The saddest thing
Is when they show you a million reasons,
Even a trillion reasons
Why you shouldn’t hold on.

But you do anyway.

They exposed you
To how bittersweet an encounter could be.

And it changed you.

You ignore all the red flashing lights,
As they try to dazzle you from the most painful hazard.

Rejection.

What, did it make you feel lucky?
To finally have your secret person of interest,
Be interested in you?

You become the girl who knows her worth
But chooses to ignore it.

Why?

I guess we’ll never know.

I'm in need
What of I'm not sure
I can't even write anymore

The words all blur into one

I'm losing touch
And I'm so sorry I could never say
Words are hard to decipher
In a mind of clouded dilemma like mine

You know when you feel replaced
But there's nothing you can do?

Petrifying

My soul cannot cope
With a world like this anymore.
Emily Fell Mar 2016
Lost the thought
Lost the touch
I guess words don't work anymore.

No more classic romanticism
All we have is empty space
And we're letting the night soften
As we piece ourselves together and

My only friend is vertigo
Or a wandering shooting star

But when all is gone I have a heart
And I'm a carousel all through
Whirl off into my head so sombre.

So hold me
As we tumble down
And meet my carousel end.
If you seek the meaning, read the last letter of every line.
Emily Fell Jan 2016
Seeking the sunrise,
Hiding in shadows,
Compressing the moonlight
Into your pocket

Because who knows when we'll see it again?
Pictures
Of what may never come back.
What we loved,
Lost,
Hated.
They last a lifetime

Like my tears
on your shirtsleeves.

Don't fall in love with someone
Who says things that blossom your mind,
Heal your scars
And make you believe again.

fall in love with someone
Who misses you at 2pm in the afternoon,
When life is dragging them behind,
And all they want
Is your arms wrapped around their neck.

love that person.

fall in love with someone
When they're staying up with you,
Because you had that nightmare again,
Living restless days for you,
And showing you that they lust for you.

fall in love with someone
When hearing them say your name
Flutters your heart,
That no one else's voice sounds the same
Or their touch caresses your skin.
You'll know you've found the one.

fall in love with that person.

I don't belong here
my mind is
WAY
too obscure
