Once beautiful

I want your arms around me
You represent hate and love
All in one being
You can make me cry and smile
I just want you to hold me
And tell me everything will be ok
Empathically I know you love me
It is enough to get me through today
Feel the music pulse through my veins
Even bad music keeps me alive
Each hit of the drum beats life to my heart
Guitar licks push air into my lungs
High school girls scream their name
With flipping hair and squeaks of delight
They don’t understand the lyrics though
Purly obsesssed as only girls can
These lyrics are yours and mine
Like a mood ring I morph into a different color
You will never see through the smoke
I will only be a shadow to you
A long ago memory of something happy
Something that was once beautiful
