i want to be the rain
the rain that falls for miles
and lands on your gentle face
for just a split second

i want to be the sky
the sky that is always there
forming a soft, blue blanket
to keep you safe

i want to be the moon
the moon that watches over the night
and soaks up all of your lonely thoughts
with my subtle light

i want to be the sun
the sun that reminds you that each tomorrow
may not be a guarantee
but at least i am

I lose all sense of time and space;
suspended weightless i drift
towards you.
Always,
towards you,
never ceasing to desire your gentle hands,
one last time.
I hear your heart,
beckoning from somewhere I do not know;
but i do know that once I find you,
I will be
home.

Each morning leaves me gasping for air,
still choking on the blood from last night.
One day, I fear, people will know who I am.

They’ll gaze into my shattered looking glass and recoil!
Scared of what they see.

A broken image of a broken girl-
all that’s left of my broken soul-
then they’ll turn around and leave.

For what’s to love of a devil like me?
I’ll try to care, but I am not tender.
I try to reach your heart, but once in my grasp, I’ll tear it out.

For your sake, I suggest you leave.
Please
let me choke alone.

a thousand dreams dance through my mind tonight
a million words on the tip of my tongue
hundreds of tears shed that all of this
will always stay mine
i build walls
hoping they will come crashing down
but they never
do

I look into your kaleidoscope eyes  
And am taken aback by your beauty
I wait with bated breath
For something
Anything
To spark between us
Having already fallen for your bait
Now all that's left
Is to hope you fall for mine

Shrink me
Cut me into bite sized pieces
Anything to make me palatable
Make me who I am not
And then we can both move on
