So you say that you know her,
Roll her sleeves up,
Tell me why are
Those scars there
Look into her eyes,
Tell me why  are they
so sad,
You say you love her,
Then why she cries at night,
So next time don’t ever
Dare to say
You know her,
You don’t,
You just recognize her,
And there is a difference
No?

my eyes are red.

your touch feels meaningless.
your hug is without warmth.
when you speak to me,
it feels like,
you are doing it,
out of obligation.

I would rather not see you,
at all,
than witness you,
pretending to care.

a tear escapes my right eye,
as you leave.

Your birthday is July 10th
Your zodiac sign is cancer
Your favorite colors are purple, yellow, and orange
Your favorite thing in the world are unicorns
You have a pretty complicated family, kind of like me
You are shy but you are outgoing
You love potato chips with cottage cheese
You hate your little sister
Your little sister has the biggest, most impressive collection of squishes that I have ever seen
You're very insecure even though you're the most beautiful girl in the world
You're really good at volleyball
You can sing but you've never sang in front of me
You want to go back to Texas
You are going back to Texas in four months
I wish you wouldn't leave me

Scrounging every bit of attention
Every little glance keeps her full
She wants the whole world to watch
But her soul, still unnoticed

Still searching for something she don't know, or maybe she refuses to,
Living in denial.

Too young for this,
Too young to be thinking about fate.
Innocence and wisdom couldn't just co-exist,
Life is tougher,
Life's tougher than she'll ever be.

Do you know what there is to know?
You claimed you know what you wish to know.
You cared not to know, so you will not know.
You did not know, so you will not know.
You pretended to know, so you think you know.
But you did not know, so you will not know.
You cannot know
You do not know
I do know
For you I know
For a thousand years
I know, I know
You will not know
But I will so.

I know.

It’s not that I’m sad, per se,
It’s that I’m not anything at all
I cannot feel happiness.
I can experience it but I know
That it will not last forever.
That is the case with all things.
Life is temporary and beautiful,
Life given and taken away
In the same breath.
In some strange way
I’ve known what happy feels like
I’ve just been wishing I knew
How to feel it now.

I don't know what it is about you
That makes me want to move
Mountains
We can climb it together
I hope the feelings mirror
You are so many things
Best of all
Is your personality
I think I'm falling
But if I do
Please catch me
