A Love So Kind
A stir of emotions, thoughts racing through-
Can't help but keep my mind on you.
Giving a little, in hopes of a lot,
I'm praying I am good enough
While watching eyes that watch me back,
I wait for cues on which to act.
This touch and go is terrifying
In shades of grey, I search the underlying..
For reasons you may change your mind,
In hopes I may find out in time..
To turn and run like I had planned to,
Though I don't want this piece to fall through.
And while I see I need you, I am always hiding.
So in you I take this chance, and to you I am confiding.
Love me slowly, a love so kind.
And please don't leave my heart behind.

Ace of Hearts
Go on and cut me to the quick-
Please just get it over with.
I'm standing here with arms outstretched,
Heart on my sleeve, yes I'm a wreck.
I know this really isn't me at all,
But I'm mid-way down a bright freefall.
So take my heart and break it, too
If that is what you're meant to do..
And leave me later to my solitude,
But not before this night's pursued.

Addict
I feel like an addict deprived of a fix.
Oh, it's time again.
I'm fighting the tears that just aren't coming
I consider the loss, but I feel nothing.
I'd rather be anywhere that wasn't here
Too many memories in your absence, I fear.
I'd rather be fucked up than thinking of you.
I can't stand the let down when your plans fall through.
I even looked for you today..
But I saw I was alone, and I looked away.
I knew you wouldn't be there but it didn't matter.
I needed the flash of hope before my faith shattered.
So thank you for giving what I didn't need:
Another addiction and a hateful seed.
But somehow I know despite my efforts
I'll keep it here with me forever.

Am Yours
Between these promises and these memories
In the midst of this it's just you and me
And if I had to guess then surely I would say
That I'm headed where I'd not aimed to stray
But I've got to throw this out there- that I am not afraid
And in every time of doubt I look on to better days
So forgive me for my weaknesses and pardon all my sins
I am not the perfect girl that you thought might exist
But I'm standing here right now
And I am letting all this out
I give myself to you
Because you're all I'd ever hoped for
And I am not unsure
You are all I hoped for
And I, at last, am yours
