Finding The Woman I'm Meant To Be

Piece By Piece

She hopes you’ll drive by
See the shadows in the light
Taking over your mind
Breaking your heart

She hopes you’ll be there
When he brushes away her hair
You’ll see how he cares
Breaking your heart

She hopes you’ll be around
When the windows are down
And they’re playing around
Breaking your heart

She hopes to cross your mind
As he holds her at night
Touches soft and light
As your heart breaks

She hopes you’ll remember
All your time together
When he asks for her forever
As your heart breaks

She wishes he was true
The way she wished for you
She prays he’s superglue
To heal the heart you broke.

Keys Of Consistency

Adventure is a fleeting moment
A memory you can look back on and smile
A rush of adrenaline
A moment in time

But memories fade
And moments pass
And after every adventure –
You go home
You feel safe
You feel comfortable
And if you’re lucky,
consistency is waiting for you

Consistency is the key to happiness
Consistency is home

So, for me, I’m not looking for adventure
I don’t need to feel the adrenaline rush
I don’t need another passing memory
I don’t need another fleeting moment

My heart needs a home
My soul needs comfort
My life needs consistency.

Mind Over Matter

I will always love you
as the man you
could never
become.

Unpredictability

Like clockwork
Every two weeks
You decide to fade away

And just like clockwork
Another two weeks pass
Before you say you’ve changed

Like clockwork
The words you promise me
Never match your actions

And just like clockwork
Every lie burns me
Leaving me in ashes

Like clockwork
Two weeks have passed
And you’ve decided to leave

And just like clockwork
I swallow my pride –
Praying for unpredictability.

False Hope

There’s a silent killer
It creeps into your mind
And when he says something,
When he feeds you those lines

There’s a silent killer
Telling you to believe him
And maybe, just maybe, this time
He really means it

That tiny little voice
Your mind has tried to kill
Knows the things to say –
Knows the strings to pull

That little quiet voice
Lingering in the back
Tells you he’s sincere
He’ll give all he can

Anything to make it work
To give “us” another try
To be who he was at the beginning
To be that great guy

The guy who made you fall
Made you smile and made you laugh
The guy who took you to dinner
The guy who texted you back

He’ll do whatever it may take
Because he misses you so much
He can’t imagine anyone else
Receiving all your touches

So the silent killer
Creeps into your mind
And maybe even convinces you
This time he isn’t lying

But it’s a silent killer
Killing you more each day
Every day’s a slower death
Stealing your breath away

This silent killer has a name
The silent killer is false hope
Because he will never be –
things will never be –
the way they were before.
