Loose the love or loose yourself Put your feelings on a shelf Removed the barrier Flip the switch You know it’s the time to ditch Fill the hole Start anew So much of life yet to do He is gone You are here No more energy to shed a tear Take care of you Let him go It’s time to start a brand new show

A New Show
As I was driving along, not really paying attention to my thoughts, listening to an over played Taylor Swift song on the radio, I had a realization. I was happier. In that single moment I felt the change and I knew why.

How is it that I love someone who has scarred my soul.

I didn't get to say goodbye. Again. Not in the way I wanted to. Not in the way that made clear as the glass you shattered, that this was temporary. Not in the way that I could promise you that every firing neuron in that beautiful brain lights up your eyes like shooting stars. You think like the sky. Not in the way that came anywhere near answering WHY? Not in the way that stitched every I love you on the tip of my tongue together into so big a blanket I could swear, you would never feel cold. Not in the way that apologizes for maps making miles into inches that should only equal minutes But you realize once you're in it, wading through the hearts that could never find their way, objects on maps are further than they appear. Much like the face that i see in the mirror. I wish I was there. I wish you were here. I hope you don't hate me But I'm grateful to the sea. For catching you gently before rocking you to sleep in the arms of a stranger who in saving you, saved me. Like I am grateful to light and time and airbags and the dark side of miracles. I am not a religious person. But if you dont believe in guardian angels, then I have to believe in mine. Because I, sellfishly, cannot lose you one more time. My heart knows my throat like the inside of it's cage because that is where it found you, where I find it when I sit and I miss you, warming the words I always said I'd say. So until I do, stay. If it makes the space seem smaller, I have written you so many unsent letters that if I lay every word down end to end I could build you a bridge that wrapped three times around the moon So we could at least pretend, I'd see you soon. A bridge, strong enough to hold you and the fifty tons of memories that ware you like waves, Crashing against your ribs in a storm Where no heart is safe. I'm sorry you wake in sandy sheets That no matter how high you climb there's a beach at your feet. But not a single broken piece of you will ever be sand no part of your spirit was made from this land. You are one hundred percent sky spread between two precious hands And I'm just a star, who followed a bridge to the moon. I'll see you soon. I'll see you soon.

Their love was bound to be tragic They were cheating. They were liars By definition they couldn't be trusted Love without trust The greatest contradiction

The greatest contradiction
This morning on the train I saw a man who had lips like you. Slender and firm, lovingly powerful, perfectly matched for mine. A pang through the heart as he walked away - just like you.

Like you
Peering through lashes at his form He is more powerful than he gives himself credit for His body is strong and lean But his mind is stronger Layered with complexity and intelligence He is the first The first to break through her rules of life Logic becomes a distant memory Years of experience She is suddenly new, shiny and green His mind like a magnet His words an aphrodisiac His touch.. His touch, her reason lost She is in a new world In his world Each day she is high She loves the feeling Words become her rush Love becomes a crutch Eyes shut, judgement fades Quivering she cannot control He takes over her senses Pushing deep to her soul She loses herself No words escape her lips She is confused in a haze of euphoria Her high unimaginable Chocking with desire She is lost in his love But he is strong, stronger than her He just doesn’t know it Her mind crowded, her senses returned Now crashing Still lost , his love gone

she is new.
It feels like chaos Rolling through my veins Torn between love and hate Memories crash the senses What to do now? How do you live a life un-lived How do you move on not regret, not desire Wishing for a do-over Time passes looking for relief Fleeting moments of memory loss Life continues In motions of happiness The pain, the loss, the desire and obsession It's not about him Missing a love that was a facade So fooled and so amazing.

chaos.
Do they show The cracks in my heart Feelings seeping as I live Each day we're apart Do they see My sadness show through The pain on my face Each day without you Can they tell The days I am scattered My thoughts so unclear Even work doesn't matter Is it real This agony I know Are these feelings a trick As they continue to grow Does he know His impact on me The power he has Forever  "his T" In silence we exist Forever at odds So far apart ...

signs.
Amongst the pain and the sorrow are lightning flashes of fun Rolling and groaning, our bodies are one Soft kisses and touches, her body reacts Hair pulling, lip biting, the passion attacks Lost in his spell, little does he know She’s his forever, no matter the blow Parting words, harsh reality, nothing changes the fact He owns her forever, she’ll always come back
