If I had a dollar
for every time you made me smile
I'd only have a dollar
because that one smile
is still going strong

every night i softly cry
eat an apple, hope to die
you've left me here, so red and flushed
im waiting for you, but i feel rushed
the bleeding heart slips from my grasp
i run to catch it in a dash
but only you can break its fall
and as it hits, I slowly crawl
to you.
adieu.
goodbye,
sweet lie.

i wanna love you when the faces stare
and love you when there are no faces around.
i wanna feel your embrace
and feel you nipping soft purple spots on my neck.
i wanna smile for you
and cry for you.
i wanna break down my walls
and piece togerther your heart.
i wanna hold your hand
and hold your love.
i honestly dont know who i wrote this about but i got inspired so here ya go ig

a hand to hold
sounds so precious
as i lay
in an empty bed
with a full heart
waiting
for someone
to take my hand
my brain overflows
with the thoughts of one
but i dare not tip the glass
for the fear of a spill
overrules the aching
and as it drips
i grasp
for a hand
which doesn't exist
i believe in
love at first sight
because it's the only love
my lonely eyes
can create
a big planet
full of people
and my hand
stays vacant
it's so hard
to say you've never
made contact
with another humans lips
in an unconditional
heartfelt
symbolic
embrace
why
is the only question
i can ask
that will never have an answer
and i have yet
to see a change in that
but i guess
it's for the best
because my weakness
takes over my confidence
and ruins it all
and so i lay
in the empty bed
hand outstretched
waiting
for
touch
love
acceptance
belonging
happines­s
sorry that this is so many lines. i just like writing that way.

I had a dream last night.
You were there.
Right next to me.
And then you said,
“You know the feeling?”
And I asked,
with a feeling in my gut
that I couldn’t forget,
“which one?”
And you whispered,
“You know the feeling you get
when you love someone?”

And then I woke up.
My eyes flew open.
My arms reaching for you.
But you weren’t there.
No.
You never were.

I find myself drowning in a sea of broken glass and shattered dreams
The waves they crash with a foam of ash
I am stuck in the riptide of you, starry-eyed
You took the breath from my lungs with only a look
But now the water rushes in leaving me to endure
What the rocks have destroyed- what I could not avoid
The truth is gone and free and too uncouth
The one wave that left me like a hit-and-run
And I want to hope all the pain I felt was in vain
I shouldn’t have to be ready to hold myself steady
When I find myself drowning in a sea of broken glass and shattered dreams
Drowning in a sea of you and me
Composed as I was thousand of miles away from an ocean.
