Listening To My Heart - Poetry/Lyrics

Poem 57 {Just Another Used Yo-Yo}

You just pulled me above.

You bought me back above the surface.

You came back.

And I instantly fell,

I fell back to the past.

I began to do all those old things;

I'd beam as I'd read my phone,

I'd laugh at the thought of your expression,

I'd blush at the thought of all things I would say,

I'd quiver with the thought of being held.

Oh finally, being held by you.

It's been too long.

And I've been waiting for this all along.

Waiting for you to come back.

And I thought it was it.

As soon as you came back I instantly let fantasies and possibilities take over.

I was oblivious.

I was in love.

I sat there and smile and danced.

I stood and I bathed in the future with you.

Though I was stupid.

I was stupid to think that you came back for me.

That you were going to out stretch your hand and wisp me away.

I got carried away.

You have that affect; I instantly jump to la la land

As soon as you take one glance my way.

Any simple gesture I think you're coming home,

I think you've realised that I'm meant for you,

I think that my dreams will come true and I'll get off this floor.

And as minutes tick by.

Tick. Tick. Tick.

I smile with excitement.

All the things we can do.

But time is still ticking.

And again I plummet back to the cold floor.

You do it every time.

You pull me up and throw me back down.

And each time I never learn,

Each time I still believe,

Each time I ignore the little voice

And each time you break my heart.

Every time
