#Woman
I still don’t know What I should think What do you want me To think? Are we only friends?
When you think That I’m staring off into space I’m thinking About space itself How space and time interlock
Of all the girls Who throw themselves At you Daily Why did you
The rope is thin Burning your hands As you try to climb To the top You think
Even when I wanted to run Straight for the hills I stayed here Taking my pills Pretending there are birds
How can something so right Be so wrong In so many ways? At the same time? Concurrent sentence
If only it Were as easy As it is for everyone else Nobody is Talking to me
I like the way you greet me As though you’re waiting to meet m… Without the opportunity Of doing so discreetly You ought not to do
Lingering thoughts Sometimes overwhelm me I can’t even seem to Close my eyes Without seeing you
If you even knew About me... Everything... As you said you wanted to... You might make assumptions
You swing on the trapeze With finesse With ease Not even the breeze Sways you
I have seen some Superficial people Who come out and say Exactly what they want All the time knowing
Eat the pumpkin Stupid parrot Stop mocking me And calling me names I hate playing those games
If you could see it in my eyes The subtle refusal Because it might not feel right to… Not at this moment Not at this point in time
Be honest with me And I’ll be honest with you Like I had intended to I always want to Be true
