She never saw it coming. Oh no, How could she have? The girl in love. She never saw it coming, How could she have? She was talking. ALWAYS talking! God, why wouldn’t she stop? He wanted to love her. She was talking. ALWAYS talking! Why wouldn’t she stop? A parakeet, precariously perched. Why did she fall? He never meant for it to happen. Precariously perched. Why did she fall? Pretty Polly passed. Why did she leave? Pity pretty Polly. Pretty Polly passed. Why did she leave? Blood on the cage. Why had she stayed? He had never loved her. Blood on the cage. Why had she stayed?

Locked Away
His voice is like an ocean, Crashing over me in waves, Consuming me instantly. WHOOSH! Now gone. His smile is like a fire, Intense, flickering flames, Uncontrollably burning. SIZZLE! Now only ash. His eyes are like a lake, Reflectant pools capturing beauty, Rippling in the storm. DRIP! Now overflowing. He is a mountain, Tall, strong and proud. Beautiful, but jagged. Worn away with time.

Blame It On The Weatherman
Ray describes you perfectly. Intense burst of light in the Darkness of my life; Illuminating the whole room. Crazy and always completely Unpredictable. All the things I Love about you. You Open my eyes to new beauty. Unique in every way possible, with a Smile incomparable to the Gods.

My Best Friend, Ray
A string of hair Tied to memories All that was left in the morning.

One Night Stand
Your eyes are a forest; Deep pools of green. I try to navigate through, But always become lost. I cannot find my way out, And would not if I could. The tall, green pines shade me. Always protecting me. Keeping me safe; secure. I feel them watching, No matter where I turn. No escaping them. They go on for eternity. Never ending forest. Watching. Always waiting. Patient and wise. The forest is a doorway, A secret keeper, a home. I see myself, enveloped in the green. This is where I belong. I fell in love with the trees. I fell in love with the green. I fell, but I don’t mind, because Your eyes are a forest.

They Call Me Jane
Sometimes I am afraid to sleep For fear I shall never wake Afraid of the darkness consuming me Trapping me, suffocating me. I wish to never  sleep, To never fear  the darkness. To never wake, gasping for air, Another close call. I am thankful for the darkness And for sleep from which I barely wake For when I wake, The light seems brighter Somehow, always brighter Always reminding of how it shall fade.

A Silent Killer
It's hard to keep it all together with you pulling me apart. Crawling underneath my skin and breaking me slowly from the start. You could have anything you wanted, and baby, so could I. Except the thing that truly counts, that once thing... "You and I". No matter how much I fall apart, no matter how much I cry.. I never will stop nor will I give up, because without you my reflection is but a lie. I don't feel right, and I don't feel sane. Quite frankly I'm a ***** But looking in your deep green eyes, my love defeats the Lich. I feel at peace, I feel at home, nevermore have I felt secure. The touch of your lips as you hold me close is no longer what assures. I lay in bed, reaching for you, but your spot has long grown cold. I'd wait a thousand years for you, if only to grow old. It doesn't matter when or where, to see you is what matters. I just want for you to know, without you, my love, my life just simply shatters. I love you more than thunderstorms; unpredictable and chaotic, as am I. I love you, regardless of the pain and the ever cloudy sky. Words are simply powerless to tell you how I feel. I wish that I had one last chance to show you... just how potent and how real..
