 Jan 2019 the black rose
stranger
How is it that
everyone
Is so good at
destroying themselves
?
We're all so good at ruining our own life
i slept all day
now i'll stare at my ceiling all night

our love is a game
an everlasting war
that we can never win
for we are afraid
of caring too much
so we hide
and we quiet
it is a game
we are bound to lose

pretty girl,
beware,
the boys are out to get you
they'll take away your flower
they want what's only yours

pretty girl,
blossom slowly,
stay in your cocoon for now
for summer can only last so long
and soon it will be over

you know,
I never mean to think about you,
not this often anyway,
but you appear in my mind like a broken record,
as if you never really left,
the lines of our last verse remain unfinished,
and it haunts me everyday,
because you are a song I can never forget,
you are the words I will always remember,
the melody that surrounds my heart at all times
-
you know,
I never mean to think about you,
but somehow you are still here,
in my head, in my mind, in my heart
you just are an unforgettable song

Let my silence teach you

what my words

did not
This year, do not explain yourself (especially repeatedly) to someone who does not listen. Let your silence be your response. Let your happiness be your response. Let your peace be your authenticity.
your love runs dry
it always rains
you’re the reason
for my worst days
the blues I choose
the shades of gray
you paint the sky
on my darkest days
I hate you most
but I hate the way
you’re still the sun
on my perfect days
