No compromise!

what a burden it is to expect
anything, even love or respect
I had said I wouldn't compromise
sticking to it would be wise.

but it's hard not to wish
acting all so standoffish
me, this way? hard to conceive
since I wear my heart on my sleeve.

I don't wanna a pro/con list!
taking the bad coz I can't resist!
Coz we all will end up traumatized...
I wanna be idolized!

There: I said it and it's true!
who doesn't want it is a fool!
I want it all and then some more!
Someone who loves me and I adore!

So, goodbye, idecisive one.
hurts to end what has just begun...
but you should see what you have in me
and want to keep me badly!

You're great, but you're scared and so
my patience has run out and I'll let you go.
If you're mine, you'll come back to me
and we'll make this life ecstasy!

I'm really sorry the time is not right, and you gotta see
that I must do what's right for my sanity!

The Lesson

I understand why I can't sleep
here came the epiphany
a Truth important to keep
and it came in melody.

it's about having my heart stolen
with no plans, no safety net.
give Life to something that's been frozen
and being "all in" on the bet.

it's about finding out if the wall
has come down if only for a peek.
facing the abysm and the fall
being strong instead of weak.

That's the lesson to be learned:
opening up is good and fun!
Not so fun being burned
not knowing which way this'll turn.

But that's the point I'm making:
Be open to Love which also brings pain!
All is better than just faking!
Let all weathers in, also the rain!

So that's the lesson I'm being taught:
be vulnerable, insecure, but know this:
It's all really in your thoughts
and it's worth waiting for that kind of kiss...
