I'll Never Learn

I never learned how to love

Instead, I learned to fantasize

To lose myself deep inside my sweet lies

All so I'd believe I could talk to you

At least, taking fight over flight

I never learned to mature

I'll run along the gentle orchids in spring

As I caress them with my horrid singing

So I beg you, don't call a psychiatrist

Mine says it's fine, mostly

Since I'm a child, I can't be discrete

Sometimes my thoughts will slip

Making those around me trip,

Mainly because I judge them

Out of envy, but truthfully

So when I mutter "beautiful, "

Towards you and I regrettably realize so

Do know it's true, I love you

Since I never learned to lie,

In fact, I learned nothing

Because when we talk,

I instantly forget if I did,

So while we dance, teach me anew

While we sing, don't lose a screw

Since I'll never learn,

That's nothing new
