Silly Cliches

Up and down we go

Like a bizarre merry-go-round

First friends then lovers

Then it stopped without a sound

I can’t ride this rollercoaster with you

I can not do this dance

Every smile every hug

Leads my heart to believe in another chance

At love with you.

I know we love each other

Its evident to all but you

But instead of making the most of it

Instead of seeing it through

We parted ways for awhile

To cool off, to see how it felt

To be alone again, to be apart

Those weeks without you

Were like a dagger in my heart

Silly cliches can’t describe it

But they’re all I’ve got.
