Analysis of Imposters



You always poise yourself like you're better
Insult me with silence
Raise your eyebrow in pride
Stick your nose up and pretend to ignore me
I don't need faulty pick-up lines to get your number
All I need is this...

Our love lights fires we cannot quench
In my dreams you push me over the edge
When I look in your eyes tears fall
Your kisses are the only fond memories I have left to forget

You wore your best lies on our first date
You carried yourself like you were proper
You made boring topics seem interesting
but your sentimental smile still made me nervous

You made me laugh the whole ride home
i made you resent my carefree spirit
I walked you to your door
You kicked me to the curb
When I got back to my house i knew it was over

Just cause you look attractive doesn't mean you are
Just cause yousay all the right things doesn't make you smart
Just cause we dated doesn't mean you know me
Just cause you're in love doesn't mean you have a heart

Don't let loneliness ruin your plans to succeed
A hardened heart softens the soul and weakens your beliefs

Are you ready to never date again for all Eternity?
Let's just be friends (Repeat)

Eugene Hetler

I love the Lord Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit and that goes with Him. I read the Bible and pray daily. I try not to be judgemental but some days the fire comes out like a dragon burping a big gas fire on accident after a big meal. I love to write. Please read waht I write. I love to write things that encourage and hopefully are fun to read and make you laugh til you cry. I even like to write things that inspire and make you think in a deep way some of the time. Whoever's hacking my account and erasing my hard work is cheating me and the people who enjoy my work and it needs to stop or you'll suffer the consequences. :) more…
