Dreaming Of You

You knew I was in love with you.

Yet you wouldn't take a chance, 

give some back.

So I retreat into my den,

Like a bruised lioness.

I no longer have the strength to convince you to see me for who I really am. 

My heart feels crushed beyond repair.

And I am in so much pain.

Look what you've done, 

I am broken again.

You're so cool.

My stomach is in knots every time I think of our kisses.

It felt real, comforting.

You're so beautiful.

The way you beam with excitement like a child when you tell me your stories.

And now you don't talk to me anymore.

Was it something I said?

Was it something I did?

That made you walk away.

Don't you want me?

I want you.

I still want you.

Every day is hard.

I'm trying to get over you.

What have you done.

If I could rewind, I would.

I'd go back to the time I didn't know of your existence.

Now you're everywhere.

Take away this great pain,

that you've caused me.

Honestly, at this point, that's all I'm asking for. 

You're so great.

I'm just a nobody. 

Juvenile Acts of Longing

I could write a sad song

Or two

About you

But that wouldn't make you come back, 

so what do I do? 

I need you to be mine.

I want to serenade you all the time.

You make me feel so sublime.

This is nothing but another cheesy rhyme.

And yet you know my love for you is true.
