I am not for the meek
the weak
or the faint of heart

I am fire
And passion

Blazing trails of dust
in the faces of every man
that wronged me

And now I wake
Rise to the occasion
and let the sorrow in

Today is for the wicked
and tomorrow we sin

'i'm pretty'
the red words upon
my veined wrist
to him

I don't know about their kind
But I surely know mine.
I will start from the beginning
Leaving nothing behind .

Seeing me failing ,upsets him
But seeing me not trying, angers him
He doesn't want me to repeat his mistakes,
To see me succeed he is willing to do everything it takes.

He is not perfect
Not even close to it
Well parenting is tough isn't it ?

He has made some mistakes
But had pure intentions
It's his job to be strong and hide his emotions.

Well that's just it ,
His mistakes are neglected
His anger is deflected
Because his love is so purely reflected
To the best father in the world . I love my dad.

I put on all the makeup in my bag -  Liner, Mascara, lipstick, foundation.
Cake it all UP.
Layers on layers.
Until I am covered to the extent that I cannot find myself.
Because I like ME only
with my makeup on and I don't feel like the same person who I am after putting it all.

I heard you in the distance calling
   to your lover. I'm always so jealous.
   Call me. I'll be whatever you want.
   Silence so loud it breaks my heart.
   I've never heard silence like this.
   I hear silence only the dead hear.

You and I,
we floated upon
clouds of cotton candy,
felt the warmth
of the butterscotch sun,
and with eyes tightly closed,
we kissed each other
like wishful stars of sugar.

It's a crying shame
our parachutes failed to open...
