Echoes Of Words Past

Come With Me

Come away with me
To anywhere
So long as there is no one else around
I frankly, don't care where.

I just want the world
To fade and fall away
To live on fresh air and sunshine
That'll do me fine
So long as I have you
No one and nothing else matters.

So come away with me
I'll only ask once
And never again.

And if your answer is no
I'd still go
For then there would be no point in staying
To be merely existing.



The face outside the crowd

I would always be
the face outside of your crowd.
Always there but never near enough.
Always happening but never easy-going enough.
Always fun but never the blast.
Always warm but never hot enough.
I will always be.. the last person
to come to your mind for all the things
that you think I don't have enough of.
Yet, somehow I am still called to be here.
I would like to think that if you took the time,
you might find that I am all in all.
But alas, my company's never good enough
to be worth the time.
I do not understand it
and maybe I should not try to.
I do not appreciate it
and maybe I should just accept it.
Or Maybe.. just maybe... it's time I tell you
that you're not enough as well.
And that you're only here because
I'm a realist who knows
that no one could ever be.


My declaration

I'm fine.
There is nothing wrong
with my life as it is now.
I like not being answerable
to anyone for anything.
I like coming home
and turning the key all by myself.
I like not having someone
ask me what I am thinking about.
I like not having anyone
close enough who can hurt me.
I like not having anyone care
about how my day went
or why I am crying.
I'm a sucker for pain
and my life right now
is right up my alley.
So don't pity me.
Why should you care,
when I don't?
