I never meant
To fall in love
I never meant
To fall in love
With you

But when you smiled
And called me beautiful
And told me
I was always on your mind
And that we would
Be forever until the end

How could I not?
Then I figured you
Out
You are a liar
You broke
Me
You broke the
Only me
I'd ever
Have
I will be
The candle that lights your way
Not the wildfire
That ravages your world.

You must be
The hearth that brings me home
Save me from my secret self
Drawn to the danger of the flame.

you should be
dehydrating
from the
sun,

not
tears
wasted on
those
who have
ceased
to care
Will I ever know
As insects walk on water
Bliss, stillness of pond

Yasmine
I hadn’t heard of anorexia
Until they diagnosed her death

I hadn't seen true horror
Until her body was merely flesh

I hadn’t felt true pain
Until they laid her down to rest

I hadn't felt true loss
Until after she took her last breath

I wonder
If your eyes are twitching
If your chest is shaking
Heart rattling inside
With each breath
My skin gets tighter
My thoughts run faster
Faster and faster until
My mind is a track
Scarred from burned rubber
I wonder I wonder I wonder

Anna
She lends her pen,
to thoughts of him,
that flow from it,
in her solitary.

For she is his poet,
And he is her poetry.*

-Lang Leav
When words run dry,
he does not try,
nor do I.

We are on par.

He just is,
I just am
and we just are.

- Lang Leav
