Use me like a canvas.
I prefer mostly blues and purples,
Smear those colors wherever you see fit.

Sharp palette knives, soft round brushes
Acrylic, watercolor, gouache, charcoal
Pick your medium.
I'm just your canvas baby, you call the shots
And I can't say no.

I want you to Hold me Here,
On the Westside

I want you to tell me I can Rise Above This,
I'm your Sunflower

You make sure there's No More Bad Days
Just Blinding Lights

And Time after Time,
I Can't Help Falling in Love

Skeletal structure
Glass body
Left shattered;
Tiny pieces

Melted wax
Flame still burning
Reoccurring pain;
Neverending

Red-hot lines
Carved in deeper
All my wishes;
Cold but clear

I could've done better
But at least I'm still here.

Skeletal structure
Glass body
Left shattered;
Tiny pieces

Melted wax
Flame still burning
Reoccurring pain;
Neverending

Red-hot blades
Sinking deeper
All my wishes;
Cold but clear

I could've done better
But at least I'm still here.

You tell me such sweet things
"Your beauty, your courage,
Your ways"

You mean every word that you say
Your love has no price
I'm obligated to pay

Teaching me to love again,
Through your words, your kindness
Your touch.

I'm grateful, you're gentle
I feel safe with you
I miss you so **** much…

I had a dream last night
You told me I was just way too much

I said I'm so very sorry
Please don't leave me to cry in the dust

I never meant to hurt you
I hate myself for ever telling you my story

You deserve so much better
Please don't let me fill your head with worries

Maybe it's for the best,
I'll let go of you and let you get some rest.

My words sometimes fail me

And all I can think is

I wish I could just

Hold you

We haven't always been friends

But here we are now

Thank you for growing so much.

Poke, poke
****
I'm over it.

Stick stick,
Stab
I'm done with it.

I'm not just
A pin cushion.

Dear sky above,

Please do not take her from me.
We have not always been so close,
But we are now.

Do not take her,
for she has come back from the wreckage of war,
Something I thought she may never do.


Dear ground below,
Please continue to support her,
Help her move forward.
You can't just
Swallow someone whole.

Do you remember, love
When we were told the story
Of how humans were once very different creatures?

Two sets of arms, two sets of legs,
Two sets of eyes…
Two hearts…

But one soul?


Do you remember, love
How the story goes,
How one day they were all split into twos
And spread far and wide, out into the world,
And how now all those halves are searching for each other,

To become whole once again?

And now here we are.

You couldn't possibly understand
The way I feel about you.

I have always wanted to be a mother,
you see.

I hope someday
My kid will be as bright as you.

As loving as you.
As caring as you.
As sweet as you.
