A chiseled face hovers above,
Panting and red,
And I force myself to love him,
Because nobody else does,
And I force myself to love him,
Because I have none to love.
The memories of a heightened voice,
Screaming no,
While others say yes.
And the pain of being stretched,
And the agony of being left,
When he was the one screaming yes.
I've lost my will to love.

If dirt be for the poor,
I am an oak,
But I take what I may from the barren soil.

Completely now,
but Never before,
Had I compared this room to a tomb.
and silently I remain,
keeping quiet,
While mind and body waste away.

Grandmother, stroke my hair until I fall asleep
Like the late nights when mother would come home stumbling
Hold me in your lap and let me tell you my childish secrets,
My wishes and hopes and dreams.
Grandmother, teach me to color inside the lines,
With a picture of a woman holding a banner covered in hearts.
And walk with me on a dirt path
That leads to our small home.
Grandmother, open your wondrous blue eyes again,
The eyes that hold my childhood.
And bring me back to those days.
When everything was blissful

Here I am with seeds you've planted,
Growing reckless.
And every word he says
I now despise
And every smile is soiled.
And every dream i had of him, now leaves me disgruntled.
And you've planted many seeds and they've just begun to bloom.
With every waking moment my mind is captivated by you.
And as his memory fades.
The stem and the petals die.
But the roots remain.

My blood flow switched.
Now it's head to heart.
My mind's made up before
the heart can reason.
And palms become dry
and sweat turns cold.
and fear becomes the same as joy.

The cold makes you porcelain.
I pray your porcelain's sustained.
Please stay like this forever.
An infinite image remains
Of Beauty in veins
Shown blue in skin now pallid evermore.
Why can't I join you
In dreams of winter and eternal brumal slumber.
If only I could grant myself,
Frigid serenity and repose.
And come to find you once again
Dancing in November snow

Shadows cross your face and spread wide across the hills.
The valleys of your beauty.
Beauty so far from my reach
Close enough to touch me.
Just too far to care.
