whenever it gets dark
my heart
gets lonely
i wish someone would hold me
but i sleep alone
yeah and that feels so wrong
but at least my writing is strong
and long enough
to write a rough draft
to make you all laugh
at my pain
and at my shame
but who's to blame?
at my no-name change
yes i feel strange
being single
because my heart...
so wants to mingle
yeah this tingle
is torching me
but no cares to see
my availability
pages and pages
of my emotions
almost drown me like an ocean
but trust me
poetry
is like lotion
to my inner skin
yeah it soothes me like a friend
over and over again
yeah no need to pretend
when
I'm hurting
and being self-serving
to whatever I'm going through
and choose to share it with you know who
yeah I bare to blue
and the green '
and the in-between
yeah I come clean
while still looking like a queen
in the meantime
man,
i'm still waiting to be kissed
under the mistletoe
and to dance real slow
on the flo '
yeah don't let go
and love me so much
yeah please let me feel your touch
like a crouch
to a broken leg
yeah love me
like men love Meg Ryan
whenever she is crying
or close to dying
yeah I'm not lying
i wanna be like that "it girl"
in the movies
that all guys...
can't keep up their eyes...
off of
yeah, I yearn...
for a turn...
real movie love
MAN,
whenever i see someone
walk into a room
or play a tune
i say...
why can't that be me?
today
yeah in someway
my sky is gray
and my heart
is dark
yeah because
i am not
an active part
of the crossing guard
man, I cry
'cause my soul can't lie
about my hurtful
yeah even if it tried
my pride...
goes out the window
and my feelings...
crescendo
yeah my cerebral
loves to let people know
just how painful
my palsy can be
yeah it's like a raging sea
to a boat
yeah, no hope \
without a rope
bur I cope
as I soak
in water
yeah so father
I don't wanna be bother
but guess what?
I am
damn
man, i wish y'all could understand
that the ability to walk on this land
looks so grand to me
yeah it's literary all I can see
and all that I hope to be
doing someday
yay, I wanna say
"hey earthly ground "
"let's play around"
"yeah, step by step"
leap by leap"
"let's walk around"
"until my feet fall asleep"
