Meet me where the rising sun won't glow on our faces
When the hour strikes time aghast as hurried hands tie laces
Meet me at the scraggly wharf by the river
Where lips whisper on each others breath and trembling tongues quiver
Take me in the darkest corner of the the old abandoned shed
Love me like no other man or I shall have your head
Maybe if I let the music move me
Instead of moving it
The road to success would become one of enlightenment
Maybe if I let my heart guide my hand
Instead of my hand strangling it
I would learn to feel the things I thought were once lost
Maybe if you let me touch your lips
Without kissing back
I would warm up to your breath

Instead of holding my own
I'm destined to fall for all the wrong people
The people who are too good too pure for this mess
I've always been told I'm dangerous, lethal
I lure people in with a love nobody else could want less.
My love is unconditional unconventional and new
It lingers it never dies it is enough for a few
That's my problem you see everyone falls
They may be done but my love keeps me up until dawn.
And my love may be spoiled by the many souls I feed
But I love without fail for them, for you, I'll always bleed.
Blind
But still so receptive
To her negativity
Shut her out
I try
But she understands
Or so she says
Siren
Bloodletting for her love
Even if it isn't real
Help
I'll see this when I'm sober and probably delete it
Blade so cold so right
Taking a joyride across my body
Silver on white

Shaking hand to guide it
Tears, zips, leather and lace
Crimson escaping fresh slit

Lips, soft, supple, prickly
Unshaven you nuzzle and drink
My blood so desirable and sickly

Stop stop blood clot
Immune system allows you only some
You draw away you've had a lot

