I've left my footprints in the sand
Feeling your warmth leave my hand
I stop to soak in what has come and gone
Feeling alone and withdrawn

I'm bombarded by vicious visuals of my living fears
and everything I could ever revere
I'm a glass tank with only one shot
For the pain, I'll give you what I've got

Take me and my lacerated soul
Find the glass that cuts the deepest hole
Just be gentle with your hand
I'm at my most vulnerable and at your command

In return I'll love you to a fault
I'll bath you in my returning light as a result
You save my life every day, with nothing to even say
I even fell in love with myself today

I left my footprints in the sand
And felt the warmth return to my hand
I stop to soak in what has come and gone
Feeling more alive every waking dawn
I wrote this is regards to how my mind operates. It will hit me with what it knows will **** me, than all of a sudden pick me back up, but higher... Sometimes, only to push me down again. It's something I don't even understand.

A faultless poem
inkless, without erasures
written in fixed glances
in agreement
a matchless pact

Each verse, a touch
a breath, a gaze

suddenly, their storm
unleashed
ink runs intense
crimson hearts bleed
bodies collapse

their surrender writes an end
a kiss
their thirst, a perpetual desire
to rewrite with fault
they call it a draft
and find a blank page
Write me a poem, he said. So she takes his hand and...

A wish to get me through the night
Twin flames forever burning bright
Lost souls who've found each other now
Complete in knowledge that somehow
We'll make it through
However hard
We'll grow together
Love unbarred*

I have run out of thread to stitch my wounds.
I wrote this as not all wounds can be healed by such trivial means, something greater must be put forth for it to actually heal.

For you, I will peel back my hearts callused layers.

If my life was to be taken away
                 All I would want my tombstone to say,
knowing this for sure,
                 Is that **"I got to meet her."
The one person who can and ever will know me for me and understand it all at the same time.
