Dont Look;Just Leap


Maybe there’s no way out of hell,
But it’s a war I have to wage myself.
You’re the reason I’m even here today.
I’ll love the pain when these memories fade.
I wanna go back and relive the dream.
I wanna block it out; wanna hear you scream.
Is it something that I’ll regret?
Or do I want what I can’t get?

If you can live with all my faults,
If I could return a couple of calls,
We wouldn’t need so many walls.
only  cry when the angels fall…

Maybe there’s no way to love this face.
Or see these arms as a resting place.
Could be a fear to commit or of love that’s true,
or a teary smile that sparkles so well on you.
But you’ll never know how much I feel.
We’re not ready for something so real.
Is this something that I’ll regret?
Or do I want what I can’t get?

If you can live with all my faults,
If I could return a couple of calls,
We wouldn’t need so many walls.
only cry when the angels fall…

Maybe there’s no way to move on,
Or erase the masks we both drew on.
But that can’t be true; no moon’s full forever.
If I’m on the last rung, then it can only get better.
I’d sell my soul to bring you to me.
Then again, perhaps we’re where we’re s’posed to be.
Is this something I can’t get?
Or do I want what I’ll regret?

If you can live with all my faults,
If I could return a couple of calls,
We wouldn’t need so many walls.
only cry when the angels fall…

Everyone's got their demons.
We all got somethin' to atone for.

Ethan --
I really like this poem. Then again, I like all of your work. I love the fact that you talk about a love lost and take the blame for it. I think that is a common emotion of most people whenever they a lose a love . .. Good work.

Love,
Crystal
