F "Nothing ever ends poetically. It ends and we turn it into poetry. All that blood was never once beautiful. It was just red." ~ Kait Rokowski
You are the thorn in my bed Poking and prodding The demons I've long Hushed to sleep Here lies the anger So twisted with hate Forgiven and buried Too late Goodbyes with tears Resonating with grief So long not forgiven Will I ever find peace? You are the thorn in my heart Stabbing and soothing My demons I've longed Kept awake

The Thorn
Eternity in an instant. Camera flash and fading glow Burning our eyeballs Plastered minds have plastered smiles Lighting up the dark night Steamy laughs tease with vapors In the wind As we bundle up our jackets Tight An instant flash Burning in my mind Eternity is an instant.

What is Eternity?
When being vulnerable with the one you love Turns into the bullets That tear you apart

Do you actually see me? Read the words I write Hesitantly slipping you The truth of my heart Do you truly understand what my words whisper to you as my heart screams? I don't think you do. I feel so much in overwhelming waves But to you I'm overreacting; just sensitive What an insult to the thing I cradle close Can't you see the pain bleeding from my eyes? Can't you feel the pooling of blood from my heart I gave to your hands? No, you don't Because you set it down absently one day and forgot Why keep me around if you've misplaced my heart? I guess you can be careless if you never gave me back your own. Your fail safe You could have trusted me I trusted you

Fail Safe
Your pain Paints the other In evil colors When in reality You're just Vulnerable hearts Drowning Together

Drowning
Am I strong for not breaking down and ending an endless fight? Or am I weak for holding it in and giving up on a worthwhile heart? Either way, It hurts like hell.

Like Hell
I guess old hurts never stay buried If never forgiven, forgotten, at peace Losing you in a moment's pause Is building up that iron wall Banging the javale on my heart I'm tired of fighting for something you don't want Even though it's all I've ever dreamed of I like me better when I'm with you I strive to be your partner, your best friend And with you gone So is all the good in me

Giving Up
Reality never becomes a dream with you like all the lovers doped up claim. Floating in a daze, high on each others vibes, no. Life with you is reality and anything but is a dream I'd like to wake up from. There's a certain rooted strength in the clarity of your presence. Not just some sinful mirage of lustful desires and hopes that may slip away as fast as they came. My time with you is never a dream because dreams end in a saddened wakefulness. Time does not slow down nor speed up. It goes on as it does and submerges me in our reality.

Not A Dream
There is comfort In familiarity Even when we know it's wrong

Familiarity
Silence holds a ringing Of voices never there Echoing the lonely And a teardrop's despair
