For you, my friends.. #1
1.
So maybe it didn't work out
the way i thought it might
but then again, i only dreamed
and i didn't expect it to come into fruition.
I still love you tons as a friend
and i'd like it to be how it is
for a long time.
just please, don't hate me for what i tried to do.
2.
So maybe things got hard
and i was there in your times of need
to wipe your forehead
kiss your cheek.
the strongest relationship. ended so fast.
i don't want you like that now.
i just need your strength in friendship.
3.
In our own little dreams
we had the best times
and i adore you
i consider you a very close friend
i don't want to hurt you
but know
i don't want to be your girl again.
4.
I have my whole life to consider things with you
don't spring eternity with you on me now
i'm 15
i don't settle.
you're probably the most wonderful guy i've ever got so close to
and i don't ever want to lose you in my life
but let's keep as friends
in case we hurt each other.
5.
"Chin up. you know things'll get better".
you've told me that countless times
and i think it's my turn.
I love you so much, my dear
so keep your faith, as i know you will
and life'll take you where it wants to.
be safe.
i'll be here.
In a blur of shadows
his face not seen
some light appears
and he is here.
with stars around his head
like the stars around his bed
he seems to float as if on air.
In your complicated existance
you show such grace
in every little movement
you show such grace
arms wrap around my presence
without him lifting a limb
security and comfort
pass through my very skin
such depth
to what seems everyday
such brilliance
in him..
such grace.
Why are you hiding behind your star, dear one?
so afraid of what she might bring
she wouldn't want to hurt the precious thing that is you.
Why are you hiding behind your star?
with your beautiful hands in front of your face
trying to ponder, compose, bring all your feelings into words.
Hiding from something you're fearing so much
hiding from something you've misread
hiding from her - because you think
she wants something from you..
that she'll be the same as you've seen her in the past
..with her other men.
why are you hiding behind your star?
don't you realise she's hiding behind hers, too?
don't you realise she's afraid of hurting you?
of breaking your brittle and fragile stature?
i think she wants to see a little of your world
i think she wants to get into your heart..
...not your pants.
Falling through the fabric of space
after taking a risk which caused some pain
He comes, grabs her hand and pulls her to safety.
He will not let her fall.
Things are not completely the same, yet they will be, soon.
She sings a song just for his ears
he listens, smiles and understands
but does not return the call, to save himself becoming prey.
She won't call another like she does to him,
her friend with such grace, such brilliance,
but she sticks by his side as his friend.
Always his friend.. because she knows that is too precious to lose.
Somewhere over the rainbow..
sang the girl on the stage
singing to the silhouette of a man
sitting at the back of the room.
Dreamer, we dreamed together for a while.
Lost in a world of bright colours and much fun
trying in vain to make a triangle piece fit into a circle hole..
the pieces simply didn't click.
Your world wasn't meant for a girl such as me.
And with gentle hands
and gentle words
the girl for you
will discover you and your world.
Soon.
I watch her sleep
"tangled in bedsheets
and tearstains",
and i try to even imagine
what state her life is in.
Torn and ripped at the seams,
as she clutches at the edges
to try and keep a hold of things.
I am her strength
and i'm her listening ears,
as she spins her life story around me,
trying to make me understand
what she's going through.
She always has time for me,
i'm never in the way
and the favours she has given me
i can never repay.
I watch her sleep
"tangled in bedsheets
and tearstains",
and wish i could take what's hurting her
and bear it myself.
My life is like the night sky
with you as the brightest star,
shining in the middle of it.
My life is like a puzzle
without you, i am incomplete.
My life is like a song
with you as the beautiful melody
i hear when i see you.
My life is what i make it to be
but however it turns out, i want you always in it.
If me talking to you makes you happy
i want to talk forever.
If i could write a song that would really make you beam,
i would sing it forever.
And because you holding me makes some nights easier to take,
i want you to hold me,
forever.
