drawn in by the mayhem
attracted to disaster
there's a rush that comes with heartbreak
but comfort in ever after

there's beauty in this madness
despite the constant pain
for every blissful moment
reprimands the constant strain

infatuated with the new
but held back by the old
throughout this secrecy
the ending is foretold

change is ever terrifying
this is something we both know
but daring, you're already crying
your heart is dying to go

but there is comfort in the constant
and fear in the unknown
but take a good look in your garden
and see the dying flowers you'd once grown

wilted and malnourished
they've all begun to weep
but if you water them with newfound love
your secrets, they will keep

her voice is like an echo
it's burning in my mind
it's eery and its trailing
yet, it's what I yearn to find
so tempting, so inviting
as if offering you it's love
it's lures you in
it devours you
a pain you've never heard of


her eyes are that of a she wolf
burning yellow in a snowy haze
a glance leaves you petrified
as if you're trapped in her gaze
she keeps you there
you're not to move
or the end will come swiftly
but if you listen to her commands
she'll promise to love you gently


her body is like ******
your own personal brand
your veins become intoxicated
at just the touch of her hand
they told you you needed rehab
but you cried and said you'd be lonesome


her eyes are that of a she wolf
burning yellow in a snowy haze
a glance leaves you petrified
as if you're trapped in her gaze
she keeps you there
you're not to move
or the end will come swiftly
but if you listen to her commands
she'll promise to love you gently


you're slowly feeling the withdrawal
you knew this day would come
they all promise you'll be better soon
but you're numb
so you turn and run


because her eyes were that of a she wolf
burning yellow in a snowy haze
a glance left you petrified
as if you were trapped in her gaze
she kept you there
you did not move
but the end still came swiftly
even though you listened to her commands
she didn't love you gently

her
she's bent, and broken
soon to be shattered
but she puts on a smile
it's violent and scattered
she gave into the night
but she yerns for the light
but she gives in to the fear
she's afraid
she won't take a chance
if it's not in her plans
so she will never know
how you could help her

pale skin.
dark hair, green eyes.
very timid and shy.
feet on the ground, head in the sky.
charlie.

loneliness invites itself in
alone in my bedroom
you could hear the drop of a pen
I'm waiting for a call
that I know won't come
yet I stare at my phone
and feel my face go numb
my eyes start to burn
I try to withhold
but the tears return
I am alone
more alone than alone
I know you aren't to blame
but I'm losing my mind
I am drifting away
misery loves company
I understand it this time
Charlie W Gibson Feb 2014
it is more than a feeling
consuming the thoughts
more than an evil
leaving you empty and distraught
a being in itself
enveloping you in fear
tearing through the soul
as the feeling of end draws near
the mind drifts away
the heart becomes numb
surroundings melt
and break away into crumbs
familiar voices will say
"but you are so young!"
and a feeling of failure
the head remains hung
misunderstood
and that it shall remain
for no eyes see at night
while you writhe in pain
Charlie W Gibson Feb 2014
she belongs to the light
and he
to the night
but she
refuses to be afraid
vile eyes, full of hate
heart of igneous
she breaks down
the compounds
and love is known
