Avoid me,
I am poisonous

2. Hate me,
I am the sunshine for your scars

3. Forget me,
leave me and slam the door, scream my name to the storm and tell me how much you hate my existence

4. Fake your feelings,
I am the stupid girl willing to hang on the trapeze for you

5. Hurt me
till I can't feel anything anymore
You really hate me, don't you?

We're as different as can be
and tragedy's our destiny

Too many wishes on one wishing star
because tragedy's our destiny

I love you too much
and I know

Tragedy's our destiny
"You stand on the top of my favorite tragedy"

It's a blue day and I think of you
Again
And I cry and cry and cry myself a river
But couldn't get over it

Why does it have to be like this?
Why do I have to feel these things?
It's love? What is love?

What do you want me to do?
Tell me
We're running out of time
I've been thinking of you all day

You were ice
And I was flame

You play it cool
While I'm overly uptight

Can we stand against the world
Together?
They say we can't be
But tell me they are all wrong
Paradox is what we are and they don't know us

Look up, I say.
Look up.
You will get over this.
Rise above the pain.
It's only temporary.
You will find your love someday.
Although you want to rush
everything, 
the wait is worth the love you'll receive.
Turn off all the lights,
I want to see your heart glow
And your true colours shine
Like a spectrum,
Watch the colours of
Sky blue,
Blood red,
Sunset orange,
Apple green,
Dance across the walls
And sing a serenade
Of a thousand dreams,
Let me hold you close
So I can feel the technicolor
Pulse beneath your skin
And ignite a rainbow
In my soul,
Take me to the sea of stars
That glisten in the iris
Of your eyes,
I am perplexed by
The way you sway
With the colours of the night,
A fire in your stomach
That spits embers of smouldering
Beauty,

*I am lucky to be the one that shares your prismatic perfection.
Buried inside
Wrenching pain
of Untold truths
and Secrets maintained

Alone in crowds
Invisible to eyes
Can't they hear
My Silent Cries

Tired and weary
Heartache swells
The world ignores
My muted yells

Tears descend
Spirit sighs
Won't anyone hear
My Silent Cries*

Come to me and stay a while
     Let's share a drink or two
Sit back relax enjoy yourself
   That's all you need to do

Go ahead and take a nap
     I'll wake you in a few
With a meal prepared for you and I
     And a table set for two

I want to make you happy
     For more than just a day
And show you that I love you
     In every possible way

What I'm really trying to say
     Is I want to make you mine
If only for a little while
     Like maybe just a lifetime.

I may forget what is true
Might deny what is real
Take a selfish adventure
Focused only on you

Let all my dreams take flight
Act out the could have been
Lose myself but for a night
Weakened by my kryptonite*

Here I go
          Again
Smiling
          *So wide
An involuntary
Pure reaction
To the thought

          Of

You


Surroundings fade

I am fully submerged
          in Images and Dreams
Wholly immersed
          in Conversations and Schemes
Completely entrenched
          in Wondering
                    What this
                              All
                              
                                        Means

I am here
       Smiling
Again
          Right now
In these moments
Reenacting
A lifetime

          With


You

So far gone

Transcended to a parallel reality
I could dwell here
          In my make believe
Make a life here
          For you and me
Stay forever here
          Lost
                    Inside
                    
                              My fantasy

Awakened
          Now

Smiling
          Still
Filled with
Excitement
And Love

          For


You
