Words


I've got so many things on my mind tonight



And for some reason poetry is the only friend I have at 1 a.m.


This feeling of wanting to climb out on my roof and watch the stars has to mean something I guess


But all I really know is that I'm lonely
 
 


When I'm sitting with the light on, eating the chocolate you gave me, all I can see is confusion


But if I turn off the light I can't see anything at all


Why is that scarier than knowing what is to come


I don't want to be that girl anymore that sits up all night talking to the moon; pondering if you care because I know you care




All I see is how you never talk to me


But what I don't see is that to you, your words don't mean anything


One person's perspective never taught someone else about the entire world


The moon has told it's secrets to more than one man



I guess that maybe I wanted you to teach me everything about the world


And I guess maybe you knew you couldn't


So instead of walking me to my car, you left me at the door


Maybe because you felt like the moon's words were more powerful 
 
 
 
 
But you know what the moon told me


Nothing. It said nothing.  


That's when I realized that it's words are not the most important thing to me anymore


It's yours

m.a.a
