Ouch.

It hurts to be me

And people

Mistake my smile for happiness

Preclude

My pain

From my day to day

It hurts

to be without you

So much

It hurts

So much

I know there aren't words

To tell you

Because if there were

I would have found them

You know

How I love words

Baby do you know

How my love is the underlying melody

The quiet storm

That won't conform

You've met me

So you know

But

Do you know

How each step you take

Echoes in my heart

How the breath

Breaks and creates

The way we always did

The way

We always do

Did you know

I have died a thousand deaths

And still

I want to die again

To prove

The purity

Of my love
