Unfair does it have to be
Laying in bed in half a stupor
Dazed with sleepless pain
It is but another way to suffer

Deja vu in reverse, memories hated
Like yesterday's dreams of torture and malice
Plastic veins injected to hear the call
The disease returned upon us

You break down our walls
You take our moments and minds
with no purpose or intent
Fear will not keep us from living

You hide inside of us
only to mask your hateful crime
You run cowardly away
You have taken lives but you will not take mine
Lost many relatives to cancer and just found out my other sister has it now..lost a sister in Sept 15..both my parents had it... over 20 in my family

I used to feel the tides
Feel at ease with them
Let the water wash over me
I used to be
Where the water met the land
The oceans wave at me
And used to drown
At low tide
The sea watching me recede
I used to
Be high as I watched the tide
Rolling in at night

But all the sharks
And shipwrecks
Riptides to pull me under
My nautical affinity

I fear
I may never see the ocean again

her relationships always end in fire
it's nothing to admire
passion is a weak foundation for love.

it wears down easily and burns too quick
volatile personalities that should not mix
like a match and wood.

i have seen her way
dark feelings held at bay
great when good and awful when bad.

Beautiful fire can take away a breath
but I'd rather have a cold death
than a hot one.

There is some kind of love,
which makes us feel special,
and lets us fastly shove,
ourselves inside the enigma of devil.

At first we don't know what to do,
are we really in love?

But then we find out more about us,
we get to know the person we actually are.

They teach us how to live,
people we care about,
teach us how to survive,
in the enigma of devil without any doubt.

Not ordinary
Confused and hollowed
Trick the bottle
Poison swallowed
End of the day

We learn so much
We learn it all too late
Value of dreams, love, life
In favour of money, left to wither
Our children grow, uninterested in the passage of time
One last game of catch, tea, band practice
Whilst we look at budget reports
Time closes in

Wide, innocent eyes
Become wise and concerned
Each year, feeling shorter and shorter
While the visits to the doctor become longer and longer
The kids start to visit less
We never earned their time
We never tried our best

It all went by so fast
We, I, could have been better
Present, caring
Awake to that which made them smile
Even after they left home,
Should have seen, should have known

There was love inside their hearts
But we grew up blind
And now it's twilight
And the sun is already gone
We learn so much
We learn it all too late

~ deep inside ~

Take me to a place,
deep inside your heart,
a place I want to know,
and see every part.

Tell me all your dreams
you feel deep within,
a place you feel confident,
deep inside your skin.

Take my hand, and I'll take
you to my place inside,
a place within my heart,
to discover and never hide.

My heart will love you,
with nothing for you to give,
I'll love you unconditional,
with a beautiful life to live.

Becoming a room,
becoming a hallway,
becoming the scope beyond a door,
widening into sky.

Our breath, every moment,
like water in every direction,
and then space.

my reflection, anatomical inaccuracy reads something like:

fairy dust in a silt layer, bones all shattered at the press of her fingers, and for months I molded a sandcastle around the soft

sinking, drinking ichor from a cocktail glass and dragging nails across my discomfort -

did you see that girl taking a tempest inside herself, to warp her sinew, spreading from this side of the universe to other?

in the lamplight I bit a secret onto the ridge of her spine; *sometimes I sleep near fires hoping my insides become glass

Fiery
Furies,
Lapping
At the base
Of the door.

Whisper
Cloyingly sweet,
"Let me in..."

OH!!
If only
To rapture.
