Graveyard of Reveries

love song

"Roses are red, violets are blue

My whole world stops, when I'm looking at you"

When you're sitting at the top, play the songs you wrote for me,

Many eyes on you, but yours only for me.

I'd lean on you playing the guitar,

Perfecting your keys as you poured out your heart.

I'm sitting beside you, listening

Just how much one tune can make me feel such things

But like any song, they end

Like the last page that says "the end".

I'll turn the radio on,

And hear you sing that same love song.

A chill then runs down my spine,

I don't think I can sleep tonight,

Hearing it everywhere ruins my mind.

I'd see you on T.V,

Where our love's just another cup of tea.

When you sing the same song

Did another come along,

Or is it nothing at all,

Nothing at all anymore?



Memories last, memories fade,

I'm originally a line from the verse you erased.

When you think about me, do you hope I'm okay?

Or have you regretted the art that we made?

I leaned on you playing the guitar,

Perfecting your keys as you poured out your heart.

Now you sing alone as they sing along,

Do you think about writing me a break-up song?



Sometimes I wish we weren't so different,

I wish I wasn't so mature.

To think that we're better off parted,

Sadly, I really am sure.

I'm not a poet, cannot create depth with my pen,

Unlike you in seconds, bringing me to heaven.

I never knew why, but I was scared you'd sing

Something that wasn't right about what I was really feeling.

Someday, I'll listen again,

To all our beginnings before the end.

You sing:

"Roses are red violets are blue,

My whole world stops when I'm looking at you."



I'll turn the radio on,

And hear you sing another love song

And I know it's not mine.

But I can make it through the night.

No matter what, I've made peace with my mind.

I'd see you on T.V,

Where you and your muse are filled up with glee.

When you sing them your song,

I hope they sing along,

You're gonna give it your all,

Please don't let me make you feel small.
