I thought you were my medicine but too much medicine can make you even more sick so I changed and said you were my bandage but bandages can be wrapped too tightly and cause further damage to the simplest of wounds. I wish I could come to my senses and admit that you are neither my medicine nor my bandage; you are my sickness and you are the slash across my ******* wrist that is leaking all of this blood and leaving me helpless and dangerously close to death. You are the poison that burns my throat and is slowing killing me and I never wanted to admit to my drinking problem but I'm soon to be six feet under and I don't even know if I want to cry out for help or not anymore.

I thought I was your light when yours went out
But you turned me off when you dragged us down
I taught you what love was, you showed me hurt
I gave you my heartache for all that it's worth

In my perfect world the stars shine for you and i
I was somehow forgetting, the past speaks in stars
And I'm somehow regretting what was never ours
I hope you know

I left you with memories, you left me this town
Where all that reminds me of you drags me down
I'll burn this to nothing, for you one day

Don't tell me I'm far better off without
Throwing your name down the road we turned off
Cause I burned down the bridges
I'm over them now with my feet glued to the ground

Do you plan to forget me
The way that I promised I'd never forget you?
Now I'm stuck inside with this, feeling sorry for myself
That you messed up and you're with somebody else
So don't come home
Cause I'm finally feeling okay here without you
We're better off alone
Together with you is just not where I belong

I'm done with writing songs about you
The worst of you is holding me back
These are my last words to remind you
That your name is just a mark in my past
Do you remember I painted the world with your name?
But you broke me and painted my heartache with pain
And I'm over missing that part of you now
I know you're happy with someone else somewhere, somehow
Stuck with Forever Ends Here. Forever and Never.

Believe in humanity,
You are not so cool,
In today’s world,
Cheaters’ rule,
When you cheat,
You get applaud,
Want to grow,
Learn skill of doing a fraud,
Threat is the key,
Fear is the word,
Honesty never survives,
This is what I’ve learned,
Grab the power,
Spread the word,
Hunt the flock,
That little tiny bird!
This is the truth,
This is the trend,
You just follow,
To survive my friend!!!

Should've known we wouldn't last,
Why did I even tried so hard,
But I know I still love you,
I'm sorry I can't be the one.

The more you think about it,
The more it seems confusing.

The more I tell you stories,
The more you'll discover
Who I am
And
What I was..

But telling you these,
Makes me feel closer to
you.
But, everytime
I show you my cracks,
My fears,
My fragile and humane
Personality,
The more it pains me
To hear your words
And stare at the sky
telling myself that
I am

alright.

You are
The string
That attatches my
sanity.
But you are the scissors
That can
Cut my throat
And let me choke
On my own
Cold blood.

Your smile is so perfect, so natural.

**And your words are true and sharp, like the blade cutting the shackled animal.
My nightmares are converted into reality and poetry.

Your love is as sweet as the sugar,
                   That  I've been addictively indulging,
             For so many years.



        Every piece of you,
                      Is just the most gratifying that I have tasted!





                                   But when together we've been drowned with tribulations,





                                    You just gave up rapidly...






And dissolved!




                                   Integrating and going with the flow,

                         Of those torments and allurements,





Now where are you?




You are now a part of those afflictions that drowned you,


                                            I can still taste your sweetness,


                      Every time I sip through the trials,
                                That we've face,
          Resulting to weaken your knees,
    And been defeated,





       I was totally in great pain,


        To know that your love,

Can be just greatly surmounted,

                            By miseries in life,



But what can I do?

                                            I fight, you relinquish,


And until then,

You just become a memory,

Of an achingly baleful chronicles of my life.

Idiosyncrasy
I woke up
With a heavy heart
Today
Tears slowly rolling
Down my face
That made things
Much worse
For I'm feeling
Every move
Of pain.

I dreamed of you
Last night
You came by
I was like a prisoner
Expecting no
Visitors at all
You brought tulips
Orange and violet
So I knew
I was happy.

That was my dream
After a very long time
I guess
I need not say
Why I woke up
With a heavy heart
Tears slowly rolling
Down my face
Feeling every move
Of pain.

C
i find myself thinking of you before bed,
because if i can't see you when i'm awake,
at least i can see you while i'm asleep,
but when i wake,
i find myself wiping away tears with my *******,
because i'm so confused,
lost,
and curious.
curiosity killed the cat,
this i know,
but satisfaction brought it back.
i wish you would bring me back with satisfaction.
When you put on a smile and laugh
No one can see the misery inside

When you put on a smile and laugh
The hurt you  feel remains trapped inside

When you put on a smile and laugh
You mask the bitterness you feel inside

When you put on a smile and laugh
No one can see the emptiness inside

When you put on a smile and laugh
Your shattered heart seems whole inside

When you put on a smile and laugh
The pain you endure remains trapped inside

When you put on a smile and laugh
You make sure no one sees you
                                                             ­      ...........Dying a little inside.
What I'm feeling everyday my friends
I see myself as dead.
When I scroll through all the pictures,
I see myself as though I've passed on -
A eulogy for every smiling image,
A remembrance for missing moments.
When I see myself, I am frozen in a sweet story
And it's as though it is lost forever
And I mourn each passing memory, maybe
Because those moments are surely gone, or
I am simply not a positive person, still
I know I must
Let go of happy memories and
Appreciate present glories...
Though,
I feel that I lose myself throughout time
As I create new entities
That dance most well with given moments, then
Let them dance away,
For they are only suited for one another -
A version of myself and a single moment unmatched,
Not meant for anywhere else or any other time.

It is as though
I am looking at photographs from these past dances
And seeing a life that is no longer
And it's a part of my own.

Do You Know


Do you know a life of loneliness and one filled with pain,
living a life with nothing to gain,
Surrounded by darkness, overwhelmed with shame.
A life without peace with no one to blame.

Do you know of a place unseen,
A place that holds only shattered dreams,
A place filled with sorrow with no end in sight,
I am given this gift each and every night.

Do you know of a place so cold,
This is the place I call my soul,
A place without hope or comforting dreams,
A life not worth living wouldn't it seem.

Do you know of a life that should have never been,
And the feeling that today this life has to end.
One more day of sadness is much too hard to bear,
I am tired of living a life of heartache and despair.

Do you know a person with so much pain inside,
Or the feeling of loneliness when no one hears your cries,
Maybe when the tears are gone and I can clearly see,
The only question left will be...

DO YOU KNOW ME

damsel in distress
I am okay
Everything is fine
I am happy
I have nothing to wish for
Except for making these lies true

I am not okay,
Never was and never will be
Everything falls in wrong places
I don't wanna be sad anymore
But I guess dreams were meant for sleeping
How do you feel?
