you told me as i laid in bed, of our soon to be: of the garden we shall call our own, the morning walks to bring us home, and the days where movie midnights cause laughter to fill the rooms would make us whole. this was what any soul yearned for, this was what was suppose to be.. yet i am shaking with fear, weak on my knees. i was not scared of my future, until you stapled yourself into my soon to be.

your supposed promises of love gave me nightmares.
it's stuffy in here, with all these tainted promises and memories that have been stained. for a while, i wanted to keep it this way, but now, looking in this room of mine, i realize i would much rather have the fresh air fill my cluttered chest and to breath in the moments to come. so, open all the windows in this room of mine; yes, this will do nicely.

why is it that no matter who my heart comes to love, i can only think of you when my pen hits the page?

brainstorm
the young girl, who's tears stained her cheeks every night for half a decade, and is haunted by ghosts of false-hope and another person's greed, is turning seventeen. she has grown, so much that the scars  have begun to fade, and looking around, she realized life is bad, but she can make it worth living. so, instead of letting the hauntings take her under at night, at seventeen she got a camera, and decided that i will keep moments that make me realize **life doesnt **** and take them to my grave

look how far she has come.
truly, all i want is to sit down under the dark sky and replay every word, every touch, every moment you and i ever shared over and over again until dusk cuts the silence. then maybe, i may be able to gather myself as the light kisses my face and i shall finally walk away from the idea of you

day break
i forgot what it felt like for you to lean over me, covering my frail body from the cold world. i can't explain this, because for every moment i hate your presence, there is another to counter how i miss your smile. we are not, yet we used to be, and i have fallen in love with the sinful glances we steal at each other, the unspoken language we recite with our bodies' every time you and i are near. the adultery of the century, that will never be clear.

there is no story.
do you remember the time you said, "darling, come with me" and the world melted away. when your hand met my own the sky became streaked with a aurora of lilac petals and violet rivers. how did i ever believe the sky was beautiful before i looked at it through this kaleidoscope formed by your fingers around mine?

lavender.
for you.. a brush of your hand,              meant - i am glad i have you. a hug with your head to the crook my neck,              meant - you are mine a kiss before you drove away,              meant - i am coming back. a hand on my cheek,              meant - i love you, why dont you see that? for me... "i am scared to be alone,"              meant - i need to know you wont leave. "i cant do this,"              meant - i do not want to hurt you. "maybe one day,"              meant - i do not see you staying that long. "i prefer looking someone in the eye,"              meant - *i see what you mean with every action, but you refuse to   see what i am saying. and that is why we never worked,   because we both know you were to scared, and had only brushed the surface..."*
