I wish you were a weaker man
Maybe just for me
But I admire the high moral standards
you hold yourself to
It’s yet another reason I like you.
There’s no winning for me
When you’re not mine

Your Attention
I’m looking for your attention
even though I know she has all yours
Maybe its for the best
and I should Give up the rest
Of everything we could have been.
-Nov 2020
Used and Abused Heart
She just likes the attention you give
But refuses to claim you as hers.
You’re a warm body to waste time with.
You gave her your heart
And she squeezes it in her hand
Testing its tenderness.
Hated You
Do you wish I had hated you?
Make it easier so you didn’t have to risk any hurt
No late night phone calls, no deep conversations
where you let down walls and I open up my heart a crack
I wish I had hated you too
and feel nothing as I walk away.
instead you’re charming with your goofy smile.
warm and bright, showing your strength in so much struggle.
The artist
I have plenty of messages blowing up my phone
but none from you and you’re the only one on my mind.
Low quality guys sending low quality pictures
I need a true artist like you to show me
some beauty when my eyes are shut too tight.
You came suddenly, unexpectedly but perfectly.
The best moments are the ones that take you by surprise
so I hope you stay and sing through the cracks of my heart
A You and an I
I feel.
You think.
I lean closer.
You pull away.
I want more.
You are stuck in the comfort.
I am shoving
You forward.
There will never be an us because
we won’t work.
It will always be a You and an I.
Scared Love
Even though I understand it, the distance still hurts.
scared of vulnerability, scared of abandonment.
I’m scared too, but either we try or say we never knew.
Love is always risky, that doesn’t mean it won’t pay off.
Wish I Could
You’ve only just gone
but I miss you already.
I told you to Take care and be good
I know I can’t hold you now, but just know I wish I could.
Heartache Storming
I haven’t known you long
but something about being without you just feels wrong.
That’s why these tears are forming
warning that there’s heartache storming.
Am I just setting myself up to fall again?
Tell me, is it safe to fall in love with you?
cold
The snow continues to fall, while I’m inside
hurting like Hell because you haven’t called.
I’m wondering if you ever really cared at all.
I can finally stop playing the fool
who thought we would always be together.
I’ve been through enough cold weather
and heart ache.
