It's better to have loved and lost than never having loved at all
I'm calling *******.
To have someone convince you to let them hold your fragilest parts?
Then look you in the eyes as they let them fall to the floor?
Leaving you wondering why you weren't enough?
When my bed is cold from the lack of your body heat?
How about not being able to stop seeing you missing from every new memory?
I'd definitely log those under "never having loved at all"
But wouldn't I do it again, wasn't it all worth it?
For the way you cradled my head in your arms humming softly as I fell asleep?
Learning from you the meaning of passion?
Falling deeper and deeper in love every second I saw you smile?
Singing our hearts out together in every car ride?
Yes.....
Yes, it was worth every agonizing moment

I consider myself an impression of art....
Not the art you see in the museum's or the galleries
But the ones left unfinished and imperfect
The blank end of the canvas
The absence of completion
I am each erased line, the unsteady brushstrokes, and every mistake that leads to the Masterpiece.
I'm a work in progress

I will sit and light this cigarette
Smoke burning in my eyes so I have an excuse to cry
It's a habit you had me quit
But now that you've quit me
I needed to find something familiar again

I can't run from the pain of loving you, I have come undone once again.
I want you so badly that I'm willing to compromise on who I am for you to be more interested in me
Tell me life is beautiful and I'd believe the lie, as long as it were spoken through your lips
Tell me the world is purple and I would look through eyes of lilac petals
I was overly in love entirely too quick I happily broke my back to pick you up from the ground each time you fell
But when I faltered, when my steps became unbalanced when I stumbled to the floor
You kept walking without a second glance, taking a new hand to hold you up

Love, is the only cures that we wish upon ourselves every single day.

I'm the same as anyone else, I smile,I laugh, I go to work.
People around me see a friend, happy and excitable
I'm the same as anyone else.
As the hours go by, my smile fades and my laughter becomes quiet
Dragging myself down for sleep I lie in bed as the aching dread begins to surface
I'm the same as anyone else
I feel the flooding shadows of what use to be
When you were lying next to me
Our bodies intertwined
Legs pretzeling together
Arms wrapped around each other like boa constrictors
Heaven could not have been closer
Or so I believed...
Did I hold you too tightly?
I wonder if I backed off would you have been relieved?
Did I say I love you too soon?
I only said it because I ment it
But you couldn't handle the pressure
Of our relationship so you
Twisted and contorted
Wriggling your way out of my arms and into another's who wont EVER be able to you hold properly
Does he know that you love the smell of lilac but Purple Orchids are your favorite?
Will he fully appreciate how beautiful your eyes are when you are just about to fall asleep?
Will he notice how your nose scrunches up when you really smile?
How your ears turn red when you get embarrassed?
Will he play connect the dots with your freckles?
Or count each one with a kiss?
I'm the same as anyone else.
I wish I was unique in this, I hate to know that others have experience this same thing
......
I'm the same as anyone else.

You stand victorious, the crowd cheers your name.

The sound, like a wave upon the shore.

You walk, the broken lying around you like fallen branches.

Flashes of the battle that just ensued.

You were surprised it lasted as long as it did.

But as the dust settles you think to yourself "How the hell did I survive..... again?"

Love is the only cures that we wish on ourselves every single day

You promised me we wouldn't fight
But the words you used like ammunition in a machine gun, were not ones of love
 You promised me everything would be alright
But now we're sleeping separately
 You promised me our future was bright
But all that I can see are dark days ahead
 You promised me that we would talk
But your silence is speaks louder than your tongue
 You promised me I was your everything
But apparently everything was your code for nothing
 You promised me your love
 You promised me a home in your arms
 You promised me...
 You promised me you'd never break your promises
 With all these broken promises I should leave , but I keep quiet and still believe you
Now Im just another broken piece, like all the promises you swore to keep
