i'm only human, after all / and my kind / is as strong as we are weak.
Sinking into my bed Used to feel so comforting But now, Without you to Leave the sheets all wrinkled By your incessant Turning and twisting To get yourself comfortable enough, It's now left to be just a bed A bed I sleep in A bed where I lay Every night, dreaming of you And wondering If all the twisting and turning You did should have warned me You were never at peace In my presence, I must've noticed But I let myself be blinded By how you'd pull me to you When you thought I was long gone asleep Or perhaps you knew Perhaps you knew all along I've been keeping myself up And trying to engrave in my brain The way you'd twist and turn In hopes of remembering You precisely once you left Because I always knew you Eventually would Leave me

Twist & Turn A Little More For Me
You'll know you're One of the many Messed up people When you start to think This way: If I die a crucial death, will those who love me imagine themselves to be in my place as I'm dying? You'll know You're as messed up As they get When you start to Think like I do

Think Like I Do
I constantly find myself trying to tell people I'm sad and it's as if they're all trying their best to not listen “When you knock but the door never opens, you eventually stop." (Not the exact words) — Miss Peregrine's Home For Peculiar Children

He's an artist. Always have been one. Whenever I shy away from his piercing stare he says, "But you're the canvas, medium and the art itself in human form, you have to let me— the word I wanna use doesn't exist but as an artist, I'd say it doesn't matter." That makes me give myself away to him every time. I'm positive I'll continue to give all I can to that boy as long as he asks for it. Heck, he doesn't even need to ask, I'd give him anything and everything in anyway and every way. All he has to do is continue giving me that look in return. Our relationship is based on a give and return cycle, after all.

Loved By An Artist
With animals stripped to their bones and clean plates on ***** tables to support our broken dreams that had been formed during the nights with only the eery silence to accompany us

Accompanied
Exuberant together that they were Blithe Did not come easily into their Life Admist the tragedies and fantasies They just didn't chime nicely like car keys Albeit the urges to not keep Their friendship intact grew strong They managed to not weep Over their relationship that was utterly wrong

Gone & Replaced last part
Gone was the boy who popped his collar And was always, always right Replaced him was the boy who prayed at the altar And behaved humbly with all his might

Gone & Replaced part 2
Gone was the girl who laughed loudly smiled widely and moved freely Replaced her was the girl who laughed rarely smiled falsely and moved shyly

Gone & Replaced
With your forehead Pressed against mine And our fingers intertwined With nothing but our breaths Behaving erratically Its vibrations Bouncing on the walls Like the creaky bed we're laying on And our sweat swirling together Us becoming one When you leave me Tangled in the sheets I'll miss you, sure But I can guarantee To you I won't come looking To be left again That's why I'll forget about you Even if I'd have to force myself I'd press my forehead against another Intertwine my fingers with a stranger Breathe into someone else's ear And not hold back On letting my sweat roll Onto the person who isn't you's back I won't hold back If that means forgetting you

I won't hold back if that means forgetting you
Don't you ever notice My care is in bits Now for you've rendered me Conflicted and now I'm in agony It's never the same Because then, that would be lame I always wonder Why you never stop to ponder Over your actions that cause Me to be lost
