An Unrelenting Flow of Thought

by Emma Carnage   Feb 10, 2007


With the lights out I can see and all I see is everything I hope for. I wish I could close my eyes and once I open them you'd be standing there with that smile in your eye and I could run my hands through your hair just like before and maybe things could be okay again and I could look up into your eyes and go just a little into your mind because I never could tell everything you were thinking and you could always be such a mystery but I never wanted to stop exploring because you were the only thing worth knowing then and now if I look into those eyes again you'll still be such a mystery that I want to figure out but there's more worth knowing now and I can't spend all my time on you because now I've changed and can see my ambitions and my dreams and although I would love to follow them with you now it's not so required for you to come with and maybe that's for the better because I don't know if you would go anyway and I wish so much that I could just be in those arms again even if you don't wish the same and even though sometimes it makes me cry I'm still okay here by myself but maybe one day I could be okay with you and you could be okay with me because love doesn't always have to be breathtaking and extraordinary and sometimes it's just okay and I would give anything to have that back because you're the boy who I see myself with and just maybe I'm the girl you could see yourself with if you just try a little harder and take a chance with me because this is love, baby. Plain and simple.
