There are things I wish I could control
Things that I don't understand
The things that I wish would happen
Even the things that make me cry

I'd love to know why you sip your coffee that way
And why you only like pizza on Friday
Why you rub your eyes when you're nervous
And for God sakes why can't you face your fears

I'd just like to know why do I mean so little to you?
*Why

Rock Bottom

Blank walls
Spilled ink
On the edge of the brink

How to fix it?
Jump away
Chock yourself into the bay

Let it rip
Thoughts that suffocate
Control it, initiate

ambiguity

You leaving was like when someone leaves your bed slowly.
The warmth hovers around and it envelopes your every need for the minutes that it settles.
But slowly time creeps by and the cold air replaces everything you thought it was.
You’re stuck there staring at the blank walls
And the sun illuminating your lips whispering to you that it’s another day.
Reality slaps the smiles that arise as your thoughts take over your pure mind.
Again, it’s that **** cold air that brings the reminder that you’re gone.

Lost Cause

The unbearable pain of rejection
We've all experienced this at least once
As if you're placed in a freezing plane
Bare, alone, and insane

Your heart is dissected
Cut into bits and pieces
Open and infected
What's going on?

I thought I had it figured out
Not an ounce of doubt
A steady foothold
With a heart unable to mold

The inability to control your emotions
Running high and proud
Yet you're the coward that suffers
An infatuation like no other

I mean you're at this blind
Someone captures your insecurities and will make you unwind
The lies, the false promises
Not to mention their accomplice, you.

Already aware of all liabilities
Left to rot with wonder of endless possibilities.

A sad story, connected with a bad case of terrible luck.

Burning Flame

A constant struggle
Putting together fractions of the unsolved puzzle
Smashing your head against the wall
As you lament by draining your waterfall
Rupturing every bit inside you
Expressing the powerlessness you thought you outgrew
Sono innamorata
Flowing through me like burning lava
It's unfathomably superb
Keeps you on high hopes
And a stage of being morosely absurd.

Lips so Red

Look at the way she laughs
The way she looks back when she smiles
To make sure she's putting on a good show
Her grace
The way she wears that lace
And the way I run my right hand down her spine
Then she turns around to make sure I still look at her the same
It's a constant battle of perfection
Every move is a calculated selection
Who knows when she'll realize I love her
All of her
Not just the time she rubs her fingers through my hair
Or the times she stops and stares
Then gently kisses my hand
And even when she laughs so hard she is unable to stand
Then of course she latches on to me
That's the moment that nobody can see
How wonderful is it to grasp something so precious
A love so infectious

Social One

They tell me I'm crazy for walking alone
But isn't it better than getting chewed to the bone?
Criticized, corrected, and neglected
It's similar to being dissected.
I'd rather enjoy my thoughts
You know the ones that are made up and always sought
I find it a bit more relieving
Though it's sad and naturally deceiving
