You don't say my name when we say goodnight anymore.

The first time around every day was magic and every word was love.
We were writing a story whose last page we already knew.
From the moment we met, we both knew we were doomed.
Yet we were fighting time and distance together, call by call, letter by letter, savoring every hour we did have together.

and we've tried to say goodbye hundreds of times
until the two months when it finally stuck
but somehow i always found my way back to the way you notice how i blink differently when i'm talking to you

And it's better this time because we're friends.
We talk everyday, even though you're miles away.
We laugh together and you hold me when it's hard, even though you're far.
But everything is different because we are no longer in love.
And it's okay, we're both probably happier this way.
Though it's the little things, that remind me of what almost was.
That remind me of the way we were almost meant to be.
Like the way you look at me.

But you don't love me, you closed that door.
I can tell, love, because you don't say my name when we say goodnight anymore.

When you said your last goodbye
Now who will take my side?
You took my soul and swept  it clean
I never thought you would be so mean
When you said your last goodbye

All I needed you took
You just lifted the rod and left the hook
Took my heart and left the pain
Only left cloudy days of rain
When you saidyour last goodbye

I crave your return
Only scared of what you torn
Forget the mess and come fly
Your the only preditor of my eagle eye
When you said your last goodbye
made of cloth, for bandages, curls.

ribbons as is the fashion now.



rags for bandages, cut finger, wrapped,

tied a knot.



rags rolled in the war, women who

lost their sons, their brothers, pinned.



the pins that did not mend.

rags of clothes worn in poverty,

and art.



remember the rag and bone man. some of you,

nothing wasted. i tie your gift.

effaced
some
    people
          throw
             around
                 words,
                      that
                          others
                               consider
                        ­             precious...
Words like "princess, darling, love, sweetheart", etc. i feel are meant to be for someone you love in a relationship way. Nowadays, everyone seems to consider everything cliche, but honestly they are precious.

Fictional people want to be equaled
Practice there happiness but I know what I'm in need of.
Do I gain the world and lose my soul?
Do I let let them in on a heaven note?
Angels sing and horns they blow
I'm to far out God bring me close!!
I'm fear God like wouldn't know still I have days where it dosent look like though..
All my silver and platnuim and Gold my idols my thoughts my actions I throw down if I can step back in to reality.
Step back in where you need me to be
I'm so alone when it comes to me.

He say he want to be my fictional boyfriend,
The other makes me feel like I'm poison
No joke but I'm steadily Joking
I tried I tried to tell him
I lied I lied and said it
This is soon to ended I should just walk away and forget it forget it there i go again!

Fiction words to get a pic
Real words I think your dead ...
I like your smile now ******* kiss
I don't think I'll be here again..
Cause miss love not happiness
When you get mad then don't talk to him I think it's for the best.
But I won't leave without you been giving a chance to come to reality..

I just wanna run to a place where I'm back where reality sets in.

She's ready to risk it all
Lay it on the line
Just needs a little help
From this bottle of wine

So here goes nothing
She walks into the bar
The wine is kicking
Feeling good so far

She sits on a stool
In the corner of the bar
Sees the good looking cowboy
Smoking a cigar

She felt her face getting flushed
She'd never seen a body so buff

He gave her a nod, she smiled back
She was sure she'd have a heart attack

Now what the Hell was she supposed to do
She caught his eyes
They were sparkling blue

He made his way toward her
Her face turned bright red
She wished she had stayed home
Safe in her bed

He walked right past her
To her disbelief
He was hugging another woman
What was she, a thief?

Did she make this romance all up in her head?
Another shot or two
Then go to back to bed

Alone again....
