I drown in memories of you
I choke on the last breath you drew
Sinking down to the surface
Your words travel down my throat
Gargling, bubbling, spitting
Until I’m consumed by grief
I get paper cut from pictures of you
Your embrace sinking into my skin
Traveling through my bloodstream
Until my engine runs on the loss of you
Browning said “your ghost will walk”
But yours roams the corridors of my shattered heart
One day, your name won’t give me a headache
But until then
Rest in peace

I’m not that perfect girl
who never does much wrong
I lie I spite I hurt I hide
you’d run if you were strong
I never think for others
Doing things for my gain
In this world all you have is you
You’ve got to hide the pain
So I wear my mask of evil
To keep you from the truth
Deep inside its pain and hurt
Beyond this mask is proof
My heart it bleeds despair
My brain it makes me ache
My body it fights back with them
But still I will not break
See distance keeps me sane
To keep my soul from crying
As long as my mask is always firm
You will never know I’m dying

Dance with me
Into the night
With not a thought
Or doubt in sight
Sing with me
Till our lungs bleed
We’re drunk on notes
I’ll take the lead
Love with me
I’ll do it well
It’s only you
Your warmth , your smell
Die with me
The very end
Our hearts fulfilled
Our souls will blend

I wrote poems that didn’t make sense
Sad words tangled in innocence
Words trapped in paper , lost in time
Locked up for committing the most beautiful crime
My pencil sings on paper
Goes skiing on the purest of snow
I can **** words with my eraser
Leaving no trace, nobody will know
My words leave their whispers behind
On show for people to read
Some are sad , some are kind
Read them at your own speed

Grey skies
The bleak end
White lies
They’re all pretend

Out of bed but not awake
It’s in my head and hard to take
I can’t see colour
All black and white
One pain after another
I want to see the light
The demons have won
Hiding under my bed
The demons have won
The battle within my head
I’m tried and drained
Wired and tamed
It’s time i refrained
From this sad life
