On tippy toes, dancing with the Devil; the tipsy ballerina – tattooed her dreams underneath a piece of Silk. And there's a lace upon my window eyes, to see through her pain; she seems so brainwashed, and in such a daze – _as rain fell on her hair._ Her skin was once so fair, nowadays it seems to be paying a fare, for all those potholes up the road to her smile. I splashed in the puddles of a few wet kisses – speaking less, but hearing a lot of, “all men are just the same,” as for me, society’s standard of beauty all looks, and tastes the same. _I held you, kissed you_ – lending out a lens, to blind my eyes from seeing your ugly friends. Those you hate in secret; telling me how MUCH you hate them, and my hate for them, must ALSO be good at playing pretend. As you pout your mouth – talking about how much I should bank on your heart – is that the reason you keep an account on all the things I've done wrong, to make me lose interest in our love? Love can feel like it’s around the corner; too busy playing on these streets, in the present tense – hoping to receive our gifts. But when love has run its course, it’s a static image of joy; the two are just __GIFs.__

It was pouring cats and dogs, I saw her drenched to the skin, She ran to the canopy where I stood, Her wet look,see through blouse, and hunched shoulders, Made A Sound in my heart, Thud, thud, thud................... I offered her my coat. The next sunny day I saw her at the bus stop, "Hi, remember me from yesterday." " Sorry pal it was dark, I don't recall you. Your FILE NOT FOUND!" I insisted,"Don't let my heart's 'Server Down." Your smile, your style,your grace I have clicked SAVE in one FILE. Please be my life's Animated GIF. She:"I am involved with someone, I have no more 'Disk Space' in my heart's storage for you. Please 'Ctrl+alt+delete' me from your life."

And it's like you expect me not to hurt; I mean I am the perpetrator, but that doesn't make it any Easier Easier would have been everything working All the cogs aligning, workin' properly I almost lost it on a .gif I almost cried from viewing something that reminded me. I made the right choice, because the cogs are aligning on my side, they're workin' properly But that doesn't make this grandfather clock creak any less.
