The best word for me,
Must be fragile,
Easily broken,
Sensitive to touch,
Too soon shattered,
I don't fit in with stereotypes,
I'm too much of everything,
To be one,
Young at heart,
But an old soul,
Damaged goods,
With wounds that don't heal,
And a mind that bleeds,
In words

Old trauma and spilt blood,
Fill my head,
Newer to my mind,
Than yesterday's sky,
Which I cease to remember

I think I'd like to be,
Someone else,
For just one day,
To shed my heavy cloak,
Of black and despair,
And walk in the sun

Maybe if I didn't know you,
I'd jump off a bridge or a building,
Crash a car and not survive,
Draw every last drop,
Of blood from my veins,
But everytime I think,
Of pills and over-dosing,
I realise now,
I've too much to lose

For Charles who is actually super amazing and really can stop death.

Sleep well,*
Well I can try,
But you know,
I'll be lying awake,
All night,
In my empty bed,
Just thinking of you

He's changing daylight,
Influencing eating,
Sleeping,
Breathing,
Turning off the lights,
Floating in the breeze,
Sleeping on the moon,
I can't keep my eyes,
Away from its shine,
All the while,
I'm wondering why,
At times, so unpredictably,
Yet forseen all the same,
He's silent and vague,
Drifting by,
Too fast yet too slow,
For me to even try,
To figure him out

"**** me now",
She begs for forgiveness,
But Death is unkind,
Death rejoices,
In the pain of the innocent,
Death abandons,
Those who welcome its presence,
It victimises the undeserving,
Those who only ask to be left
To carry out pleasant, perfect lives
