I am
...drunken
...Hopeful
...an idiot
...still a dreamer
...cooking up something special
...going out of my way to please you
...ever vigilant
...grayer, older, non the wiser
...still in love
...unsure why you couldn't talk to me
...hopeless and hopeful
...still searching for that ultimate peak
...afraid of finding the end
...done for now, goodnight
It's never the same
It's never as good
We want to relive the ways
And feel that we should
It's never the same
It doesn't matter
Who's to blame
Emotions scatter
The wind picks up
and sends signals down
The heartbeats quickens
Smiles from lonely frowns
It's all about
What we care for
What we need
the value
in you
And
me
I gave my heart out
for free
You held it in your hand
Briefly
But you let it go
I never let you go
I still want you
to want me
Sleep comes easy for some
But others yearn for forgiveness
Love and loss of abandon
Measures never quite full
But enough to sate
The wanting heart
I drink you in
You push away again
The dance continues
Different beats
Different songs
Same measure
