if there was one thing i could always talk about,
it would be his eyes.
the way the edges of them crinkle when i tease or joke with him;
makes me melt with what you call love.

they say the eyes are the gateway to the soul and all i see in them,
is me.

i really want to hug,
and cuddle,
and laugh together
and just kiss you to the point where i won't be able to breath
but you are in love with another girl who is perfect in your eyes
and i'm just here, waiting for you to love me too.
but i'm done; done waiting for you to tell me when it's time.
i still love you, i do.
but i'm done.

i'm slipping
slowly but surely
and it feels like i'm not going to be able to come back up anytime soon.

I. I saw the dusty corners in my house
from where all the drawers used to be
and they reminded me of
broken promises and lost memories

II. He was just a boy with a fragile heart
yet he had the ability to break her walls
(and also her bones)
He walked like a wildfire but acted like a gentleman

III. I stared at my empty bookshelves and
I wondered where this was going
People said that I couldn't make
a heart a home so I tried to make
my own house a home instead but
I kept failing
The maids didn't even put my books
in alphabetical order

IV. You told me that you didn't want
to lose me ever but now we're sitting far
from each other and all I can do is watch
as you slowly tear my skin apart

V. My mother said that we need to stay strong
but I can't do it if everything's trying to
pull me into the black hole again

VI. It's cold and I need your warmth so badly
but I'm afraid I'll freeze you
with the wind inside my lungs

VII. You're throwing my heart and watching
as it crashes onto the floor
I hurt my foot with the shattered pieces

VIII. I turned off my light last night
because I knew we both liked it that way
even though you weren't even there with me

IX. You tear me. I love you. You tear me.
I love you. It's okay, I love you.
this is about nothing in particular.. except for us moving out (again) in a couple of weeks. sigh.
Numb in my fingers so follows
My mind
All lost in my dreams
All lost to the sky

So kiss me to hold me
Please give me the eye
I need you to love me
No reasons nor why

For in that feeling I love you
Sends crazy to me
I want all your loving
I want to be free
you told me i was a creative light in a colourless world.
you told me i was resilient.
you told me i was beautiful.

and now, even though it's been hard,
i believe you.
