Hey this is your Baby Dino speaking loud and clear
Don't fear my dear what may be scary now, because soon your vision will clear
Wipe away those tears, I don't want to see them, I promised a great year
Remember New Years, I said I'd adhere to us and I was being sincere
If I'm unclear, close your eyes and reopen them, I'm still here
Unlike Houdini I will not disappear. So turn that frown upside down and replace it with cheer
Listen close as I whisper in your ear, we're in this together like two atoms that cohere
I know that I'm not as cute as others but steer cause your hands are on the shift gear and if I'm mistreated it will be severe
My heart races rapidly like an auctioneer and I don't want to interfere
We're aeronautical engineers concerned that our place might not be able to fly
The Wright brothers didn't give up on their first design
Patience. Wait in line at a decline but we will be fine
We may crash but our fingers will be intertwined always coming out on cloud nine
Our story has a crazy plot line and you're not the supporting role, climbing up the vine
I'll be on the front line to take the damage and don't shake your head at me because the bull is MY sign
I may be hot but bring out the red cape and I'll be hot headed leaving nothing left but the enemies chalk line
Bottom line is that I'll always have your back so you might as well recline
We say not to cross lines but in order to finish the race you have to get through it
The radical sign is in front of our problems so we need to get to the root of them this time
Apart we are two pieces but together a beautiful design

I am an artist of the soul
who seeps into tangible form
some vague representation
of my true self's expression.

the best feeling
if not a sinister one
is when you see an enemy
and you show them they cant hurt you:
you smile.

this simple movement of muscles
can rip into them deeper than any words.
they want you to hurt
and you appear to be doing fine.

ultimate revenge
the act of smiling is not only defiant
to show them they dont control you
but they cant do anything about it,
which is another advantage.

i dont know about you,
and this may seem evil,
but i smile when i know
that you are hurting

because all the times that i was hurting
you stood by and smiled too.
i guess thats the "circle of life, mate"
to put you in a quote.
now its my turn.

so i will smile,
when you tweet about me
because i really dont care! whereas you
seem to be caught up over me

and that alone is good revenge
but showing that i have no sadness
is even better
so heres to you :)

~E.Y.
parts are for different people. they know who they are, but will never read this.
Ripping up flowers
Tearing off petals
Shooting down stars
Watching them fall
Snatching up broken dreams
Burying them all

Six feet under
I hope my tears
Drown out the sound
Echoing in your ears
Of screaming and pleading
For all these years

Overgrown weeds
And heavy grey clouds
Even shadows have shadows
Guess everyone has a past

Threw my penny into the well
Well, I guess that didn’t end up too well.
It’s like you were Jack and I was Jill
But it wasn’t Jill who took the spill

It was jack who fell
Under the spell
Of that little girl Jill
Who had the best will

And intentions
Full of questions
Bright eyed
And engaging
Optimistically waiting

For the right guy
To happen on by
Well once she met Jack
She never looked back
And that was that
A fairytale ending

Except that wishing well
Went straight to hell
And that water was poisoned
That penny corroded

Exposing the truth
The ignorance of youth
You weren’t all you seemed
A wolf in sheep’s clothing
Bursting at the seams

The real you came through
But that’s old news

What’s worse is I stayed

Even though day after day
It all was the same
Routine
You think
I would have learned

But I didn’t
And you were only acquitted
When death finally admitted
You to its domain
I hope it rains
Every day
Over your **** grave

And that the most beautiful flowers
Grow just out of reach
Not visible between weeds

And that when the leaves change
And the snow falls
You’re left with nothing
Nothing at all
But the miserable company
Of what’s left of your “love” for me.

I never thought
I would've locked away a flower.

I never thought I would
Trap such a beautiful creature of nature.
The humongous red petals
Stained with water,
Attracting such a wide diversity of insects.

I had always believed that
Gorgeous things should be set free,
So it could live to it's fullest.
Spread out wide in the open.
And so,

I never thought
I would've locked away a flower.

Yet my marvelous mind encaged a
Beautiful beast,
An imperfectly perfect plant.
Locked it away for years and
Hid it so deep in captivity that
I could never have found it
And I would never have found it

Until now.

Years and years and years on,
Since the flower did first bloom,
It's scent has finally found me and
So did Understanding.

The pungent stench that
Reeked from the Rafflesia,
It slowly seeps into the present
Drowning the pretty world with
Pests meant to pollinate it's seed.
The truly gorgeous flowers slowly
Wilt away as

Evil
Ovethrows
Everything.

I once locked up a memory so tight
I never ever found it,
But in the recent days,
It came slowly
Then like a tidal wave:
Crashed down on me.
The shame just filling my heart.
Killing the not even alive.

I never thought
I would've locked up a flower.

But now I wish I'd locked it back up.

You are the him that made me feel whole, made me feel broken, made me taste pure bliss and the metallic taste of blood in my mouth all at once. Who knew that a love like this could cause more than just blatant emotional disdain? Who knew that just three words could create a heavenly happiness and then, when two unexpected words join these congregations of letters, a dagger could so easily falls straight into your chest.

At first ' I '  staggers towards you, unsure of its place: it is but the acronym of your lover and your lonely fate. However, in a heart beat, 'don't' then follows: as if it were the lifting of a dagger soon to seal it all. 'Love' then comes next, piercing your soul and 'you' continues, making sure to break your heart. And after this stabbing, this shattering of passion, happiness and content, the word 'anymore' is cocked and shot straight through your head.

Just three small words, giving the meaning to most lives, when in addition to two, has the ability to twist the knife. Love is hard, love is pain, love is beautiful when you're the one to gain. But from what I've been showed and what I have felt: love is but only a word to cover the insecurities of the world.

It's funny how I wake up
Feeling nothing of what I'd felt before
It's like a different person
I'm sorry

If you were the sky
Then I'd be the sea
And when you shined bright
It would reflect in me.
When you're at rest
Then I am steady.
If you wanna get rough
I'm always ready.
Past closing at the bars
If you show me the stars
I'll open right up
And cast them out far.
And on the darkest night
If you won't shine a light.
Then I'm silent alongside you
Until you feel right.
We'll meet at the horizon
Where lovers will stare
And wonder with passion
Why they can't meet there.
And you'll share me a kiss
As bright as two suns.
When they meet in the middle
I'll know the days done.
And I can tell that's your way of saying to me.
Goodnight my love.
If you were the sky and I were the sea.
