She was beautiful, so blissfully ignorant to the turmoil in the world. She encapsulated all the beauty of the earth. Looking at her was like the first time experiencing what love was. The first sun rise, the first rose, the first ***** cat. Her clothes danced around her never really touching her; as if afraid the slightest brush against her tanned skin might alter it in some way. Nature knew.

It was then I realized I was drinking to fill the gaps between now and death, and I was smoking to make those gaps shorter, and I ****** for distraction, because living without you wasn't even living, it was just waiting.

I was a stepping stone
for the freedom of your trapped soul,
Nothing more
I was used, burnt to the ground,
My life is ash for the purpose of your rebirth.
I fought the world to be with you,
And battled myself and you along the way.
I drug you kicking and screaming to redemption
And my payment was death,
I am a cheap device, tossed away at your leisure.
Mind games are your tool, love is your weapon.
The crystal butterflies that once fluttered freely inside me
Were crushed by your hand
And only the shards of our love remain to torture and cut me,
And see me bleed.
I will bleed, on my knees with tears wetting the ground,
I will drain myself for you,
And you will move on
Floating on the clouds
I helped you reach

A journey through my thoughts
lasts eternally.
Dreams of breaking *******
and living to be free.
Analyzing freedom,
In hopes that it may come.
But we never can forget
where we all belong
I dont even...

In my mind a songbird sings
to keep me moving onwardly
in sifting through the rubble
of lost and broken dreams
onward, onward,
my little song bird sings.
Onwardly isnt a word apparently. I don't really care.

Because I can share my love with everyone else,
But myself
And this world has left me hanging,
By a belt.
We hear the voices screaming,
Crying for us,
Because obviously we are lost.
We got our boots but, they are knee high, and
The water we're sinking in is way over our heads
And we might be wet
But we can swim
And we swim.
Rough Draft mostly. I wrote it a week or two ago and just found it again.

desire personified

lusting eyes

brown with turquoise specs

but i haven't met you yet

in between the garden

and the fence

where i imagine our first kiss

sunny, shaken

stirred insides

imagination

I'm alive

— The End —
