She breathes into me like fire.
She is the purest air.
Her lyrics flow like water.
She can move the earth

Sorry.

One pill wasn't enough.
You took 60.

One slice didn't do the trick.
You did 2.

One bottle didn't satisfy your thirst.
You drank 4.

There's nowhere for me to hide

I'm searching for home.
Dartmouth where have you gone?
I no longer can feel the subtle touch of her fingertips gliding up and down my arms.
Never again will I feel her warmth down my neck as she slowly breathes in a deep sleep.
I envy him who took her away.
Who didn't keep her.

What's so "good" about this Friday?
I woke up on the wrong side of my bed.
My hair curled up and draped over my shoulders.
The sun failed to do it's daily routine and say hello.
The rain under my feet.
Yeah, "good" Friday.

She warned me about you and I should have stayed away.
I never should have opened my big fat mouth.
Ugh now I can't keep away

He did what they all do and he finished my sentences.
He left me speechless once more.
Should I try to escape or do I stay?

I don't suppose you could lend me a hand?
My pen and my paper seem pretty bland.

L is for the way she Lied to me
O is for the One scar I bleed
V is Very Very exceptionally wrong for me
E is Even more pain than anyone can endure

Who's to say what's a trending poem?
No critic.
No person.
If it fits you then wear it.
Type it.
Become it.
This pen that bleeds.
Let that be what courses through your veins.
This paper which you can read.
Let that be your story.

We one day strive to be together.
We type and we Skype with promises of Forever.
I sang you a song and you laughed in my face.
Said you lied when you promised me Always...
