Posturing

lyrics: 


Can't look you in the eyes

Overwhelmed with shame

Scowling, Head down

Doubts compensate

For all the good I've failed to complete

My anger I cannot defeat

 

Can't greet you with a smile

No longer at peace with who I am

Nervous, Head down

Posturing as confidently as I can

For all the good I've failed to complete

To the sorrow my love concedes

 

All I ever wanted was your happiness

And all I have to cling to are these regrets


All I ever wanted was your happiness (and I'm sorry)

All I ever wanted was your happiness (I failed us both)

All I ever wanted was your happiness (and I'm sorry)

All I ever wanted was your happiness (I failed us both)

Another hauntingly beautiful

Another hauntingly beautiful tale.

I just..... makes me want to dance in the rain and write poems about dancing in fading light.

Not sure why.

I really really like this poem, though.

Love,
LovingLovelace


If your mirror doesn't find you one of the most beautiful people it has ever seen, punch it and find a better mirror.
