Blue flames lick up the remains of us
We will never be the same
I will never trust anyone again
And you will never play with someones heart again
We treated the entity of us like a game
We juggled around with glass *****
We played with fire
We shattered the *****
We got burned
We are now nothing but ashes blowing away in the wind.

Tight constricting
My ribs are a cage
My heart wants to leap out

I want you
Need you
In more ways than one

Fevered touch
Heated lips
Against my skin

There is one thing left to do
The tangled sheets lift
We are carried away

Our arms fling wide open
Embracing the stars
They shine down

The light comes to a ******
The moon sighs
We sleep

I lay down
Ready to sleep
But then it happens...
The words start to creep into my mind
The thoughts start to swirl
A spark has been lit
I know that I can't stop the fire
So I just let it go.

I get my tools
Tea
Pillow
Fluffy blanket
Pen
Paper.

Let's get this started!
The words start to pour from my
Mind to my
Pen to my
Paper
I'm wrapped up in my blanket
Sipping my green tea
The flame just grows more intense
The moon is blazing in the sky
My green digital clock goes from 12:00 a.m.....to 12:25 a.m.....to 1:30
The tea is gone
The flame has died down
My eyes are leaden
My hand is numb and I lie down.

Then my alarm goes off
It's 5:30 a.m.
Time for school.
So yeah....it's midnight right now.

Rising and falling
In and out
  Deep breaths
    I'm just sitting here watching you my love
     You look so peaceful
       Just laying there eyes closed
        I'm so happy to see you here
         All of our friends think we spent the night in
          Tangled sheets
            Covered in sweat
              But the truth was
                The night was full of
              Soft words, soft touch
             It was a soft safe night
            Neither of us lost anything
          So here we are
         You're laying here
        Peaceful and I lie here
       Unable to sleep because
      I don't want to lose a single moment of this
    Soft breathing
   Soft words
Soft touch
I love you.

Quick breath
Sweaty palms
Blurred vision
Hastened touch
  The smell of your musky cologne
  The feel of your smooth finger
  The sight of your smooth silhouette
  The thudding of my heart
This is what happens at night
When the moon is full
This is what happens a night
When our lazy eyes wander far
This is the passion
The lust
The want
That takes over at night.

Roses are red
Violets are blue
-
These beads of blood are red
These dead lips are blue
-
The big bad wolf
Little Red Riding Hood
-
He hurt me, stole the most important parts of me
I'm Little Red walking naive and innocent through the forest
-
Mary had a little lamb whose fleece was white as snow
Baa baa black sheep have you any wool
-
The white is stained by the
Black of my stained purity
-
These are the tales I'll tell my children
I'll say beware the wolf
Don't trust
Don't love
Guard yourself
Don't leave the trail
Stay in the light
Don't let anyone near
Guard your garden of roses and violets
Keep your sheep in the field
Violets
Roses
Sheep
Wolves

Once upon a time
In a land far far away
There lived a word
That word doesn't exist now
It's a word that stopped wars
It's a word that made people care
It's a word that is now a lie

Once upon a time
In a land far far away
There lived a thing
This thing made people want to keep on living
This thing banished the act of giving up
This thing doesn't exist anymore

Once upon a time
In a land far far away
There live a man
This man lost the word
This man lost the thing
Now he lives without love and hope
He trudged through life with
No purpose no reason
He didn't see the purpose to keep going
He didn't see the light in life
So he hated and he gave up.
