Too often I think back to the first night we metAnd how scared I was when you hugged me from behindI struggled to gasp for air as you noticed I couldn’t think straightBut really I reflect because I knew I would run away from youAlways running from anything that feels realNow all I want is someone to make me feel aliveNot realizing everything I seek is within always and forever  I always feel sa...

you laid your entire life down for them on a platter and they still didn't take it  so why on earth would you think that they'd care if you took it back from them

There's nothing more beautifully devastating than a broken heart prancing around a bar, singing out to an empty room and a karaoke screen. A break up anthem - a portrayal of love lost, flat beer, and a mixed bag of emotions coming out in all the wrong ways at all the wrong times. The contrast of an obsession over little words and vulnerable moments slapped on display to a bar full of strangers....

you may be the first but you’re certainly not the last person to lodge themselves into the inviting right atrium of my heart. perch on it, kick your feet up, ill cushion them with my blackening lungs. sit comfortably. rest your head on my cranium- you know you’re always on my mind? when you decide to leave i beg you tread lightly. you dont. my spirit crushes beneath your sole. no, go its fine. ...

What am I supposed to do when the first man I've ever loved no longer loves me?What am I supposed to do when I have to beg him to say the three words I want to hear the most?What am I supposed to do when the words that used to bring me so much warmth are now cold and empty?"I love you." No, you don't.You don't love me. But I really really love you. I want to wake up from this nightmare.I want t...

  

A single cream-colored mothkissed blue tapestry,and it rippled the nightlike the skywished to avoid intimacywith the stars.Gold petals fluttered in the air,flickering and dying outlike phoenixes with fairy wings.My car interrupted the picture,purring along to the vibrationsboth outside and in,and you were pressed against the passenger glass,talking on the phone,thinking about someone else-makin...

These are the things I wanted to tell you- the words I choked on when you said it wasn’t working anymore and all I could do was smile. I wanted to tell you that I hope the world treats you kindly and the stars smile softer when you cannot sleep. I hope your dreams overcome your frustrations and the swirling thoughts spill out of your skull in a way that doesn’t hurt so badly. I am selfish but I...

Missing you comes in usually tiny waves, yet tonight, I am drowning. Is it so crazy to say I miss you? Until this weekend, I haven’t even thought of you. You are a figment of my past. And I despised you most of the time. Yet for some reason, I saw you and I realized it was fun loving you. It was fun to kiss you and be held by you. Talking to you again took me back to the days when we would laug...

The Conversations I Wish We Had  You’re driving up the hill  You stop by me  Pull down the window and I say “Hey you” You smile shyly like you always have and offer to drive me You’re going that way anyway We make small talk in the car  Feeling all so grown up As though a lifetime has passed Since we vowed to share that time.

She didn't have bruises to ink her skinBut the lashes from your words were enoughTo have her cower from withinYou were at war with yourselfAnd she an unfit soldier for your causeSo your kisses sufficed for the small stuffIt's real now isn't itthe abcense of the windIt's real now isn't itsuffocating, pinned to the bedDeath comes for us allAnd it's real  now, isn't it?When you plunge to the fall...
