I look in the direction I know you to be
Though I cannot see you
On the opposite shore of this sea

I lay looking at stars and wonder
Do you see them too
Or are clouds all you're under

In my mind, daily I call, I write
In reality I sit captive here
In the dark unable to fight

The wind tangles my hair in knots
When I go for a walk
Near the coast, skipping rocks

If I am still and listen long enough
The water speaks it's wisdom
Giving advice, voice smooth and rough

It begs me to walk across to you
Through a wild sea
Sinking into cold greys and blues

I heed the call, waves flooding overhead
Following the letters I never sent
And cry out from my sweat-soaked bed

You weren't the first
     "goodbye,

   you were tasting last nights


                                  afters..

But you filled me up,
           more than the meal

last night, I spat it out ill tasting..

                              But you taste much better..

I swallowed your offering  even though

               I'm on a diet...

But I'll swallow your meal
                 cos I never ate fully last night...

Tomorrow though I may want a different
                                          taste..

You never know, if I like you warmed
                up in the morning ,

they always

say something's taste better warmed up
                                       in the morning>

If not ill just discard you out the
backdoor saying I'll reorder you soon..

But throw away the list of maybes.
                cos the first made me gag
instead of swallowing..

aftertastes are a *****,
    but you were sweet..

But you never know till i wake up,
you tasted nice last night...

          I had alcohol

                                lets see what you taste like sober!!

I started having dreams
again, I hate dreams,
they are a mockery
of my reality.
But once I decide something,
as indecisive as I am, I
don't get derailed easily.
I suppose my dreams know
I'm hooked, and that's
why they've returned.
I wake up empty
because I hate fake, and
that's all the dreams are.
I open my eyes
and they water with longing,
as they're fueled by desire
that leaves me ever wanting
when I wake. People tell me
I should practice restraint, stop
wearing my heart on my sleeve.
They're right, I know.
I have a brutal habit of leaving
pain in my wake and with me
everywhere heartbreak I take.
I barely sleep as it is,
now I'm afraid to. I'm afraid
of the dreams
and what I want
because for two people
to want the same thing...
well that never quite happens
with me.

I've had my heart broken so many times,
I think maybe I just like to see myself hurt.
In response to a certain poem I read earlier.
- - -
Courting is way more romantic than dating. The only guy I've ever courted rather than date, I broke up with for terrible reasons a while back. One of the biggest mistakes of my life thus far. The only guy who ever truly loved me for all the right reasons. I'm sorry KB. I'm sorry I let her get to me, my little Bird. Happy Birthday, I'll always love you.

Crushing Love
We walked into my room as happy as could be
even though it's only been two days. You looked at me and said
"Baby, I love you."

I looked at you and said
"What did you say?"

"I said I love you"

"That's what I thought you said. Come with me."
Runs into bedroom
"Oh yea, just like I planned, *** on the second date."
He whispered to himself.

He walks into the bedroom and before he knows what hit him or in this case knows what "Stabbed" him, I stabbed him in the back and he fell to the floor with a thump.

*:Nice try *******, but I love you doesn't work on me.

Okay, you two. I want you to say sorry.
Now that she has said sorry, you have to say: That's okay.
There. Now it's all better.

**here is the problem with that, from a very young age, children are taught to simply SAY sorry, and not actually find remorse in themselves, they just say it whether they mean it or not, and they think there is no difference. The other problem: Even if you ARE sorry, not all things you do can be undone. Not everything IS "okay" now that you are sorry. Some things are unforgivable. It can't always be "all better".
just something from my childhood that my parents always had us say when there was a fight

Creep
Strong
Is the way you
Crawl through life's
barbed wires,
***** traps,
And barricades
And coming out still standing up after everything,
Still going.

Strong is withstanding
The harshest sand wind,
Letting the grains smother you,
Try to take you down,
But you still stand.

Strong is fighting for what is right,
Being able to know when you need to step in,
Realizing one's mistakes,
Fixing.
Not sure if I'm done with this... felt the need to write this for lukas. You are strong in this sense and I know you will stay strong.

We're all just suicidal kids
Telling other suicidal kids
That suicide is not the answer
