Like the keys of the piano,
The notes of the violin,
The chords of the guitar,
She's my sweet lullaby.

Like the enchanted forest,
The vast ocean,
The blue skies,
She's my world.

Her smile,
Her eyes,
Her voice.
They make me feel euphoric.

I know it's wrong,
To make her my everything.
Wrong to feel this way,
Sorry.

Why does she have to be so perfect,
She's too good to be true.
She's an angel, sent by God,
For me-- another she.
Lines
Signs
Scars of war
I'm drifting afar.

Help me,
Save me.
I'm scared,
I'm scarred.

Red everywhere,
Darkness in the air.      
Guide me,
Back to reality.

Sorry,
For making you worry.
Don't go away,
Please stay.
She's starting to feel different--
She wasn't herself anymore.

Bounded by the chains of his rules,
She wasn't free.

Like a butterfly with torn wings,
She felt useless now.

Like a bird inside a cage,
She wants to break free.

But breaking loose means leaving him,
She decided to be engulfed with this non sense boundaries.
I know it's been awhile. I hope you guys like it
Smoke-filled room--
Full of people that I used to respect--
Using me against my will.
"You better not be a lesbian"
Says the guy I love.

"It's just a phase"
Says a friend.

"Get over it"
Says my father.

"You're a Catholic"
Says my mother.

So now I try to hide,
All my feelings inside.

Messed up,
Bottled up.

I don't want to hide anymore,
I want to be myself.

I am proud,
I'll say it out loud.

I am a bisexual,
And no one can change that.
I am proud. It pains me knowing the fact that I can't really be true to myself in order to please those people who surround me.
"I'm sorry."
I tried to look him in the eye,
But I just can't.

"For what?"
Those innocent eyes of his,
But I have to end this.

"I think it's best for us to go separate ways."
Nothing's right anymore,
Nothing.

"But I thought I'm your sunshine..."
I don't deserve you,
You're too good to be true.

"You are my sunshine."
I loved you before,
But now I'm not sure.

"If I'm your sunshine, then why are you leaving me?"
You've brought me joy,
You've caused me pain.

"You're draining out all my colors. Sometimes we need the rain in order to survive."
I need to take a step back,
To see what it's like without you.
As I sit near the edge,
I can't help but feel tensed.

Is this how I want things to end?
Me drifting away from reality?

Slowly I go down,
To the bottom and held my breath.

This will be it,
Waiting for the water to fill my lungs.

The end is near,
As I feel my lungs burn.

I'm losing,
I'm finding it harder and...
One, two, three, four, five.
I just want to feel alive,
But can't wait to die.
If you give yourself completely,
If you surrender everything,
Remember a lot of things can change.

At first, it will feel great-- knowing that your loved one is taking control of you.
But as time passes,
This dark void will start to consume you.
It will swallow you whole,
Not giving you a chance to fight.

So before you give yourself,
Make sure you're willing to be empty.
I feel nothing anymore. I'm always confused.
God gave me family,
God gave me friends,
God gave me life.

But I took something from God---
You.

I took an angel away from the heavens---
A beautiful angel adored by all.

As each day passes the heavens became empty without your presence.

But as each day passes with you beside me,
The more I fall into this endless pit.

You took care of me,
You worshipped me,
You loved me.

The heavens kept searching for you.
I don't want to lose you.
I can't imagine what's it like to be without my everything.

You gave me everything,
And it scares me,
Knowing that one day you'll go back to where you really belong.

It ruined me,
You ruined me,
I ruined me.

I have to give God what rightfully belongs to Him,
Even if it means living without you.
This one is the continuation of my haiku 'Shattered' I hope you like it Krista DelleFemine
"I am always here for you"
I believed the words you said,
But where are you now?
You don't need to tell me,
I know that I am useless.
My demons told me.
If I don't make it the next month,
I want you to know that it never was your fault.

If I don't make it on your birthday,
I want you to know that I wish you the best.

If I don't make it on our anniversary,
I want you to know that you are now free to choose someone else.

If I don't make it on Christmas,
I want you to know that you can celebrate and be merry.

If I don't make it on New Year,
I want you to know that you should start fresh.

If I don't make it tomorrow,
I want you to know that I love you.
I am slowly losing hope.
If you look closely,
Just enough where you can see,
She's sad and dying.
She's becoming used to being by herself.
Slowly accepting the fact that she's happy alone.

She's losing everything else.
But in the end, she gained her peace.
I found myself by being distant to those I love the most.
She clears her schedule all for you.
But I can see, you just squeeze her in yours.

She stops doing the things she was supposed to do just to focus on you.
On the other hand, you don't.

Maybe the reason why you gave her all those watches was that you can't give her time.
You can only give her watches, but not your time.
Clearly this is what I feel with my current relationship.
She grew tired--
Not of other people,
But herself.
She grew tired of herself.

She tried and tried,
Not knowing how put her life together,
She gave up on herself
And slowly blood dripped down her wrists.
Lately I feel like I want to give up.
Can you please stop it?
Your love is too much for me.
It just ruins me.
"You little *****! As soon as I see you, you're dead!"--

Bedroom,
Closet,
I don't know where to hide.

Bathroom,
Kitchen,
Where do I go.

Think clearly.
Breathe in and deep,
He'll leave, yes.

His stomps I hear not from afar,
Searching for me,
Wanting to beat the living **** out of me.

"Come out now, it's about time we get this over with"--

He chuckles like a lunatic he is.
It wasn't my fault that I'm not the one for him.

"You know darling, if you just said yes that night none of this would've happened."

I remember,
That night in which he asked me that stupid question.
In which I rejected his love.

Then the doors of my bedroom flew open--
He sees me.

