I left you for a reason.
I was done feeding on your lies
And heeding to your calls.
I tried to change for you but,
I just spiraled and nearly landed in the churchyard.

I am a better person now
Since I left you
So leave me alone!
I don't want to see your phantom
Anymore.

"Shut up heart!
I can not hear my brain over you."
I have learned to never trust my heart
Because last time it got ripped out and thrown on the floor.

"Heart why can you never learn?
You are just going to get hurt like last time."

"I would rather get hurt than to never live..."

Sorry, guys, my heart is delusional so I am putting it on mute.

I was given a single rose
For some special occasion
A day of hearts and jubilation
It does not say who it is from alas
But that means someone must love me
For who I am!

Thank you to my admirer
For loving me
And if I knew you I am
Sure you would say the same!

I remember my innocent
Childhood like it was yesterday.
It is to bad that I can not relive just
One day.

Maybe the day
I lost my first tooth.
Or the day my sister was born.
Actual none of those are right.

I would go back to
The day that I first fell in love with you.
I would tell my younger self,
" See him over there? He is going to be the world to you."

The moon is a babbling brook
Near the quaint town.
The moon is a lonely mariachi
Singing his sad songs with his guitar.

The moon is a silver dollar in  
The pocket of an elderly woman.
The moon is a lake where
Her body was found.

The moon is a stolen item that
Ended up in the mariachis pocket.
The moon is that same silver dollar
But covered in blood.

Maybe we are meant to acknowledge
The darkness.

If we ignore it
Then we will never see
The light shining through.

I harnessed my courage
And kicked those hunters
Were the sun doesn't shine.
