"Our relations
with those
around us are
like trees;

We can water them,
or let them dry out.

Just remember
our lungs
needs forests
to breathe."

"Find someone who
will hang messages
detailing your beauty
from the stars,

and form constellations
greater than any
one of your scars."

"Lovers dismantle us;
     they pull
     the threads
     of our soul,
     taking apart
     our existence
     and exploring
     us whole.

Lovers wreck us;
     they know
     how to assemble
     us once more,
     but walk away
     and leave us
     in pieces
     on the floor.

'Love you'
     they swore."

"The trouble is--

hearts don't lie,
but minds do

and I don't know
which one I spoke to."

"We're at scene six
where you and I
act like it never
meant anything,

and scene seven
will see us teaching
our hearts how to
understand fiction."