Violins in my ears
The room spins and I fall down
No sight takes away fears

I awake, white room, methylated spirits
Doctors tend to my open scars
The feeling is so right
The birth and death of me
The eyes of my mother
My first lover
My first crush
My last
The vital existence of my passions thrive in the seas of such colours
They cut me
They cherish me
They undress me
They caress me
They spit lies
They weave truths
They hold my life ahead
They cool my flames
My existence is many shades of blue
Lapis lazuli and cerulean
Sapphire and aquamarine
The treasures of my past
The colours of my present
The looking glasses to my future
Leave me to breathe and I'll write you poison
Of the darkest roses that bury me in your thoughts
You and I are poets of tormented thorns
This plethora of verbal abuse
Our building blocks for emotion
Gives us the power to captivate the very soul of innocence
And unto darkness we reign
For an eternity
Of true thorns
And a rose by any other name
I think you're cool I think you're sweet
I'll kiss you from your stretchmarks to your feet
Don't close your eyes leave on the light
I want to see you in all your might
So you've got rolls and thighs for days
But sweetie that's the thing that drives me crazy
See you've got everything I don't have
And I'm proud to call you my man
You're the big to my small, the squish to my lean
I'm not calling you chubby to be mean
Just put your hands on me and look me in the eye
I'm going to make you love yourself tonight
The mind commits suicide long before the body does
I just wanted you to know
I hold your hand while you sleep
For I will never let you go
Into your head those nightmares creep
Bright eyed baby I am here
Hold me tight we'll make it through
An eternity without a care
And all the care in the world for you
.
It doesn't matter where you've been
I'm only interested in where you're going.
So you didn't pass in school,
Bad habits look good on you.
I don't want to tell you my life story;
About my past and all its glory
Because we are just middle aged suburban trash
And I want to be where you put out your ash.
Maybe I'm drowning in a daydream
Or maybe I've been asleep a little too long
With my heart set on a girlish fantasy
To the lulling beat of an 80's love song
I'm only set up for disappointment
When I press pause on my MP3
Because reality only leads to resentment
For expecting this idea of love to be bestowed upon me.
I had to get it off my chest
The aching need tearing away
At my heart
The very thought of keeping it from you
Could cause my fickle heart
To explode
I'm not falling
I'm sinking
Into your skin
Deeper
               and
                        deeper
Until I can drown in you
So I gasp
For the air
To say it
I love you
Silk, satin, velvet and lace
Bloomers aghast from raunchy strutting
Down the streets of London
1840
Men would drink arsenic
To be under your thrall
Asphyxiating themselves to be with you
The Colonels daughter
Out at night
Footsteps like raindrops you ditched your pantyhose
For delicious drips on your toes
Your fangs catching the light of the lunar eclipse on full
The hunt is on
There was a boy named Tim
Who had some dodgy friends
Fantabulous by nature
With a few too many loose ends
One day Tim followed them out
He didn't even have to ask
As the two boys bent him over
And ****** him in the ***
Here I lay wide open on the block
Every tear a new scar
Sprawled out and torn apart
You always did tell me to keep my chin up
And so here I lay
On the chopping block
It's Christmas eve but my soul doesn't know it
When I was young I had the spirit
And now Christmas doesn't mean ****
When wind blows strong
And thunder rolls on
I'll hide behind my cinder block
When wars upset me
And the world threatens to get me
I'll hide behind my cinder block
When doors are slammed
And I can't stand
I'll hide behind my cinder block
When days are long
And I refuse to go on
I'll hide behind my cinder block
My hands may be cold
But my heart sure isn't
***** and wine
Leather and lace
Who cares about the time
I just wanna see your face
Arctic Monkeys and Nirvana
Kissing you in the car
Nibbling your ear
Taking me there
When you look at me like that
I burn up like the sun
When you kiss my thighs like that
I think I'm gonna
Come undone
Wind up that music box
Listen to it ****** away
Pass me a mink blanket
And all night I will stay
Play with my hair
What little I have of it
You don't need to do much
Just hold me, come, sit
Pass me a pen and paper
You know the deal
Listen to the music box
It teaches me to feel
Kiss my forehead soft
And stroke my arm slow
For these are the comforters
That help me when I'm **low
It's been years but you still call me your angel
It's been years but you still talk to me the same
It's been years and you've had other girls
Why do you still miss me?
Was it the way I made you feel like you could do anything
Was it the way I giggled when you called me silly
Was it that I'd look at you like you were the only person in the room
Or was it my smile in the morning?
Well whatever it was it must still be here
Why else would you keep coming back to me?
When shy girls lick their lips
When brave men cower
When the astrologists no longer believe
And the world stops rotating
When the clocks quit their ticking
When fingertips stop feeling
When the stars burn out 3 thousand miles away
And you can no longer smile
When denim jeans are all faded
When love letters are all burnt
When glass is shattered
And hearts stop beating
I will still go on
Thinking too deeply hurts too much
Life is a dream!
He liked the way her skin moved
Against the blade of a knife
He would often like to lose himself
In the blueness of her eyes
He would paint her body scarlet
With the blood of her life
He loved so much to watch her
The way she'd jolt and writhe
The blade so finely sharpened
Every incision was precise
He liked to think she giggled
Every time he took a slice
Her flesh was soft and thick
He ate it all, which was nice
And downed it with some cider
And a heaping bowl of rice
In my own space
In my own time
I turn the Wifi on and suddenly...
The world bursts into my face
Fashion! Weddings! Crime!
Could you not?
The door opens and suddenly...
"Do you like my new pants?
What are you doing?
Can I watch you?"
Could you ******* not?
My phone vibrates violently
Message after message
"Y r U ignring me"
"Answr me"
"wanna chat?"
Could you just  not?
Vibrate
Vibrate
Vibrate
vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv
vvvvv­vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv
vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv
Harass me why don't you
Un-friend me while you're at it
Block me for all I care
Just please,
**COULD YOU ******* NOT!
I'm not broken
Stop telling me I am for as much as I know I shouldn't
I might start to believe you
And break my own **** heart again
I see you in my dreams, your face ever changing
But your body is still the same
Taste
Feel
Look
Adore
Something I crave and want to try
Maybe only once
A second hit to make it real
But nonetheless
A one hit wonder of a fantasy
Cry
Cry
What do I do when I'm alone?
Sit in silence..... In my head
Wishing I could sleep when I lie awake in bed
Laugh at a silly word I made up on my own
Think about eating but don't
Wanting to call you but I won't
Shivering as the tears fall
Questioning if it really was worth it all
Rolling over and checking my cell
Watching things that'll send me to hell
Cut myself and the tears stop
Out of bed I hop
To the window I float out and stumble
To the bridge you said you'd jump off
I spit on passing cars
Hanging from the bars
Knowing one day I will die
And then I won't have to
cry.
Oh Jesus loves you?
Bet he can't make you scream
He washed over me like
the warmest wave
Every time he rose to meet me
His skin would lap at my shores
The salty sweet kiss
The ever unfurling lips
An ocean of ecstasy
And waning tide of
release
If words were knives, I'd talk to you more often
If you were my little girl
I'd show you how to be loved so good
He doesn't treat you right
He won't ever love you like I could.
I know you're young little girl
Only 16 years old
With the scars on your wrist and deeper wounds on your soul.
He made you grow up too fast, ****** up your past
Left just as soon as you needed him
But now you're mine little girl
Take my hand let me into your world
I'll fill your void of daddy issues
She is a dangerous woman
Everywhere she goes they fall
I have no chance in hell
We weep far too much
Tears can't mend our broken hearts
Only deaths warm touch
You're lucky I have the time of day
I'm just lucky you bused my way
Because of you I'm a better me
And one day I'll love again, I hope you get to see
You're the best friend anyone wouldn't have the ***** to ask for
No one has the patience to see past your flaws
You're perfectly imperfect in every way
But I'll keep you here, I'd be ******* stupid to throw you away
And so it returns
My oldest friend
Oh how you render me numb
And sad
So ******* sad
I left you behind on purpose
But you don't care
You've caught up to me
And so depression I must bear
You enter the room and embarrass me so
That overwhelming off putting sad face you make me show
You push my friends away
You make me lose sleep
You make me hate my job
You make life bittersweet
You make me lethargic
I'm just so ******* beat
Oh depression my old friend
You will always be my defeat.
I've lost my script
To life
They say there isn't one
Then why am I saying all the wrong things
If there is no right thing to say
How am I getting my steps so wrong
When there is no right way to move
What does getting it wrong
Actually mean
If there is no script to life
And no stages
To go through
....
I've lost my script
I'm going down
You bounce about in peoples faces
Like some kind of advertisement
Flicking your hair about
And beaming through resentment
You are far too pathetic to be considered
An adult or even a responsible creature
You pile makeup high on your lips
The deemed favourite feature
You throw yourself at every man woman and being
And smother them in compliments
They'd never return
In hope that you are everything
They shouldn't be seeing
You could never love again
You are not worthy of the kisses you steal
You cry at night and cut so much
Disappointment is your favourite meal
Please please save yourself
Stop desperately seeking our approval
Lavender and lapis
Cinnamon and coffee
Cigarettes and tantric ***
Acoustic guitar and piano keys
Puddles and missed buses and Mp3 playlists
My highschool years weren't so bad

