Array ( [sid] => 18949 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => Drown In My Love [time] => 2003-06-12 17:25:00 [hometext] => For Dean. Nobody has the ability that he does to put me through every emotion in the book within a very short amount of time. Sometimes it drives me crazy! [bodytext] => Sometimes I wish I could turn these feelings off
Sometimes I hate how I need to be near you
Once there was a time when you didn't matter to me much
But all that's just a memory in the back of my mind
I hit you then I run away and hide in the corner
'Cause my anger turns to fear stemmed from insecurity
And I worry I'll do the things that will lead you to leave me
I love you and then I wait for you to say what I want to hear
'Cause I'm consumed until I'm gone, burned up in you
You make me shine brighter but you've turned out the light

I've let my heart fly
I've let go and watched myself fall
I've given it away
Just so I could give you my all
You've taken away from me
Every fear that tied and bound me
Now I lay here in my bed
Thoughts of you playing with my head
I live my life around you
So it pisses me off when I don't get you
You say you want to be here
But I look around and I just don't see you

Shut up and show me something I can believe in
'Cause when I'm all alone I'm not really living
I gave you every second of my time
And it wasn't enough to make you stay
You make me feel like I'm empty inside
Then you bring out all the rage deep within
With the little things you do comes the calm
You turn me around and all upside down
I can't help feeling like you're throwing me around
Then everything is fine because your heart's all mine
You think that you can mend it with a few little words
But once I'm crumpled up I can't be perfect again
It's always too late by the time you come around
You should've come sooner but I'm all twisted up now
The fear and anger you cause me is senseless
You lit this flame and you love to fan the fire
Then you turn me to water and swim in the tide
I choke on my own feelings and I just can't hide
You drown in my love then you get up and walk away
And no matter what I do I can't hold on to you
I feel like I'm losing my grip and I'm starting to trip
It's when you make me feel alone that I push you away
But I would never leave your side if you'd just stay
If you'll trust yourself to me you can swim forever in this sea [comments] => 3 [counter] => 172 [topic] => 48 [informant] => MoonlitAngel [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )
