When You Gonna Love You As Much As I Do

The people in our lives that we desire most to avoid becoming are the ones we often become. The more we love them, the more they can hurt us. A painful paradox.

Pieces of Yourself

Falling apart at the seams
You are coming unglued
Splitting right down the middle
Leaving two pieces of you
I knew you when you were together
You made an unstoppable team
Before you stopped believing in you
Before you became so mean
So obsess now over stopping compulsion
And depress your manic side
Send your guilt on a one way trip
Learn how to be alive
Take some Scotch tape, masking tape, duct tape,
Safety pins, paper clips and bubble gum too
Here’s a staple gun, a hammer and some nails
With Elmer’s, wood and a dab of Crazy glue
You can’t stay like this forever
Not when I need you to be strong
So pull yourself together now
I don’t want to learn this all wrong
