I'm not in a hurry, though you've made me wait. I just want to know you, before it's too late. You dive right on in, and then you drift away. With slight hesitation, I'd rather you stay. You gave me a quick gander into your soul. You made me believe that I could be made whole. I thought I found hope when I looked in your eyes. My head and my heart were just whispering lies. I can't be angry that you don't want to stay. I don't deserve to be happy anyway. I don't even deserve to still be alive. Despite my only prayer, I still haven't died. The one thing I've needed doesn't exist, Love's merely a thought, so here's my final wish. As the last drop of blood, leaves my weeping veins, Before someone gets paid, to mop up my brains, Remember you left me alone, with my fate. Rendered me worthless, do not resuscitate.

DNR
Thick black smoke rolls over the shore Engulfed in flames, her soul wants more Magnetic field ignites her heart Destruction births her brand new start Hungry eyes endure the burning Ashes spread by endless yearning She'll rise above and spread her wings The Phoenix soars, her life begins

Phoenix Soul
Don't come any closer, you'll hear my heart breaking. The crickets and the frogs drown out all the aching. The moon gathers the stars, they're coming to save me. What more do you need, to understand faithfully?

Faithfully
Invested trust, so poorly spent, Even the stars have somehow bent. Crippling doubt, head has a glitch. Agony thrives, heart's on the fritz. Relentless gripe, slow to succumb. Desolate soul, coming undone. Chartered chaos, hanging the noose. Afflicted love, won't cut me loose. Demise of dreams, spoken too soon. You, my love, did not hang the moon.

MOONSTRUCK
Four ambiguous  letters form a dangerous verb Restrained from my lips, they're silently heard It's irrefutable gravity when our eyes collide An alliance more persuasive than the moon to the tide Well pronounced passion reclaiming my smile   A comatose heart now deemed agile His eloquent tongue awakening my senses His precocious soul breaching all my defenses Fear bellows from my core, trying to wreak havoc With deafening force, he's slaying my dragons Silence may be imminent, once this prudence breaks My skepticism tolerates no room for mistakes A tantalizing humility, in preservation of it's claim Silently implied, or fantasized, I love him just the same

HIM
Bending, twisting, and falling down sober It's a scene to which I've played, over and over Tomorrow holds hope, in the ways of the world Yesterday isn't an answer, but merely a word So bent, so tangled, so destructively gone I see the hands round the clock, it's now half past one Render me helpless, in an endless race, I'm trapped in a circle,monotonously traced A soul shackled by memories, and stricken with fear I reap comfort from rain, sigh relief through my tears No one to judge me, in the essence of man Tangled in this intricate web, called a plan Of life of course, cards dealt round after round In finding myself, and standing this ground Strength has been chiseled from all that is gone Courage defined by these cards read wrong This heart has grown cold, but I can't walk away The warmth in those eyes has willed me to stay The joker of chance, has ******* every ace Fate dealt the hand, and change set the pace One taste of those lips, curled into a smile Just one taste sparks a flame, to burn for a while While atoms collide, the earth is still turning This heart of mine, starved from this yearning For more of these cards, of hope being played Untangled from torture, love won't simply fade
