I've never been one to fall quickly,
But with you
I'm falling straight off a cliff;
A sudden Avalanche

I see you in everything I do
And I never knew
Someone could
Effect me like this

I pick it off my shelf again
The same book I
Always go to on nights
Like this

It's familiar
Comforting
Like I
Oh so want you to be

I want to kiss you
And your lips
As smooth as
The torn edges of its cover

I want to touch you
And your body
I will have memorized like
All the words written in ink

I want to love you
And the noises you make
Will be as familiar
As every dog eared page

Let me hold you close
And fall asleep with you in my bed
Like a well-read book does
On nights
Such as this

Undo me
Take everything I know
And throw it away

Make me new again
I want to stay
In your arms for a while

I don't want to be
Just another girl
To you.

Even though it's true that
Countless others
Have said these words,

"I want to be your
Everything."

But do you
Want to be mine?

When you get to that point
That brink
Where you are totally numb
And nothing matters

You just let it take over
Let it drag you down
Into a never-ending sleep

At least nothing will hurt anymore

Just drown me
In something
Anything
Other than this sea of self loathing

It's 2 am and I can't get you off my mind
Your words echo in my head
Over and over again
About how much you love me

I don't think I deserve you
Sometimes

I'm a mess
Crude, anxious, controlling
Flawed in all the worst ways

So why
Do you love me?
Do you stay around?

Why do I mean the world to you?
