Dependent

You Wanted Flowers So Bad,
But You Forgot to Water Them.
They Cant Grow On Their Own
And Neither Can You

Myself
Shane Lease Oct 2024
Now the Water Flows so Effortlessly,
Like a Natural Spring.
My Eyes Become Wells as My Cheeks Turn to Streams, Slowly Drifting You Out of My Conscience.

The Disturbing Irony Tests My Temper That I Want Comfort From the One Who Hurt Me.

Then I Understood.

The most Loving Act She Could do, Was Letting Me Go. Hoping I Find Comfort in Myself.

Absence
Shane Lease Oct 2024
Like Untouched Water,
I Steadfast.
Like Nonviscous Lava,
You Fled Fast.
Time No Longer Holds Essence,
Because Your Love is No Longer a Presence.

Surface Tension

Will you be the tears between my eyelids?

Hold me together when the night wind hits?

Only Sandcastles can fight this..

Where is my water drop bridge?

Money Only Burns If We Set It On Fire
Don't Set Your Real Blessings Ablaze
In hopes they don't turn to ashes

New Hands
Shane Lease Jan 2
And now it seems like all of my hands are focused on someone new

From the clock to my palm

These hands are for you

I Look To Where You Used to Lay.
I Can Hear My Sheets Laughing.
Pillows Dont Hold My Tears Like they Used to.

Even My Bed Mocks Me,
That I Still Want You

Past Tense
Shane Lease Dec 2024
What was that?
Did it mean anything to you at all?
Of course it did.. you love me, right?

Im unsure
I know at one point you were everything.
I know that I loved you..

My Puppeteer
Shane Lease Oct 2024
Pull My Strings Til You Get What You Wanted.
I Hate to Tell You, But My Love is Haunted.

To You, I Will Give My All.
Until You Cut My Strings and Let me Fall.

And if Our Tragedy is Where Life Begins,
I'll Pick Up My Strings and Love Again.

Lost Love is No Burden too Heavy for Me to Hold.
As I've Done My Time Living in the Cold.

When Understanding
meets Love and Grace.
Then You,
My Puppeteer,
I Will Face.

One More Moment, One More Chance,
Pull My Strings and I Promise I'll Dance.

Give Me Time and Give Me Your Hands.
We'll Pull Each Others Strings to Find Romance.

And If I Cant Be Yours Forever,
I'll Cut My Strings on This Endeavor.

You Were Never Less and I Was Never Better.
You Were Blind and I was Never
Clever.

Now it Seems Oh So Clear
I Cannot Love You,
My Puppeteer.

You
Shane Lease Oct 2024
You
And Then I Realized,

   I Almost Forgot That I Missed You.

Time Slowly Being My Only Assurance,
That I Am Starting to Feel Better.

And Then I Realized,

   I Almost Forgot That I Missed You.

Memories and Moments Confuse my Acceptance as My Mind Clings to The Memory of Us.
Wondering When My Heart Will Rest and Quit Beating to The Sound of Your Voice.

Then I Realized,

   I Didnt Forget That I Missed You.

Relapse
Shane Lease Jan 16
I hate you for the memories I cant erase

The paper planes that hold our secrets landed on my conscience again

Im relapsing on the memory of
you

— The End —
