-I admit I wrote this poem at a slightly bitter and cynical point in my life-
So, everybody wants to know
what the truth about love is.
...
I dreamed of you,
Last night.
The first dream ever.
We lay together,
...
I wish I could feel you,
sleep with you, marry you,
be happy with you
but you don't exist.
...
-I wrote this poem for when I have my first daughter, Aislinn-
Nighttime is coming,
The moon’s drawing near,
...
Do you cry,
After the knife is dragged,
Across your skin?
Do you cry for yourself,
...
I can't be,
Who you want me to be.
So I better give up trying,
And just let myself fall.
...
I’ll never give up on you,
And I’ll never walk away.
When other people leave you,
I’ll be the one to stay.
...
Do you realize
The way you make me feel,
When you walk in the room?
How all you have to do,
...
If I could hold your hand and look in your eyes,
I'd tell you everything will be okay.
I'd tell you to smile, it makes you look good,
And everything's gonna work out someday.
...
I need to escape from myself
From the troubles deep inside
I need to run and hide
Like when I was little
...
