I've been told to take a breath And to soak in my young-ness Without a shadow of a doubt I thought I couldn't wait to get out of this mess But the years keep on moving And I just keep circling Around the dreams I used to have Wondering what happened to the soul I used to carry But I guess growing older Means there's some things you have to bury.

Discovery
I have words floating in my head Would it be different if I had said something else I don't know who I am to me I don't know who I'm supposed to be How do I express what I feel When I can barely tell what's real and what isn't Fantasy seems like a whole different galaxy inside my head Honestly it's been hard getting out of bed Words haven't really made sense lately Ever since you've left me And I'm trying to be okay with the fact That I haven't felt this way Ever since I was a little girl But maybe one of these days I'll find the words That explain how I feel And I might find some peace of mind But until then I'll continue to look for you in others While I try to figure out where I should start looking for myself.

Self-expression.
Your voice lingers in the back of my head It echoes when I wake up Trying to slump out of bed The way you looked at me felt like magic But your existence is now nothing but a painful memory We push and pull, back and forth My heart aches at the thought of you I imagine you with her in bed While my thoughts race Maybe I'm better off dead But you refuse to leave and I can't stay And we can't seem to find a way for us to communicate But you called me last night so I took the bait Cause who knows when I'll get another chance.

Golden boy.
I need a stranger to burn their fingertips on my skin To leave the marks of their lips on mine Kisses that taste like sour wine Because they're not yours I need touch to get rid of the aching My heart has of you I crave your arms around me But instead I'll spend a night with someone I don't know Simply because it's easier than saying your name I wonder how many random people I will need to kiss For your existence to be washed away from my tongue by their saliva And I wonder how many sleepless nights I will have to spend with people I just met Just so I don't dream of you You are a nightmare that I keep reliving You have burned my insides with such a wild fire that could heat up the moon You have melted my walls down But god ****** Does the fire make me feel alive.

you're something else
You put the stars in my sky You made flowers grow in my lungs You nearly made me blind making the sun shine so brightly But I can't breathe And I'm so exhausted spending my nights awake looking up at the moon I am a winter person prepared for the cold My skin doesn't know how to accept the warmth of the sun And I don't know how to tell you Just how much I love you And I forever will Because you made me see that even my darkest nights carry the hope of a new morning But you can't be my home because people leave And I will be empty in the streets Wishing I could spend a night in your arms But I will love you forever Because you put the stars in my sky And you made flowers grow in my lungs But I am so tired And I can not breathe I am so sorry that I have to leave.

4am and you've not been around for a while
my heart beats so fast I think about you at night but not last I see you everywhere I look at you and I will always care I look at you and I think about me and I'm never going to be free I see you and I think you are the one I wanted

Love Poem
You tell me your lips taste like sadness I bet your skin is like the universe You're hiding galaxies in your eyes And I swear I can see the stars when you smile You shine on my life like the bright glowing sun And you guide me through the night Like a moon when the day is done I wake up with your existance kissing my face My fingertips wake up to find your body laying next to me As I explore every inch of you And thank god you came into my life Because these days Things haven't been okay And you always end up making me smile You always end up making my day You are a petal that fell from Eden When I feel like I've been beaten You lift me up with your lips Place your hands on my hips And baby, I promise you We can create a storm that will sink all ships.

I told you I'm gonna write
Sometimes I wonder if I would actually love you if You actually loved me

I can't believe I ever wanted you I can't believe I ever needed you I can't believe I ever cared for you I can't believe I ever loved you I can't believe I still do.
