I Love Someone

 

I love someone

I never thought I could

Never thought it would happen to me

Don’t deserve it you see

Bad things leave a bitter taste behind

Was left with the mess

Left with just me to find

I love someone

But she’ll never know

I can never say, never tell

I live with the sorrow

With the nothing of tomorrow

Promises made, so easily broken

To myself, to her, to the silence

That follows my waking moments

One day I’ll see

With the clarity that you deny me

Till then I perch, wait on

This gingered sea

I love someone who is so bright

Why would she ever look at me?

I have the face that holds a thousand questions

None of them the right ones

You wish to understand

Rip out your heart and hold it in

Your hands

Then maybe you’ll get what is in my land

I love someone

And they don’t love me

Its a hard place to be

Its hard being me

I want and I have thoughts

But only she can see them

With blind eyes she sees

I ask her and she denies

That’s okay, this life, this love

I’m used to it by now

Never knew pain like this

Didn’t realise I was alive

Take me, take me now

I love someone

She never realised

The sky grows old

The stars grow tired

I love someone

But she never tried

Seek and you shall find,

How youthful the look in my eyes

Can’t deny, have no strength to reason why

Just know.....

I love someone

Who never thinks twice

Tell me God, tell me Whoever

Tell me its not wrong

To hang my sheets out in the morning sun

Let them sway, let them sing

A murmur of a melody, a long forgotten song

I want to wish but the strength is gone

I love

I love someone
