Air freshner
Fausto Patiño Jul 2017
Primero vino en forma de la brisa del ambientador
Odiaba cuando entraba
Su sonrisa en las puntas de el holor
Era color naranja y prometía darte la illusion de un paraiso
Lo unico que me daba eran suspiros
Y esperanza que pronto se me quitara el hechizo

Distractions
Fausto Patiño Nov 2014
Distractions
Are just that
A way to remove your self from reality
But you can't hide for ever
At around midnight when the world sleeps, so do your distractions
The demons as you call them slip in the room
Memories creep from the crevice of the past  into you.
Taking over every inch of your thoughts
Like cancer multiplying at a rapid pace
Try and control it but the efforts go to waste
Your hearts starts galloping and won't hold place
A million angry bees start to make their way into your mind
And there's no controlling them you draw short of breath and your chest is tight
You close your eyes but it only brings you to a roller coaster and you're already mid flight

The cowards way out
That's what she called it
I wish she would have left my heart broken battered and bruised the way she found it
Instead she mended it stitched it up and kept it alive
All the while it got stronger and so did I
So that one day I can tell her to get the **** out of my life
The cowards way out
It's the fastest route to no admission guilt and my heart figured it out.
It took me for ever to realize you cared for me even loved me you only meant well
All the while I shunned you kept you hidden and slowly dragged you to to hell
The ravaging part is I came out unscathed
I see the damage that I cause but I'm yet not afraid
You trusted me, I let you down your heart is broken but I weep because I can't do the same.

— The End —
