NEVER-ENDING SLEEP
|
These dreams--so vivid in their intensity Though not exactly accurate in their declaration of the future But I keep seeing this person whenever I close my eyes But could this be real-- these images which fill my head Why must my conscience torture me with this sweet creature that cannot be mine For while I see him often-- and still he smiles at me Our worlds are too different to ever really combine Yet I see him in front of my eyes and I see him in my dreams These two very different visions leave me nowhere but frustration Still--as confused and irritated as I am I can't get him out of my head With his sweet blue eyes and his endearing smile While I know our worlds can never collide--I also know That he'll still smile at me in passing and he'll love me in my dreams |

DESENSITIZED

Maybe I should expect this-- it's not like it's the first time Again--you made me a promise that you had no intention of keeping I really don't know why you feel the need to constantly get my hopes up When all you continue to do is lose my trust in you I never wanted our friendship to turn out this way But it's beginning to look like you're leaving me no choice How can I understand this when you offer no explanation The only thing you try to give is an empty apology Do you have any clue how much this is bothering me? You really don't understand-- that I can't take this anymore Maybe you can live like this-- but I know that I cannot |
