What is it going to take for you to notice me,
I've tried everything ,
From walking by you to texting you,
You don't get it and I'm crushed,
Still crushing on you.

Halo
 Jan 2015 em
rained-on parade
I was the one who swallowed the sun
and yet it is your touch that burns
on to my skin like an insignia of shame;
halos of quiet desperation,
a footprint on the welcome mat to our own
little hell.

So the next time you cry for your skin,
remember
I scar for you.
Depressed.

I may be far from a sober mind
And you may be far away, dear
But maybes are made to be built on
And things can only be built up from here
I'm not drunk you're drunk

Shock me soundly, brittle bird
crunch me under stained glass shards
  crash my plane of what's unheard
breaking me hard.

Acquaint me soundly, brittle bird
make the song of an empty sea
strip me bound of all I learned
falling me free.

Sleep me soundly, brittle bird
dream me of hallow and point crest
squeeze and shake out saintly words
filling my rest.
If anyone wonders the weights and ideation behind my name, here is a small poem. Originally inspired by the song 'Red' by Lost In The Trees; which I think is absolutely beautiful.
