All it takes is 20 seconds on insane courage, just 20 seconds of embarrassing bravery, and I promise you something great will come of it.


I couldn't think of anything to say.
Your fingerprints were all around the room and you changed your name.
the night was icy but I didn't mind,
just like the night you left me behind.

I hope wherever you are you’re alright.
I was foolish to think the burn your fingertips left would last forever.
When you left me I wondered with my subconscious mind,
how could someone ever leave me behind.

Being left behind is an awful fate to behold.
Perhaps a princess would be left at the top of a tower
seemingly crying, denying, left to her thoughts all alone.
She wouldn't deny being left behind for fate would decide
just how love is blind.

But this isn't a fairy tale and dreams don’t always come true.
I fought recklessly for jealousy wouldn't stop me.
Until one icy night,
my mind finally left you behind.

I'm actually at a loss. It's like staring into a rubix cube in a fourth dimension... its monotone but in the same so sad & emotional. I'm sitting loving it & scratching my head... GG
