I'm Sinead. I'm pretty much the poster-child for minorities. I'm a self-indulgent, pill-poppin', affection-hungry, attention-craving, anxiety-stricken, self-destrucive, obsessive-compulsive, touchy-feely, hopeless romantic. I'm like a little sad-eyed puppy, I just want to love and be loved. I'm overrated. I'm bad with words. I'm lost. But if you let me, I'll open your eyes and make you think. I love kissing. I love cuddling. I write. I read. I'm fascinated by the sky. I'm prone to having panics attacks. I love tissue boxes. I'm a dreamer. Blah blah blah... Nah, I'm just a small town girl looking for my place in this big, big world.
Damaging choices Circumstances of lust You loved me under false pretences This futile chasing of beauty mistaken for meaning Gone forever with the summer breeze These illusions, The touching of your skin, it doesn't mean a thing But it will always be the mind turning things around To create empty beauty to love, to fill the void of ennui But it shatters under scrutiny when we try to get closer, Try to breathe it in to reality It dissipates It disappears Each time So stay under the dome of imagination Never try to merge it with reality Love is a game You can't always win.

Past Lovers
The tragic story of a life not yet lived I lie unburied My bones shake like leafs in an autumn wind Tears fall from my darkened eyes Like solid pieces of silence The hands you once held are now tied like knots This is ugly, Like the future. We are constructed of light, Like humiliation.

?
Drown me in the intensity of your gaze And my lungs fill with lust As I sink into your warm embrace You've become part of me; the better part The blood in my veins The air I breathe A necessity When you're not here, the weeks drag on like years And the days I spend with you are over almost as quickly as they start But they're still some of the best times I've had You've won me over in no time at all

I think I'm breaking down With my heart held in your hands and my head against the sky It feels so right to be consumed completely I swear, something deepens within us It's moments like these that make me believe Your eyes could swallow me whole Reality becomes something foreign to us Living in the midst of our infatuation

Tranquil Devotion
A new chapter in my life The pages are tattered and torn The binding worn Read through it And there's still no answer Hold one ear against the ground But the dirt, it makes no sound A pregnant bubble of silence My eyes, Widened by surprise Covered with flies I **** the sky dry Trying to keep myself breathing But each inspiration leaves me with a bitter taste I need to breathe you in again Take you in Fixation Consumption with hope Desire For no one but you.

Read Between the Lines
We buried our love in a shallow grave And this lump in my throat is all that remains Every word that we spoke now bleeding into reality Carried away with my desire to be yours Until there's nothing left for you and me Nothing but my sick redirection to be hurt Longing for the mirrored perspective When I'll be able to forget The look on your face The obscured shadow in your eyes When I left

When I Left
I've grown to love Sundays and the slow-paced reveries that come with them. I've grown to love my home and the people in it. I've grown to love the winter. But only at night. I love how every tiny light reflects off the snow. How the wind blows across my bare face, freezing my juvenile flesh. Scream out, reach out, embrace Embrace the season Embrace the feeling Embrace life, right? I've grown to love my face. I've grown and I've seen and I've felt. I've lived and I've died and I've lived again. Reborn. I've hurt and I've been hurt. I've loved and I've been loved. I've followed and I've lead. I've grown to realize that there can't be a beginning without an ending And there can't be an ending without a beginning. So take what you're given, 'Cause it's true what they say; You never know what you have until it's gone.

Forever Flourishing
Eyes glazed with a sleepy despondency Imploding into nothingness Waiting for you to fall back into my life You're my angel with the bleeding wings Fallen from grace Cross my fingers Picture myself inside your kiss Breathe in I am alive

Sentient
It's been so long since I've slept My mind shattered and disfigured by the hurt Impaired by my sadness, I can't function Oppressed, trapped, by something much larger than me I can't help but feel distraught and empty So I'll take it out on myself The fine art of self-destruction

Wreck
The strongest winds, The harshest currents, Couldn't sweep away all the memories we've made There is no one else That could make me feel the way i do when I'm with you No matter how hard I try, You're always on my mind Invading the darkest corners of my head Plaguing my thoughts with the aching and longing For you r touch.
