i feel as if my heart is ready to explode
every time you look at me.
and i think that
if you just got to know me,
you'd see how alike we are.
and how great this could be.

d.l.b.

i hope that someday,
you find a beautiful girl.
and i hope she loves you
even more than i did.
and i hope you don't treat her
the way you treated me.

d.l.b.

i want someone to hold me close,
and tell me everything will be okay.
i want someone to make me laugh,
and never be sad again.
i want someone like you.

d.l.b.

my heart is dead weight sitting in my chest.
it beats only for itself,
and no one has the ability to capture it.

d.l.b.

there's something inside of me
that doesn't want to let you go.
it keeps holding on
to every last word you ever said to me.
it reaches out and grabs you,
and pulls you into the deepest parts of my heart.
it weaves you into my blood,
and pushes me down with thoughts of you.

d.l.b.

oh my love,
there's no need to be discouraged.
i am right here.
i will protect you.

d.l.b.

i'm getting nowhere with you.
i try to reach out to you,
but you push me away.
what am i doing wrong?

d.l.b.
