Oh how my body aches
Sadness and hate filling what was once happiness and love
How living had become just breathing and only feeling anything around one person
And when that person cannot comfort me I am in a stage of limbo
Somewhere between lost and trying to be found
My heart begs for one man's comfort and love, tearing me apart when it is not there

I try my hardest to show my strong side to you, but don't you see the crack emerging from the other side?
Crumbling
Ivory Grace Jun 2015
You came to me in time of despair even though the way I was treating you wasn't fair.
You'd hold my hand and tell me I'd soon be fine, because I think you knew I wanted to die.
There would be days I'd seem a million miles away and begin to cry, or days I would be running around not acting one bit shy.
Regardless of the day, your actions would find a funny way to tell me you loved me everyday.
Due to my thoughts I wasn't sure what to believe, I guess I had to be taught.
I lived and I learned and soon the tables were turned.
Through a long painstaking process you taught me the unbelievable.
You opened my eyes to a life full of beauty and self-worth, and opened my heart to an irreplaceable, beautiful love.
I love you and everything you have taught me, I wouldn't trade any moment we have shared for the world.
You're my best friend and life wouldn't have such a complete feeling without you, and every emotion you make me feel.

She was a force of nature
Her blood ran as cold as a tundra
Her thoughts spun like a tornado
She was the reason hurricanes were named after people
She could leave you drenched and defeated like a tsunami
Her kisses were electrifying
God gave her the beauty of a spring flower
She was a natural disaster the news forgot to warn you about.
She was catastrophic

It still makes my heart crack when I read something you wrote for me.
I think of how easily the pencil glided across the paper as you wrote a book of love.
How you're words, oh so sweet, made me smile so bright.
Then hearing you say them made me feel like a child in a candy store, overwhelmed with excitement and paralyzed with happiness.
Now, I shake when I hold what used to be our love story.
The words in front of me engraved in my head with your voice, and the way you blushed while reading them to me.
So, I'm stuck with a memory reaching out for you, making the crack bigger.
When will it be that the crack is hit by a big enough earth quake that I will no longer have anything left to hold onto?

There was a day we sat and cried, and we couldn't understand peoples way.
You looked for an answer in me I did not know, asking me why.
And now honey, now that I'm without you, I know why.
