The blood of dinosaurs
pump through the soil
serving as cold platter
for the lit Norwegian cigarette  

The war of music pump paragraphs of hope
through the ear of youths
burning lips in pursuit of happiness.

In search of naked pictures of God in our mirrors,
the internet spent our laws and threw our only hallelujah out the sea—
and Arachne smiled, knowing she’s now the Womb—
and all men come in the belly of eternity in order to be.

I wish you would have stopped
But instead you dropped
Me from heaven to hell
And I'm sorry I couldn't tell
You how wonderful you were.
So you've replaced me with her.

I'd really like to die,
Though I lack the will to try,
To **** myself in everyone's plain view.
If only the cause weren't you...
Maybe I live too simple of a life for you.
You're not used to slowing down for a second or two...
To think about your actions
And study potential reactions.
There was a time I was naïve too
When I flew high with you.
I got cocky and mean...
And you decided never to be seen...
With a boy like me a-gain.
So Elizabeth Raine,
Please have no shame...
Though you'll find things ****
Since you murdered my heart.

You are the Siren song to my ship
You sing in your sleep
Unaware of the pitfall that is your Beauty

Please do not trust me, for I am adrift
It’s been several years since I was grounded
And I am searching for anything to hold my foot steady

We are a lot alike you and I
Except it is you that rises in the East and sets in the West
While I am what follows

I want to be fearless
I want to stand tall
And I want him to say he loves me
And break through my concrete wall

I’ve never known love
I’ve never felt its embrace
It’s never looked me in the eye
And told me that it was okay

They say that sparks fly
The very first time
I wonder what that’s like
I bet it feels nice

You’re not afraid of being vulnerable
Of taking down your concrete walls
And letting everything spill out
And making a mess of it all

But you say it was enchanting
It was like love at first sight
And you spoke of a love story
And a sparkling night

Tell me more of how it feels
Standing on the sort of holy ground
That makes someone fall to their knees
And want to dance around

I want to be fearless
Yeah, I think I’m ready to fall
And take the chance not being caught
Rather than not loving at all

Maybe if we smile
We can forget for a while
Then our pain will seem no more
And together we can walk to the shore
Because, you see, you were drowning
On the verge of death, willing
To let it all consume you
Yet, love was all you had to do
Do you love me?
Or are you just confused?
For it seems you have forgotten
That I will not be used
We weren't meant to be like this
So alone and broken
If you had let me save you
I wouldn't have spoken
I said hurtful words
You know I didn't mean it
I didn't want you to hurt
But can't you see?
This is killing me
No, I can't breathe
And I won't fall asleep
Because the blame's on me
Maybe if we smile
We can forget for a while
Then our pain will seem no more
And together we can walk to the shore
Because, you see, we were swimming
Trying our best to stay alive
Though I could tell you were willing
To let yourself die...
