Go gentle with me, it's my first time
No, I'm no ******
But with you, I'm straight from the vine
Caress me tender, but keep it rough
Don't break my heart, just scruff it up
Don't let my tears fall down like rain
Let them instead come out in blood from your veins
Don't let me sob into pillows breast
Let me die peacefully inside your chest
Be gentle with me and yet so strong
Keep trying to show me why we are wrong
#gentle #wrong #no
Write a man a poem he will feel appreciated and flattered
Write a boy a poem and he will shut you down and leave you tattered
Tell a man you love him, he'll say it back with truth
Tell a boy you love him, he'll use it as a gateway to rip off your clothes
Show a man affection, He'll respect you forever
Show a boy affection and to him it will never matter
Spend your money on a man, oh wait a man doesn't want you to do that
However a boy will strip you of everything you've ever had
The difference between a man and a boy is a great one indeed
A man will cherish you forever
While a boy will take what he wants and then leave

dear feet, I am sorry for dragging you around all this years
I am sorry that you never got the chance to feel the up and down motion known as a happy walk
dear legs, I am sorry for hurting you
I am sorry for leaving scars on your beautiful skin, I am sorry that I look at your marks of growth with disdain
dear hips, I am sorry for always squeezing you
I am sorry that when my pants are too small I still force you in
dear stomach, I am sorry for hating you
I am sorry for pinching and hiding you away
dear lungs, I am sorry for making your job harder
I am sorry to trying to poison you by standing too close to my uncle and his cigarettes
dear fingers, I am sorry for always scrubbing you too hard
I am sorry that I twist you all around when I am scare
dear hands, I am sorry for making you hurt me
I am sorry for making you scar my arms and legs
dear arms, I am sorry for pinching the skin on you
I am sorry for being disappointed in the fact that my bone isn't replacing the skin
dear shoulders, I am sorry for keeping a weight on you
I am sorry that you have never relaxed
dear face, I am sorry for covering you up
I am sorry for not loving the freckles that make me, me
dear lips, I am sorry for making you bleed
I am sorry that I bite you until you bleed
dear hair, I am sorry for chopping you off every time you begin to grow
I am sorry that you can't be long because I am scared of new things
dear body, I am sorry
I am sorry I don't love you but I am trying
I am trying to love you
It’s not that she hates to be left alone
It’s that she hates to be forgotten

It’s not that she thinks she’s ugly
It’s that she thinks she will never be pretty enough

It’s not that she cares what people think about her
It’s that she cares about having enemies

It’s not that she’s afraid of love
It’s that she’s afraid she doesn’t know how to

It’s not that she never will be happy
It’s that she never was in the first place

It’s not that she wants to die
It’s that she wants it to end

It’s not that it’s you
It’s that she’s ****** up all on her own
the slightest smile
or gentlest squeeze
to look in those eyes
that make me weak in the knees

to taste that kiss
is worth the wait
will remain in this state forever
or as long as it takes

patient dreams assured
only a matter of time
for that small glance of forever
with no more goodbyes

will it ever be real
nobody knows
cannot see past my own desires
so i write letters to your ghost
That song you wrote
is still on replay mode
It used to make me special
to leave, you did cause you said shall.

I wish you didn't have to
though you said it is for me too
I never want you to leave
because to you I want to live.

The lines of that song,
oh what happened wrong
can't we just relive the lines
and grow together like vines.

I want to hear you sing that song you composed
as long as I live but why does everyone oppose?

You are all I've ever wanted
All I want to know
But my mind is so haunted
Love is all I want to show

You're all I could ever need
Because when I look into your eyes
I can feel my heart bleed
A little more of myself do I despise

I know that I'm a **** up
And that I can't take back what I've done
Know that I can buck up
Let me show you what I can become

No amount of words can undo the damage
No amount of apologies either
Because inside I'm a savage
But of true love you made me a believer

I wish that I could do for you
What you do for me
Because what I feel is true
But I don't know how to make you see

Please don't let the drunken creep
Destroy all we could attain
Without you I'm a broken heap
Irrational,barely sane

So please don't go & leave me here
Please don't give up please
I beg you baby because its what I fear
I beg you,I'll grovel on my knees
