love and the lack thereof

What are we,
the endless streets
the very backwards souls we seek
The way you say my name, it's sweet
The way you hide your face, defeat
But that's too bad
And what am I
The colors of the bluest sky
I seek you out
and hunt you down
I am love,
The lack thereof.
I am lost then I am found
They say you're talking to yourself
Both night and day
You shelf, reshelf
But with a friend so
dear and true
And of course, I
love you too
They don't see me
standing there
They don't see me
Then why stare?
So morose
Your face, I'd say
It's even gross
The very way
I don't think
you've gone through hell,
seen the light
and LOL
My goodness girl,
You ain't a creep
So bow your head,
and swift defeat
Will come to those who pray
I do that, no
shame to say
Every single freaking day

while you sleep

I decided to go meet you
and fall deeply in love
but I encountered something weirder than
all of the above
inside of here
there's a different
kind of fear
that kind that makes me tear
I close my eyes
and I awake
I blink and then I dream
this is better than to deal
with all that's in between
like living and not
speaking and hitting it off
with everyone
everywehre
well, just to be fair

I wanted to believe in something
tangible
something real
but belief is something fake
something you cannot feel
or taste
I wanted to achieve
the ultimate in fantasy
but leave that for dreams
alone
in your head
while you sleep

I would fall in love

notes: a song; certain lines are from one of my poems, just fit, so I stuck 'em in.


The lights go on in the city streets
And I'm alive again
The lights go on and I can see
I might survive again

Chorus:

(But) I would fall in love
If only you would take my hand and
pull me down from up above
I would fall apart
If only you would take the pieces
_


Here, you can have a hand.
And here, you can have my heart.

The lights go on in the city streets
The night has come to take days place
And I'm just thinking
What's my purpose? Who am I?

The lights go on and I can see
I'm stuck and yet I'm free
The last time that I saw you
you were lying here with me

[chorus]

You can take my heart

oo, woah oh oh oh x3
oo, woah

Well, who would have thought
that that the world would fall apart
at the end of the day
And who would have held me closer
If they knew
All the things that I would say

[chorus]

You can take my heart

oo, woah oh oh oh
oo, woah oh oh oh x2
oo, woah

You can have my heart
