I hope you're real
Like the way I feel,
Because I've missed you
Before I knew who,
And I've hesitated
I've procrastinated,
To give you my heart
To give you a part,
In the play that is my life
Here; take this knife,
I'll give in and trust
You won't ******
It into me;
I hope to see
The truth
Like superman out the booth,
Love is blind like cards in decks
But I've got x-ray specs,
Through and through
I'll look deep into you,
But will your eyes glaze
Like the cloudy skies and daze?
I want your soul next to mine
But I hope you're not feeding me hook and line,
Because I've never taken the sinker
Why do you suppose I'm such a thinker?
Fool me once lie to me twice
I've always rigged the dice,
For everyone to lose
If I so choose,
Because alone
I don't share my bone,
In loneliness I belong to myself
Don't care if I'm just on a shelf,
I burn bridges and build walls
Because people would if they could, **** on me like bathroom stalls,
But I'm ten times better than they think they are
I burn ten times brighter than the farthest star,
So if you're still in this and hanging on
Don't let go or I'll be gone...