You're full of it
False hope and limp words
Spilling more than you're worth
I wish I never let you in
Always pulling my hair out
Cutting me with your nails and shouts
You're a mad mess
And I'm a wreck of your creation
The only thing keeping us apart, is a moon and a million miles

No idea
You have no idea this glass princess is shattering
This paper doll is tearing up
She lies in a pool
Of her own suffering
The wounds in her head will never
Heal
She's ice cracking
A rag doll splitting at the seams
You lost her when you stopped noticing
The amount of times she put herself back together
For you
So you could admire her porcelain skin
And glass eyes
Instead you strung her up and struck her heart
With pins
Until the doll became a broken toy
A once beautiful handcrafted love
Used as a blow up *******
And a pretty thing to show off
For your own twisted pleasure
Discarded
She lies in wait
For help
To pick up the pieces
Of her own body
Everything she gave to you
She's ******* now
A bundle of broken shards and rags
Weeping...
Don't hurt me
*No more
It's a diamond from the outside
All polished and gleaming
The cogs look like they're turning
But on the inside they're screaming
We wear our fake smiles
On our fake faces
Behind the closed doors
They're in the wrong places
"Aren't they lovely and kind?"
"Such a gorgeous young family"
But behind the prettiest blinds
The truth can be deadly
The moon has kissed the sea
Now the rats come out to play
Its darker now than it'll ever be
So don't leave me lonely
Please stay
I want you here as much as the moon
Wants to stay awake and meet the sun
In the coldest days of June
Don't leave me now its far too late
To see you off so soon
Please my love it is our fate
Again I beg,
don't leave me lonely...
Its darker and colder
Without you
Don't mind me
Everything is just a little too real
And you're not here for me
Don't fret now
I've gone MIA
My head'll come right
I've been like this since before I was born
So don't mind me
Or my tears
Don't mind at all
Mother told me to get a man as soon as I could
Guess she thought I'd be "unlucky"
So when a man finally came along
I wanted to say
.....
Marry me, he says
It's MY finger
Love me, he says
It's MY feelings
**** me, he says
It's MY ******
Wear this, he says
It's MY body
Be mine, he says
I am MY own person
.....
However I succumbed and married him
Only to have 3 affairs
2 children
and the saddest life in the closet
never able to be my true self.
I should have said all along
No
Don't rush me
.....
I hope I never become this,
It is my biggest fear
Just thought I would share it with all of you
When I die I'm going down
Because I spent my whole life doing it
And feeling it
You can't judge a poem by it's likes and trends
Dropkick they call him
This sweetheart of mine
He's useless, no future
I say give him some time
But time is dwindling for this aching soul
The need for substance to make him feel whole
Rising after noon
Impending doom
I love him I need him he'll be something... Soon
