Not every honest thought
is full of truth.
Careful what comes out
in times of heat.
For honest thoughts can sear
a face with tears.
But truth will serve
and make a union sweet.
Namaste

Scribble me out in doubts and unfinished thoughts until you’ve made a mess of me, until there’s nothing left of who i was

Don’t promise me forever
i know you’re not going to stay,
one day my shaky hands and broken pieces will push you away
and you will get tired
and when you leave,
take every word you kissed on my skin,
nights i cried on the bathroom floor while you held me,
take back every single poem, every single scar you left on my skin where you touched.
Take back all those sweet words you whispered in the crook of my neck while our fingers interlocked and your warmth started to thaw my frozen chest,
take back all the drunken ‘i love you’s’
take it all with you because i know you’re spitting those same words down another girl’s throat

your words are like ink bleeding into my skin and i think they seeped too deep because now i can still feel you under my skin making a home in my veins.
“you’re beautiful” doesn’t mean a thing anymore, i buried myself so deep in you that before i knew it i was 6 feet under blank spaces, words unsaid and empty “i love you’s”.
I swear i will spend the rest of my life picking you off my skin.
That day you told me “i know i said this was a mistake i just wish you didn’t look at me feeling like one”

Take from my heart
this tender part
that longs to find
in you the same.
Too much to keep,
to hurt to fly,
afraid to play
a losing lovers' game.
And so in stone
it finds a home;
for if it hurts
then I'm the one to blame.
Sometimes you know before you can let go...

The freckles among your body are stars
Not because they make a shape
Or twinkle in the night
Not because they each have a story
Or are scars from battles fought
But because they hold a deeper meaning
Of everything you are
A constant burning light in life
That fills this darkest soul
People say u need to move on
Other say take your time
I feel so trapped in this little town
No matter what I do
There's a hidden frown
I found many women that are beyond compare
But how many of them would truly care
Problems arise they will run
And once again I'll be alone
By mornings sun
I'm so different you will see
I don't need *** for u to be with me
I want the cuddling and romantic nights
As long as your in my arms
Ik I will be alright
So don't be fooled for even a minute
Being hard love
Will prove if your heart is truly in it
So take your
Slow down you speed
Let's work together
And see if its not just me

You cracked my ribs and ripped my heart out, and stole the stars out of my sky and planted them in your eyes, in that moment i swear i realized that you were not my world anymore, you were my universe.  Now i’m trying to scrape up what’s left of me off the sheets we made love on, but my hands are still drenched in your blood.
You broke the right pieces of me, and i admire you for that.
No one has ever been able to take my breath away like you did that night you spoke like soft kisses on my neck while my hands were tangled in the knots of your soul, i swear it was the happiest i’d been in years. Remembering the comfort i found in your eyes made me feel homesick.
