In Love
Whenever you come around and smile that smile the world turns upside down.
My heart starts beating so fast and I lose my concentration.
I'm so in love with you.
When you come from behind and wrap your arms around me, I feel safe and loved by you.
I want to be with you all the time and never leave.
When I'm not with you all I do is think about you wishing I was with you.
I'm so lost in love with you, when I'm with you it's like I'm in a whole another world just you and I happy in love and safe.
I love you so much and I never want this feeling to go away. ...

always was, always will be
It always was, it always will be.
Who am I now?
Much different than the girl
Back there?
Isn’t that part of the fear –
To find I’d barely changed, barely grown
Despite the years, and the tears –
Stagnant.
Dead at whatever.
Go back, Carole King,
Florence and The Machine - “how could anything bad ever happen to you?”
Indeed, Selene, what the fuck, Selene –
Baby Selene, Teen Selene and her
Florence and The Machine,
I’m so sorry, darling.
Twirl around in your dreams,...

First Goodbye
I cried for you
The tears you couldn't cry, I shed.
I cried for you.
My heart cried out, but you withdrew.
I waited for your words, instead
Your love for me was left unsaid
I cried for you.
The tears you couldn't cry, I shed.
I cried for you.
My heart cried out, but you withdrew.
I waited for your words, instead
Your love for me was left unsaid
I cried for you.

Number One
Try so hard,
Get so far,
Taking it all the way to the end
And when,
In the end...
Trying and pushing
And putting my face to the grindstone
Days and days of endless working
To get to the top
Then just
Stop.
Number one,
One and done.
Then what?
At the end of the road
No where to go
On the edge of a cliff
Previously covered by a mist
Obscuring the view
Of a path to no where.
Number one,
One and done.
How come?
Disappointment
Contempt
That...

Unreciprocated
Your first word lingers in my mind,
Your self has no clear kin or kind,
Your entirety is all I'd ever wish to find,
For all I'd wish to find is beyond my reach,
But when you came I was forced to teach,
Myself to learn and not to preach,
An urge not to teach but to beseech,
Adages of time and tide,
Voyages narrow and wide,
I claimed to pay them no heed, I merely lied,
Her smallest words they burned my brain,
Word's she's forgotten, send me insane,
Her lips and skin cause so much pain,
For I'll never touch what will never grace my...

Your entirety is all I'd ever wish to find,
For all I'd wish to find is beyond my reach,
But when you came I was forced to teach,
Myself to learn and not to preach,
An urge not to teach but to beseech,
Adages of time and tide,
Voyages narrow and wide,
I claimed to pay them no heed, I merely lied,
Her smallest words they burned my brain,
Word's she's forgotten, send me insane,
Her lips and skin cause so much pain,
