Chapter 7 - I don't think.

You're like the girl of my dreams,

But I've been having nightmares lately...

I'm restless...

Waiting for your love

To come and save me.

-

Waiting for someone who's brave enough to brave me.

A passive sort of love,

One that won't seek to enslave me.

-

Where are you now?

What are you going through?

When will our stars collide?

When will I get to you?

-

I've been waiting for your eyes.

The ones that seem so true.

I feel like I'm stumbling blind

My irises clouded in gloom.

-

My love is a battlefield.

My heart is my blade in this war.

My mind is a force to wield

But what am I battling for?

-

I've been waiting

And contemplating

My days

And I've been debating

The pros and the cons 

Being single

It's aggravating.

-

Like...why is it so complicated

For us to just find a lover?

But far too easy for us

To just strip down and touch one another?

-

Like...how is it so easy

For us to roll between the sheets,

But none of us can figure out

What really makes us complete?

-

I've been looking for you.

My brown-eyed girl.

You've been looking for me, too.

Time to combine our worlds.

-

Don't need the silver and golds,

Don't need the diamonds and pearls.

Don't want to fall for your heart,

I want this love to unfurl.

-

I want that love that unrolls.

I need that kind that unbreaks.

The type of soul to mend mine.

The type to give, but not take.

-

I don't think

That I don't think

That I will never find her...

The dating apps

Ping every day,

A bittersweet reminder.

-

That if my love was good enough for you to claim

I wouldn't be here caught up in this stupid dating game...

-

You're like the girls of my dreams...

But I haven't been sleeping lately.

Waiting for something to give,

A love to validate me...
