I'm a quick study
a fast read
and I can see
this isn't where you want me to be
I care for you
My heart went black and blue
Sore from the bruises you left there
When you promised to share my time and space
Should've known you wouldn't get or contemplate
True love at its best when its staring right at you
Maybe that makes me crazy
for staying..
Quietly anticipating..
That one day when you awake from your nightmare
and see the woman of your dreams...me
Maybe I'm wishing on long lost stars
In this twisted bleak fairytale
I can't tell if its love or a painful deception
Yet I'm still ignoring my powers  of perception
my woman's intuition
Its telling my mind things my heart already knows
Yet im gone on this affliction called love
I can't see with my eyes closed
It must be something
for you are the one i see
with my eyes wide shut
Should've listened to the life lessons taught
When I was told love would truly hurt this much...
