Miserable Couplets

I've crossed that dripping red line. I'll be in your dream as you were in mine.

Baby, don't look me in the eye. You know green always got me high. Baby, I'd take you to the moon - Do anything to make you swoon Baby, all you had to do is let me try.

I didn’t change for you.  I changed because, through you, I saw the possibility of a better me.  I hoped, through me, you could realize a better you.   I dreamed that, together, we could be more than the sum of our parts - a greater good than either had been before and either would be without the other.  I changed.  You didn’t.  You and I never became we.  I don’t understand what happened, but at least I didn’t change for you.

I have nostalgia for places I haven't even left yet. How did my life come to be so full of regret?

The gas light came on miles ago Eyes searching, desperately, for life’s faint glow This one way road is dark and cruel, All I can do is burn the last drops of fuel.

Let me die in peace Free me from this lifelong lease

Peer through hazel windows into a house of lies, Invariably fooled by her lovely disguise.

Nowhere else in the infinities of time and space Does there exist such a beautiful, brunette framed face.

Flesh and sweat, two burning coals Forgetting, together, our aching souls.