Run.

"You can't hide now. No one will know that you're dead after this."

"I've had enough already Bryan, I've given you multiple chances, I thought you'd change."

One.
Two.
He's inches away from me.

He stabbed me with a knife that he got from the kitchen.
Blood dripping down.

I tried to fight back,
He's too strong to handle.

"Get away from me you ******!"

I yelled as I managed to break from his iron grip.

"Love makes us go crazy Alex, you're the reason why I'm like this"

He pushed me against the wall,
And whispered--
"I love you, I own you."

Then I heard a loud bang-- gunshot.
Blood rushed down.

Red, my hands are full of red fluid.
It's not mine.
A gun, in my hand.

I shot him.
God shot a man.
I don't know how I got the gun.

"Bryan!!!"
I yell in horror.

"Wake up Alex, you're just having a nightmare."

Just a nightmare, I wish.

I fixed myself,
Wiping out the sweat from that horrible nightmare--
Surrounded by white walls.

Two more years and I'll be free.
I'll be out of this white prison.
Out of this thing that binds me.

I'm not crazy,
My reality is not twisted,
I'm telling the truth I swear.

He tried to hurt me,
I guess.
'Cause that's what I know.

Or maybe they're right,
Afterall.
Maybe I really am out of my mind.
Maybe my reality is twisted and broken.

Then I dozed off with the drug they gave me...
Beware of what's inside--
A vast emptiness, cold and dark.
Because it's rainy season here.
"Take off your clothes"
He whispered into my ears.

"Why?"
I asked, unsure of what's gonna happen.

"Because you love me, because I said so"
Demanding me to do as he wishes.

"I can't"
Yes I love this guy in front of me, but I just can't.

"Don't make me, you don't wanna get hurt"
I sense his temper raising.

"..."
I closed my eyes and started removing everything.

"Now that's my girl"
I cried as he slowly owned me.

"..."
I am being used against my will by the person I never thought capable of doing so.

"I love you, I love your body"
I am being used.
This means a lot to me.
Home.
Family.
Loved ones.

--I thought being surrounded by them will calm me.

Chaos.
Self-doubt.
Mess.

--Is all that they have given me throughout the years.
My mom and my dad uses words that triggers something inside me that's too hard to control. It's like I badly want to give up on myself.
"Are you okay?"
He asked.
"I am okay."
I lied.

But I guess he's stupid enough,
He believed me.
And everyday he asked.
And everyday I lied.
I've always wondered,
What's it like beyond the wall.
Beyond the skies.
Beyond the depth of the ocean.

Beyond our love,
What does our love offer?
Is there more to it?
Because if this is it, I'm not convinced.

"I'm sick of you. I'm tired."
"What did I do wrong?"
"It's just I'm tired of the same old stuff."
"I want to prove you wrong."

I've given you a chance,
I know you did your best.
But I guess I don't want you anymore.
I feel confined in your love.

I want to see what life there is for me,
Opportunities and chances.
To be free and see the great beyond,
Beyond you and I.
First few months with him made time go by fast.
Minutes felt like seconds,
Hours felt like minutes.
It was always never enough.
I wanted time to slow down.
To savor the moment spent with him.

But as the years gone, things turned around and changed.
Seconds felt like minutes,
Minutes felt like hours.
It was too much.
I wanted time to go faster.
To escape him, to be alone at last.
You were my dream,
But now you're my nightmare.
I had dream last night about him, I hope he doesn't turn into a nightmare.
I am a victim
Of my own mind and demon.
No one can save me.
As she slowly drifts away,
He tried to get her back,
Back to where they started.

She lost herself,
In the midst of the love,
The love he had given her.

She turned into a monster--
Cold and harsh,
But he tried his best to tame her.

Unable to fix her,
She was completely gone,
He lost her.
I somehow felt that I am losing myself and I'm trying to put myself back together.
"What about us?"
"Us?"
"Yes."
"Consider it gone."

Cold air,
Gloomy night.
Heavy atmosphere,
I can't breathe.

I know there's something wrong,
There has to be.
I just can't point out what it is,
But I'm sure something really isn't right.

Staring blankly into the vast emptiness of space,
You suddenly looked me in the eye.
I studied your expression,
I can't explain what was written all over your face.

Sadness?
Despair?
Emptiness?
Anger?

You kissed me as if it was the last.
I held you,
Not knowing it will be the end,
The end of you and I.
"You're slowly killing me."
I whispered before you leave,
But you didn't hear.

Everything was just as it should be-
You and me,
A relationship full of glee.

***** little secrets,
Late night conversations,
Questions that come in randomly.

Everything was going well.
No fights, no lies.
No hurts, no broken promises.

But you failed to notice,
Time has been an issue,
You're too busy for me.

"Hey"
"Sorry I got busy, good night"
"Night"

Suddenly we seldom talk
You got tired.
I got tired.

You got tired of me,
I got tired of you,
But why are we still together?

Is it because we're scared of being alone?
Is it because all of our efforts will be put to waste?
Is it because we don't want to see each other with someone new?

Or is it just me?
I know I'm feeling a bit empty,
I know I'm too hard to handle.

Broken.
Sad.
Mad.

I think you're slowly killing me.
Everytime you forget to talk to me.
Everytime you let me wait alone.

You're slowly killing me.
I felt insecure.
I felt like I don't deserve you.

You're slowly but surely killing me.
And for I fact I know.
Soon it'll end.

I am emotionally unstable,
And you know.
But why can't you notice now?

I need you,
You're the reason why I'm still here,
But you're also the reason why I want to die.

"What are you talking about?"
You asked me as I said all those things.
Then you left.

Leaving me broken,
With a blade,
Alone.

— The End —
