Tired Of Imperfect

I sure hope 

you're watching. 

  I wanna break your heart 

to smithereens 

  Teach you what 

you're doing to me.

  Yeah,
  I wanna bust your mind 

and I wanna bruise you up

  cause that's all what you've done to me
  Right here right now
   I'm gonna say it 
out loud

   I'm tired
   of imperfect
   I'm tired
   of dead romance
   Lead me to the edge 
   of the battlefield

Break me out of this crazy trance

I wanna teach you a lesson—

  Somethin' you never
  Will forget
  Show you what it's like just to be lost
   With no one showin' up for ya'
   Yet

I'm sick of feeling empty
  When these nights are all I got, oh no

And right here right now I'm gonna
  Say it 
  Out loud
I'm tired
   Of imperfect
   I'm tired 
Of this dead romance
   Lead
   Me to the edge of
   This 

mess

   And break me out of this crazy trance, oh.



Note from the Author: Hey, guys. Just wanted to drop in and let you know that I wrote this bit of poetry for a character of mine many years ago. It was initially intended to be a song in one of my books, but as it turns out I never used it for that purpose. So, I recycled it and put it here. A lot of my poetry is like that; fictional scenarios written for books and characters that might one day be seen by the world. For now, I am just sharing them here. So don’t take any of this too seriously, okay?
