To even think of her name makes those words bounce around my brain,
As hard as a head would be thrashed around a car in a crash,
For one To make me feel these very emotions, it makes me feel insane,
once they're out of your life its a missing piece never the same.
My chest aches and throbs like the bones of those passed their time in a nursing home frail, alone, waiting to die closing in on the last goodbye.
Her jade coloured eyes glisten like the gems they are, but only in a picture of my mind that it had taken, despite me wanting to forget, trying to not let regret stab through like a bayonet to my heart, it spikes through when i'm lonesome and the sadness overcomes my mind at dark times.
After All the time that passed all the tears we cried everything we learned I feel I'd rather die than lie and say i'm okay while drying my eyes and quickly running off with a quick goodbye.
Than have your name come back to me have my body shake and my conscious scream trying to escape this dream turned nightmare trapped in this reoccurring theme.
But for now you're gone and it might be for good for nothing I do can ever come close oh what I wouldn't what I couldn't say to make you stay
All the stones skipped to the sea making wishes on stars for thee all those coins in the fountain, all the words I put together a failed art none of which could fix my heart
I still wish I can I wish I might wish once more for this love to start almost every night hoping something might. just bring your beauty back
But there still nothing but aching in this sinking heart with no end in sight

I will not die.

My hands will go out from me
into dark waters becoming
two rays of piercing light;

They will dance electrically as
unbreakable columns of smoothness
sing saying,
“though love be a day, do not fear,
we will go amaying.”

The game of a few
For a crooked cause or two
A thousand lives to pay the price.

A hundred-harbored hate
On the sight of countless graves
And the love all cast aside.

A city's dreams
Destroyed by a single scheme
For the vindication of some.

A faction's victory
Over the world's melancholy
That cannot be undone.

When the less becomes greater
And pride will rise to power
Such will be the fall of man.
They tried to bring a little spark of light into the world
But she lost the child
As they got back home
The would be Mother started weeping
As the would be Father's sanity was fleeting
As he could not stand the sight of her crying
He walked up to her slowly and embraced her softly
Saying nothing for a few moments
To only softly bring up her hanging chin to look her in the eyes again and say: "We'll try again, honey."
A little poetic story i randomly came up with. I think i dig it.
She caught my dreams
with a net like
a broken winged firefly.

She stored it in
the mason jar
of her heart.

For you I can lay the secrets
Of the past thousand years bare
I profess the whispers of trees
And empty my mind of all my dreams
No one believes me the things I see
Quick to make one word out of me
Another waste of time
Romantic, naive
I'd tell you that I love you
But you never believe
I almost don't myself
If it weren't for the smiles I see
The things that I dream
If it weren't for silent nights graced by a whispering breeze
I wouldn't believe
In timeless abandon
Our species disease
Sowed by promises the stars made long ago
You think love is held in the ego?
Don't be absurd
That kind of abandon can only be timeless
So I love you all
What can I say
When my lovers insist on fighting
It splits me like lightning
Humanity what can I say
Your wounds are tender
Your scars are hard
Your stories don't mix
I get it you're ******
But I love you evermore
Even after your heart has been torn
So please stop this madness
I've had enough of you in caskets
We have plenty to do
I want to recreate the world
With you
Do you see yet what splits us in two?
Why must we insist
To not resist
The worst of things
Is it a cycle like the rain?
As inevitable as death?
Can't we rest and shed tears
Can't I hold you without fear?
I love you my dear
Because when things are clear
I know we have always been right here
Twirling in time
Being different people
But the rhyme still shines
And I'm going insane
I'd be committed by you
If I confessed what's on my mind
Rambling about love and sunshine
How there's not one thing more alive than any other
And my suspicion that we're actually all the same
Unconventional to say the least
But so was it to say there was a globe beneath our feet
So I sit here and pray
That one day it'll be obvious
And in the mean time I hold the rain
Because I promised to catch your tears
For all my dead lovers
All over the world

Delilah baby I can feel the weight of you in my arms.

I can feel my k to z love for you and see how that laugh of yours makes people cry
and how that smile pierces my heart because it looks just like his did.

I can feel the sun kissing each one of our toes as we sit overlooking the grand canyon in the kaleidoscope sunset.
your spider fingers are wrapped in my hair like a plea to never be left alone
your spindle legs are all knobby kneed and pale entwined with mine.

baby he left me not you.

I was a hurricane and he loved you too much to look

afraid that one glance and he'd be head over heels reeling out of control
like you were the drug and he was the addict.

they say everything happens for a reason and you are my reason.

Delilah baby you are the here and the now of forever.
the stop sign on the corner is an obstacle for street racers but its a godsend because its just enough of a pause for me to kiss you between the eyes.

and I can't ever finish anything so this story isn't complete

and at the top of the pass where the air is clear enough if we sing loud enough maybe he will hear us and remember who he left behind.

I can't breathe.

The air that you
so proudly gave me
is sickening.

I'm choking on every word
you said
whenever you claimed
we'd last.

We failed and I promise you
it wasn't my fault.

You were the one who wanted to push
my limits.
I said no and you said yes,
so you won.

I'm sorry that I wasn't
mature enough
for you yet
even though I was older.

I wanted more things in life,
while you wanted
texts and anything
that I refused.

You left and I
didn't cry.
It was for the best that we
went our different ways,
but I can't stop
thinking of what
we could've been
if you actually
loved me.
I can hear it, can you?
The voice in my head that says; let’s just have one, maybe two
Try as I might, fight, fight, fight
I always give in to the craving
Straight down to the pub, I feel a little strange
I feel dazed, and confused, why am I here?
I feel guilt and I feel shame
It’s not going to happen again
I’ll never touch another drop, after this shot
Last hangover was death
I felt I would die
I felt anxious, I felt crazed
I felt like running away
Why did I drink until dawn the next day?
Now I remember the day I got drunk
It felt like a calling, a job to be done
you’ll drink until you’re happy, don’t answer back
and so I obeyed, until my whole world went black
And here I am again, preparing to drink
standing in line, waiting for service
anticipation, my heart races faster
I know it’s not good, but I just can’t help it
The thought of the sweet liquid, warming my heart
the laughter I’ll share, the fun I will have
then I hear the voice, urging me on
let’s just have one drink; it’s nice to feel nice
No! I hear you this time
It’s over, my friend
I see you this time
You are me, but I am not you
I grab my coat and head for the door
