I claim to know something about nothing
"Have you ever read the book "He's just not that into you"?" Is how this conversation started. Within a matter of minutes my head had been slammed into the spinning door of consistent "he's just not that into you"'s. But I can't help but hear your voice fill my head with fog, condensation of your velvet voice trapping me again with your sweet nothings. Sweet nothings that led me to believe you were into me. My heart breaks at those words. What made me so awful? Is the only question I can ask myself. Once the question is posed I'm brought to my own personal court. Trying to defend myself from my brain mapping out all the wrong things I've done, all the things wrong with me. These are the reasons nobody loves you the prosecutor yells at me. I have no more defense left. The only answer is to slap on the handcuffs and accept that my heart is just not worth loving.

He's just not that into you
I want to moan out Your name And feel your fingertips start fires On my skin I want the graze of your kisses On my lips You've awoke desire Creeping slowly from my belly I can't help but feel the blaze of lust fill My bones And my heavy heartbeats that now pump Your name through my veins I need you to put out the flames This spark created Because my body can only last 3 days without water And my water is you

Fire
She was listening To the chatter of the crowd The accusations like bee stings A pinch of pain She was listening To the praise in her awards To the freedom in her laugh The joy that mends her wounds She was listening To the fight inside herself Reinforced by her surroundings The joy has dissipated into doubt She grew quiet Her wounds weren’t mending The bee stings turned into daggers She is left for dead She became silenced Because no one believed a word she said She had no breath left to fight Their words became her She continued on Her thoughts consumed her, leaving her empty Day, Night, Asleep, Awake With no soul to care She believed A future she would power towards A life she looked forward to Maybe not today, but someday.

A Shower of Words
After what seems like an eternity Of a long line of "could've"s Pieces of my life are falling perfectly Like the leaves in fall Or the snow in winter Similar to the loose petals of flowers in Spring Just as the grace of the wind carried them It is carrying me To have everything come together Like the perfect symphony Composed effortlessly

Seasons
And With the rage of a thousand tsunamis I want to slap you across the face Tear down your walls Rip up our roots And wash away the pain But then I want to kiss you better Hold your hand Feed you and give you shelter Now that you have none And say I'm sorry Over and Over and Over Again

You
No amount of people can fill the hole you left in my heart. No amount of anyone can cleanse you from my insides. You’re moss; growing strong from the waves of my tears that stream endlessly. You leave longing in my heart. The days are spent drinking you away but, as a ship must come back to port, my heart always comes back to miss you.
