Lily (2010)

Lily,

I need you today.
No, not just for effect.
As much as that may dismay.
It isn't what makes you complex.

I needed your mind.
I needed your heart.
See, mine's on the grind.
It's all but worn out.

The past is choking me.
It's cutting off my breath.
I need to be set free.
For I fear I'm near death.

I can't see you
without seeing pieces of them.
I wish the opposite were true.
I can't get past the nightmare of him.

He took my innocence.
He robbed me of my passion.
My self worth is two cents.
I'm dreadfully old fashioned.

I'm scared, really scared
I feel like I've lost you.
On the outside I glare,
You are someone I wish I knew.
