I wiped the slate clean
No strings
No attachments

I don’t need those things
Xyns Apr 2018
Oh, we had it all
Bridges burnt
In love, ready to fall
Alienated,
But still together
We made it

Soul mates, you said
Forever, you said
"It's better to have loved and lost"
Well, I disagree
I'd rather have
Never loved at all


Liar, Liar, Liar
You're a *******
*******
I hope that one day
Cancer
Is what you get

You're weak
Pathetic
A child, really
"I feel like a man"
Really?
I don't understand

A man could work
He could try
He'd hang in there
When things weren't right
But you couldn't
You're no man

You're a sad little boy
With a little **** complex
Maybe that's for good reason
It's not like you were
Any good at pleasing
Hehe I know, I shouldn't have..

Snort a little diction

Smoke a little rhythm

Inhale a little alliteration

Inject a little rhetoric


Let's All Get
Strung Out On
**Word Crack

What were the words you told me
That first made me want to be with you?
You said "I know you've been hurt
But, Autumn, I've been hurt too.."

only space
a blank place
withheld from grace
simply replaced

It makes me sick to my stomach
How I play your laugh on loop in my head

My artist has kicked the bucket
All grey dances with the devil..
the colors are dead

Serums and cocktails to ease my stomach
I'm sober but I'd rather be blank instead

You know I hate it-
Try as I might,
It seems useless-
A losing fight...

..to erase you from my thoughts
I need guidance - an emotional GPS
I'm hopelessly, tragically lost..

Pale - you numb me like snow
You're colder than the ice that used to sit in my soul
Frail - this must be sick with a cold
I think I see the devil, dear;
I thought you should know

And, as much as I hate it,
Try as  I might;
I can see it's useless-
A losing fight..

..letting go while holding on to Jack Frost
Lasts a lifetime and I need rest
This has all come at too high a cost..

Blame - neglect may be all that I know
Flaunt your fears; they make for a show
Creep - such a dreadful process must be slow
To find trophies in the scar tissue;
From the wounds, marvels may grow..

Still, I hate it-
Try as I might;
It's always been useless-
A losing fight..

..because you keep a place in my mind
And keep my chest filled with ice
Even after all this **** time..
