You phone me at quarter-to-eleven,
Telling me that you belong in heaven,
But you are only intoxicated,
And now that I've been inocculated,
With this long, never-ending depression,
I know how to accept your confession.

But don't you try to find reasons to go,
Because I will instinctively follow,
So let me collect your tears in my palm,
And soothe your forehead 'til you're coldly calm,
So that you forget about ****** blades,
And let this frightening fear slowly fade.

i guess i am
only calling you
at 2 am tonight because;
i miss strong arms around me
comforting kisses on my forehead
reasurring smiles
loving words told
to warm my heart

and i know you're the only one
who will give me those things
and truly mean them
when you do

even though i have to
give you fake smiles
and dry kisses
in return
Some lies are of omission
remaining deep inside
others pour down like rain
without a place to hide

Although they are quite different
their quest may be the same
to find a place of safety
to  help silence their shame

Remember...
The bashful gazes that worked their way into your armour

Remember...
The clumsy saunter that incited your laughter

Remember...
The lips that parted confidently only to reveal child-like stutter

Remember...
The warmth that enveloped your hand as we walked together

Remember...
The winter day's kiss that felt like never-ending summer

Remember...
The day disappointment overwhelmed and doubt grew bolder

Remember...
The inevitable conflicts that resulted in futile banter

Remember...
The embrace when everything fell apart and seemed unclear

Remember...
The whispers that failed to soothe when your pillow got wetter

Remember...
The journey that now seem to not matter

Remember...
My heart as you once did...
As your silhouette drifts away,
everyday much further
Light, dancing wildly
Spectrums of colour, of creation
I look at my reflection
Against the cool glass
my breath staining it like frost
Sometimes I am transparent
like this mirror, like this cold air
and still, I look into myself
the crushing weight of the world
making the glass pulse
and my pulse, shatter
My emotions bleed out onto a wood frame
seeping through and taking shape
Turbulent, uncertain, blazing, brilliant
Is this me?
My inner turmoil made flesh
inside this glass tomb

I am, as I have always been,
On the wrong side of the mirror.
"I look inside myself and find perfect emptiness"

I feel as if I’ve stumbled upon Wonderland.
Where there’s no sadness,
Only madness.
Driven by insane desire,
The desire to live.
To repent.
Tea parties forever ongoing.
Waiting for the guest of honor,
Who may never show.
Flowers singing.
God is the caterpillar.
The royal adviser is a white rabbit,
Who is almost always late.
This world is so maddening.
How do you stay?
Is it because you’re mad too?
Because you can’t tell.
It’s normal for you.
So nothing is mad.
All is sane.

Loud like the taste of a memory
Thick and cold with the hint of a reverie
Sinking your teeth into the extremities
Of all, that is left of me

Constant noise that is loud and clear
A sound which I have come to fear
The clatter and bang of all I held dear
The end is coming
It's forever near

Ive written too many words
To ask you to stay.
Too many letters that beg;
That spell out desperation.
So go ahead,

*Leave.
