Raise me up
Put me down
Sink me, drop me
Spin me round.
Help me fly
Let me fall
To you I mean
Nothing at at.
Hurt me, pain me
At me, shout
I know it's me you're
Whispering about.
Say hurtful things
Before we meet
Yet when we do
Be sickly sweet
Trip me up
Let me drown
But on this face you'll
Never put a frown.
Your feedback helps Platypus understand what's working
Lines ever more unclear, Not sure I'm even here...
Every footstep forward, I take another back, Every compliment I get, You point out what I lack. Every smile you give me, Another frown on side, Every open talk we have, There's another that we hide.
I'm weak, pathetic,. I depend on you to feel. Like I'm worth anything,. You can build me up,. A desperate leaning tower,. Then crush me with a smile,. Drain me of all power,. Tear me limb from limb.
You say you love me I shine so bright, Then we kiss sweetly In the moonlight. I feel so special No one can replace, This amazing smile That is on my face.
'Just one more kiss' He said to me, But a kiss from him- was never free.
You build me up, To knock me down, Tell me to smile, But make me frown. Tell me to laugh, But cut inside, Start with one tear, Then cause a tide.
Soft voice, hard words. This is what I receive. Your sharpened tongue cuts through my soul, And waits for me to bleed. You cannot take the punches back, although they show no bruise.
Your piercing eyes tear at my soul Your taunting smirk sends me malicious thoughts Your beautiful new clothes bring me jealousy But what I hate the most is that you do this all on purpose.
I cherish the time we spend apart. The breathing space without you. Moments when I examine my heart. For signs of stress or scar tissue. I love it when you're nowhere near me.
