Have you ever felt torn apart
your fingers losing grip like ripping seams
trying to hold on to the old and the new
while lost in a winding road of dreams
Have you ever felt lonesome in chaos
though the sound beats your ears 'til they ring
it's as if your head is underwater
because you can't seem to hear a thing
Have you ever wanted something so badly
that the sight of it just makes your knees weak
so you choose to steer clear to protect your own heart
because it could all fall apart with a peek
Have you ever been madly in love
but you just can't seem to fall
because you're tied back with the ropes of guilt from the past
and you can't afford to, once again, lose it all
Have you ever tried to cradle my heart
you must be gentle because it's barley in one piece
held together with glitter glue and forgotten excuses
yet somehow it's warmth never seems to cease
because I promise you the day when you hold it
you'll forget about the sadness that has continued to whizz
because the broken heart that continues to beat
that's what love really is.

there was a time when we were in love.
there were weeks when you and i would talk until dawn would break from the mountains.
when i would fall asleep knowing i was loved, and would wake up happy and ready to be loved again.
there were days that i would count down until the day i could see you again, those days were the worst.
but the best days were the ones when i could see that face of yours. the face i loved more than you could ever know.
there were hours spent laughing our ***** off under a clear sky and a city of stars.
those hours felt like lifetimes, until they left like seconds.
because soon it curdled;
weeks were spents worrying, days were spent crying, and hours were spent looking at an empty inbox.
but i do promise you there was a time when i loved you. and even if it was only for a split second, a time when you loved me too.
because somewhere, there was love intertwined in the knot of “us.”
it ended and i’m okay, because it was for the best. but i someday, somewhere, in some lifetime, our “us” lasted until the end of time.
and there’s a part of me that wishes more than anything, that that lifetime was this one.

I didn't know you didn't like me
I didn't know I made you mad
I didn't know I made you cry
I didn't know I hurt you so bad
I didn't know you hated me so
and I didn't think that we would end
But when you tell your little fibs,
They break shards that refuse to mend.
Your cruel words are masked behind a pretty face
And your smile leads me on to believe
That it truly is okay, but then you say
words that leave me deceived.
Your vicious claws tear through my skin
and you leave me out to bleed,
but in some twisted way, you whisper lies into their minds
and the blame, once again, rests upon me.
leaving this subject anon, but sometimes the people you cared about most hurt you in ways you could never imagine. Cheers to the sad, and lonley!

Your eyes
your voice
your hair
your hands
your smile
your everything
your good
your bad
your happy
your sad
your angry
your calm
your tired
your alive
If I had to chose again, I'd still chose you.
you and your everything.
I chose you.

She sat all alone
on a wilted flower bed
dead daisies in between her toes
rain dripping on her head
Thunder crackling in the distance
Clouds soon filled the sky
Though there was a thunderstorm overhead
Hurricanes roared in her eyes
She sat on the curb, just thinking
Clouds hovered over her thoughts
Rain falling and kissing her sunburned cheeks
Cupping all the rain that she caught
shed count the raindrops one by one
as they’d pitter pat onto the ground
letting her hurricane slip from her lips
without even making a sound
Hoping one day she'll find someone
who will sit here with her watching thunderstorms come and go
and share a little sadness
to help these wilted flowers grow

what do you want from me?
would you like my heart; cause if so i’ll hand it over
what do you need from me?
would you like my love; cause if so here it all is
what do you crave from me?
would you like my embrace; because if so i’ll wrap you in it everday
what do you wish from me?
would you like my kisses; because if so i will leave kisses on you from your lips, to your cheeks, to your neck.
what do you ask of me?
would you like me to tell you how i feel; because if so i would tell you everyday. I would let those beautiful three words dance from my lips into your ears without resistance.
“I love you,” they would whisper. “I love you, I love you, I love you;”
but would you do the same?

When our eyes meet the ashes turn to embers and flutter like golden butterflies.
They rise and swirl tickle the sides of my tummy.
It is a heavenly feeling
I would not give it up for the world, but I am scared that I will.
Because yellow only lasts for so long.

I once desired for your love,
But your love was never mine.
It was her’s, so I watched you two fall in love from behind.

I now desire for your love,
But is your heart still in her hands?
Or is it tucked away just for me
Like treasure hidden under sand?

Will I still desire for your love
In the next year or so?
Because although I’ve waited far too long
I can’t imagine letting you go.

So if I’ve stopped wishing by January
Please know that I’m fine
because I finally gave up on wishing
And took your love as mine

— The End —
