Melancholy spires through the clouds
Loneliness aroused
Seeing normality through furrowed brows
As we wonder how we got here
To this point of no return
With every word chosen
Someone's heart is broken
Reality is awoken
As sorrowed words are spoken

We Ache for something more
But what?
Who could say beyond the door
Of life that lies before us
At what point do we forsake trust?
At what point do we give in to lust,
Of people  places and things
Money, relationships?
It's all very tiring.


On our separate paths we chose to stray
Once together yesterday but today we're not the same
Estranged
With different eyes speculating now differing arrays
Our love on delay as we've ultimately arranged
With all the choices we have made.

Let me into the musty basement
Take me down there
I want to see every corner
I want to explore the haunted places of your mind
I want to explore the dark alleys of your heart
The corners of your mind where cobwebs have formed from never visiting

What I'm saying is

I want to follow you through the rabbit hole
Your soul I long to know
I wish to understand
Why you- like me
Go to these dark places

I want to know that I am not alone.

So peaceful tonight
Thinking clearer finally
I am not alone
#sober #support #peace

"the ninth planet from the sun"
Pluto was once classified
As something more than she was supposed to be
I remember being six years old
Intrigued and in awe learning about the nine planets.
In love.
... When Science changed her classification
my heart broke.

.You are my Pluto.

Madness in my head
Stop asking me these questions
I don't have answers

"Perfect Love casts out all fear"

So why am I afraid of you?

That leads me to one conclusion...
Our love is not perfect
Our love maybe even wasn't meant to be
Or maybe it was... but only for a time

So I could show you how to love the next one

Cause I'm not it for you
You never really LOVED me
Maybe you lusted for me and wanted me
And appreciated me
But it wasn't enough...

Because it was for you
And not for me

And my love for you was true.
Perfect Love.

But over time things changed
And I grew afraid
"Perfect Love casts out all fear"
But there was terror in my heart
You taught me to love you because I was afraid not to.

Why should I keep fighting?
Why should I keep endlessly treading these feelings- getting nowhere?
My muscles are weak
And I am tired
Can't I just let this water take me-
Down
            Down
                        Down
          ­                           Down
I'd like to feel the water filling my lungs
As the last of my air escapes me
Feel my muscles tense and release
As I finally let go
Finally relaxed
As I fade into blackness

How can I be drunk off my anxiety?
I don't even feel sober
Though I'm certain that I haven't drank
Why do I want to so bad?
