Inferno
One day, sooner or later, I figured I would learn That when you play with fire, You might get more than burned. I should have learned my lesson, Since the day it first began. But my mind is somewhat stubborn, And it takes longer to understand. Sometimes it doesn't sink in Until my skin is scorched and thin. And by then it's not too long Before the heat reaches within. And now my heart's been set aflame, Leaving scars too deep to deny. Still, knowing me, I'll light the match And give you one more try.
For A Moment
I watched you, Just for that moment. A few seconds.
And I could see Everything. The things I hoped, But inside, doubted.
And I could see That you don't see me The way I see you.
And I could see The missing love That was never there And never should be.
And I could see, On your face, All of the words That it hurt to say, Just as much as to hear.
And I could see Why You weren't looking back at me.
Something in Your Eyes
Catches my heart And steals a beat. Shines from within, And sends a sign to me That you know And can see All there is Inside of me. The secrets held In every touch. The untold love, The undying crush. The starving hunger In my heart, Still as strong As the very start. The glances that linger, Sometimes too long. This incomplete feeling That drags along, Lying in my heart From day to day, Whispering the words That I cannot say. And its in that moment When youre eyes meet mine That all of these feelings Surface to mind Reminding me why These secrets I hold Are still, even now, Better left untold.
