At what point does something become unforgivable? Is it the moment when all hope is lost? When you strip the comfort of forever from an innocent mind? When u fall so hard you shatter the ground those around u are standing on, When you take the last breath of love from your lovers chest, When you steal the beating heart from a sacred and beautiful bond, When you fraternize with the enemy of your beloved for reasons unknown to all involved, Is it when you reach your hand into the bowl of trust and leave nothing but ***** fingerprints? Where is there to go when you’ve built walls of slippery vines surrounding you, suffocating you. Who do you ask for help without bringing them down with you? Misery loves company but no one loves misery.

I’m sorry
I know it's too late, But let me say one thing Im sad you're moving in with her. You know I still dream about that sometimes I wake up confused Wondering why it wasn't true trying to figure out why it didn't work The inevitable and unavoidable truth is that it was all my fault. I know I waited too long but I swear I could love you now Im ready to be scared of the love, the feeling of your love Im ready for the most dangerous and yet safest fall Im better now, I promise I think. I know I lost my chance but if you just gave me one more I would worship you the right way every part of you that tried to save me so long ago. I want to have all of you But I shouldn't keep holding on. I should let go. But how could I if I don't just at least let you know, Im sad you're moving in with her. You were supposed to be mine and I was supposed to be yours You were supposed to sing to me and I would write about you It was supposed to be us

A Fool's Ballad
I was at the doctor yesterday and they weighed me nothing unordinary obviously but seeing i was just a few pounds less than i thought i would be brought some sort of strange flutter to my stomach that sat there for the next few minutes distracting from the fact that i was at the doctor

is it ok
Maybe in the next life I'll be the musician. You'll be me and I'll break my own heart over and over again. Or you'll break mine. Or I'll break yours. You can have my words and all my thoughts Hold them as your own, I'll be soft and gentle with you Just as kind as the sweet songs you'll hum into my mind. You'll feel lost and push me away just to save yourself rom the fear of being alone. You'll hide away for days just waiting to be found and I will find you. I'll keep finding you over and over again. I'll save you from whatever strange idea has most recently creeped into your constantly turning mind. Ill save you only to give you your strength to run and hide again. We will play a vicious cycle, continuously returning to our inevitable goodbye. With each coming of the cyclical beginning of our end, we vow to pull at each others hearts a little more tightly than the last time.

Black Tea and Guitar Strings
Im not picking at my scabs anymore. They were right there always in sight. Seeing the blood well up into that single drop was always somewhat satisfying. Watching my body react But then I was always left with more time More time waiting for it to heal Its time. Its time I let it heal now. For good. The scar will always be there, but no longer there to be reopened It will never be able to bleed again. So I don't think Im going to call you anymore. Im not picking at my scabs anymore.

Red Wine Veins
I wanna throw up all the feelings you just shoved down my throat. All the guilt and confusion. The loneliness and lost time. I'm gagging on the pain and all of those hateful thoughts. They're filling me up and making me sick. The thought that you're done with me is slowly seeping into my bloodstream and slowing my heart. It's beating so softly trying to push through your crushing grip around my neck. The cold words dripping from your mouth are turning me pale and all I need is your warm body to wake me from this nightmare you have so perfectly orchestrated right in front of my tear blurred eyes but that soft morning will never come because you have left and you are gone and I am here still watching the limbs of my body begin to finally realize that they are never again to be touched by yours in that familiar and loving way So I will sleep with every intention of finding you tonight somewhere in my memories and wishing only to find you here in my bed when tomorrow comes.

I Know You're Out Drinking
I just wanna listen to you inhale for a moment and exhale the next I just want a little time to remind you why I'm here with you and just what you did that caught my eye on that funny little day way back last October I could do with some quick glances your way while you're not looking as to catch you in those moments you let your true feelings show, when you think no one is watching. I just want a few chances to brush my hand along yours in a crowded room of people we sort of know If only, if only to give a quick reminder of the familiarity that is still there. I want your tshirt smell to be my calm down after a stressful drive home from work and I want to share spaghetti with red sauce and cheap wine Kiss my neck and be my friend and hold me close because I need you so much more than I would ever show because the fact that I just wanna hear you inhale for a moment and exhale the next scares me into a million tiny pieces of worries But here I am wishing for another day in October to see if I could really be yours in the way I wished to be for so long

Can Openers are Handy
Just because you spoke my name in a new way does not mean that it is yours You held my hand and broke my heart with similar intentions Yet here you are in my mind and on my lips even though I'm pretty sure I let go of you months ago I've held the ribs of new souls and we did things I learned to do with you But I can't seem to smudge away your finger traced lines encircling my body I remind myself of the things I said I would never do And giving into you was recently added Yet here you are on my mind and in my bed How you escaped my traps of getting rid of you I'll never know All I ever wanted was to memorize your heart beat and have that tune beside me for as long as I could still hear Sometimes I cant remember what it sounds like and those are days I breath new air But it's nights like right now Where all I can hear is my own heart And it sounds an awful lot like yours

It's 1am and I'm pretty sure I have a cold
The lies you told between our lips Her skin's touch between our hands Defining secrets between our gazes Our clothes between our bare bodies Unforgettable truths between our minds Broken promises between our hearts A hard earned love split in half by easily made mistakes

Regrets
Missing links In the chains of our lives Almost a whole With a few holes You are my holes You and your body Your eyes lips and hair Your hands ears and back What if you came back Would it be what I know Our slow warm and familiar love Like not a single day apart had passed I cannot focus on the past When I saw you my mouth would water When I think of you my eyes still water Distance in mind and body You were my beloved somebody I was your beloved somebody We had inseparable bodies I need to forget your body
