I Know How Unfair Life Can Be

I want champagne made from stardust,

A body,  a heart that never shall rust.

A lover under the covers in the morning gray,

A friend who turns tomorrow into today.

I want the smell of sweat and perfume on my sheets,

To fall asleep, counting the rhythm of your heart beat.

I want to know the secrets of the afterlife,

An intellect as sharp as a knife.

I want your arms draped heavily across mine,

Lips to kiss, redder than wine.

I want to see the scars that tell stories,

To become lost in the eyes that heaven glories.

I want to get stoned on the kitchen floor,

To dream of what the future has in store.

I want to fall in love with music,  written for me,

Tattoo the lyrics onto my ribs like bad poetry.

But I know that words never sound the way they should do,

And I know that 'I love you' is usually followed by 'I love you too'.

I know that there is a hole where my heart should be,

And I know that someone tore it out of me.

Yes, I know how unfair life can be.

And I know that a girl should never be this lonely.
