Is it okay to wait for something that might never come?
Is it alright to hold me this way and feel me come undone?
Time I can give you, I have and always will.
Time will always out live us though, to wait but to wait until.
To want something so much it becomes an aching in my bones. I've loved and I've lost, and I've done this all alone.
This time it's different. Too easy, yet so real.
Is it right to know already, exactly how I feel?
I hope you feel the same some day, a day sooner than tomorrow.
If you know you can't, you won't, save me any sorrow.
I've thrown my limbs around you, and with that, given you my all. I'm used to giving just half away, but I'm ready to burst, I'm ready to fall.
Unmoved in this moving city
Striking a smile and yet losing the ability
Everyone's at their best and I'm at my worst
Left searching for words that won't sound rehearsed
In a mind full of wonder I'm left unappreciated
Searching for the antidote and instead left sedated
Truth is I'm not sure what the search is for
I'm running and falling through each open door
And until that day I went with my heart
Said no to my head and watched my world fall apart
My heart was on fire and burned through the rain
The first time my world's stopped and let me begin again
He has changed my world in a way that words can't express
And the yes I said that day will be my favourite yes.

ah
gotdang
im tired of all these *******
not using proper grammar

for goodness sakes
this is brutal
i desire to capitalize
but in my minds eye
the goal was irony
irony for all the people who intend
and all who dont
to ***** up the english language
as many wont

its funny
im not mad
just be glad that we can type in the first place
and read and write
and understand and fight
for what we believe in whether or not we are wrong or right
in the end
this is for you dear vandals
dear robbers
dear crooks
robbing the english language of its odd sort of beauty
its backasswards
ridiculous
difficult
wonderful beauty
whether young or old
you make me squirm in the worst sort of way
i love you
God bless you children
because its taking everything in me
not to yell at you

instead
look here
ill join your ranks
i will mess up eery single grammar right
and do write by eery grammar wrong
no commas
one capitalization
no proper i's
and only one apostrophe
no quotations
no brackets, no parenthesis
no subtlety
only irony
and me writhing on the floor

bad grammar kills
This became drivel... I hope it's still enjoyable!
Mask over my face for protection
Jealousy and envy wears my complexion 
Awakened with these angry thoughts and ideas
Performed for my own world for so many years

Holding heavy my head and tightly my truth
These days I've thought I've wasted my youth
Sick feeling in my stomach from words I have swallowed
Shouldn't have sold my soul I'm stuck with what's borrowed

With my every move a route is unknown
Leave this fake reality or go back home
Breathing air so fresh it brings tears to my eyes
'Be you, don't be me' the words filled the skies

A conversation so familiar sounds so rehearsed
With me and me only is with who I've conversed
Take me back to those days of wonder
Living behind a mask but for how much longer?
