I’m dying of starvation
For the love that I crave,
And the soul
That’s no longer mine

They say “eyes are the windows
To the soul”
And yours, my love,
Are made of stardust

In another life,
You’ll come home to me.
But for now I’ll just have
To miss you
In this one

And as I stand
Alone
In the dead of night
I will whisper
The immortal words
“I love you”
And hope a shooting star
Catches them on its way by
And brings them
To you.

I feel so broken
And alone.
My lungs are on fire,
The home you built inside my heart
Set ablaze
And my love for you crashes over me
Like waves.
Cold as they move through the space
In my chest that you once occupied.
And though strong and unforgiving,
Still unable to salvage the burning home.
And I am alone in the dark
Waiting for it
To consume me

The water rushes over her feet
And carries her away
On this dark
And stormy day
And her friends
They scream and shout and cry
As she tells
The world goodbye

And when your demons
Are stealing the air from your lungs
I will put my lips to yours
And breathe life
Back into you

I can distract myself
Long enough
To forget how much I love you
Until it’s 2 AM
And my restless thoughts
Echo your name.

I yearn for the warmth I felt
When I looked into your eyes
And for the strength I felt
In the fortress of your arms
And I search for the colors of the universe
That disappeared when you left

In you I found myself
And in you I lost myself

As I stand,
Staring out at the edge of forever,
Death approaches
Welcoming me home
With open arms
To a bed of eternal ease
And weightlessness.
All that’s left to do
Is let go

My scars run deep.
Memories of pain etched
Where the metal kisses skin.
Even though the pain
Doesn’t seep,
The guilt flows heavy
With the red waves
And shame wraps it’s arms
Around me like a blanket
As I stand gripping the scissors
Willing the world to just
Stop

She was an entire universe
In a single soul
But all he saw
Was a planet

The hardest part
Of letting you go
Is the fear that
I’ll lose myself too.

The rain is falling
And now I am falling too
All I want is you

The moon whispers stories of the stars
And I tell him tales of you,
The boy who stole my heart
And parted the clouds
To see the sun.

As I look at you
I fall in love with all of the things
I feared about my future
And for the first time,
I fell in love with the idea
Of getting there.

He was the kind of dream you fell into
And here I am
Wrestling many sleepless nights

My body feels
So hollow.
I never knew how heavy
Emptiness could be.

Like the summer rain, we fell.

Let **** go,
You can't see the world
If you're carrying it on your shoulders

I put my hand on my chest
Where my heart used to beat
The drum that it played
So soft and so sweet
Now it’s lefty empty
So hollow and cold
Just whispers of memories
Of the stories once told
The foundation is crumbling
The walls starting to crack
So I’ll just close my eyes
And let the world fade to black

The world has gone dark
No light to be seen
The best moments of life
Fade fast from the screen
The pain isn’t real
It’s all in my head
My body is living
But I’m already dead

Tell me,
Was my love not enough?
No, of course it was enough,
I loved you with everything I had.
You were just to blind to see it.
And now as your world keeps spinning on
Il be stuck standing still
Waiting for you to come unfreeze me

You beat my heart to dust
Then used it too make a wish
For the heart of another girl.

What happened to the little girl
The one who dreamed of fairytales
What happened to the little girl
Who played make believe
Who wanted to grow up to be an
Astronaut?
What happened to the little girl
Who thought the world to be a magical place
Who dreamed of reaching the stars and keeping
Them in a jar to light her way
Who dreamed of prince charming on white horses
Well she now lies in bed with tears streaming down her face
Begging to die.
She now paints pictures on her skin with a metal paintbrush
She's more broken than she is beautiful.
She no longer dreams of stars and fairytales
Now her only happily ever after is

Death

The worst part about it all
Is that it stings in the shower,
And I'm so sorry, if you're
One of the poor unfortunate souls
Who knows exactly what I'm
Talking about

I knew he didn't love me
But I adored him anyway
And even though my heart was screaming
I just couldn't stay away

I don't think my lungs like the taste of air anymore.

Maybe one day I can stop simply dreaming of happiness
and find it for myself.

Anyone else feel like they're
dreaming their lives away?

Anyone else sick of sleepwalking
through every day?

Maybe we were meant to fall together
Maybe we were doomed to fall apart.

Don't forget who you were
Before the world tore you apart.

Don't forget who you were,
Before the world told you
who you should be

In you I lost myself,
In you I found myself

His soul was as colourful as a rainbow
And I,
I,
Am black and white
With a little bit of grey

Without you
I can be me.
Without you
I can breathe.

You are the perfect song
I've never known how to write
And the melody
I have always been searching for.

If I could go back
I would

They say that sometimes
The people who build you up
Are the ones to tear you down,
And the saddest part is,
No one realises it until
It's too late.

Stupid girl,
A boy like him
Could never love a girl like me

People don't change
Their masks do

If only I could find the right words
To write the right poem.

Lately I've been sleepwalying through everyday
My life is black and white and I am dreaming in grey
Red letter day but I'm as blue as the sea
I'm falling fast, somoney please save me.

You shine brighter than all the stars that I've seen
Believe me when I say that you're lovely.

But I don't mind
I'll stay behind
with you.
While everyone's chasing the stars
Trying to find who they are
I'll stay here with you.

Somebody help me 'cause I cannot breathe
falling for you knocked the wind out of me.

Be careful
Some times it's hard to tell salt from sugar,
I have found,
People are like that too.

I think it's hard to give you up
For the same reason a drug addict keeps going back,
The high is amazing,
Regardless of how deadly it is.

As I saw you there,
Dancing with her,
I felt as if what was left of my heart
Was ripped out
And smashed into a thousand pieces.
