As much as we've grown fonder Of our vices and beauties alike It seems the otherworldliness of my endeavours Keeps on pulling me away As if I'd let free on you and cry On the minutest confrontation with warmth And there would be no barricades Which scares me.
Honestly, I haven't seen much Apart from what all I have seen I used to find it a lot and now I laugh at myself Perfections are a mirage I'm screaming out to you, my love Glance beyond what my achievements show As much of a pest I am My achievements seem to belie those perceptions.
Everytime the loop keeps going on What scared me wasn't my hurt before At least I wanted to change things Now I've gotten used to Soon I might be on the verge of making someone used to this too Every hope blooms only to be twisted cut under my string of achievements And yet, only those achievements are counted that I wouldn't wish to boast about.
I can see the gates, soon I'll touch them Fleeing isn't under my control I'm selfish, and I won't deny you the truth You ought to love me in my entirety, love! Or just reject me in any manner you deem fit.. There wouldn't be much complaining Just glance beyond my mirrors.
I keep myself on the edge, I love you I love you so much, I keep away With every whisper I melt I melt and try to move farther Because on this road upon which I am - salvation and satisfaction are only two blind-alleys.
Don't think I'm asking you to give up Too selfish for that, my love I want you, I can't have you go I can't have you stay without knowing too, I want you so much Your being makes me realise that H isn't a bad letter Hope, Home and Happiness are all attainable Only I fear - Such terms are too big for my small heart.
This is me trying to reach out Letting you know that I'm trying I've pushed you away ignorantly for a few days now I don't intend to push you away more - I cherish you But, love, look at me for who I am Not what my achievements make me I'm only a woman in love With her man - irrefutably.
I'm trying to get out of this mess It's only confusing that I leave one cage to find myself in another But I'm not going to lie To pretend I'm a free bird doing my own will My entire set-up has been a cage Just like everyone's I might be a bit farther than someone in breaking out I'm slower than many too I'm me, and you see that I hope you also saw that my achievements are expendable when it comes to you.
From, Your Average Woman.
