Day 16

We are all so different
I assume you've loved before
When you see me cry
I hope that you don't laugh
I hope that you don't cry
because in my heart, there's a love
there's a love that won't die
Note to self, single
single breath, heaving sigh
I guess we're not meant to be
Like a flutter, into the past
you're leaving, and everytime
I'm down on my knees
begging you to stay
So, just leave already
We all know, it's me. Just a single
kiss, bring me to life
and flutter, like angel wings
against the cold black sky
Piano chords, bring me my chorus
I guess we're not going to be
Leave, so I can twinge
in this summer dress, lady legs
stiff with grief, gone with death
Breathe.

All I've known, is that there is an end
and at that point
you'll become your dreams, your nightmares
then, you can begin again
Trust rebuilds like all broken brick walls
and when you awake from that sudden death
you'll say, is this my life now
honestly, you can't know
you just have to believe, in everything
that's how love finds you,
caught in the rain, in someone's arms
underneath snowflakes or sunkissed skies
It's all I've known, and it's everywhere
but is this my world, honestly
we'll send quick replies, and shortened goodbyes
waiting for a second time
but the plane takes off
and I'll get drunk, as shit
All my friends will sympathize, oh
When I wake from this dream
shake me, turn on the lights all around me
light the candles, and toss dust into the air
sniffles will turn to sneezes
I just wanted to please, like that night
finally I'll rest, rest forever maybe
Stopping myself from a kiss
I know, I know, I felt that way too
-- And everyday, it's changed since then.
-- In every way, I've changed since then.
