I Wonder

The wildness of the years
can't pacify what I need to hear.
That you want me near
 & 
dear
That our naked skin isn't to demoralizing & unclear.
My body can't stop quivering
when you are near.
Do you want me mOi for me?
or
 what I have called you 
in ecstasy - dear?
I want to see you smile
& 
know it is worth my time
That my mind
& 
body
& 
soul
aren't being used for what you consider yours alone.
I am who I will always be
Someone that feels 
& 
bleeds
That has so many ideas
& 
won't be caged.
I can see myself in your eyes
although... are you such a prize?
I think not 
but then again,
I want someone
that's real
&
won't weigh me in.
I like to laugh
& 
sing
&
be who I came to be
but are you whom I came to see
when you roll your eyes at me?
Can I call you names
&
not care insults are exchanged?
Have a glitch in my facsimile
&
see you in the tapestry? 
&
I wonder. . .

I was a hot mess In my Sunday best Black tears in my eyes You were my first love You were my only one I can't believe your lies Once we were like bottle rockets Now I know I have to stop it Please believe me This isn't easy I just need to say goodbye Goodbye Goodbye Losin' my mind Goodbye You got a new friend You like to play pretend I'm just keepin' my cool Turn on that smoke machine Magic and make-believe She'll never know you like I do Once we were a fire burnin' Now you're just a lesson I'm learnin' Please believe me This isn't easy I just need to say goodbye Goodbye Goodbye Losin' my mind Goodbye I know that I can find somebody You won't ever find nobody else like me I know that I can find somebody You won't ever find nobody else like me I know that I can find somebody You won't ever find nobody else like me I know that I can find somebody You won't ever find nobody else like me Once we were like bottle rockets Now...

Tom Petty

When I was a teenager I had a boyfriend who's father had gotten him this album and he loved it so much he went and bought me a copy. I must have played it over a hundred times. RIP Tom, you'll be missed. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Petty
