A penny for your thoughts
A nickle for your time
Would you smile for a dime
I want all of you
Erin Nov 2015
Sin
Sin so sickening yet beckoning you closer,
Its twisted tendrils of temptation seeking your destructive desires,
Your purity is worthless and hidious, it seeks your submission to the sinister
Ferociously endeavoring its newest prisoner
Devouring your sanity, it enters your skin
Surrounded by blackness, you start chasing sin

GO AHEAD
I say, with light gleaming mischievously in my eyes
Try to change me
Me the girl far too messy
and not quite together
Me the girl too energetic and insistent
Me the girl who doesn't really fit in...
but doesn't really want to
Me the girl who is genuine on the inside
and refuses to become society's fake idea of beauty
Me the girl who laughs...
maybe a bit too much...
in times where silence is needed
ME    THE     GIRL
So go ahead, just you try and change me

im sorry i get angry at you
when you cant give me what poetry can
poetry holds me late at night
whispering sweet words of loving
poetry listens and reflects all of me
poetry knows me a little to well
and cries with me when my hearts breaking
poetry is all of what i want it to be
im sorry i hate you when you can be what poetry is to me
Erin Nov 2015
Take my heart, within your hands,
Promise me its broken pieces will be enough for you
Take my love and my demands
Open my eyes so I can once again see the world
I need you please, I forgot how to do this
I want to ask you, but feel too nervous
I am foolishly falling, will you catch me
Just stay right here and hold me tightly
Erin Nov 2015
If I was granted the chance,
to have you once again,
If fate decided differently,
And your life didnt end...

I would hold you within a warm embrace,
Because grief replaced you too quickly.
And the words 'she's in a better place' have sounded far too sickly,
Let me look within your eyes, try to fiercy remember each detail,
I'm filled with fear that when I think of you, my memory could fail.

Give me the opportunity to fulfill the promises I pushed to 'another day'
I wish I realized time is not loyal, there are still words left to say
I love you, today and forever, I would say it much more often,
I should of told you, you mean everything to me and that you will never be forgotten
And if that chance didnt come, I would settle for a poem
Because I'd fall apart without you and forever stay broken
Erin Nov 2015
Your screams stay silent, never heard,
Their thoughts are violent and absurd,
Your demons vicious, spitting venom
They whisper words of sick intentions
'Do not cry' they laugh with spite
'It could be time to say goodnight'
The darkness fills, you shut your eyes
And choke out one final goodbye
