Map of me

Where'd you find the blueprint of how to love my body?
We must be made of the same substance, for you to know just where to go and what to do.

How did you learn to tap into the furthest recesses of my mind?
Your eyes have burrowed through me, hitting molten core. Have you been here before?

Who taught you how to read me? Am I an open book, or do you just know where to look?
Sometimes I swear you know me better than I do, you're the reflection of all I need to know.

When did you cross the thinnest line that took you into my soul?
I welcomed your invasion and now my privacy is your claimed territory.

Why do you hold the map to this heart you can't possess?
But maybe that's the answer. Freedom leads to never-ending bliss.

Your interest and curiosity take nothing for granted.
You have searched me and not found me wanting.

You navigate the space between us like it's a dance, an art.
You've captivated me - no matter where I go, and what I do.
It's always you. I'm constantly coming back to you.

It hurts to tear myself away. With every backward glance, I want to stay.
There's always something pulling me towards you.
I stand frozen, unable to move. With every look, I'm sinking into you.

Don't be anxious. Don't second guess. Don't worry please.
Trust me when I tell you this is simply the best.

When we're together, I lose all sense of time.
Stuck in every moment, oblivious to my surroundings.
So hard to breathe, when you remind me
With every whisper, every smile, every kiss
When you were fashioned, you were mine.

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.
