Love destroys us all.
And if not, it's not love.

Atop the mushroom
who knows from where
a leaf!

I    miss   you
Is not enough

No words are
For the way I feel
Of you

I don't sleep
I can't sleep

I'm cold...freezing
e

      n
Though my room
Is a blazing sun

And my window panes
Are pelted by the storm

Much like my tears do
To my cheeks

No
I am COLD
Because I am missing my second skin

The way you wrap yourself
Around me and within me
Completely absorbing me

Breathing you in
Until I am High
On you

Trying desperately
To remember
Your scent

As I live
Miles....Miles......Miles....
Away

Remembering Your
Warmth

Until Our Love
No longer has to be kept
At Bay

I promised to love you
I promised I swear,
But sometimes those're broken.

Just as broken as my heart
On the very night that you broke your word.
I hate to remind you about it

I hate reminding myself too.
The thing is, I did love you
Despite all the pain.

I've learned to forget,
But I haven't learned to forgive
Even though you apologized

With your amazing, angelic voice
I'd cringe at the thought
Because no amount of anything

Could cure this feeling
Because I don't get over some things
But I'm trying to get over you.

It's never been said out loud.
It's more of a mutual understanding
hanging heavy in the air
I don't want pity, I need clarity
Yes or No.
I cringe at the wait
Will you love me forever or let me go?

you’ve lost that twinkle in your eye
your hair has dulled to gray
your hands are gnarled and cracked and dry
your memory slowly fades.

you’ll never get to hold her hand
you’ll never see her smile
her life on earth has just began

while yours has just  a sweet short while

how I wish there was a way
that you could somehow feel
the love inside this little girl
whose name you’ll never know
