me free I long for those rosy pink lips That captivated me for so long Even the caress of them on my cheek Lighter than a feather I wish for those lips To whisper I love you So that maybe I can hear those words again Tears have sealed my fate For years Not know or even showing The mess behind Covering my lies With pigtails And smiles. I wish just once I could I could… Be with you Hear you stories But you insist and going through it alone Mending All those lines on your wrist alone Why is it worth it Why must I sit on my *** While every second I wait Could be the last second you breathe Why me Why did you choose me I was innocent Irrelevant Like a siren to a ******   I was drawn to you You could have chosen anyone Everybody loved you But you chose the weird kid You chose the one you could mess with The one you could hurt The one you knew wouldn’t hurt themselves Because they don’t want to turn out like you The one who almost had those same lines But doesn’t And never will Because those lines Don’t only hurt you They hurt the people you are close to Every line Is a new paragraph in their anxiety Hoping that they can do something But realizing they can do nothing They just sit Surrounded by pages and pages Flowing like sea Never-ending But they will always come back I will always come back Because I meant I love you You were the greatest friend I could ever ask for So yes I love you

The Longer I Wait
I’m tired of waiting for the eyes Those beautiful hazel eyes To come staring back at me To set me free I long for those rosy pink lips That captivated me for so long Even the caress of them on my cheek Lighter than a feather I wish for those lips To whisper I love you So that maybe I can hear those words again Tears have sealed my fate For years Not know or even showing The mess behind Covering my lies With pigtails And smiles. I wish just once I could I could… Be with you Hear you stories But you insist and going through it alone Mending All those lines on your wrist alone Why is it worth it Why must I sit on my *** While every second I wait Could be the last second you breathe Why me Why did you choose me I was innocent Irrelevant Like a siren to a ******   I was drawn to you You could have chosen anyone Everybody loved you But you chose the weird kid You chose the one you could mess with The one you could hurt The one you knew wouldn’t hurt themselves Because they don’t want to turn out like you The one who almost had those same lines But doesn’t And never will Because those lines Don’t only hurt you They hurt the people you are close to Every line Is a new paragraph in their anxiety Hoping that they can do something But realizing they can do nothing They just sit Surrounded by pages and pages Flowing like sea Never-ending But they will always come back I will always come back Because I meant I love you You were the greatest friend I could ever ask for So yes I love you
