The words
They're there on the tip of my tongue
I can taste them
I hear every syllable in my mind
Yet my voice has gone
Not a single vowel can escape my lips
At least my fingers work
They can write out all the little things
They help me feel more than my heart at times

They were one in the same
Always hand in hand
Each time he spoke
She followed his command
Layed up at night
Holding each other tight
Dreaming of a future so bright

Fighting every soul saying their love wasn't quite to their expectations
Behind ones back others tell them they can do better
As they told each other face to face the words saying
This is communications
Honesty at it's finest moments
The truth behind it holds love
Shows loyalty to special someone
Hold em close to heart to cherish
Under an arm to protect
In your mind to remember every moment away is a time well missed

Hurt people they hurt people and to those they see jealous of hurt equal two hearts run a stray from the poison of the world we fall into today
Because now it seems the worlds is wickedly behind eyes deceived by what truth is lie but what's to make it so its just to believe in it
I speak the truth when I struggle with reality because it's only what one makes it out to be as I follow a love's fantasy helplessly

I see with my heart
And view with my eyes
The beauty is a wonder the way some see light and dark yet without light it's forever darkness and it takes light to cast a shadow
A star needs the dark to shine so what am I but a human with a wanderers eyes
Curious I gaze upon those I love
Will they stay or go

Who's to judge will they say the worst or show me that the words hold worth to me
They say love is priceless but show it like a weapon speared me like it's a trident
I've built my walls high like a tyrant just to hide it

I wish his words were as sincere as the words in books
I wish they had meaning to them and weren't hollow
I wish I wasn't stupid enough to keep believing him
I wish I could erase the love I have for him
I wish I wasn't so addicted to his scent, his presence
I wish I was strong enough to walk away, to let go

I wrote this in Morse Code on purpose. It's a fairly short message if you take the time to decode it.

I don't think it's death that scares us.
I think it's the possibility of not being able to say goodbye,
The possibility of never seeing that person again,
Or the possibility of never hearing their voice.
We fear the unknown.
It's practically written into our DNA
And death..
It's the one thing no one can run from.
We never know how or when it will happen,
We don't know if we'll have any unfinished business when we pass,
And we don't know for certain if there's an afterlife.
It's that uncertainty that makes us so frightened
And it's knowing that one day will be our final.

There are a million different ways I could show you how I feel and yet, there is only one way I want to tell you. You make the world seem so small and make me feel great about myself. Your voice is so calming, it feels like home and my heart leaps every time I hear it. And gods, that smile you have.. It just makes all my problems melt away and sends a wave of joy over my entire body. Every little text I get or voice clip or even the pictures, I hold them all so dear to my heart. I hate not being able to reach out and touch you, to feel your lips pressed against my own and have my fingers in your hair. I don't think I'll be able to stop kissing you when we finally see each other. The thought makes me smile.. Then again, the thought of you in general leaves the biggest grin across my face. You're silly, kind, intelligent.. The list continues on for miles. I know it is far too soon for me to say the words to you but I have been feeling it for quite some time now. So I will be patient and wait until you are ready to say them too.

She stares into the mirror, numb.
All she sees is the imperfections.
Her body trembles as she runs her fingers along each stretch mark.
Tears stream down her cheeks, bluring her vision.
She falls to the floor, trying to hide her stomach so the fat doesn't show.
She wishes she could be the girl she once was.
She reaches for the knife off the counter and just clenches it in her hand.
Sobbing harder, she drops it knowing that she'll become stronger some day.
She gradually composes herself, rising to her feet.
She'll break this cycle one day.
It might not be soon but it will happen.
