She tries to understand me
with her eyes
with her ears
But she never sees or hears
The sound of tears falling

Blessed be your caring thought
Wipe the sleep from your face
as darkness comes and covers everything
so must we

Blankets for the city scene
As we stare out into outer space
Nights outside; out of space
To fit our dreams inside
so we lace them in the sky
And use them as our guide

Wrist watches and clock towers
the governing powers of the night
how hours' hand travels around a future of lapse faster
and feelings floods from your fingers onto my face

Blank
subtle
calm
you trace

You wipe the worries away
with handkerchiefs stuffed in pockets
collected and coveted
as sign of sincerity
How you take care of me
But never understand me

sway hearts with words of wishing
bottle the best for a lonely night
Misery is a drunken beggar
always asking if one needs company

How I see you now
Is always how I always will
Times' touch could never take that tact
Days later
I'm still finding my way back
Lost in that moment
and arriving home all alone

Speaker speaks up through the wire
Receiver relays these crumpled messages
Old addresses
and scribbled sentences of memory

Why time tips trust to two troubled teens
and grants their dreams
A night spent together
No cloths no seams

Partially or in full
Just another fool
To think of your heart as a tool
You can't repair me
you don't understand me
It's not fair to see it
any other way

Wishing never wished us here
And bruises never seen
hurt the most
All covering my heart I hollow
Maybe there's tomorrow
There where we forget this sorrow

Growing up and growing old
never told us of faces that unfold
The in between pages of our hearts

No longer are these notes red, unread
throw your eyes, these words unsaid by lips,
upon the paper
searching for what I am
but you never understand me

Bit and pieces
Fragments
Half spoken thoughts
coordinate my actions

I'm in shambles
How impractical and impossible
I exist

And we kiss
but you don't understand me
