My heart speaks words my mouth cannot form.
I’m free. finally free.. from your hold on my heart from your grip on my feelings from your lustful looks. I’m finally free, from this hell we’ve called “love.”

Sweet Freedom
You told me maybe.. maybe we could hang out maybe we could hook up maybe we could be together You told me to wait.. wait until you were ready wait until college settled down wait until we got jobs wait until we were closer We hung out. We hooked up. I waited until college settled down. I waited until we got jobs. I waited until we were closer Are you ready to be together?

Maybe, Wait!
I remember.. our first walk together, our first talk together, our first night together, our first fight together. I remember .. Your first glance and our first dance. I remember.. My shattered dreams and hateful screams. Your negative expressions and obvious objections. I’ll miss you, my dear. I do not remember.. how we got here.

I Remember
I used to think about you; Did you think about me? I used to miss you; Did you ever miss me? Weeks apart, dropped calls and ignored texts I eventually got over you. Did you ever actually love me? Did you?

Did you..
1 pill, 2 pill, 3 pill, 4. The empty bottle lies lifeless on the counter like, the body of a best friend. 1 slice, 2 slice, 3 slice, 4. Blood collects on the bathroom floor; a red ocean of self hate. The body of a best friend. 4 breath, 3 breath, 2 breath, none. Your family lost in confusion, the student body wails. Your friends don’t understand. We never will. Why?

4, 3, 2, none.
I find comfort in the loneliness and warmth in the homeliness of the cave entrapping my heart. Oh, babe, you played your part. I drank you in and worshiped your words, you tied me up, my vision blurred. I was blinded by your “passion,” a fatal attraction. You said, “not right now.” Well tell me then, how? How much longer will you make me wait? You said yourself, you could relate. You peered into my heart and heard what it had to say, you know I’ll wait until my persistence does pay. Growing as friends wasn’t just fate, I know you could be my true soul mate. Until you make up your mind, my feelings will remain unrefined. This loneliness cannot fade until the bed in which we lie is made.

I find comfort in the loneliness.
I try to speak but my words get lost in emotion and take a wrong turn at fear. Come closer and help me come undone, press your ear to my chest and listen. Each beat softly whispers your name, my heart speaks words my lips cannot form.

Lost In Translation
Only in my dreams can I find happiness. Is it because you’re a frequent flyer? Hand in hand we walk while tongue in cheek we talk. The glimmer in my eyes longs for your affection A mere distraction. Wake up.

Wake Up
I fear the darkness, For in the darkness, we dream. When I close my eyes Your face is all I see. Permanently etched into my subconscious I cannot escape. I fear the darkness, For in the darkness, I remember. I remember the warmth of your breath and the taste of your lips. I remember, I cannot forget.
