Beautiful

Beauty infatuates me. Swallows my attention like the sun does the sky. It's amazing how the most unusual things stand out inside. I am calling out for something to believe in yet I am feeling so left behind. She watches me with weary eyes and I watch the time. Little does she know it is her beauty that captivates my mind. I'm listening to her words, she questions the things I've learned, and when I run I know exactly where I'd like to turn. Where does all of it go, the time, the lies, the way I feel inside. I like the taste but it was the words I hated, and now I know that I got exactly what I created. It wasn't necessary to take it this far. I read into things so personally, something gets a hold of me, and now I feel it. It's happening all over again. I might be losing, but in the end I'll win. I want to see the colors that stand out, I want to fit in with the vivid dreams that you can't black out. I want to become what is left when you remove all the doubt. |
