Contradictions (Push and Pull)

First you light it
Then you send it
First you fight it
Then defend it
You won't admit it
But you can't end it
You say you can't share it
But you're willing to lend it
And while you straighten it
You think of how to bend it
I think you finally understand it
But you still pretend it

How long does that last?
Not more than a moment
When your eyes betray your heart
And your body, traitorous fool
Isn't capable of ignoring this
And your mind, it gives no rest,
But replays every single little death
When her heart stops beating
And the world is at rest
All you can see is her
And you're at your best

You hear all her words
You dream of what you'd do
If only people knew
How it torments you

You feel shacked
This prison can't be escaped
And so it's better to just miss her
Than for this to be erased.

The angry woman

I am the angry woman I'm bleeding white-hot rage My fury of tears will drown you You should all feel afraid.  My tongue is poised for lashing My feet are here to crush My lungs are filled with fire I cannot stop the rush. My skin is scalding ashes  Of a burning, ember heart My words beat down like hail My screams are lightning darts. Watch me drink the poison And wait for you to die I am the angry woman But you all think I lie. 

The others

I only change for those who let me But they're too quick to forget me Already out the door As I want to give them more I'm only as happy as I choose But everyone tries to make me They're always trying to please me Instead of telling me what's wrong Am I too sentimental?  I don't ask too much.  Do I sound too certain?  They worry I will get resentful.  All the things they ask of me When in the end, I let it be I've never been one for convincing But they all say I'm a charmer It's only because I run warmer Than what they knew before I don't fake my emotions I'm no manipulator And if you got to know me,  You'd see I'm not a taker I don't fight, I won't fight I just laugh and I cry And I try real hard To make it look I'm alive.  Maybe I hide too much They can never tell my bluff I'm not misunderstood The moment they get me They're not sure if they should. Hope by hope I drip away Fading colour on my lips One by one I lose ...

Parallel lines

We’re a pair of parallel lines You’re just like me We’re on the same path But we don’t ever meet You talk to all my friends  but me I guess I’m not that nice after all You You’re in the house up on a cloud Me I’m on a mission.
