20/M I'm just a regular guy with regular emotions. Many of my recent poems are about a breakup so for that I am sorry, but I can't choose my muse.
You said I left you alone in the dark But you were screaming with the lights on You said you didn't know where we were But you knew right from the start That we would crash and burn Like falling stars, we were crossed We were the enemy of the night But now we're lighting matches To help guide us home

Matches made in heaven
I want to jump in, swim in the river That runs beneath your porcelain skin I'll only come up for air I promise, I'll fill your lungs I'll be the medicine that you need I want to pump through your veins Like the drugs that you crave I want to be there when It all comes crashing down

Sink or Swim
That I saw the end coming Was nothing more than a curse I was helpless to to fix it all Unable to make meaningful change You opened dark, wanton doors You knew you couldn't close Picking instruments of torture From the bodies you didn't resist My objections were met with cruelty You brought forth sick resolution Consequences that needed no bearing The only choice given to me to make Was which poison I would swallow With but a smile and tranquil eyes It's true, I am the one who left you But you are the one who left scars

I left you, but you left scars
To show that a part of you cared When I fell apart at your knees Was all that I ever asked for But the contrast of other Sickly bodies against yours Was too alluring a thought For your hungry, depraved mind

I guess size does matter
Tonight I can feel the winter in my bones A calling yet for something I don't know Her soothing voice resides in my wounds A hollow resonance in the stillness Against an angry sky, she weeps For all that has been lost, All that hides away in the depths of the dark Until the bitterness of the morning light Can show once again that I am still alive
