I think my heart is crying but I'm refusing to hear the screams.
I think my skin is turning blue without you,
because you were my life support and when you took off,
I no longer had air to fill these broken lungs with.
You said I wasn't all that great but I swear when
you first met me you couldn't look away. I blame
time because it changes people and now I can't help
but notice the chipped paint on my bedroom walls.
See, with you I looked at the world with hope-filled
eyes and everything was magic.  Now I can't help but
find dead people my late night entertainment.  I write
your name on damaged buildings hoping that maybe
one day you'll see that I put you before me and the sun
was our audience. You never liked how I compared your
eyes with the sea, now I keep choking on water but I'm
on land with a photograph of you smiling.

My heart continues to beat for the  seconds,
With all the  scars  it has
It continues to  love  
Because that's all it knows

i thank my hands
for wiping my tears tonight
i thank my eyes
for crying releases the pain
i thank my skin
for being a scarred canvas

You used to have
sunsets
in your eyes,
but it seems as if they
have turned to
dusk
since she left.*

I used to be afraid of what would happen if I lost you, but now I'm afraid of where I would be if I were still with you.

He was a forest
fire
and I was the
oxygen
that enabled him to
grow.
He burned
everything
in his path, leaving
nothing
untouched by his
flames.
I blamed
myself
for all the destruction he
caused,
even though he scorched
me
worse than anything.*

No roses are required they just wilt anyway
just spend time with me that is a gift that no one can take away
No fancy meal is needed
No standard cliché just for Valentines day
No  need to dress up
No need for a cup of wine
I just want to spend time with you
it don't matter what we do
A simple pizza and a movie or listening to a good tune
should  create some memories that will last way beyond
Valentine's day
No need to say be mine
You will find that the Valentine is already written in my heart
