drunk
He feels something is wrong. even while he sleeps a distance he cannot cross when his eyes are closed but open when her body lies beside him yet never within his reach. He can feel her sadness through him,
 while her silence grows heavy. 
He doesn’t know what to do
 with hands she will not hold, 
with lips that turn away,
 with a heart that stiffens at his touch. At night he hears the whispers when she thinks that he is dreaming,
 her secret sighs when she believes he’s gone. and the hidden lump beneath them. As small as a secret, but sharp as a thorn, a toy she turns to 
where his love cannot follow. Why not him?
 Why not the man who longs 
to give her everything?
 He doesn’t understand.
 why she cannot bear his touch. She tends to herself in silence,
 while he lies awake pretending to sleep aching over a love
 and lust he cannot mend.

The Prince and the Pea
Come far away, come fly away. It’s another day in the sun. don’t know where to go, just followin the road running won’t change our fate. where does the highway go to die ? We’re too far now I feel the breath of a gun on my neck I can already feel the crows staring to peck all we can do is wait till they come. Come far away, come fly away. another day in the sun. waiting for the crows to come Time to face what we have done there’s nowhere left to run. How long stands between us and a shot gun. Come far away, come fly away. It’s another day in the sun. Till the crows come.

The Crows
You're my sweet addiction, my ****** a constant pull I can't give in. I thought I beat you and left you behind but the scent of you still lingers in my mind. Last night I dreamt of you and you seeped in an addiction too strong, I can't begin To shake the hold you have on me, it's all too real. I'll give in and lose my will. For three long years, I fought the urge, to give in to the addiction, your endless surge. feeling you again, it's all too clear, the hold you have is still so near. I remember the passion, our untouchable love, our soul tie unbroken, ordained from above. I see the truth and the cost it demands to live in your shadow with bound feet and hands. I'd still risk it all, my heart and soul To fill this void and feel somewhat whole. I know it's a lie, a fleeting bliss, I'd be drowning again, lost in the abyss. So I'll keep fighting you as long as I can. I’ll keep you at bay, and push you away. You're my addiction, my poison, my heroine, I'll choose life for now, and let you go again.

Soul Tie
I feel like I have no other option Like it’s the end of the world and I’m not going to have time to find anyone else. or I get out and realize that you’re better than everyone out there and that means I have to settle with you. I stay because I can’t afford my home with out you and I don’t want to be poor and go hungry. it’s because I’m afraid of being alone and I don’t have any friends to comfort me these are all very good reasons to stay. but you’re a slob. and you don’t listen to anything I say I could tell you a thousand times to put your things away but I will keep finding them in the same places do you just not care about what I say ? you say you are listening but are you even in there ? you don’t make time for me. but I make time for you it seems like all the effort in this relationship comes down to me. You’re not funny. you can’t even make me laugh your humor is childish and dumb I smile so rarely. You’re a child who doesn’t communicate. when there is obviously something wrong and I ask you what’s the matter and you tell me it’s nothing but I know that it’s something so I ask and keep asking until you finally give in to my interrogations why can’t you just communicate your feelings and thoughts I feel like I’m talking to a brick wall. you get angry because I won’t have *** with you. I have low libido because you disgust me and deep down inside I know I don’t love you anymore. I DONT WANT TO SETTLE I don’t want to marry you I don’t even like you but I’m too scared to leave you.

I wish I could yell at you And tell you, you are making a mistake I could hold you and tell you its okay I know you are scared and so lonely you don't care about the decisions you make you are to wrapped up in your own emptiness and your hollow heart aches. You don’t know a lot of things but you know you are alone But you are just so **** stupid, I wish you could've known. But you didn't and you don't. Do you even care ? about me; your own flesh and bone? And what will happen because of these failures and flaws? Was it worth it ? The boys? The drugs? or The reputation you gnaw? But the worst of them all is The disappointment your parents had for you, The sadness and suffering that you put them through. I know that it hurts. But it just didn't matter. There was just too much going on in your little mind, you pushed all those feelings deep down inside. Leaving me to deal with this dilemma, but I can't run and hide. I want to grab you by the shoulders and scream in your face But it's a one sided mirror and you can't see you’re replaced.

My Carnival Mirror
friends will be quick to show you just how much they don't care when you need a hand on your shoulder or someone to have your back just watch how they quickly disappear like a mirage in the desert heat it's an illusion they're cardboard cutouts the truth is they were never really there in the first place so you can't blame them for being fake

Fake Friends
I'd rather live a lifetime alone, because being a woman is so vulnerable. We fragile flowers with beautiful petals that everyone wants to pluck it doesn't matter what the flower says if their mind is already made up. I could never trust another man and god knows, I don't want to. When all they've ever done is take from me but for some reason, never you. You took me by the hand and asked me if it was okay, you put me in the light and for the first time I felt safe. But, I did what I do best, I went and I pushed you away, so I'd rather live a lifetime alone. because I can't trust a predator as prey.

A Scared Flower
my voice has grown tired screaming for attention my cries falling off what seems like deaf ears. I know you hear me. I know you're in there. I shake my fists at your face, wanting so badly to hit you, so that you might notice my display. I want to grab you by the shoulders and shake you senseless, then maybe you'd hear my plea. and I wouldn't feel so helpless If you'd stop and look at me. my voice has grown tired and quite horse and still you remain quiet so I wait and I wait some more and still; I don't hear a word. so I curl up on the floor and grieve everything I have heard.

A Frequent Conversation
I have touched a thousand times but I know when I feel your love you are the only one to ever touch me in this way I've never felt before. To be yours I'll give up who I've been and who I was for who you are and who I will become. You surrender to me your strength and are as gentle as a dove I am your fragile flower and you protect me with all your love. I will always bring you up and cherish you for the man you are and the man that you will become, I will be the foundation for what you build until thy kingdom come. I will always be yours and you forever mine. Together til the end of time. in this love called: love my knight and king, your flower queen together we'll conquer the world just you and me.
