A whistle in the wood, she walks. A silence in the soul, she strays. A mirage in the mire, she wanders. Skies grow vast and dark.

Infatuation. Lust. Love. Those three words, the three stages of my feelings for you. I was at a party that night. You were probably at home, almost 1000 miles away.

It pains me To see you so blue, But what can I do When I can't reach out to you? I'm lonely. I'm tired. I want to go home.

Burn out my tongue, I am aching over you. Don't you feel my spirit, clawing at your wounds? Put your face towards mine so you can see my eyes roll back at your every complaint.

I never let you touch me after you first let me go. You played with me in the park; snow surrounding us like sand on the beach
