I'm not what you need
only what you can use
Long conversations within the night
Touches with passionate kisses
Acceptive of your differences
Playing innocent
The easiest for you
I'm not what you what you want
Only what you're borrowing from the next
Pieces of lost happiness channeling your mind
Tight hugs that tell you a story of what shouldn't be lost
Long walks on the beach to make time go by quicker
I'm never going to be what you need
No sense in lying within a bed of lies to wake up
Convincing yourself that just maybe...ONE DAY....
ONE DAY
He can be the one to fill the empty space
I'm not what you're seeking or speaking of
Sorry
I'll play dumb for myself not you

By: Leory Santana Dawn

My shedded tears cover the earth
coating its green wonders in water
ice,
a word representing demons

ice
like your stare
crystal blue eyes
penetrate my soul
digging deep
reaching in
grabbing what's left of me
in your clenched fist

Ice
cold,
Sliding away
with my heart

I took your word like scripture.

I remember you once said,
“If you mess with the bull, you get the horns.”

If you had just peeked around the corner,
you would have seen me in the next room
with a kitchen knife, preparing for the day

I wanted to make you see red.

I push
and
I push
until I get what I want.
To be free
of feelings that
surround me
is only dreams
far, far away.
So listen
to what I say and
when I finally hit the spot,
you give me what I want.
A lash here,
a lash there.
No drug could compare.
These are the feelings
I don't want to fade.
They fill me up
with the knowledge
I already know.
Give me those words,
show yourself.
I don't lie
like that anymore,
but it'd be a lie
if I said that
I meant those things.
There's no
buying into it with you.
You just say the
things you feel.
