You break into my psyche uninvited
and don't give me a choice but to see what you see
and feel what you feel.
And you make sure i know
That you live for the feeling my lips bring
You smile at my Freudian slips
And as long as your arms contain all of me,
You're sure you can go on
Jay Forrest Nov 2012
I love you too
I'm fine I'm just tired
My cat scratched me
Lie lie liar. Liar, you'll pay for your sins.
Jay Forrest Nov 2012
I don't know why I thought I mattered
I don't know why I thought you cared
Excuse me
Jay Forrest Nov 2012
Shh dont speak
Just lie here with me and forget the world
Because there's a hell of an universe next door
And with your skin on mine
Goosebump to goose bump
None of this matters
Thoes eyes that have looked into my soul
3 inches away from mine
Who too have ventured into the whirlwind of your true self
And you, in your purest form, are beautiful
A beauty that I am reluctant to share with the world
You are mine and in the same way i am yours
We belong not together but as one
Jay Forrest Nov 2012
When you left, you left
Like a majestic bird
Gracefully and peacefully you soared away until you were but a mark on the horizon
Do you remember?
I'd wake up screaming
But your departure was much more than a simple night terror
It was the worst dream come true
Do you remember?
Nothing and no one could comfort me
The only thing I wanted was the only I couldn't have
I'd cry and hope for that bird to swoop back around and take perch on my shoulder
But I knew my phoenix wouldn't take shape again
Do you remember?
Jay Forrest Nov 2012
you
I've spent hours contemplating
the words to say to you
but no combination
of twenty six letters
could ever capture
even a sliver of what this feeling is
not mine
Jay Forrest Nov 2012
Go to sleep crying
Wake up
Crying
Because I woke up
They walk in and I smile
I talk
I laugh at their jokes
Crack a few of my own
But then they leave
And I cry
Because I'm so good
I'm so ******* good at looking okay,
I can't be helped
Seemingly perfect on the outside but
If you roll up my sleeves
If you looked at the scars
You'd realize
People in life are more ****** up than they appear
