A Poem

How do I get you to see..
that all you should ever want is me?

When do I know
when I should hold to the past,
or turn around and let it go?
Can our two lives so far apart..
come together to form one perfect heart?
Do we happen to tread into anothers world, meant to stay
only to close the door and walk away..
When do we realize the purpose we choose..
Do we ever understand the moments we lose?
If in the middle of our lives so parallel..
Do we reach an intersect to stop and tell?
Can we ever come to understand,
the withering effects of ageless time..
When all we can do is drown in soundless mime?
Maybe we are just living with our eyes half open
thinking of all those words left unspoken, too bent too broken.

There was a moment i needed you the most..
only to have you be nowhere in sight like a disappearing ghost
Is this the place we used to love..
Is this the place that I've been dreaming of?
because for me you've always been the one that makes me come undone
and if your the only one whats the use of being with any other one?
and you always find a way and you always know just what to say making me stay when I just want to walk away
Some find all the right in the wrong and all the wrong in the right
sometimes that’s just easier than dealing with the pain of the fight

The power of love defies any.
The only thing we can never betray.
A cure and a curse for so many
We lust to live and love to lust
We love to live and live to love
Is there anything more unjust..?
its one of those things you have to feel to be true
Give me one note so I can dance with you..
And we can all dance together on cue.

but now your gone.. oh simple things where have they gone?
I've lost you and I need something to rely on
So tell me when your going to let me in..
Because were so lost and we need somewhere to begin
So why don’t we go somewhere only we know
this could be the end of everything so why don't we go?
It was yours for the taking
So tell me tell me just why are you breaking?
As we learn to live and live to learn
we play with the fire just to see how we burn.
As I begin to burn the images of you, its just me playing with fire
memories of you and memories of your face
they drag me down they take me back to that place
some things just can't be erased
I spent so much time getting to know you
now I spend my life trying to forget you
You come and you go but when the rain finally washes you clean then you will know
you had me so turned so burned you were my one desire
so tell me when I can wake up from this nightmare
turn it into a dream that I can bare
but I am still dreaming of your face hungry and hollow for all those things you took away
give back to me what I lost to you and give me a new day, lets try and make it a new way
I try to make nothing into something thats so much more
It never goes the way I intend, makes it worse than before

sometimes to care is just not worth the pain
and to try and try makes me too insane
I blame myself for wanting more, for all these things I can't ignore
the things that i've loved the things that i've lost
I try to be happy no matter the cost
To the place I thought I knew, I will never go
That I always wanted to, yet I will never know
And we drown in the tears we shed..
as we ride on the hopes of promises we are fed.
Confusion never sleeps hearts and minds will never agree..
cursed missed oppurtunities making traitors of us all
we now know what we could never see.
Its so painful..something thats so close and still so far out of reach
Its something so decieving when you stop believing..
the nature of humans as we practice, as we preach
It takes so long to learn and so quickly we forget..
if only the moments of perfectness with you
could last just a bit.

the space between is where everything stalls
its the space between normalism and perfectionism man always falls
the space between is the valley of the dead
what we fear and what we dread comes to us as we tread
we cross the line of nevermore but we always hope for so much more
the space between
a space full of nothingness so many people have seen
because regret is the most expensive thing
just being your memory is worth anything

When you want it all sometimes you have to sacrifice it all..
sometimes you leave nothing to catch you if you fall
Maybe forgiveness was never lost at all..
maybe redemption is found right where we left it.
I dont want to learn more than I need to forget
And the dark planet's still spinning
in a race where no one wins and no ones winning.
and though I keep trying my dark earth is crying while hell is smiling
When does our own great creations..
corrupt our own inspired imaginations?
And we keep playing the same old game of shame..
We take more than we get
paying anything to chance another roll of the dice
gambling another person another life..
another fame just the same old game
How do we read the actions of others..
What does our actions say to anothers?
Does one ever stand up and shine..
Anyone to break a defining line?
So many walk the line paying the ultimate fine
giving in or giving up
never did so many think to lineup
Everybody's had to fight to be free..
there is no pretending tomorrow is the same
Tonight you see, just one second is free to me
What would I give to fly away..
to fade away and free fall out into nothing.
but some say better things will come our way..
There's no time to think about the starting or the end
we'll find out im sure how much we are worth to spend

If theres only one choice to make..
do we ever give, or do we always take?
If tomorrow was never a day..
What would we do, how would we say..
it all today?

How do I get you to see..
that all you should ever want is me?
