The moments when I need you the most,
Are the ones that you never see.
The tears are silent as I tell you I'm alright,
My mind hushes the words that my heart desires to speak.

The sinister silence is my only companion,
No one is there to comfort me.
Alone in the dark, no peace in my empty world,
Salvation is the one I truly seek.

I stand as though I am strong,
The pain carefully hidden behind a mask.
You saw only what I allowed,
Then taken aback when the truth was spoken.

I laid myself open to you,
An unforeseen and immensely challenging task.
You took it for nothing and left me torn,
Now no knowledge remains of my emotions.

To hold on is painful and dangerous,
But to let go means going back on my word.
To stick by my promise, and stick by your side,
Will surely end with my broken heart.

Yet still I stay, I will give you all I have,
Until our hope becomes deterred.
I care enough to let it go,
As my heart is quietly ripped apart.

I move my hands across the skin of my wrist
It's soft, smooth; clear.
But it never used to be.
Over time, physical scars heal
Occasionally leaving behind some sort of mark.
A reminder of what was.
What used to be.
But there's nothing now.
It's as clean as it was,
Before the struggles,
Before the fight.
While the physical scars have faded,
The emotional ones never will.
Never given the chance to mend
So they won't.
As they burn deep,
It's a sad moment:
Reminders of life
Reminders of strength
Of relief
Now nonexistent.

I know some of the things i say are cheesy
I know i'm too romantic
I know you don't want my love
But **** i want to give it
I want to give it all to you
I believe it's what you deserve
To me you are the perfect girl
Your wrongs are always Right
Your flaws are your perfections
In every single way
You just continue to hurt me
But I love you anyways

She is a warm summers breeze on the back of my neck
She is the ****** of laughter echoing through the halls
She is the smell of rain just after it showers
She is a flower of the most exotic kind
She is silence in its best moments
She is art made from the finest hands
She is the color blue, rich and beautiful
She is the answer to the longing i have

I noticed her eyes for the first time today
They are the prefect shade of blue
