She just wants them
To notice,
But when they ask
She's 'fine'

She's screaming but
Keeps going
The same act, the
Same line
You're going to miss me
I hope you know
When you're gone
Surrounded by noise
And that silent moment
Creeps upon you
You're going to think of me
And you're going to wish
You said what you're thinking
Now, if only
You wouldn't hold onto
What you're feeling
And if it's nothing,
If it's nothing
Then please
Say goodbye
**Before you leave...

My wrists still hurt from
the day you grabbed my arm
and my cuts opened up
underneath my sleeve.
I pulled away
but I didn't mention the pain
because how do you tell someone
who has never shed a drop of blood in
their life,
that every part of you is bleeding.

I have so many exes'
I could make a ***** jealous.
I have enough sin in me
to make the devil envy.
I have loved so much
exhausted heart doesn't want to be touched.
I've won experience
but I have loss too;
the abiltiy to feel
and trust you.
you're all soft lines
and blurry edges:
like the moments between each
rise and fall of our chests
while your lips entwine mine
with every breath.

you're all droppy eyes
and silent screams:
looking behind you
everytime you leave,
keeping doors locked
and your teeth flossed.
never letting a single thing
escape your mind that you've lost.

you're all languishing stares
and rough hands -
you've kept mine clean,
laced yours around mine
and promised forever this time.

She loved the rain.
She loved the way it fell with purpose,
The way it changed from sprinkle to downpour.
The way it caressed her face
When she looked to the clouds
She thought it to be gentle
Beautiful.
So maybe that's why she didn't notice,
When the flood began,
That she was drowning.

           If
            I
        Could
         Find
           The
            Rhymes...
    Would
         You
             Be
                Mine?

Just wondering....

I told you my dreams were made of glass
But you ripped them to shreds like paper
You knew my heart was on a string
And yet you let me go
Flown away like a kite in the wind
You dropped me down stairs
And left me in my nightmares
No rescue from a lonely soul
My heart was strong but it knew no love
Until I saw you, we had a romance
Of the summer and sunsets and butterfly kind
You watched me learn to love
Like a baby learns to walk
Simple steps, hesitant at first
But then all at once
Yet when I fell, you would always catch me
The tears I cried for you, you wiped away
With gentle midnight kisses
But a dream in the day
So quickly turns to night
And sleep did not come
Only howls of the wolves
Like a vampire you bit
Into my soft skin
And I let you bite
So I could feel you within
I gave you my all and whatever was left
But you had already taken some
Now you took what was left
There is nothing for the next
No new tomorrow
Only pain and a sad sorrow
A gentle cry a long scream
The anguish of a broken heart
From the one who played its part
