18

I need a summer song to get me through
this hot cold january days
and these stop go january nights
i need some lyrics to cure me
from what ever you gave

but either way no matter what
its here i go and here i stay
half asleep half awake
half hoping to open my eyes at the right time

but this dream you gave isnt so long
i mean what do i know at 18
besides that tea can mold like stale bread
and not to pass in drawings late

but this dream you gave is still on
even after you turn out the lights
I mean what do you know about love at 18
besides that you're in it and you could
either sink or swim

I need a summer song to get me through
the days i'll have to be without you
until the days i can be with you
i need lyrics to cure me from the
foot in mouth that you gave

either way no matter what
the touch of it tastes so good
the feel of it is completion
and im half hoping it stays this way

but the dream you gave is while im awake
even when i drive the miles to you
i mean, what do you know at 18
except the world is my oyster
and you are my pearl
the solid graceful thing made out of
bad gas

I dont need a summer song to get me through
anything
because everything is easy when i have you
except you
curse you

    dig it.

    I really like the unique imagery that you use. It's not a "typical" love poem. It captures a very personal view.
