| Thoughts at 12 A.M. With expressions come emotions With emotions come weakness And weaknesses are hidden The weaknesses of our hearts Outweighs the knowledge of our brain And that's where the hurt comes from Falling headfirst And leaving our heads behind What if the tears of the world dried up And the skies would not rain All of the pain of the world Miracously disappeared And we were left behind Just you and I With no more fears Our hearts could be true And we would not be afraid of the falling We would welcome the love we once had Before the broken hearts, Lies, and whispered promises-long forgotten The lies that fall from your lips Spin the sweet words Over my brain and right through my heart Where they will stay Until that one day When the promises once made Will die softly Underneath my gaze If I was lonely Would you comfort me? If I was sad Would you cheer me up? If I wasn't me? Or the me you knew? Or the me you would like me to be? I want to be ME. Is not the way I always am I skip along the road to friendship Keeping them close But oh so far away. Late at night I dream I hear the whispers my heart makes When it tries to capture it's emotion In it's pounding pulse And I gasp Alarmed at the rapid beating Steady yourself Breathe deeply Breath in the truth And exhale out the lies Why does this happen? It seems as if I watch myself From across the room I study my actions In confusion Why do I turn away From the ones I need the most? Why does life Send you flying uphill- And then crashing down? And you anticipate the impact But it's always worse than you ever imagine Why? Undefined |
