Never have roses
Smelled so bitter
Never has a blue jay
Had such a sad twitter

Never has the sun
Shone without light
Never have the stars
Been dull, not bright

Never has music
Been so silent
Never has a breeze
Been so violent

The world should be colorful
Every single day
But ever since you left
It is all shades of gray

i had the chance to kiss you
I know that if i did you would continue kissing me
we had the chance to kiss eachother
I know that it would be an amazing kiss
I'm dreaming about it last two months
I look in your lips all the time
I can just imagine their taste
I can just imagine how you're kissing me
And i had the chance to kiss you
But maybe i was afraid.

The lover’s wounded heart bleeds silently
From the invisible cut, that runs deep
Lacerated by the steely disdain of the lover
Her world revolved around him
Now, she is bereft of any world, but pain
Slowly, the maimed heart leaves her incapacitated*

I would call you a friend
but friends don't claw
at the back of your eyes
while you're asleep.
(b.r.o.)

my heart has been so hollow
since you ripped through it
i'm not sure which one to follow,
neither my heart nor my brain seem to fit.
you left me empty,
like a ******* hole
feelings used to be plenty
but now my soul is black as coal.
your lies made me heartless,
your games made me wiser
but the damage, i refuse to assess
for when i do, the feelings explode like a geyser.
when i think back to the good memories,
my eyes fill with tears
falling head first always seemed so scary,
but what happened with you confirmed my fears.
devoid and broken,
not sure how to get over you
alone and unspoken
somehow, i'll get through.

beware when you fall in love
with an artist
be it a painter, a singer, or poet

for the artist will
paint you
with strokes and hues
in shapes of every kind

sing about you
with heartbreak lyrics
and feelings which rhyme

write about you
with the simplest words
and a secret message she wants to say

beware of the artist,
and her love
one wrong move
and you're an artwork in her display
