And I thought this was what I’d been waiting for…
This look and furtive smiles
Thrown carelessly at my wuthering heart
My first love was beautiful
And will never age
But it wont last either
Because I was late again
I plucked the flower that was tended by the strings of another soul
I don’t like all these tears
And all the silence encapsulated in tiny bags of suffocation
And tied together by the strongest ropes of love
I wont make it again..
I wont color myself no more
This music is also killing me’
And why amidst all of you…I’m so alone
Just why cant someone look at this side
And save me …
I took it all this easily
I didn’t tie time to my hair
I didn’t do anything worthwhile
Because you all were there
And lethargy was a convenience few could afford.
Oh how many times I told you all that I was right
That I should be left to the strumming of my own soul
That I needed none to fill any void that didn’t exist.
And now I’m left barren and my smiles also aborted my very being
And when my child smiled at me, I didn’t pick her up.
You my brother, were my breath
And I didn’t even talk to you when you sought me out from the maddening crowd
Because I thought I would cry out my woes
And paint you blue.
But I do love you so
And when I do leave please know that you all will be leaving with me
I’m leaving nothing behind
Except the flower I plucked
For I want to laugh with mirth again
From the very depths of my cracked throat
Its been long. I need to go
For love is a lie, I know now
And I don’t want to live a lie…
