I'm sorry.
It hurts when you treat me like this.
I was wrong.
Will you wait for me?
I love you.
I'm afraid.
It's lonely.
I can't do this anymore.
You're so beautiful.
Goodbye.
*I miss you.

I hope that one day, we can overcome our fears of speaking our minds.

Dance with the devil

I taught myself to waltz
so I could dance with
the skeletons in your closet.
It's a gruesome sight
as we spin through the silence.
Silence broken only by whispers
of your secrets divulged to me.
And I learned that I was
dancing with the devil.

Insomnia

I can't sleep with
            The sound of your
                   h e a r t  b e a t
          in my
                   e

String Theory

It is my theory
that we are all connected.
From the thread around your finger
to the ribbon on her wrist
and the rope tightened on my neck.
Every action has a consequence,
because when you pull on the string;
*something unravels.

Strawberry boy

I met you that hot summer day
On the side of the road,
Selling produce in the middle of nowhere:
With that strawberry blonde hair
And those adorable freckles.

You were my strawberry boy.
I always loved the taste
but hated the fruit.
But I would but five thousand
Just to see you again.

Do over

Everyone deserves a second chance,*
so they say.
But i've made too many
unfixable mistakes.*
No more chances will save me.
