She renders me an idiot, a *******;
Okay,
I'll admit it!
Without her, I still act that way
But in my defense
She makes me twice as dense
Like a brick being compacted
My stupidity's enacted
Like she flips some switch that turns off my brain
And there are words in my mouth
Or are they in my head?
Or, wait what am I saying?
She makes me forget
And we haven't gone out yet
It'll happen tonight
And if it goes alright
Then maybe I won't act stupid
Maybe fat, baby cupid
Will ease up a bit so I can think 'stead of awkwardly
Talking of nothing to justify
Staring in her eyes
Her gorgeous, gorgeous eyes
You're adorable.

I have to understand that what I did was out of
Non-necessity
The actions that occurred,
All happened because of me
What I've worked for is undone
There's nothing left to work for;
there's nowhere else to run
I've shot myself in the foot
A thousand times a thousand times a thousand again
And every time I pulled the trigger
The hole kept getting bigger
Until there was no foot, there was no hole, there was no end
To the pain that was self induced
The end that my actions had produced
Made me sick to think that I
Had caused my heart and soul to die

Sitting in my room
Drawing pentagrams
On the backs of
Index cards
In the slight hope
That the devil will
Appear
And that when he takes
My soul
He'll take my heart as well
To stop me from being
A stupid
Little
*****

Pinned down in a picture book
When all I wanted was to touch the sky
With my soft, soft wings
But you knew best, didn't you?
Keep me locked away
Like the protector you claim to be
I am fading, and you sit
With nightstick and coffee
Proud of the job you did
Protecting me

I can speak the words of another
With the conviction
Of a thousand horsemen
Riding into battle
But my own words I say soft
And they are lost in the thunderous
Hoofbeats

**** justice. I want ramen.

I will not see you differently
If that is what you fear
Because I only see you as beautiful
And everything else is just a part of your beauty

I want for you to be happy
Even on the saddest of days
When your eyes so big that they could hold the moon
Hold only tears

If I could hug you for every second
From today until the end of it all
I would
And I'd bite your shoulder slightly
Because that's my way of saying something like I love you

I don't know your truths and lies but I trust you
And someday you might trust me
To contain my odaxelagnia, and bite me
Because science has a sense of humour, and that feels good

So please just talk with me, whenever and for whatever
I know I'm not much help at times
But I will try so hard to not be the opposite of help
Let me in, gorgeous. I want to earn your trust
