Maybe I'll date him.
That guy who looks like
you.
Maybe when he laughs he'll get
those dimples just like
yours.
Maybe I'll get lucky and
he'll smell just like
you.

Maybe the way he will look at
me will be the same as
you.
Maybe even the cigarettes he smokes
will be the exact same as
yours.
Maybe I'll get lucky and
get to date another
you.

His eyes are different than yours though.
They're not brown like yours.
His hair doesn't fall just right like yours
either.

But maybe he'll be enough like you.
Maybe when I close my eyes I can pretend its you
again.
They'll all just be place holders for you anyway...
Maybe... I should just go to another Starbucks.

Spinning in circles
Breathing your scent
Warmed by your love.

You mean everything. Everything.
I will love you through anything. Anything.

My soul is yours and the canter of our union rises
We belong to each other
a thousands times over. Forever.

You please me, in everything.
I love you.

We are not the mistakes we’ve made.
We are the love we give each other.

We are not the problems that we face.
We are stronger together.

I try to be logical
I try to feel normal
I do everything I can to stop

but as the insanity takes hold I feel myself
      spiraling
            spiraling
                  in­to oblivion
Where I once met you

You were a salvation
but now I lay here
comatose on our floor

Once bathed in love
Once cemented by commitment

breaks

            spins

down

Barely breathing I wait
                              forever I'll wait

The cold runs through me, the beating slows to a stop.
                                          Stagnate.

Ill do anything for you
But move from this position

this. position.

Im here. Here until the end.

I couldn’t move if I tried. No one exists but you!
      broken.
            feeble.
                  I love you.

No one can move me, but you.

I can't stop seeing you
I wish I could look away…
Look anywhere but your face…
Anywhere but those deep brown eyes

The loneliness is surrounding my heart
Im drowning in despair while the tears
gather 'round my chin, pouring out
hot from my soul
A soul being torn into pieces
without its mate…

You were my constant addiction
My muse for all things of passion
You soothed my nerves.
We were each others drug
We destroyed one another completely

Now we are ghost to each other
Once soul mates…
Passionately loving the other with
the fiercest of intent
Now our ashes blow in the wind
Carrying us away for ever.

A cadence rises from your voice
like a melodic seduction.
Every word produced is
enveloped with fierce emotion.

You've risen to be my muse,
The silent surrender I enjoy from
your company grips my soul and
tangles my thoughts.

Never before had this void
been sated, satisfied with
a breathless rhythm.
Filled beyond a point of
submission.

For you muse, I invoke
complete consent, please use
me with caution, and torment me
with my addiction.

You were an angel, so I burned
Your wings to the ground.
I turned you into something ugly,
Something I could relate into my self.

I scarred you because your flesh was bare.
I carved my initials in your soul;
So you'd never forget my destruction.
I didn't want someone so beautiful to exist.

I couldn't have loved someone so pure,
No one so flawless could have ever loved me.
You had to become damaged…
Because I was too broken for the both of us.

I wish I had left you beautiful though...
Left you with that glimmer in your eyes
The light I snuffed out
To test the limits of love.

I wish I had trusted
that the demons would be ugly
That an angle set ablaze
Would twist a soul malevolently

To ashes we will burn now,
Watching each other fall to pieces.

I wish that every day ended with you in my arms...
I wish that every second that we had to part
we'd think about only each other...

I wish that I was the only girl you could dream about
I wish that you would always be there for me
I with that I could always be there for you
I wish that you loved me like I love you
I wish all this because...

I know none of that can be true
I know that this is a fairy tale dream struggling for
Stability in a life where there are
no happy endings

No story is beautiful no day is perfect...
no innocents linger.
Nothing remains at the end of it all,
simply destruction but in spite
Of it all, wishes still remain,

hoping that someday it will all change
