Let me go. I know I don't want

You to, but its best for both of us.

Never forget me, never forget my love.

Never forget our time.

Rae

Wicked protagonist

She wore her strength on her sleeves
in the form of intricate tattoos,
to her all that matters is what she believes
and she'll conquer the world in her black shoes.

Her hair was dark, reaching her waist
and her eyes were the best of jade,
her examinations she all aced
her mind being as sharp as a blade.

Named after a ruthless killer
but with a heart made of gold,
she doesn't mind a thriller
her story will be told.

In a world full of magic
and light and darkness,
her story ends in tragic
but she was never heartless.

- as her story came to a close she realised she was the villain all along. -

Dear M,

Dear M,

I know I've said it before,

But I will say it again,

That every second of my life spent with
you

Would still not be enough time spent

In your presence.

Now

Babe if I asked you then
Where you saw us in four years,
Would you be satisfied
With where we are now?

Chlorine

Down
Down
  Down

    I taste chlorine.
     I taste you and me,
      I taste the sea.

       I taste the cold,
        As it runs through my veins,
         And the blackness comes to take me away.

           I love the way it fills me,
            No more pain and no more agony.
             No more crying and no more dreaming,

               My eyes close for the last time as these chemicals take me away,

                         And
                                   I
                                       Drown.

Embrace Them

People often ask me
How I ward off my demons,
And I can never answer them.
It so happens the truth is that
I don't ward them off
When it is just easier
To embrace them.

...But I Didn't

...But I Didn't

I wanted to write a poem
But I became so exasperated at the fact that
I could not find the words.
I became frustrated and deleted every word I wrote,
Only to find myself here,
Writing what you are reading now.

Never Will I

Never Will I

I may soon forget the name and the face,
I may even forget the existence,
But I will never,
I can never,
Forget the stormy-blue sky
That resides in your eyes.
