Run your hands
Over my body
Leave no cell untouched
Have you missed me?
Didn't think so.
Do you remember when you last saw me?
I do.
At least I have our memories, Andrew.
Everyday I wake praying it was all a dream.
I open my eyes hoping to find you beside me.
Writing absolute crap lately, sorry.

I hate how much I ******* miss him.
I'm still in love with you, Andrew.
There once was a boy
who rescued a bird.
He loved the bird
and the bird loved him.

One day the boy grew up
and he changed,
He tried to drug the bird
to "fix" it.

When the bird wouldn't comply,
He simply left it behind.

Sometimes I drive fast
to feel what it's like
to be alive again
Humanity
cannot grip the thought
of loosing everything
and everyone.
but oh my darlings,
one day our corpses will be underneath the ground;
and our souls will be dancing with Angels;
the loved ones we lost so long ago.
do not fear death,
for death brings you home.
and home is where we all belong.
People repeatedly tell me everyday that I overthink every situation; I always have to think of the worst possible outcome.
I guess I am this way because I am a writer...my brain is functioned differently from everyone else who does not use a paper and pencil to let out all the feelings.
Some people can use their words verbally to explain their feelings, but I am different.
My brain thinks of words, metaphors, the truth.
My mouth stutters, shuts, and stays closed.
Writing is the only way I can truly express myself,
I was given hands to write the words my mouth cannot conjure up.
My brain is my weapon,
My brain is my power,
My writing is who I am.
and it gets harder to breathe when the only thing keeping                                                            
me alive is an hallucination of
your fingertips that trace patterns
down my spine
when i awake to find coldness
by my side, embracing me
with its trendils that should have been your
arms. so i heave a sigh as i
try to live with dead weight limbs that
drag me down, and it gets
harder when i search the crowds
for your face, knowing that i'd never
catch the slightest glimpse of my safe haven again
and i try (unsuccessfully) to soothe the stinging
wound of knowing that you left
without saying goodbye.

Sorry if you can't read it.
Kinda.
I knew you would forget, just as soon as the sun would rise,
But your words, cliché and hollow, came as no surprise.
I asked but one small favor, at both break and close of day,
Just to hear you say hello, but now, hope's bled away.
