Listen Here to: Two is Better Than One

"I remember what you wore on the first day,
You came into my life,
And I thought hey,
This could be something..."

"Maybe two is better than one,"
But don't think I'm already coming undone.
"There is so much time for [us] to figure out,
The rest of our lives..."
Don't give up hope, that you'll find what you want.

You keep saying, "two is better than one..."
"But I've figured out after all that's said and done..."
Letting me be your friend,
Is better than being none...

As much as everyone wants to be,
Happily coupled up, blissfully unaware of all
these happenings...
I want you to know I will still be a part of your life.
I'll support your triumphs and mishaps no matter what.

You're free to think about what we once had,
But listen to what I'm telling you,
What I hand to you with an open heart,
Is something others who've broken up,
Could rarely ever give.

It is as hard as it is,
Seeing you want something I can no longer perceive.
I just want to make sure, you know that,
You're getting what I believe is fair enough.

"Maybe two is better than one,"
But don't think I'm already coming undone.
"There is so much time for [us] to figure out,
The rest of our lives..."
Don't give up hope, that you'll find what you want.

You keep saying, "two is better than one..."
"But I've figured out after all that's said and done..."
Just being my friend,
Is better than being none...

Eff you. Eff Me.

Hey you. Hey me.

You look upset,

So tell me,

What is going on?

What is making you this way?

Give me some reason,

Give me a reason to stay.

Well, eff you. You eff me.

Effing is enough,

But is enough is enough.

I'm tired of this misery.

Sure it loves company,

But I'm done w/ dwelling here.

You had me once,

But lost me twice.

Shouldn't you of learned by now, my dear?

So, hey you. Hey me.

I called you tonight...

And it's almost three.

I loved you once, but it wasn't enough.

Fly away and grow.

You need to.

And so do I...

We weren't meant to be.

(Don't care about scansion, rhyme, beat, whatever. Simply said: Eff you.)

Heart in Defeat.

11/27/08 12:48am ***written a long, long, time ago.

Listen here: Broken Strings

This long and windy path.

I've come to the end, at last.

No more crossroads with tolls.

No more lost dreams at that.

I do fear my travel's end.

For what purpose of a journey

with nothing to defend?

No room for white horses,

Or faintly damsels in distress.

I've picked up the pieces myself,

Even when it's not my mess.

The moats are drained,

I've weathered through the storms.

As for the ramparts themselves,

They're nothing more than stones.

These lessons learned may all be for naught.

But what my heart's endured, will never be forgot.

Believe me, I've fought this long all on my own.

Pulling down my sleeves, I've slain these dragons alone.

It's true in that I have no room for dramatics.

Been through the ordeal enough to establish,

That my heart has frozen up.

The optimism on pause.

Enough with the formalities now,

I'm done with love.

Yet still my flag waves free,

as tattered as it is.

My pride still intact,

But no more hearts can I give.

Your love was the battle,

My heart was the kill.

Our moment is gone,

Another shall go by,

Before love is let here.
