I Could (Again)

by Twan - Aries

I could become your lover again, I could revisit those times that never felt good before
I could want for everything, I could want for nothing
I could want for more
I could sit and talk for hours about you, which I'm sure you'd enjoy
I could try my best...
but you'd still be like troy
I'm falling for you, and may you become....


your beauty used to strike me dumb
I recovered
I became your foil
you only leaned on me
when work took its toil
I could see the promised land
but I never made it.

I could become your kept boy
I could do it, I probably could
A sense of fear tells me
I never would
I could again stand alone in hell
The darkness closing around me
But late at night it lightens
and I stood and began with a plea
 
"Oh, god, if you hear me, let me know 
because I've never been this high or this low
Send me someone who won't treat me as clay
or someone I won't just push away
Oh, God, if you hear me, send me a sign
because I'm tired of trolls and a bad pickup line
send me someone I can be proud
to admit is my boyfriend, REAL LOUD."

I could turn and walk away again
so I said as I closed my lid
but unlike all the other times
this time, I did.
