• I'm the birdwatcher,
    watching the bird of my heart fly away
    I'm the time stopper
    trying to freeze these moments day by day

    I'm the hopeless romantic
    who's heart always skips a beat or two
    I'm the songwriter
    that gets twisted deep into her thoughts, pleading to know whats true.

    I'm the victim of a crime
    still feeling the pain that's been embedded in my heart
    I'm the one who took advantage of time
    ashamed now in looking at the clock, ignoring the thoughts that start.

    I'm the fortune teller
    warning everyone of the world around us crumbling
    but they all bury their heads in their hands and wrap themselves in ignorance
    I'm the old fashioned drug seller
    selling her peers doses of happiness and laughs,
    but rarely ever indulge

    I'm the one to kiss and tell
    for you're the one I want to show off
    I'm the stargazer
    trying to get lost in the glittering spell

    I'm the wisher
    who used up all three wishes on you
    I'm the fisher
    fishing for the catch that i've forever pursued

    and I'm just this poet
    trying to twist my feelings into these soft little words
    thinking to myself,
    how I could have held onto that one bird.
