Not the right one

Not the right one,
Not the right one,
The words keep echoing in my head,
I back away,
I try to hide,
But what's this feeling,
Ominous dread,
It gnaws inside,
Walk the wrong path,
Take the wrong turn,
From rose bushes,
To a stake,
Burned,
I clutch the memories,
But they bite,
I wipe the tears,
Yet they pour inside,
Still it echoes in my head,
Not the right one,
You'll bleed again.

Another season?

If I told you I loved you,
I wonder what you'd say,
Possibilities,
Endless as always,
And I wonder why,
If it will last this way,
For all my days,
Or are you another season,
I can only chase.

Because you make me feel

Do you know how happy you make me feel when you say you'll miss me?
Still I wonder if you say that to all your friends as well,
What's taking so long for you to see,
I never expected this,
But then it's hard,
For me to sleep,
Easy.

Because you make me feel.

I have returned

I thought I'd miss you,
Really,
In the days that followed,
Hollow-eyed,
I remembered you,
And all that transpired,
Between this year and the last,
I stopped being,
For a while,
I let you get the better of me,
I became yet another victim,
Self-blaming,
Hurting,
A whinging child,
And then one day I woke up,
Realized the cage was gone,
Then I flew alone,
Out to the skies I missed once,
I have returned.
