Lass,
"How wonderful life is..."
Ya always wanted me to play ya your favorite song, didn't ya?
Well enjoy it because it's probably all you'll ever get.
I don't write poetry anymore, though I'm a natural bard
but I'm not as fond of Shakespeare as you think.
You can sit there and stare all ya want,
I don't mind, in fact I just don't care
I could strum this hollow wood all day...
What a funny thing, Apathy, but doesn't it drive ya insane?
I can sense it does by the way you shudder at my pain
My reasons for loving ya may have diminished,
but apparently your feelings never did.
And I'm not quite sure if I was counting on them to, or not.
Strange how the pressure stays even after I've given up.
Don't worry, Lass,
Because every time I hear ya sound like crying
Ya know I always end up making ya laugh...
Its just jokes and words, but they mean so much to me
because sometimes I think that's all I have to please you
but when I look into your eyes you make me feel like something more...
Now this heavy heart of yours...I told you I was feeble...
And I've heard many stronger men could not lift it,
So what do you expect me to do with it?
Now hun, I don't mean to sound bitter,
Well, actually, maybe I do
But whats the point of Love,
if everyone just wants to screw?
Even you, Darlin'
But lets be rebels
and just keep on lovin'
because you don't seem to be done loving me yet...
But what was so easy to give you in the moonlight
has become exhaustively strenuous during the day
And how much more will you take of me
Till you've had enough?
Were you surprised I remembered you
after all these years?
Are you still surprised I call just to say I love ya
after all these months?
Because I hear your faltered breath,
But I don't know if its from awe or hesitation...
Or maybe your just about to cry again.
And you keep saying a day will come
when you'll finally run into my arms
But I keep repeating a day will arrive
when I decide to stop this shallow breathing
And I see time ticking, watching the numbers turn
And each day is coming closer and closer...
So lets just sit back and see who wins this race, Eh?
So don't sound so devastated and dismayed
when you hear me say I'm a piece of shit
I'm fine with accepting it, why can't you?
You say, because you love me? Well, I suppose it could be true...
