*Tracing the tattoos on your arm with the pupils of my eyes Should I touch The night is getting older The mistakes I haven’t made yet are making me anxious The conversation I’m hiding from you is beginning to make my lips turn blue But you have become exceedingly good at turning them purple Merging my misery with your happiness Finding the average in a not-so-average pair Remaining too close for comfort While comfortably numb to both yesterday and tomorrow’s heart ache I’m scared because you make me feel You make me think You make me someone other than the man I used to be And I’m having trouble deciding if that’s a good or bad thing right now The good news today is that I always see you in my dreams The bad news tomorrow is that I may forever see you in my nightmares*

At, twelve he wasn't just a boy, ahoy! Stout cute tender, was he the boy, ahoy! Moments before he met someone who was not a boy ! Ahoy! Skipped a beat or 2, the heart ! Ahoy! Blue gown it was and indeed the smile, which blushed the boy ! Ahoy! No wonder the boy found his Helen of Troy! Ahoy! For the world seems to be only her, it was love what he felt the boy! Ahoy! The horsemen gathered around her, from nowhere came the Roy ! Ahoy! Grabbed her wrist, When she tried to resist, She cried for help, but the boy ! Ahoy! But the boy, couldn't utter for he was stupefied, for whence he saw her die, with his own eye! The twilight saw two souls die! Ahoy! The anger, vengeance isn’t kid’s toy! Ahoy! Craved for the head of the Roy, the boy, Ahoy! Desired for the blood of Roy, the boy, Ahoy! Vengeance gathered courage, foots stepped towards the Roy! Ahoy! **** the Roy was what he knew, the boy, Ahoy! Foots gathered pace, faster, faster echoed in mind of the boy, Ahoy! THUD! Tranquil was in the ambience, no sight of joy! Scream of boy broke the ice! Made turn around the Roy! Ahoy! For the boy was soaked in blood, was shot in heart by the guards, boy! Ahoy! The Roy was stunned to hear the boy cry, for he uttered the last phrase, the boy! ahoy! “ you’ve killed me twice Roy! You killed me twice same night, Ahoy! ”
