Post 367: Deflated (4/13/10)

Deflated (1/27/10 c, 4/13/10 w)

You filled me up with notions

Notions of love
And all kinds of new emotions
Then you let me, you let me go
You don’t know how hard it is
How hard it is to let, to let you go

Now I feel kind of like a balloon

Let go to soon, before it could be tied
Losing air kind of like my life
Deflated
Emotions I can’t let go
But you are gone so I don’t know
How to keep it together
All the best parts of me left with you
Escaping like air from a balloon
Deflated

You made me think

Made me think you would fill me up
Like a balloon in summer from the kitchen sink
But the day you let me go

I know I can’t hold it together

And I’m falling, falling apart

Now I feel kind of like a balloon

Let go to soon, before it could be tied
Losing air kind of like my life
Deflated
Emotions I can’t let go
But you are gone so I don’t know
How to keep it together
All the best parts of me left with you
Escaping like air from a balloon
Deflated

With you I was floating

Floating so high
I must have got too close to the sun
Because now everything, everything has come undone
As I plunge to the earth below

Do you know you left me
You left me deflated

Now I feel kind of like a balloon

Let go to soon, before it could be tied
Losing air kind of like my life
Deflated
Emotions I can’t let go
But you are gone so I don’t know
How to keep it together
All the best parts of me left with you
Escaping like air from a balloon
Deflated
