You didn't mean it,
You didn't mean the pain,
The agony caused by your actions.

You didn't mean it,
You didn't mean to hurt her.

You bullied and dehumanized,
Turned her...
Turned her into you,

A MONSTER!

She wept and cried,
You tortured and cursed.

You didn't mean it,
You didn't mean to hurt him.

You seduced and flirted,
Turned him into a lovesick fool.

He chased and romanced,
You left him heartbroken.

In the end,
Was anything true?

Were the sweet words,
Uttered by you lips,
True or false?

Tell me I got it wrong,
You did not mean to hurt,
You didn't mean to abuse,
You didn't mean to curse.

Tell me I got it wrong.

TELL ME, IT'S NOT TRUE!

Here we stand,
Hand in hand
With each breath we take,
We inhale the blades we made
But with you and only you
We both know it will be okay.
The ice in the air,
Like knives in our backs
Take us both to what we had
Whatever lurks in the smoke
Will only make us bitter cold.

Lunar
have you ever wondered
why   am   i   always
f  a  s  c  i  n  a  t  e  d
with the phenomena
of     a    red and rare
l u n a r   e c l i p s e?

with every time we meet,
i turn red;
but with every time we part,
i don't turn blue.

rare doesn't mean
"once in a lifetime."
it only means that
you'll always return,
no matter how long it takes.

and i believe that
someday
for sure
again:
*i'll see you.
aren't we all fascinated with the things, events, and people which come rare?
it makes us cherish them well.

A part of me wonders if we were possible
Another part was scared to guess
Today fate took its own turn
And lead my heart to rest
You were absolutely beautiful,
Perfect in every way
Nothing will ever compare to you
"I love you" is all I want to hear you say

We fit like an odd puzzle piece
It made sense yet something was wrong
But now we go our separate ways
Although we both knew we didn't have long
Your name rests heavily in my heart,
Its importance much more than real
Wherever you are in this unforgiving world,
With me all you have to do is feel
Whatever you go through,
As chaotic as it may seem
I will linger in the shadows and bless you when you dream

I will do anything I must,
Anything to make you feel special,
I promise I shall never let your soul rust
No matter where we are now
You mean the world to me
Nothing will bring me happiness like you did
I love you.
I need you.
I miss you.
But please,
Let my thoughts be.
