Blind

Am I your latest captive,
waiting for you to love me,
waiting for you to care?

Do you laugh when I walk away?
Find joy in my sorrow,
when you look around
at all the whores in line?
Do you think of me then?

Toss me aside when you
no longer need me.
I am you old rag doll
used up and dirty
from things you never told me.

The truth of your confidence
lies in your conquests,
filth in the bottom of the sink.
You laugh it off.
Like angel dust,
it all just goes to your head.

Love

For every dream I've sent aloft
the moon waits brightly in the sky.
For every wish I've made
a falling star has learned to fly.

For every time I've held your hand
a part of me has become brave.
For each kiss you’ve given me-
a second’s connection that I crave.

For each moment we have laughed
my heart rests gently its place.
For butterflies that dance inside
a smile spreads across my face.

For every day you've spent with me
a tiny prayer is said at night,
for hope of a daydream realized
and one who’s finally worth the fight.
