tell me

[blood_fanatic]

show me the thing you most want to show me
the seam leaking out of your jean pockets
the sun shining on your face as you watch me pass by you in the hall
smirking

tell me there's something you need me to know
I promise to listen
I promise you won't regret pouring your soul out onto my lap
like a hot cup of tea

tell me why it's so hard
tell me to take your hand and show you the way
to wherever it is you want to go
I can lead you there

show me what it means to love me so much that your heart stops working
to shower me with kisses and tell me you want to see me happy
tell me that I'm the only one who can tell you where to go
what to do
how to say it
those things you're thinking to yourself

trust me enough to empty your tea pot of
dried leaves and encrusted worries
stuck there for an eternity of
no sleep and crooked high way stripes
no escape chimney

brighten your shaddows
but don't make them dissappear
hide them in light
because shaddows don't dissapear
they just sometimes hide for a little bit
but really they're with you
wherever you go
