If feelings could...

If feelings had eyes,
the truth would they see?
and not be so tangled,
in something that's never gonna be.

If feelings had ears,

the thudding heart would they hear?
before they took off after something,
like a car in top gear.

If feelings had a nose,

brewing trouble would they sniff?
and be wary from the start,
saving us a lot of grief.

If feelings had a tongue,

would they tell us their true stand?
and not sway our emotions this way and that,
making it so hard to comprehend.

If feelings had wings,

how far would they fly?
and not scream in suppressed rebellion,
someday, watching a dream go by.

If feelings could lie,

would they do so, to make us feel better?
and not let the sting of bitter truth,
cause our perfect dreams to shatter.

Not Just an Option...

Life is full of options,
But I don't want to be one of them...
I want to be the only choice,
To the song of your soul...
A hope, a light, a voice.
Life is full of options,
But I don't want to be one of them...
I had rather be your whim,
A thought, a face, a kindred heart...
that you saw in a distant dream.
Life is full of options,
But I don't want to be one of them...
I want to be that pull,
of friendship, of comfort, of love...
that fills your heart to the full.
Life is full of options,
But I don't want to be one of them...
I want to be loved despite the cracks in my mirror,
my fear, my doubts, my crazy bouts... 
And not just by the pretty outer frame
.
Life is full of options,
But I don't want to be one of them...
I want not to be an obligation,
just a settlement, a compromise...
that you adjust into a relation.

Life is full of options,
But I don't want to be one of them...
I want you to show that you care,
a gesture, an emotion, a silent promise...
that for me you'll always be there.
Life is full of options,
some logical, some insane...
I want to be, what your heart wants
And not just a plausible solution by your brain.
