You weren't as great
As I painted you out to be
Maybe I'm just a good artist.
Her voice held something, something so heavy for my ears
Her voice had that sound, the type of sound that makes you stutter in any way you could envision it

My heart was crippled, I was filled with bitterness
Resentment was tainted all over my tongue
My conscious was in the dark - in a tunnel where I couldn't hear it

But as she continued speaking - her voice had magic, it evoked the soldier in me
I fought for, because she kept me alive in a form of poetry

You see there's this chill I get when I picture her in the sight of my bed sleeping, her legs a mess, her hair flourish all over the many pillows I'll have set for her, her hands open with her fingers waiting for mine to collide with. she's perfect from the way her mouth moves to the way she utters the simplest of words,I can honestly say she is peace.  
                 My peace.
She groomed me and helped me become the man she one day look up to. I was broken down and she kneeled and put me back to get only now I am of her design which makes me better.

What a love she has, what a love she created. What a love, what a love she is.

Hazel eyes, stained with innocence,
Beauty of perfection, of imminence,
Bed of roses, fragrance of her neck,
His bones are always getting weak.

Beneath the pail moonlit night,
Flaming hearts, the only light,
Cold wind whispers words of love,
His arms, her warmth, a hug.

She stands in front of the mirror,
Cries a river of tears, in terror,
Eyes once stained with innocence,
Into imperfection, into imminence.
I have emotions
locked away in my journal.
Knowing when I die,
my ashes will fly,
but my written emotions
will be eternal.
I choose not to
let them free,
'cause I know if I do
they'll be on a
rampage.
You were leaving.
I begged.
You left.

You lied.
I believed.
Horribly I felt.

I suffered.
You didn't care.
You left,
not a single bye.

Confused.
Heartbroken.
Wondering why?

You thought.
He left.
You cried.

No love.
He played.
You tried.

Again?
Work it out?
No ******* way!

You ****** up.
Hope you understand.
Okay?

liquid red ruby spilled on her white canvas
a shining silver next to a blue wrist
purple marks on her ,telling her grey tales
yellow pills scattered across her pink bed sheet
they say she once had a colorful personality
you could see it in her death too, tragically ..

we were naked...
not just in the trivial fashion after ***,
or how our clothes formed a mosaic on my floor

we were naked...
not just in a way that i could see sweat beads glistening on her perfect body
or how the orange hue on her skin had become my horizon

we were naked..
the walls around my heart had just been shattered.
my definition of living had just been altered

we were naked..
our muscles promised us of a million aches to come the next morning
she smiled as i puff out two more smoke rings
i could see our future in that haze

we were naked..
yes naked, no facades or lies to cover our flaws
no bolts to  lock our secrets behind four walls

we were naked..
she was like sunlight coming through a broken glass in a winter day
beautiful, warm ,soothing and all those other romantic cliches

we were naked..
the morning she decided to leave
i had  gone too close to the broken glass to feel the sun rays
in the bliss of her  beauty
i didn't realize the warmth on my hand was the blood trickling down from my wrist.

she left me naked..
stripped me of my dreams and fantasies
stripped me of the walls that protected me
stripped me of the strength i found in my vulnerability
stripped of that touch which comforted me..

i want my fists to turn into my hands again
just so i can feel her for one last time.

i want my tears to stop flooding my eyes
so that i can see her clearly

i want this burn to leave my stomach
so that i can smile when i say good bye

i want to let go of this rage
so that i can hug and tell her i forgive her
