He kisses her when she's fully clothed then sends her on her way He tells her that he loves her
when she's miles away

let us toast,
my dear,
to making it this far.

even with our tortured minds
and glazed eyes;
hell,
who would've guessed it?

//

it's a good thing you don't wear mascara in public.
then again,
maybe it doesn't really matter.
you only cry when you're alone.

and i'm sure you're more broken than you seem,
though you still manage to get up and
plaster a smile
onto your cold, blank face
each dreary morning.

//

i am not the poster child of happiness,
or wealth,
or intelligence.
(they don't know that, though.)

failure is in my veins,
mistakes written into my skin
with permanent marker --
the same one they use
to write all those A+s.

//

is it really faking
if we believe it, too?

bravo,
bravo,
look how good we've gotten --
believing our own
little
white
lies.

but little white lies
never hurt nobody.

//

right?
uh idk. thoughts?

Lunar
summer nights
fairy lights
women rights
skinny tights
we ended up with
lovers' fights

plain as day
you took away
a sunshine ray
left me with
no words to say

feelings fade
a girl's parade
to hold her head high
and hide the mess you made
Anchors And Arrows
Hidden Mute To Unspeakable Grace
A Glance Of Capture
A Breathless Adventure Of Pure Fright
Yet I Still Fly
Your Words From My Ink
Whispers From A Far In My Hands To Your Heart
Damaged Beauty
Buds Of A Sip From Forevers Tomorrow
Part 2
Stalk My Nights, As You Live By Sea,
Anchor You Down How Id Like To Be.
Stolen My Dreams By Day...Promise You,
Promise Me. Promise Ill Never Float Away...
