**** to the bone
inhibiting you is the “gospel”
you’ve only ever known & it’s been
preached down your pureness
now the moon is bleaker than ever
scars decorating your chest
& sin’s throned your shadow
how come your eyes are even turning blacker?
you’re distorted like the sheep they’ve lead
and the confession you attempt to shed
oh, how loaded and heavy
it trips over your vocal chords
“pray for me,
for you possess the sincerity to heaven’s doors”
entrust & I shall vow to you my open skull -
your bucket of absolution
which you'll feed on ..
the path of truth
till its final morsel — the void & bones
of a hunger-fed wolf

Aeternum vale

Is this goodbye?
Is this the end?
*Is this were the promise ends?

This is were I begin to cry myself to sleep again
This is were the nightmares come back
This is were my life can't go on

I lost the light that scared away the darkness
I pushed the knight in shining armor away
Telling him I can fight my own battles

But I can't

I am just as weak as they think
I am as stupid as they all believe
I am nothing and I just pushed you away

I let you walk away
I didn't even realize until it was too late
But I can't do this on my own
I won't even survive the night

I guess this is it
This is then end
The end of us
The end of everything
Because I made a silly mistake
Aeternum vale
My love, My friend, My everything

Leave Me Dead But Beautiful

Please take me away from my mind,
Let me leave everything behind
and shut every door to my heart,
freeze my soul like a work of art,
forever frozen and alone through time,
numb and dead but beautiful and sublime.

Little Girl, I've Ruined You

Little girl, what happened to you?
Little girl of chocolate milk
and dandelions

You were so free
Sure you cried easy,
but you laughed freely too

Little girl, what have I done to you?
Little girl of day dreams
and make-believe

Your heart was so big
Maybe it was bruised at times,
but it always bounced right back

Little girl, I'm so sorry
You would be so disappointed
to see what we've become

I lost you over time,
piece by piece,
like an old lego set

Out of broken glass
and cigarettes,
we became something new

It's hard to believe I was once you
That I was ever so pure
Now I'm what we never wanted to be

Little girl, I miss you
Little girl, I need help
Little girl, please come back

just edited because i realized i was a little redundant in this.

As quick as lighting

That's it?
You leave just like that
Quicker then lighting
You ran far away.

Am I too much to handle?
Am I too messed up?
Is my body to littered in scars for you too look at?

You promised you would never leave
And look at that
Your straight out the door
As **** gets tough

You swore you would stay
Not matter what
But look at us now
2 million miles apart
Because I was too much

If that's what you want

**** **** ****
I can't take this anymore
Even when you aren't here you hurt me
You're ghost that won't rest
A demon that can't be beaten

You're a reason I can't trust
Or love the way I used to
You aren't even here yet
you punish me for things I never did.

Yet today you appear
Out from the darkness
Despite my efforts to run and hide
You find me
You destroy me
You just want to see me cry
You want to see me dead!

Fine
If that's what you want
I'll do it

Sad Case

She Remembers

She lays awake at night listening to songs that remind her of you. Because you broke her, and she will always remember that.
