I know why I love horror films
I just never say it.
I love them
Because I am tortured by feelings
By empathy
By kindness
And I'm looking to learn
The kind of safety that comes with ruthlessness.
I'm looking to glance up just for one second into my own eyes in a mirror
And see nothing at all behind them.
Just once.
I think people who love as hard as I do always long to feel nothing.
Forgive me
Today
For I'm done living
Yesterday pains

Forgive me
Today
For I'm breaking
Tomorrow promises

Forgive me
Today
For I don't wish
Staying awake

Forgive me
Today
For all the memories
Forever save

Forgive me
Today
For tomorrow I might
Take my life away...

The echo of your soul
Singing waves in the ocean of her heart
Sound of a perfect orchestra.
The silence of thy heart,
Rhythm of most beautiful poem.
The touch of thy skin upon her scarred body,
Blessing of an angel.
Sing for her soul, the sound of thy
                                voice is heaven.
