Anything.
Anything at all.
I just want to end up with her.
I know her secrets, her issues, all the problems she thinks she has and knows she has.
I just see beauty in it.
I see beauty in her.
Beauty in her.
Her
Beauty

It’s the way both of us think the same way, and can talk ab ourselves or one another and feel at ease
The fact we can talk endlessly in our own world and time just continues to speed up, and that even when one or both of us is taken, it remains to be apparent to others there’s hearts around us and in our eyes
But they only resonate in secret, fearing the consequences of being found out
I’ll want you forever Lizie, and if you can ever find the strength, or the courage to trust me with a chance, I only need one, one more opportunity, I’m sorry I didn’t beg for you to stay before, I’ll regret it endlessly

It’s not always bright
there can be darkness
but it’s got a bit of sentimental value to it there’s joy to be caught
even in small amounts
For my Queen of Purple

I’ve changed my mind
Things are much different than I saw
And for some reason, against all odds
I’m back in the same spot, with different people

Except for one
One remains constant
One remains important
One remains special

The one, perchance?
Well it can’t be
Not only for the unopen circumstance
But the people around us don’t associate nicely
I’m not seen as built or mature
And you, well, can’t argue with that

Against all odds
We maintain the same situation
Across all possible barriers
The end seems to be inevitable
Wishing, hoping, and never ending

Quite ironic, isn’t it?
No matter how much we desire, or hope
No matter how many women I put between us
No matter how long you stay with him
We still find one another
And things fall apart again

But it’s always broken
It only fixed when you were here
Even though you really weren’t, and neither was I
Having us was special
And this time
I’d like to keep it like this
Even without hope
It’ll just have to be
Bestie,
Against all odds
Why can’t this end, why do I kind of want it to stay, how do I live knowing you think the same thoughts about what could’ve been, should it have??

Drifting
Waiting
Just for something to happen
But it never comes
I’m alone
I wait for my life to come back into my hands
But all it ever does is die
I don’t know how long I can do this
Fighting through pain
Stuck in an endless loop
I look for a way out
And I’m met with circles
Warping me back, forcing me to go through the same things
When did things get hard
When did time become something uncontrollable
And why do I have nothing to cling to, keeping me going

I need you,
I cry for you
I yell for you
I beg for you
But you don’t respond

I’ve waited for you
I’ve listened to you
I’ve worked with you
I’ve been with you
But you act as if we haven’t

It feels like yesterday,
When those blue eyes couldn’t part from mine
When those hands were mine to hold
When those lips spoke of love to only me

Now,
She says these words to someone else
She thinks this way about someone else
She gives those eyes to someone else

Yet here I am,
Feeling sparks whenever you’re near
Wondering if you feel them too
Reaching for your heart once more
Yearning the love we once had
The love I still hold within me

Answer me this,
Will you ever be mine?

Rippling,
Reflecting my reddish eyes,
The puddle grows with each passing tear
My eyes unfocus,
The shocking pain spreading across my body,
Bringing old memories of simpler times,
People lost along the path,
Including myself
Sinking to the ground,
My black tie floats on the puddle
I watch my one true friend drive past,
Knowing she’s crying in there,
And wishing I could be there for her
But all I am is one of those tears,
Dripping,
Splattering,
Splashing on the surface
But beneath,
Bonds are lost,
My life shattered with it
If only the shards were sharp enough to pierce my skull,
And not just my tortured heart
