The Sailor's Knot

Oh how I wish that I could run

That I could run away with you

But even though I love you so

There is nothing I can do

Day by day, plan by plan

I scheme a way to flee

We are so close to setting sail

So close to being free

But alas my love, we are tied down

And so our sails can't fly

Even though we have the wind

Time is not on our side

Through The Back

BANG!!

Like a line drive to the face

A bullet shot, straight and true

With a fast and deadly pace.

Hollow-pointed words arranging in your mind

"CLICK" - The mouse pulled the trigger

And you left me behind.

Out from behind a shoulder

Frozen iced and cold

The metal speeds through my back

Blood runs red and bold.

I turn to see my shooter

And I am weakened at the knees

Only, not by love this time

But by the blood you draw from me.

Hope and made me blind

Alas, now I can see

That even though I declared my love

You never did love me.

Your secrets were intended

To soften up the blow

But your secret shot went through my back

Rang loud, and now I know

That as I am brought down

As I fall upon my knees

As my blood escapes my chest

And my shirt soaks red with ease

As my eyes are opened

And I hear your last reply

You take his hand, whisper, "I'm sorry"

And leave me there to die.

Don't Say You Love Me

Games with my mind

But maybe you didn't mean to play

But whether or not you meant to

It's hurting anyways

Love is blind 

Therefor I couldn't see

That the one you loved

Wasn't me

Oh that day of my eyes first opening

Began that day of my hopes closing

And when those doors begin to shut

Darkness seems unavoidable ... but

A new light will shine through a window unseen

And now for escape, I now have a means

I'll unlock it, open it, and climb on through

And I'll look for someone to love

Who'll love me back too...
