They met shouded in darkness.
They found eachother within the stars.  
They ascended at the hands of pleasure.
Among heavy sighs and wimpers. Lost in a momement to remember

Ive thought a lot about what we had.
All the lies you spoon fed me.
How I swallowed them so carelessly.

All I wanted was your love.
My love never proved enough.

You'd falter from time to time.
Catch your eye on someone else's thigh.
Crawl back like a rat.

I became your comfort.
Your home.
The blindfold peeled from these eyes.
The truth was bright.

It starts bravely
With one step forward
It starts calmly, with a slow exhale.
It moves.

The heart no longer aches.
It washes away.
Sinking slowly, sinking in.

Breath deep; everything in the back of your mind.
Careless.

While I lay there naked
I had wished you'd told me the way you felt
Staring into my hazel eyes
I wish you had grabbed me by my heartstrings
Never said goodbye
I wish we had laid in that bed of self righteousness
Made a life out of the pride we had left
I pray that you find happiness
In a woman
Keep her safely in your life
I hope that every day that we cross paths
You thank the day we traded names
I hope you wish we had found our children
That we had raised and named in our dreams
We could have our built a home out of passion
Of our guilty satisfaction of meeting at 2am

I look sick and pale. Like I’ve lost my mind,
and look there it goes, the love from my eyes.

The silence between us, the deafening of nothing.
Breaking my back in misery.

Feelings of weightlessness, and a common fear.
Emotional baggage, with no one to steer.

There was a fire in the sky, and a hell in my heart.

Perched on her side of the bed.
She has that glow about her.
Her skin as white as porcelain.
He's staring at the nape of her neck; fantasizing.
Her hair is falling over her left shoulder, draped with carelessness.
Boldly naked, they ache for warmth.

I had found the courage, I had done it.
It slipped through my fingers just as fast as I had caught it.
The word sacrifice doesn't even begin to cover what we had done.

{I wish you weren’t so ****** up.}

We had love that would be admired by all, but was kept so tightly.
We have a love, that will be envied by no one.

We are lost lambs with no place to call home.
