Forever used to be,
Now a distant thought...
They love you for your spirit
Accepting of your flaws...
Never really knew
Why the wind blew...
Everything you want for,
Nothing that you need...
I wallow in the darkened streets
Where ghosts whisper my name...
Dream of love, when night blankets the earth...
You shall not touch it, it won't know you...
I lay upon this grassy mound
To talk...
I whisper to the stars
In hopes they'll hear my cry...
How do you reveal your darkest self?
Not your skeletons that hang boldly in the closet...
"But she's a woman"
The final thought...
A thousand miles away
Your eyes still sparkle...
If truth fell from your lips
As often as a lie...
