Something
Levity of loss, agony of absence
the unmistakable ache of solitude
a lingering need
she's magnified in thought
wearily excluding all others
even herself
There's specific places
things, faces, rings
drempt of or from reality
but I'd never knew
so seldom me
in all these waking fantasies
A space held dear and sacred
a place not crept inside
going back
again and again
only to obide
This world is lawless
proceeds the degradation of
nothing
in fact it's only this that exists
which will always make it
something

Second best
When I think of it, it wrecks me
there's nothing I can do
no relief for past
no escape fromo follow thru
I can tell you that it's agony
worse without you near
but I'd be lying through my teeth
reliving all the fear
you killed me everyday I wanted you
everyday I couldn't see
everyday I relented
and forgot what's best for me
I miss the way I'd lose control
miss my self-esteem
wreck me with the silence
make it, but a dream
live in zero gravity
never come to earth
I tried to breathe in oxygen
to love for what it's worth
but there's no getting through to you
getting through to me
I'm shrouded with what I do
forgetting about me
you swallow up what's good inside
take for granted every stare
take advantage of intention
or that I'm even there
I'd be better off forgetting you
it'd certainly be best
but the hole that's left inside of me
is chaos in my chest
All I ask is that you're happy
All I ask is to get along
all I know is that I miss you
but I know that isn't wrong
And loving you's not wrong
it's the most natural thing to do
but I won't let myself get trapped there
the second best I'd ever knew
