Blue Eyes

I see the man before me
A shadow of where you've been,
You've sorted it all out,
You knew just how to mend.

You took away my ideas
And threw them all aside,
I thought I knew everything
But of course it was me that lied.

I stumbled behind you
Looking for a friend,
You gently turned to me
And said that's one thing you cannot lend.

I wanted to be more
You wanted to be less
How could it have come to this?
It's such a big, dumb mess.

I still see the light in your eyes
I look up to you, dear,
You've always been there for me,
I cannot express my immense gratitude and fear.

I'm terrified I'll feel
What I once thought was true,
Please, don't give me those blue eyes
Unless my heart belongs to you.

The Stage

The Stage

You're just an actor
On a stage meant for two
Stop acting as one
And just be true

You deny yourself relations
Unheard and unseen your heart remains
Sticking to a mask
You want no one to claim

Drowning in ignorance
You see the earth
Your heart forever folding
Never a rebirth

It's not that you lack faith
You do hold that dear
It's just that you can't care
Even about someone else's fear

Rolling Away

A perfect fit
Like the ring on my finger
They rolled down
You let them go.

Took a while to get it right
You sent the message straight
Rolling again,
The perfect fit rolling away.

I look up and you're there
But not for me.
I'm not her
And never will I be.

They will continue to roll on
I cannot stop.
You were there
I let you slip off.

Like the ring on my finger
You slipped away.
And now they're rolling,
Rolling down, down and away.
