Give me a second to just be afraid,
That the world is ending, that you’re gonna leave, that nobody cares,
Then wrap your arms around me,
Chase my fears away,
And tell me I’ll never have to be scared.
~Chase My Fears Away
I was hoping maybe if you saw me alone…
But you passed me twice,
And couldn’t say “hello.”
~Twice
I spent a conversation,
Looking at your imperfections,
And it made me think,
Maybe that’s why you don’t seem to see mine,
Because you have them too,
Or maybe you don’t see my flaws,
For the same reason I don’t see yours.
~Picking Out Flaws
I just want you to look at me,
But I don’t want you to look at me,
Because you might catch me admiring you,
And I don’t want you to look at me,
Because there’s nothing to admire.
~Look At Me
I’ve got a bad habit of falling in love with you.
~Bad Habit
Something about midnight makes me want to write stupid poetry about a boy I know.
~A Boy I Know
Everyone always worries that people will see their flaws,
And hate them for it.
But no one ever thinks that someone will see their crooked teeth, or hear their stupid laugh,
And think,
‘My, they are beautiful.’
~Just In Case You Ever Worry
He fancies me a liar and I fancy him a king,
He acts little like royalty but that won’t hinder what I think,
But I worry he’s a conman or a puppet on the strings,
Of a lady who, before me, he found fit to be his queen.
~Little Like Royalty
