Tell me a story
Tell me a story on how indescribable the way you feel for others is
hatred to the deep gut, to love from an open heart
Tell me a story where you can write all the words
but it never seems just about it
tell me how much you can love someone that you can be lead to lies easily
how much you can hate someone to the point you despise every spec of them
The story of how you can't speak
but the story of how you can feel what those people mean to you
because it's the closet you can get to showing me
how truly those feel to you
tell me a story on how you hear
how dread and horrid it can sound, to how blissfully warm
I wanna feel every shiver of warmth and cold
so I know how it engulfs you
tell me a story on how it feels to touch them
from how jagged, to how soft
tell me the biggest story of those one's
I wanna know those ways you feel
how you think you can't explain it just right
how it's so painful to listen too
to how much you can't get enough of that voice
how uncomfortably cold it feels to touch
to how it feels like it's gonna wrap you
like a big, fluffy, warm blanket on a cold winters night
tell me a story on how you can write this all out
but never seem to stop
never seem to get it perfect
never placed in the right ways.
that's the story I wanna hear
and maybe it'll sound so heavenly
maybe even so atrocious
I couldn't say how it sounded
