I'm an aspiring poet, I love writing, I dream of being an author one day but for now I'll stick to poetry. / / "An eye for an eye makes the whole world go blind."
She holds me while I rest uncomfortably She grabs my hand when I'm lost in dark places. Her fiery spirit reignites the embers in my cold soul. With a kiss on the cheek she gives me the wings That I'll leave this dreadful mortal space with. She makes smooth the splinters in my conscience. When I kissed her again The bed of nails I was doomed to fall on Was transformed into a field of her favorite flowers. She takes away my itch for the volatile substances I crave so badly. She changed me. She makes me who I am.

She Makes Me Who I Am
The only part of my face that was even remotely recognizable was the space where my eyes should have been. Years of unceasing tears had washed them away until there was nothing left but two matching deep dark and bottomless pools filled with murky black water that ****** me right in until I was swirling and spinning pulled deeper and deeper.............like water rushing down a drain, rainfall spilling into a gutter. I was falling, flailing and there was no way to stop it. No way to claw my back. No way to spare myself the endless GRIEF. I was drowning.

GRIEF
*When I was small I walked on fairy dust and my dreams were as tall as skyscrapers towering above the universe inside of me, was the galaxy. I was born of the cosmos, full of light and love passionate in my quest to give this to others. But as I grew my star began to fade, stars need love and light to survive and deprived of both my blazing fire transformed into weak candlelight. At school I had learnt it was easier to hide your light than to stand out as different and be extinguished in an instant. So I kept myself to myself at the back of the class, knowing the answers but not shouting them out. I daydreamed, and doodled stars on the corners of my books, all the while I could hear the universe calling out to me to trust, that we are all born of this cosmic stardust.*

Cosmic girl
As you held my gaze to yours for the first time, I tried to stop myself from looking away from your loving gaze. As you held my hand for the first time, I tried to resist letting go and wipe my sweaty hands on my jeans. As you held my body close to yours for the first time, I tried to calm down to stop the rapid beating of my heart. As you press your lips against mine for the first time, I tried to stop myself from lifting one of my feet off the ground. As you start showing your eternal love to me for the first time, I tried to stop myself from shying away from you as no one has ever loved me as much as you. { E.I }

For The First Time
Ava holds me tight in her delicate skinny arms, And whisper perfectionin my ears. Ava comes to me at night, she fills me with dreams and leaves a kiss in my mind.    She breaks into pieces, like a flower loess its Patals as winter arrives. Lost I call out to her, not a whisper. Somewhere between obsession and perfection I lost control. All dreams were illusions, illusions which made me quietly bleed. And now I walk a blurry path unsure and lost, where the only exit is death . As I slowly dig my grave, I sit and watch time fly by, as my soul run away, my existence begs for redemption, begs  me not to give up, but I'm already far to gone. Ava penetrates your mind and controls your life. Ava is a liar
