when i am away the butterflies go too the best parts disappear and i steal them back from you when i am away my mind goes back to bed but my body is still moving just walking without a head when i am away i go through neon doors mindless and wandering about and nothing i'm looking for when i am away is when you like me least but trying to fight is pointless when you lack a sword to **** a Beast

away
the city was asleep while i was awake among myself but beside others the milky moon watched as i listened in to the sound of a nearby open mic i looked to the inky sky only to find myself feeling nothing but the absence of light i felt myself waiting and searching for something seemingly impossible and inevitable the streetlights blinded me and i soaked in my own exhaustion and loneliness fueled by the night

lonely.
i told you i loved you in a violet sea under a setting sky a magnificent orange kissed your cheeks before i could do it myself we were intertwined and the youthful night lied before us covered in our own colors our love was even more handsome and stirred between us we were blind to the others and halfway drowned in burnt sienna when the sun had gone we filled the empty night painting the earth with the color of our love

the color of love
maybe if the walls are decorated they will make me less sad maybe when i decorate them my mind will be focused maybe if i draw on post-its with shaky hands it will make everything less jumbled and i can breathe when i hang them why can't i breathe? maybe if i stay in here and slowly suffocate i won't have to grow up and worry any more maybe if i don't eat i can be pretty and light and i can be loved and i can have worth maybe when it's over my colors will change and i won't be crazy

my colors are different and they live in my mind i spent so long unaware that these colors are mine sometimes they are sad and sometimes bring pain but they cannot change and that makes me insane i wish they would go and let me have peace but i am my colors and my colors are me

colors
when the line was there to comfort, and i heard you breath a sigh, i never even had to worry because i knew we would be fine. when we spent the day in bed and talked about our lives, we became less than two and i watched the fading lines. when they told us it was melodrama and i felt our lips entwine, everything had disappeared in this little room of mine. when you were on the other side and i was left alone, i never could stop needing you because you were my home.

writer's block
her heart was paralyzed and her hair growing thin their love she idolized left marks on her skin she flushed all her pills she trashed all her blades but heartbreak still kills and the pain never fades she wanted all she could and she gave it all she had her intentions-- they were good but she was just too sad

for k.c.
Such a little baby, So green and so small, Think of how crazy, No one wants her at all. Some say that she’s vile, Some say that she’s cruel, But all the while, This just gives her more fuel. Though all the things said, The girl does not crack, All this has led, To a knife in her back! They say that she’s wicked, It’s chaos they’ve brought, Her aura is livid, Wicked’s something she’s not! She is not all these things, Her compassion shines true, All the hurt that it brings, Makes her look like a fool. In a panic and a hurry, Her whole life is changed, The girl now must scurry, In fear of being caged. She runs and she flies, To a place far away, For herself now she cries, She’s safe for the day. No one is born wicked, It’s something you become, Though she’s been afflicted, She is still full of love.
