Red. happy birthday to me you were the best present i was never given but you were one to win in my past in the dark i used to to dream of you a stranger i didn't know but you and me were true and the day that we met you whispered in my ear told me my own secrets that no one else could hear and you took me in so close and held me safe inside me and you from day one i knew we'd make this right happy birthday to me you were the best present i was never given but you were one to win shut my eyes and i see you cover my ears i can hear you when i reach out my hands i can still feel you and i wonder where you are and just what is happening is it better, is it worse or just a different thing tell me are you whole or like me in pieces will you come back to me or is this the way we end happy birthday to me you were the best present i was never given but you were one to win and if you were here would i fix what i knew was broken would i listen to the sounds of all the words not spoken would you hurt me from a stop would we save each other when we both go too fast would we be loved like no other? i don't know. happy birthday to me never said goodbye to me took me in Red saved me in Red.   - JT 9:42pm Oct 31, '07   <-- Back to the poetry menu.
