Steep walls all around
Slip and fall right to the ground
**** that hurt,  I'm bleeding again
One day I knew I'd regret losing you as a friend
But it was all your fault, **** an apology
Some bridges burn too fast for accountability
To be decided, but we both survived
Far from unscathed, we finally arrived
At this moment of silence for the lost love
Between our souls now drifting far above

I can't express the pain
The loss and hate within
And now everyone gives me ten cents
Like a poor man begging to pay rents
That are left from the apartment he couldn't afford to keep
So he's stuck on cold dirt as a bed for sleep
Everyone laughing at him in disbelief
At his ragged clothes, hair, and broken teeth

******* for judging where his life has gone
Everyone knows we are just societal pawns
Left thinking about our life so beloved
Frozen on the pavement unclean, unloved
Don't be so hasty to assume on your own
That your life can't share a similar tone
Cause that man could be me or you
Left by our friends and lovers too
Always showing your blue eyes the tortured path I take
Attempts to bring about a sense of urgency with higher stakes
Holding hands and stealing hearts
I wrap my arms around you and your broken parts
Your jagged edges cut me deep and pour me out
I hold you tighter, knowing without a doubt
That these demons you hold inside
Are forever based in mortal lies
And every night my thoughts sink lower
Trying each day to go out and show her
I'm not a bad guy trying to hold her back
I just love her more than beans are loved by Brak
But none of that matters anymore
Not a single thing touches her core
At least that's what she shows me
I can't figure out if we could be
Together for real this time
That's why I wrote this rhyme
To ask you how you dare feel
In this time when nothing seems real
Would you take the plunge for hope of a chance
One or more nights of true romance
Doth the Sun not shine upon our life through its many cycles around our home, this ground, we now stand knowingly upon? For ye, there must be many nights withstanding your weakened days. Yet, I see no darkening of the mind to spite these wicked themes of the universe casting clouds across thine only sky. Perhaps a better man, call the rainbow among your kin. I see not a beauty born from damp darkness surrounding. Nay. Thy beauty sprung not from storms ripping through thy soul. Beauty flows from far-reaching caverns over filled with life and truer passion than mine own heart may fathom. Lo, I drown within those seas upon thy face. Drag me to their depths and anchor mine heart among the shells and bones.
May thine favor ever be towards me and shall thee be blessed and loved as thou hast never known
I won't call
I won't cry
But you already know
That's a bold - faced lie
Your eyes bring me back
To the place I call home
Where everything can be fixed
Do you know what I mean
Can't you see the words are real
When my soul collapses at your touch
Love is the only certainty I feel
But I don't dare admit
Not a word can be breathed
Fear fills me overflowingly
Scared shitless on my own
For our fate dictates things
Beyond our control is the decision
That could **** me or give me wings

All these words can mean well but they can never say it plain
For all the things I want to express would paint me insane
Simple phrases could be the key
So I admit I truly love you
And deeply hope you do not flee
Knowingly filled to the brim
Tears crumpled within
Beneath the pain
You continue to swim
Onward towards the light
Shining deep down inside
That black circle of vision
Shows your future is bright
And nothing can drown you
In this tide of mayhem
Ripping through it all
While you stay true
You All Shine
Allyson
Some say our lives are meaningless piles of
useless actions to appease our horrendous society
I say this cannot be, for it should not be, and it will not be

But what do I know?                        
Only the valleys of red.                      
Formed on the hills of snow.                
From our rotting dead.                    .
