You have to wonder why
They spend years studying
More years perfecting
When you can rip a heart out
...
I have no love to call my own,
I stand with friends yet feel alone,
within my heart true love resides,
I know not where my lover lies,
...
Temptation was going to get me
When ego ruled my head
Ignoring the common sense voices
I blindly went ahead
...
how does it go
more than friends
but not quite lovers
sure am jealous
...
Faded beauty
Cuts unkind
Into the memory
Of the mirrors in the mind
...
Unwrap yourself from you
Come out from within your own shadow
There’s more to the world than me, me, me
Someone else might just be right
...
In the future they will think me mad
Each time I think of you
My lips will bend at your memory
Reminders of you will follow me to the end of my days
...
Kiss me into nothing
Make me disappear
Fingertip my heartstrings
Relieve me of all fear
...
I’ve walked this path a hundred times
Above me in bright spring sunshine
A thousand bare arms stretch for the sky
Under my feet, gnarled tree roots exposed
...
The end it came too soon,
I thought the day had come
When valentines would have some semblance of meaning
It was destined not to be
...
