Stranger tides.

Okay...here's the thing
I figured I would blurt it out...
A solemn word before I scream
Before I inflate
Before I address this sudden urge
...to pray.

I like you
More than I did before.
Now much more...
And I'm spiteful

Because what you said gave me hope
What you said meant I couldn't cope Couldn't cope with being liked back for just a day
I'd love you right back...
if we ever got that far along the road..

But mines a dismal scene
I play with feelings...
Trap my own in porcelain
I'm a fragile, crystal vase:

A parted maze

No directions to follow safe

No one to walk with...

A mile's a lot longer,

Lot further when you've got nothing.

It takes two to feel saved.

Spread across the blank portrait

Everything's clear...and your smiling
