This is how you break me
I am L Jul 2020
Under tangled sheets and nessy heads
With empty hearts and thirsty souls
This is how you break me
With lies and faken apathy
With words unspoken
And promises broken

emergency
I am L Jan 2014
Run run run
Before he catches you
Run run run
Before he feeds on you
Run run run
Before nothing’s left of you

(the monster beside you)

Pressure
I am L Jan 2014
The comfort of my words
and
the terror of my thoughts.

troubled soldier
I am L Jul 2013
You walk around with your demons in your head
Shouting and laughing and crying and mocking
You walk around with your demons in your head
Singing and dancing and clapping and stomping

I met you and your demons
And I thought that you were too good
I met you and your demons
And your soul became their food

I would have silenced your demons
But you chose them over me

I wanted to save you
but there's only too much that I can do
I couldn’t fight for someone who
Doesn’t see his worth
I couldn’t fight for someone who’d
Already surrendered himself

I am just a fraction of who you are
And I couldn’t be more
Since you’ve given them your all

But you my darling,
I am L Jul 2013
you are the song
I wish I didn't hear
you are the poem
I wish I didn't write
you are the story
I wish I didn't read
you are the film
I wish I didn't see
you are the sweater
I wish I didn't fit
you are the face
I wish I didn't touch
you are the pillow
I wish I didn't hug
you are a lot of things
I wish I didn't do
but most of all
you are the boy
I wish I didn't love
I am L Jul 2013
because shame on me
for missing you for the things I shouldn't
and loving you for the things you are not
but most of all
shame on me
for just letting you go even though I know
you're all I'll ever want

Thief
I am L Jun 2013
You drained me of my love
You took my heart and took it all
My feelings, my dreams
They’re all with you now
I am lost and confused
You left me with nothing but a bruise
A hollow part in my chest
A place where my heart used to rest
You took it all and left me with nothing
Not a goodbye, not a warning
You took everything and all of me
You took everything and the whole of me
One word and I thought I wouldn't fall
One word and I let you took it all
It is stupid in all the wrong ways
and the worst part? dare, I not say
You took my heart
You took my soul
and you didn't even know

— The End —
