in the chaos of my mind
i found stillness in your eyes

Love isn't something you trip and fall into
not when it's right-

Love should be exhilarating
but calm and steady.

It's not an accident because
it should be purposeful and safe.

When it's really love
you won't ever land-

Because you'll be too busy
rising, to have ever fallen.

she was wiser than most
and overly cautious at times
because of this.

her quiet observations
were the reasons
for her hesitation.

she kept her distance
with all but a few.

a few, who knew the woman
she really was.

the woman of fury and strength
that lived inside-
her outwardly coy demenour.

as every ounce of confidence she has falls from her heavy wet lashes onto the bathroom floor,
she sits and wonders how someone so strong and beautiful can crumble within seconds
but the emptiness and confusion she feels in her soul is simply her own demons scratching from her core to get out;
for her to free them from weighing her down

from the crack of the door that is closing
i observe your new love blossom

until now i've only known you as two things:
my lover and an utter stranger

i never knew you as you loved another
and i wish i never had to

so with great pain i must shut this door
and wish you farewell

I am lost, but I thought  
I was heading in the right direction
Though each turn I make
Takes me further from my destination
Like each step I take
On the stairway to heaven
Just takes me one step closer.
...To my eternal damnation
