Hungry for depth
thirsty for life,
absorbing the universe
one pore at a time.
Needing the truth
but knowing nothing
absolute.
Feelings for a feeling
not a body
nor a being,
just a rush
when tongues
may speak
may touch,
but tangle
when one lover lusts
and the other trusts..

Speak with no meaning,
listen with no hearing,
good at what you do
no feeling.
Express so much less
than I'm needing,
say goodbye,say goodbye
you don't need this
nor do I.
It's all just wasted
Time.

Slivers of thought
glimmers of dreams
combined
this puzzle is still incomplete.
Fogged up
hazy eyes
see,but don't recognize
what's good for me
love of lust
adventure over trust
it's my misconception,
eat,sleep,breathe it I must.

I can't let these thoughts
overwhelm me.
I can't let you back inside
but it seems the more I try
the more I fail
to rid you from my life.
I want that part of me to die
so that I might blossom
one day soon
and out of the ashes of our once love,
I seek a truer love to bloom.

I am the damsel
and you are my white knight
these woods are pitch black
except for the moon's beam
and the dancing of our flashlights.

It seems as if for hours
we've been searching,
maybe even years
but you and I are finally here
and we are running...

Until we find a place to collapse,
here in the dark
and I think that place
is here in your arms.

Our fingers are buried deep in the moss,
our toes dangle in the reflection of stars
and if we try,
our lips could ignite,
sending sparks up into the sky
floating like little fireflies.

If things were different
would I have learned,
what I needed
what I wanted,
could I have discerned
what is right for me
is this the life I want to lead?
Or should I try to be,
everything, and all that I am
not according to him
not according to anyone
but my own heart,
because I know now
what I am worth.
I feel like a fallen angel
with a broken wing,
I may not be able to speak now,
but one day I will sing
and I am taking in this world
with a new pair of eyes,
ones that haven't seen pain,
ones that haven't cried
and I am feeling this earth
with a new soul inside,
abused no more
but vindicated and alive.
And when I smile,
it will be for no one else
and everyone will see
beauty in a girl
who always hid it underneath.
It's going to be a wild time,
and a free spirit.
One day I will make an entrance
and everyone will hear it.
Everyone will know I have got heart
and I have got soul
because this new drummer I'm marching to
is playing the beat of rock n' roll.
It's so freeing,
you may see a fallen angel now,
but sure enough
one day I will sing.

I thought it was written in the stars,
but down they fell,
while I wasn't looking.
Get ready for impact
because there is no looking back
when they crash.

Sadly I don't have what it takes,
and I haven't got the time
to make these pieces
sparkle and shine
because no matter what I do,
they won't hang the same way
and I don't like impostors.

And please forgive me,
but I don't want to look up and see
our broken memories
hanging over my head
and I don't want to walk around
afraid they might once again,
tumble down
and destroy the new life I've built without you.

So if you don't mind,
I will take the pieces out to sea
throw them overboard
and watch them sink.
Because I can't afford,
to see your face anymore
I won't let myself be afraid
to face a new day
without you.
