tempted star @ oh wow, this one is old
tempted star

I never mentioned what I should’ve said but I thought you knew.
I wanted what wasn’t real and you weren’t who I thought you were.,br> I held tight to my heart. You didn’t hear, but I heard every word.
Dignity can be denied, held in backpack for a better time.
Time trusts us with our wounds, he promised we’d heal and we have.
I hurt in places you’ve never seen.
My center’s softer than I’ll ever show.
Sometimes we hide in our heads what no one else is supposed to know.
I have to express what isn’t more than a midnight rendezvous to someone sympathetic.
While the rest of the world is restless I’m still looking for the right words I lost along the way.
I lost it all and started new, I found someone special, someone like you.
You fell like a star into my atmosphere, took up lots of space in my heart, my world is wonderful and beautiful because you’re in it.
The sun shines when you smile, The ground shakes when you sigh.
Lightning lights the sky when you weep.
My insides tie in knots knowing that you’re totally torn between breaking down and breaking new ground.
Inside your life, like a foot in a shoe, I fit.
When I was pushed aside you pulled me in to a safer shore, Here is where I’ve found a home, where I can be myself.
You made me feel transparent, tore the truth from my clenched teeth.
Taught me to trust, and walked through my walls.
I feel, for the first time, finally free,
Like someone genuinely cares about me, Thanking you with words would never work, so let me show you what I mean.
