like the burning end of a midnight cigarette
sigh...
throughout the chaos perfection can be attained...you just have to look a little harder...
I told him I loved him...it didn't go badly, it didn't go great, I need to not be a chicken and just tell him when he hasn't been drinking...lol, I know he remembers...
My head pounds
Even the slightest thought of you demands my full attention
Still
Can you turn off the sunshine?
So I have a reason to feel the rain
And watch you unfold me from afar
It’s always been this way
You will break me again and again and again
If I let you
[We all know I will]
The dim lights from the street
Reflect my hopelessness
As the fog covers my shields
Breaks down the barriers
[I can’t see…or think…or feel]
And the long yellow line of rain spattered hurt
Is never ending, it’s a slow drive to no where in particular
The most important place I’m going
You say to me
Pretty things
Intelligent things
As I stumble over pronouns and make no sense of life
[I’m usually so profound, I swear]
Why do I hate those girls?
The ones in pictures with pretty hair and pretty teeth
Pretty words to say as they stumble, prettily into your arms
And I
I sit on your bed smoking a cigarette and laughing about nothing
[The situation just amazes me]
Blissful moments engrained in nothing but a memory
Laugh it up in silence
Small talk seems so insignificant
But I hang on your words like honey on the tip of your tongue
Sweet and warm
[I long for you]
A drive home from no where in particular
The most important place I’ve been
[My broken heart, how cliché?]
Simple good byes
And fire on my lips
[Will you tell anyone if I say that I need you?]
I’m on the same road I’ve always been
I know where it leads
And I go there anyway
I wrote that a loooooong time ago, it's funny how things change...but then again not really at all...
I remember asking him last night "do me a favor...before you turn into this elusive asshole that you say you are down deep, keep being amazing ok?" he said he would for at least a few more years...lol we are so corny and stupid I love it
