I find myself*
drifting, day by day
falling in love
with empty souls, one after another.

I stand and stare
I watch them pass me by.
Their ice
just as cold as mine.

I know they see me
they see the pain
they see the emptiness, they know it all too well.
They crave the things they cannot have
they fall in love with the illusion
that two empty beings
can coexist
*and create love.

It rained tonight.
Did you know that it reminded me of you?
The sound of each drop hitting the pavement.
A simple reminder of the day I first saw your face
And the sweet "hello" I'll always remember.

It rained tonight.
The smell of wet pavement filled my room
And I could almost hear our footsteps in tandem
Walking through the winding city.

It rained tonight.
The concrete must've been cold
Like the pavement we sat on by the lake*
Where we watched the water bob and weave.
Where we smoked our cigarettes and just stared out.


*It rained tonight -
And hope it never stops.
I had to just write down how I felt.

The moon
Was in your eyes
The entire time.

It hid behind
Two dark pupils
And a gaze
That said
I'm sorry,
For what I'm about to do.

you held galaxies in your hands.
blades cut on your thigh and you bled stars.
the beating of your heart sounded a lot like the birth of planets.
and you kissed the world goodbye, giving me only the moon to remember you by.

you were the fabric of time and I swear when she left I could feel you ripple.
the tips of your fingers felt as hot as the sun.
the stares were as blinding as a solar eclipse.
and you kissed the world goodbye, giving me only the moon to remember you by.

I still remember the moon.
this is the first and only time I will ever write about him. he's still orbiting, he'll never come back down.

Up until my insomnia meets me
I lied when I said I forgot
I was scared what you'd think
If I said that  I love you a lot

People have only cared for minutes
Leaving me to care for days
When I look at you all I can think
Is please don't go away

I can see me in your eyes
I dream of dreaming with you
I can trace your scars with mine
My thoughts are bleeding through:

My Talia, I know what it's like to not be seen;
what it's like to be alone in a crowded room.
For you, my star, I want you to know:
that no one shines as bright as you.

I can taste you moving on my skin.
My gasp is air you sustain.
hand in hand, under an umbrella
with you, I am safe.

His fingers glide down me as if he knows my body like it's his,
I bet he knows that just his touch alone sends chills down my spine.
I try to concentrate on his pink tainted hands but my focus lingers to his pale lips kissing my neck with his naughty hands on my hips tickeling me as he guides my body along his, and the music. He knows i'm his now, he has me in the palm of his hands and before I can tell him, he trails his lips to my ear and whispers " Babydoll, you'll never find someone who loves you, not even me"
