Writing for the times my voice can't capture my thoughts like my pen can
Look at yourself from these mud brown eyes Then maybe You'd see the fire in yours

Fire
Your words filled the crevices inside my mind and they manifested into that mess that you address me as You simultaneously created and destroyed me

I don't want to talk about school or how your last test went or any small talk for that matter I want you to tell me about that new book you've gotten lost in or the way your father's voice shakes as he erupts in anger and blame for the third time that day Tell me about the scar that's just above your left eyebrow and why a candle is your favorite metaphor Show me the hidden parts of yourself and for you I might do the same

small talk
My favourite song comes from your heartbeat My wishes come from the galaxies in your eyes My sense of comfort comes from your embrace, for I am safest when your body interwines with mine Our worlds collided by fate, they molded by luck

I trusted you with my life, you knew every aspect of it I trusted you with the crossed lines on my thighs that are as open as I was to you All I asked was my secret to be kept safe but I suppose that's another promise you couldn't keep Give me back my secrets they are not yours to keep, maybe they could have been, had    i not been decieved

promises
You are in each tear that traces the familiar path down my face to the ground beneath me Slowly the water rises drowning me and leaving me completely emersed in your being.

rising waters
You wouldn't want rememberance of the end but it's always here clouding the back of my mind I can hear the beeps of machines and the way your laugh has weakened I can feel your yellowed skin that is cold at the touch I can smell that distinctive scent that comes along with hospitals, rubbing alcohol and old people I can see the hope that left everyone's eyes when we recieved word It was a hell of a fight

remembrance
Words with such substance deserve to be preserved A sweet moment or a tender touch is sufficient enough It does not always need to be said when your eyes can tell me instead When used as a filler it fills me with nothing

I love you
If I could I would plant sunflower seeds on every inch of my body so I know that one day I would become beautiful

I crave the feeling of being whole To feel complete But too often my thoughts come in waves and take parts of me away with the tide It leaves me with the familar void that needs to so often be filled Several shots of ***** later A few drags later A couple one night stands later I am filled I am filled until I wake from the feeling of water on my toes once again
