his arms were like the reverse side of the pillow after a long winter day; cold, lonely, yet somehow welcoming and extremely comforting.

She still sleeps in your clothes because they feel like home even when your arms are home to someone else now

If you're not willing to fight for her...let her go. To fight like hell with her To hurt and ache for her because you haven't seen her in a few days If you're not down to order carry out at 2am because shes Hungry... Let her go. If you can't promise to love her and all of her weaknesses Promise to love her on her bad days And good days And everyday in between... Let her go. If you aren't 100%'down for all of her and her flaws... You need to let her go. If you can't let her flourish and be all that she can be and support that... There's no reason to be with her. If you love her, let her go. Let her go and be all that she can be..

let her go
Love is.. Love is you and me Love is eating Olive Garden and Pizza Hut Love is playing call of duty Love is watching Netflix Love is working on cars Love is going to photo shoots Love is taking each other lunch Love is back rubs and cuddles Love is piggy back rides and dancing Love is fighting for each other Love is fighting with each other Love is disagreeing Love is painful Love is hard Love is rewarding Love is you and me And love is worth the fight.

Love is..
You'll fight and you'll argue You'll scream and you'll yell You'll smoke because you're mad You'll cut because you're numb He'll block you out of his life Only to keep you safe He'll be thinking of you every moment, Knowing exactly where he was when you called. He'll ignore your call because he's got nothing to say, Being ignored just isn't your style You'll blow up his phone Only because you care No one is there for him so you try to be He won't let you in, He doesn't know how It's just not his style, But it's completely yours. You can't wallow in your problems Because then they become scars. He can't speak right away because his thoughts become reckless. You deal with him and he deals with you You love each other deeply but it just might not be enough You fight and you fight to stay together The love and feelings are there The passion is there So what could be missing? Why can't you make it work..

three cuts and two smokes later the tears finally subside. She hates herself more and more for giving into the razor and the nicotine because the tears may be gone, but the feelings reside in her heard, head and mind for the rest of the night. She smells of smoke and her skin burns from the blade, but the tears have subsided and her mind is a bit clear. Her bad habits remain, but the tears subsided.

tears subside
He was quiet. Speaking only when necessary, but rarely at all. He was talented and loving, caring and funny. Until his love slipped out of his hands. Lost and lonely, Sacred and sad, He sat there, heartbroken and wondering what could be next. When the love was gone, talent prevailed; showing his true colors and the feelings he had within. He shared his thoughts with the world, and the world approved. The music came from the soul, reaching all who could relate to his devastating loss, yet had faith. When he found himself again, he found the love he once lost.  This time in the form of a human, not just a dog. Ah but that's just it- he was never "just a dog" he was man's best friend, hero and savior. She'll never save him the way that dog did, but she can surely try. Keeping his hopes and dreams alive, she stood by his side, never losing faith. When he seems to stray, she pulls him in, only to watch him stray farther.  The silence tugs at her heartstrings because she's said it all, and it wasn't enough. But what could she expect from a man so quiet, only his dog could understand?

What will become of us, when I have nothing left to say? When I'm completely burnt out, and have no feelings left to convey? Drowning in my sorrows, looking for more words to ramble on because rambling seems to be the only way. The only way to communicate the longing to save someone from my own nightmare. I talk to talk, hoping that someone will finally understand my jibberish words of thoughts i've compiled together. My words have lost their meaning, I'm speaking only to myself, trying to make sense of the words that come out of my mouth. I've nothing left inside me...Will you take over the talking? Longing to hear someone else say the things I've thought- quite the impossible thought if you ask me. How can I expect someone else to read my mind, then communicate it back to me?

failed communication
You rarely speak, communicating only your angst It tears me apart; only because I have so much to say. So much of literally N O T H I N G to say. I sit here and pretend that my words have meaning, when in reality, they're words filled with meanings I cannot yet convey. Why I cant get them through to you, I'll never know. Is it because I'm not good enough, or because you don't want to listen?

Keep me in mind when you're lonely at night. When you can't sleep Because the bed feels empty without me by your side Keep me in mind when you wake up for the fifth time before your alarm goes off in the morning When you can't sleep at night Because the bed feels empty without me by your side Keep me in mind. Because I was the best **** thing you had until you let me slip away. You let me slip away because you couldn't stand the idea of someone caring about you. So when the next girl comes along and wants to care for and love you, keep me in mind.
