The day was long and my mind is weak
I lay here now, tired as I seek

I wanted to tell you how I feel
...

I suppose I should be grateful
For having someone like you
Kind, thoughtful and passionate
You did the best that you could do
...

I miss the way you look at me
In the beginning the world is so sweet and happy
Your eyes are heavy and warm and embracing
Each kiss is like a bit of honey tasting
...

Here I am again
A little girl questioning life
Whether it's right
What should I fight?
...

I may have misspoken
In fear, I held my tongue
I simply craved your presence
And wished you wouldn't run
...

Little girl, look at you
So beautiful and strong
If I can give you golden wings I'd administer them through song
...

Silver mist upon my back
Now I'm here I can't back track

Future is clouded by rain-bowed dreams
...

You must tell me quick
Before I go
Otherwise you'll never know
...

Oh life
You wretched thing
If I were capable, with no hesitation
Out the window, you, I'd sling
...

I dreamt of you last night
You were staring at me
A reflection of myself
Laid out simply
...

Jealousy, like a despicable cur
Wound and bound itself deep within her

She told herself she could maintain its wrath
...
