You will rise again
You have been beaten down
You have been abused
You have been torn down
You have been told you were nothing
You have been told you can’t do it
You are plagued by residuals
You are tormented by demons
You are tortured by nightmares
You are attacked by PTSD daily
You are reminded of it all by your scares
You are so tired of it all
Yet you survived all of it
You continue to live each day
You continue to smile
You continue to thrive
You continue to overcome
You continue to be strong
You continue to rise

Let me hold you close
Whisper everything will be alright
Give me all your troubles, your burdens, your pains
Give me guardianship over your secrets
Let me mend any broken pieces
Let me be your safe harbor, your sanity
Tell me everything and never hold back
It will be alright my love
Let me be your sanctuary, your refuge
Your safe place
Forever

It's ironic how when the smoke clears and it's all said and done
You can look back and see where everything went wrong.
Where cracks turned into holes
And those holes ended up swallowing up all the love.
After you're done lashing out at the one who left you,
You truly realize you left them emotionally a long time ago.
You gave them no choice but to walk away.
They painted a perfect picture you never bothered to look at.
They gave you all the ingredients to make the perfect relationship
That you never incorporated.
All the tools to build the perfect future that you left setting on the shelf.
You can sit there and blame yourself...yeah maybe it is your fault,
But at some point you too must move on and realize
That maybe you don't have another chance with that person,
But they taught you how to not ruin your chance with the next person.

I hide behind wool
My teeth and my claws
I walk as a man
But I’m not one at all
I won’t draw blood
No flesh will I render
I hunger for something deeper
That you will unwittingly surrender
I’ll tear through your heart
And feast on your soul
I’ll consume it all
Leaving you empty and cold
I leave you discarded on the ground
Shaken to the core
Then I make you watch in disgust
As I feast once more.

I can’t miss you any more than I do. Every breath that I breathe gives me another second to miss you and if I stopped breathing at this moment, my last thought would be of you. Every time my heart beats it says your name. Every time my brain cells communicate with each other they talk about you.
I can’t want you any more than I do. It’s that type of want you can feel it burning in your bones. A desire so strong it borders the realm of need. A craving that is so deep it can never truly be filled even with your presence. A longing that is so overwhelming at times it suffocates me.
I can’t love you anymore than I do. If my love were a tangible thing our universe would be too small to contain it. If my love were put into words they would fill the entire library books that have ever been written and all that have yet to be written. If my love could be calculated it would go passed infinity.
I can’t…anymore. I can’t miss you…anymore. I can’t want you…anymore. I can’t love you…anymore. My brain can’t think of you anymore than it does. My heart can’t desire you anymore than it does. My soul can’t long for you anymore than it does.
I can’t feel any more than I do and I know in my heart you feel this way too.

I swear every day smells like you
You’re in every breath I take
The sun radiates with all your love
The moon gives me your kiss goodnight
Everything I eat doesn’t taste as good as your skin
Every morsel doesn’t sustain me like your embrace
I see your face on every corner of every street
You haunt my every thought, every corner of my mind
Like background noise on a phone call
Like steady chatter at a nearby table
Every night I climb those 15 steps
I know you’re not waiting for me up there
But god knows it always feels like I just left you

I can’t seem to get it together
Everything seems to slip through my fingertips
I can’t seem to catch my breath
Everything seems to be suffocating me
I can’t seem to get back up
Everything seems to be pushing me down
I can’t seem to catch a break
Everything seems to be breaking me
I can’t seem to get any relief
Everything seems to be stressing me out
I end each day on a sad note
My life right now is madness
I look at the clock it’s 00:00
And all I want is some peace

Your love given
The extent of which
Seemed to know no bounds
It seemed to have no limit
But it had a limit
It ran out on me
And then you did
The damage done
The extent of which
Shredded my heart
And cut to my soul
I thought at one time
It would devour me
But it didn’t
The damage done
Doesn’t overshadow
Your love given
It cancels it out
It takes the counter back to zero
It erases all the years put in
And all that’s left are ghosts

Touch me with your hands. Your hand lightly placed on my arm as you giggle at my silly jokes. Your arm wrapped around mine as we walk under the moonlight. Your hand placed on my shoulder gripping it tightly as we kiss under the stars. Your hand interlaced in mine as we sit and share the day.
Touch me with your heart. Love me through my darkness and add your light to mine so we shine brighter together. Heal me with your presence when life wounds me. Reflect all the love I give to you back to me and I will do the same to you.
Touch me with your body. Wrap yourself around me so we create the warmest, comfiest knot in the world. Wrap yourself around me as we become one and burn in a passionate blaze all through the night. Rest you head on my chest as we drift off to a deep slumber.
Touch me with your soul. Open yourself up and show me the deepest, darkest and most intimate parts of you. Open your soul so that mine can seek refuge in its light. Bear yourself to me, vulnerable and trusting and I vow to do the same.
Touch me with all of you. Touch me with your hands. Touch me with your heart. Touch me with your body. Touch me with your soul. Touch me until I can feel you in every part of me, in every part of my being. Touch me with all that you are and I will return the favor.

What once was
Can never be
What we were
Is just a memory
A shot to my heart
A cold delivery
Was it really that bad?
For you to do this to me
All that time
Erased
All those issues
Never faced
All that love
Now a bitter taste
All that I was
Was replaced
What now is
Will forever be
Her and I
She and me
This is the way
It was meant to be
2 hearts
Beating in harmony
