Do You

by Paige   Jun 18, 2007


Your eyes pierced through me that first day
You instilled fear in my heart, but I liked it.
I jumped the first opportunity I got.

I jumped right off the edge
Even though it is my favorite place to stay.
I gave everything up,
I left it all behind for what I thought would work.
I left it all behind
Because
I was convinced I could make you love me.

You knew that. You knew what I had planned.

You were a mistake
And you know it.
Looking back, I never wanted it this way
And you know that.
You knew how I acted, how I thought
You didn't know me.
You didn't want to know me.
You knew I didn't want to, but you know I did.

Just tell me you never want to see me again.
Just tell me to retreat back to the edge
Just tell me to never jump off again.
Ever again.

You were a mistake to me
But of all the mistakes
I loved you the most.
As the seconds progressed to form real tangible time
Extremely extended time now.
It still hurts.
And everyone knows you're the only one that can pierce my heart.
You've been used as a weapon of drastic proportions against me
Did you want it this way?

I know you warned me
But I didn't heed your warnings
I just didn't.

Do you see me now?
I'm in the raw, I see you
But do you see me now?
Now do you?
Do you see me?

I see you
I dont want to
But I do
