For now
Brielle Lachelle Mar 2015
And for now
We'll glide along

We'll ride the wind
And hum a song

But when the wind stops?
When the tune is done?
What will keep us up?
What if there's a storm?

Questions my love
Surround our lives
We're floating along
I hope we survive

When Comfort Calls
Brielle Lachelle Mar 2015
And then we talk
And I hear your voice...
"You're too much a part of me
I could never let you go"
"We have too many plans
Too many places to be shown"
My pulse relaxes
My heart beats even
I remember
And you know
We're in this for a reason

I want to scream at you
But when I look at you
I love you

Hello, i feel sick
Brielle Lachelle Mar 2015
You're going to do it again
And I can't stomach it

Where are you?
Please don't...
Please wait
Please don't

Please don't
We can't

Suddenly
Brielle Lachelle Mar 2015
And suddenly
In this moment
I wonder why

I've forgotten...
And I need you to remind me
Mar 2015 · 262
But it comforts me
Brielle Lachelle Mar 2015
She looks like she's in pain
But the image comforts me
Because through her skin
I can see myself hurting too

When I Think
Brielle Lachelle Mar 2015
Isn't it amazing
How your mind rules your body
So much so
That your simple thoughts
Can make you feel sick?
Don't be distant with me

A Story
Brielle Lachelle Mar 2015
I can hear you
and I'm sorry
This is all I have:

No words...
A girl sits
A boy stands.
Their eyes meet from across the vacant airport in the early morning.
They don't move
For just longer than a moment.
Then they both go
Back to each other
As their love always pulls them.
They hug.
She starts to cry.
She can feel his emotion through him
His language the same as hers.
"I guess you missed me" he attempts to playfully break the silence
Her response is the tears that roll down her face.
They pull apart,
He sees her face,
So they reembrace.
Deep breaths fill the air...
"I'm sorry" he whispers
"I know" she finishes
-----
When their eyes lock
They don't see anything else
They can't feel anything else
They see each other
And everything is.
-----
He feels awful when he sees her father
He hates himself for what he's done
But we all make mistakes
He never meant to hurt no one.
Her father smiles
He's happy to see him too
What is this maddness?!
We all wish we knew
-----
Guilt eats him alive
Even when he looks at her
Oh the sadness in his eyes...
As she hugs him he voices
"What was I thinking?" "I must be mad"
He promises it won't happen again
But how can she believe him?
He's broken that promise once before.

(Listen my friends,
it's the best part
The part you've been waiting for)


So why are they back?
How are they at it again?
Why's she putting herself through this?
-wonder her friends

She & Him both remember:

Love.
They're in love.
They're doing this for love

Because something greater
something stronger
is telling them
to be together
Is telling them to love
Is telling them to live
As a part each other
They'll never be done
They've only just begun

Just let them love
and let them live.
There will be mistakes
There may be secrets
But
There will always be love.
-----
--------
She didn't want to keep things from you
But she guessed this was obvious
She trusts you
With her life
You know that's a fact
She loves you endlessly
And that's that.
I love.

Why?
Brielle Lachelle Mar 2015
Why
  can't you see I'm there?
Why
  don't you answer me?

I wonder if you're busy
Answering her instead
Hmph

Relapse
Brielle Lachelle Mar 2015
Hand me back my crutches
my limp has returned

Nevermind about the flowers
my eyes will water them still

He's Like the Tide
Brielle Lachelle Mar 2015
Alas...
He resembles the tide.

Always receding
Faithfully returning
In a constant cycle
Forever ongoing.
I am the woman with her toes in the water.
My feet never move, but sometimes turn dry.

Are You Aware?
Brielle Lachelle Mar 2015
HA!
I've colored my hair
Perfect elegance
I promised I'd never ruin
But we all break
Promises, I mean

Would you like me to define
The word forever?
I'll frame it for you
So you constantly see

That you broke your promise...
Your promise to me

A Lonely Season
Brielle Lachelle Mar 2015
Spring doesn't feel right without you
You're supposed to be here too

Welcoming the grass back
Calling the cool air to our skin
Listening to the same trains hustle by
Seeing the same river run its course

You're supposed to be here too
And I'm supposed to be with you
Today the grass reminded me of you...

I Won't Stop
Brielle Lachelle Mar 2015
I won't stop writing of you
Because words are lasting
As lasting as our love
And the memory of our hug
This morning I lasted 3 minutes without thinking of you. A new personal best
Mar 2015 · 204
Why?
Brielle Lachelle Mar 2015
I JUST WANT TO TEXT YOU
I JUST WANT TO TELL YOU
THAT I MISS YOU
THAT I WANT YOU
THAT I CANT DO IT
BECAUSE I NEED YOU

I hate what I've become
I hate how much we loved
Because it ruined me
And I'll always love you
And I know you will too
SO WHY ARE WE DOING THIS?!
I haven't a clue
Mar 2015 · 237
Help, it hurts
Brielle Lachelle Mar 2015
I saw your picture
But it wasn't one of mine
You were smiling
Next to someone else's name

I've felt sick ever since
Mar 2015 · 1.1k
Goodnight my love
Brielle Lachelle Mar 2015
My hands smell like a frat house
I want to tell you goodnight
But I can't
I miss you
I love you
Sleep tight
Mar 2015 · 396
It is finished.
Brielle Lachelle Mar 2015
You won't be here in the morning
My tears will water the night
The people might think it's rain
But they'll be alright

We're taking a trip
We're testing the limits
Love is forever
And the sky...infinite

Take your time my sweet
Coming home
These mountains
   ...like my heart
Are your own

I love you forever
And you're lovin me now
But let's be still
As we take our last bow

Hey, I'm in love
And one day,
We'll Om Nashi Me
With no struggle at all
One day
We'll  play
Play and not call
What we know today
And tomorrow
And next fall
This is our first love,
Which we have given our all.
Mar 2015 · 274
BUT REALLY
Brielle Lachelle Mar 2015
But I won't tire of you
I'll always be here
I'll always love you
I'll always want you
I'll always choose you

We're real
And this *****

I'll pray for you if you pray for me

My Body
Brielle Lachelle Mar 2015
Reaching
Crying
Grasping
Pulling
Tugging
Gasping
Breaking
Falling­
   Back
   Away
   Out
   Somewhere

I remember you
As I hear this song
Brielle Lachelle Mar 2015
JMA:
I'm done limping
I've found a mirror
The snow will melt now
My dear, my dear

JGM:
My tears won't water
The flowers below
We'll have to find something else
To make them grow

ALL:
Thank you for the love
The support
The hugs
   Enough now, enough
  
*Women, I'll see you in the morning

Here
Brielle Lachelle Mar 2015
I can't read
Any words but my own
I don't want to follow
Any moves but my own
But I am numb
Numb all over
Because I hurt so much
But I can't feel it
Nothing at all
Just my clouded head
And aching stomach
My stinging eyes
Dry from the tears
My love, oh sweet love...
I'm thankful for our years

— The End —
