though you are cold and distant,
i cant help but be called to you
your frigid embrace plays with my hope
of what could've been

though you hold me tight,
i cant help but feel our distance
you dont understand me
nor do i, you

i feel so sick...

just a bird stuck in a cage
a misiscule brass cage with no swing
caught in this trap for eternity
all these locks, but no keys
all these loosely-woven bars,
but no hole big enough to sqeeze through
you catch me at every turn

the fire of my spirit
you extinguish with every breath, every word
every moment im not with you,
my illness gets better

i wish it were a medical illness
so it may be healed with a couple pills
how do you heal heartache?
alcohol? drugs? cutting?
no, thats not like me
no emo stunt will cure this...
only worsen it

so whats happened to that tug youve had on my heart from the beginning?
the butterflies in my stomach?
the stuttering?
the burning cheeks?

all gone,
your touch has cooled them all
meaningless, emotionless moments of life
i wish i could cry out from all the frustration you bring me
but no tear is willing to fall
i have no anger and no sadness
but i wish i did so i could rid myself of you

you wont let me forget you,
youve stolen the light,
darkened the fairytales,
strengthened every villian in my nightmares

all i see now are nightmares
well the title pretty much gives it all away.. its jsut a string of thoughts. lines i had to write down and i just filled in the empty spaces in between. this is not about me though, ive never been in a relationship like this, btu the "bird in a tiny brass cage with no swing" part is completely me lol because well im very restless lately but have no where to go.

p.s.
nightmares are bad :( ;P
