i am tired of playing defense....
here
are
some
poems.
you don't have to read them:DD
♥
right now
this life
it's all i have
this isn't a movie
no soundtrack in the backround
no perfectly played lines
i'm just me
and you're just you
can you accept that
can you accept
that i can't wait for you
that my heart can't streach far enough
to reach from summer to summer
there'll be wear and tear
i'm not so sure i'm strong enough
and i'm not so sure
my heart can take another disappointment
another heartache.
a guarantee
isn't something you can give me
but it's the one thing that i need
it's the one perfect line
i need to hear
this isn't a hollywood ending
the girl
and
the guy
don't always find each other
sometimes were left in the dark
arms streatched
waiting to hear our soundtrack kick in
____________________________________________________
my bones
they feel autumn coming
and my heart
i know
will soon feel winter
the frost will come
and i'll be left in the cold
waiting for summers thaw
once more
my hearts strings have been played
and here i am
sheets of music on the floor
and i don't know what to play
you'll leave through the cold
and expect me to stay warm
here i am
standing with
my hands in the air
waiting till you see
it could be summer all year
if only you would let it
______________________________________________________
i'm going to speak from my heart
i'm going to tell you
that
i
can't
breathe
when you sit next to me
that
i
can't
think
when you speak to me
and your blue eyes tear through me
like you've known me forever
but still know nothing
it breaks my heart
not being able
to let my words
my voice
into your heart
it breaks my heart
not telling you
you're keeping me together
that this
connection
through the absence of one
is both
my savour
and
my downfall
_________________________________________________
let's pretend it doesn't matter
eyes don't dart
across closed space
and hands don't grasp
for warmth
in the dark
we'll say
that i'm naive
and you're wise
that i'll be a writer
and you'll be a reader
that's all that matters
isn't it
we'll say
our arms don't ache
just for company
we're alone
and peaceful
aren't we
let's pretend it doesn't matter
that the loneliness
isn't seeping into our veins
like a lethal injection
and time isn't ticking by
like a time bomb
____________________________________________________
i've been thinking
lately
and i've been feeling
lately
what it's like
to be alone
i had a dream
that you held me
"it shook you to the core didn't it?"
that's all you said to me
"it shook you to the core didn't it?"
i had a dream
that we danced in the snow
you wore white
and i wore black
i lost you
to the night
be careful
i'll cross my heart
and
burn my bridges
but you'll never leave me
because
you shook me to the core.
