Your effervescent eyes striking A bowling ball hitting pins Staring into I know Must end this before it begins You think want to be absorbed My life and my routine Trust me If aware of what that entails Wouldn't be so keen And brushed dust right off my skin Helped me once more stand Am grateful you let me lean on your frame Supported with a steady hand But knew somehow I'd do you wrong For me you are too good Always those who give the most That do not get treated how they should So memorized the details Stored safely in my head Differences between history And the limbo I found in your bed As I lost my way I learned All love will bring certain pain So it is safer for both of us To just steer clear of the rain Happiness only lasts for so long Until it's abruptly cut short I'd rather decide to go seperate ways now Then wait til we have belongings to sort As I drift further from you One cowardly inch at a time My attraction steadily decreases Yours proportionately climbs I miss experiencing fireworks Butterflies Flame lit in the dark Those sensations vanished when love did Yet I am still holding out for that spark

Your Effervescent Eyes
Your effervescent eyes striking A bowling ball hitting pins Staring into I know Must end this before it begins You think want to be absorbed My life and my routine Trust me If aware of what that entails Wouldn't be so keen And brushed dust right off my skin Helped me once more stand Am grateful you let me lean on your frame Supported with a steady hand But knew somehow I'd do you wrong For me you are too good Always those who give the most That do not get treated how they should So memorized the details Stored safely in my head Differences between history And the limbo I found in your bed As I lost my way I learned All love will bring certain pain So it is safer for both of us To just steer clear of the rain Happiness only lasts for so long Until it's abruptly cut short I'd rather decide to go seperate ways now Then wait til we have belongings to sort As I drift further from you One cowardly inch at a time My attraction steadily decreases Yours proportionately climbs I miss experiencing fireworks Butterflies Flame lit in the dark Those sensations vanished when love did Yet I am still holding out for that spark
