Dreamer Read Count : 105

She grew up in a small house 
in a little town, 
dirt roads, pecans, 
and an orchard of peach trees. 

She dreamt of the adventures 
she read about in books. 
She dreamt someday she'd leave this town 
and the prince would fall for her. 

I was a dreamer with my head in the clouds 
and you were a boy with a past always right behind you. 
You let your demons chase me into the darkness 
so you could pretend to be the hero I needed. 

I was naive before 
you came along. 
You stained a blank canvas 
that was meant to be white. 

I thought all I needed was you, 
so why are you causing the pain?
I gave you my heart when
you said you'd be careful 
but you tossed it around like 
it was nothing special. 

Now I stay awake and 
I cry at night 
because I understand why 
I don't deserve you. 

I can't be happy because 
I don't like me 
because you are not happy with me. 

Love gets your hopes up 
till you break when you bend.
Love's not a carousel. 
It's a dead end. 

I can't explain to you 
just how I feel. 
It was my words that 
I let you steal.
