Flaws, they burn our souls,
Yet, yours shine in my eyes.
Forever a fight to show;
You never believe what i feel.
I plead and concede my faults
While praising your ****-ups
Like they can't be wrong.
I know you are human,
And ****** like the rest,
And still your soul reflects
The good you ever do.

Oh, if you were mine,
Even for a moment,
Never would I care
That my heart is dead
And my soul, it cries,
For I had you
For a little at least.
Alas, you struggle to keep
Me away at all costs,
While you slowly want to give
A small chance, yet you can't.

So wait I shall do,
Until the world is grey and sad,
Until my tears are taken by Death.
For she is worth all I can give,
No matter the cost to me.
My soul,
It rushes warmly
To the frozen ground.
For the lack of tension,
At my wrist,
Releases me.

My brain,
It Seeps onto
The welcoming floor.
For the gaping hole,
At my crown,
Saves me.

Click, Flick.
Push, Pull.

My only refrain
From continuing this discourse
Is your essence,
Nothing more.
Little ones they run, forever young,
Avoiding the pain while strung
Upon their good times with glib tongues.

Confide, Relied, And Died.
Slip, Slide, Rip, Glide.

Never could they see my bleeding soul
That dripped the color charcoal,
Yet for me, there was no extol.

The light shone through those eyes
And what it does to me defies
All life has shown me it implies.

Confide, Relied, And Died.
Slip, Slide, Rip, Glide.

I fight the demon with these words
To ensure the avoidance of hazards
Of the knife, in hope of being lovebirds.

Sighed, Relied, And Guided.
Pried, Tried, Beside Her, I Flied.
I hack for her eyes.
I chop for her soul.
I rip for her radiant beauty.
Hack, slash, dig; it's my duty.
All is for her

As I raise my weapon high,
I think of nothing, but her.
Slaying in her name is a cinch
Yet for myself, it's a pinch.
All is for her

Monsters, they scare her so.
I tremble in fear,
but she gets me through.
To her, I am always true.
**All is for her
I struggle to be,
This happiness prescribed.
For my nature, you see,
Is depression inscribed.

Tied to my subconscious
Is this *******, hate.
My senselessness
Is deciding my fate.

The past, how it haunts,
Forever decaying my soul.
Ridiculing with taunts,
Preventing me from being whole.

Yet for all my words,
I never saw what to do.
I can always move forward
When I focus on you.
The hacking at your soul
Causes a deep, deep hole
That you can never fill.
You just wish, on your sill,
That the decision was made
And then there is no need of blade.
Why must your soul be riddled,
Mine in kind? Both just fiddled
With emotions all through life,
Causing our own pain and strife.
We never see inside
Only the other’s side.
We show all the flaws
That cause us to pause
Long enough to save each other;
Until one collapses and smothers
Out their light.
A smile,
That's all I ask.
I know you are sad
Because life is hard.

You are human,
And like me, fall in flaw.
Yet, your imperfections
Are your redemption
For without them,
I would never believe
You aren't an angel.

Yet, you are my angel.
You saved me from demons,
The kind that **** for fun,
The kind I lived like.

So give me that smile,
That smile, saving my soul,
That smile, forever a blessing.
If only your heart
Would join in a smile
Towards me,
Like mine does for you.
