When your life gets dark
I will shine a light on the positive

When you feel empty
I will fill that void with laughter

When you feel weak
I will help you focus on your strengths

When you need guidance
I will help show you the way

When you are scared
I will be your protector

When you are down
I will be there to raise your spirits

When you are lost
I’ll be a compass to guide you

When you are sad
I’ll be your shoulder to cry on

No matter what life throws your way
I’ll be here anytime of day

How do I break the cycle
I cannot control my thoughts
I replay scenarios
like an unchained melody on loop
Future fears
Past mistakes
Haunt me like an empty house

I am not enough
(You are enough)

A power struggle
Between my inner demons
Right and wrong
Pain and happiness
A record skips
Replaying the same line
Over and over
My anxious mind is a prison
To which I’ve been given a life sentence

Excuse me as I stumble
Through my scattered thoughts
I am not very good at expressing love
My brain is cluttered
My sentences never form as I want
Let me show you with my lips instead
All the words on the tip of my tongue
Let me show you with my hands
All the love I have to give
My body can paint the picture for you
That my scattered brain cannot put into words

I can’t undo what has been done.
Cannot unsing a song that’s been sung.
The guilt I feel over this deception,
Clouded by lust from my exception.

I never thought I’d be the one insincere,
Until we met and you drew me near.
Though it was wrong, it felt so right.
I tried to say no, but I lost the fight.

How do I crawl back into my old bed,
When there is so much left unsaid?
I will forever carry the weight of this secret,
and force myself to keep it.

She longs for nights filled with sparks
lust and pleasure
Whiskey lips and naked kisses
Bodies close together

She Writes
When trying to mend our hearts,
We often search for “the one” who can fix it.
Ultimately finding “the one”
That leaves us more broken than before.

He reminded me how to breathe
By leaving me breathless
