You've forgotten.

So why don't we just say goodbye
You said you're willing to try again with me
But you're not around
The only constant is me staring at the silence in your sound

You wished me a happy birthday
You were the first one
Sidelined me into thinking we weren't already done
But look where we are, what we've become

You watched me watch your every move
You knew what you were doing all the while
I knew there was something hidden between that smile
You were different to me from the rest just for a while. I guess.

Maybe the rainy days make you crazy
Maybe the time I'm walking on makes me see
What I want from you is not what you see in me
I can't make you dance if you don't hear the beat

I'm lying here staring at the ceiling without you
You're fast asleep probably dreaming of all the other she's in your life
I can't pretend. I want what's real.
Not another broken promise, drawn out memory.

I need what is real. I need to feel alive, I need this to survive.
Fairytales and Disney princesses have it all at the ball
Fiction turns to reality when fantasy is all that's tangible to me
I can't dream this dream without you, if you make up half of it.

Maybe this group of lines will slap you across your pretty little face
Make you think, what a big disgrace I am, this girl really cares
I LET HER DOWN, I broke my promises, I sent her home with empty wishes
Broken glass, starless nights, cloudless skies. YOU'VE FORGOTTEN ME.

Am I who you make me out to be?
I may not be be a reality you've seen in your dreams.

exempli gratia
I've never been with anyone.
I'm not in a band.
I'm not the Nintendo _ _ version, not by a long shot.

Who is this, you ask?
Why, you ask?
The star under your eye will light up a sky.
Your smile is smashing the simplicity in a universe, a universe full of the brevity of a complex system of oil and water.
Tell me truthfully if I disappoint you.
Tell me truthfully if your venn and mine have truly collided, have truly become a collision course with no end in sight.
I haven't forgotten. I haven't forgotten.

There is ONE who loves you. ONE who'll never leave. ONE who will always be there. ONE who is dying for you to love HIM back. ONE who has always been there from the beginning.
Until you love HIM, I cannot love you.
I did at some point, and perhaps still do. But it can never be. It must never be, unless you know HIM first. Then, maybe then...

Imperative it is to have the middle of your name.
I've seen the "DGAF" vanish before my very eyes with less than three.

Someone who loves you said...

I don't know you
But I want you
All the more for that
Words fall through me
And always fool me
And I can't react
And games that never amount
To more than they're meant
Will play themselves out

Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you have a choice
You'll make it now

Falling slowly, eyes that know me
And I can't go back
Moods that take me and erase me
And I'm painted black
You have suffered enough
And warred with yourself
It's time that you won

Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you have a choice
You've made it now

Falling slowly sing your melody
I'll sing it loud
