i.
as i sit here in fear of what words will escape from between
the straight line formed by lips, i need to reach out for your
hand but i know that the spaces in between your fingers
are too small small for mine to fit.
ii.
so i walk around with my hands shoved in my jeans, to keep
from reaching up and pulling your smile out of the skies, since
that is the only thing that lights up my nights. and even then
without the blackness of the sky baby you look gorgeous.
iii.
just say it again and mean it, unless it was a fluke. i'm always
susceptible to your lies or are they false truths? baby i'm tongue
tied because the way you grabbed my heart by the strings has
got me mesmerised. but it seems that i'm not the only puppet in
this play on love, just the only dummy that accidentally on purpose
fell in love.
iv.
forever seems like a long time live without you and you have no idea,
but you wouldn't because you're snuggled up next to her and your mind isn't
set on me, on us, and what we would should have been. but of course
you don't fake reminders about nothing that ever existed, well only in
my imagination.
v.
i'm trying to let ago, but babydoll you really got a hold on me
