Call Me Satan
One simple name,
you had called her.
You didn't have a reason to,
nor do you care.

That simple name,
scarred her innocent heart.
She believes it is true,
lets it tear her apart.

One simple name,
it was funny at the time.
It was only a joke,
you didn't commit a crime?

I'll tell you a secret,
I hope you can keep.
She's sick after every meal,
and cries herself to sleep.

She's given up food,
she's given up hope.
She's finding it hard to breathe,
she's finding it hard to cope.

"You're so  
fat."
is what her bully said.
That simple name*,
is the reason she's now *dead
.

bones
Old Bones
planted
in a
crooked
straight line
watered
with the tears
of Sycamore
trees,
headstones
bend
under the
weight
of time
letters slowly
falling like
leaves

I tried to be what you wanted,
I tried to be there.
I'm sorry that I wasn't enough for you,
i'll try harder next time.
I guess I am done trying,
because I feel like your heart is with her.
Maybe I am wrong,
but you never gave me reason to think otherwise.
Every song I hear reminds me of you,
and all I can seem to do is fight back tears.
But I am done fighting,
because I know you gave up long ago...

Some people say you can't rely on anyone but yourself,
Some people say no trust is to be earned.

Though,
What they don't realize is that your shadow is always there.
You may not see it, you may not even notice,
But he is there.
He is with you through it all.
He keeps you grounded and in control.

Your Shadow,

Is ALWAYS one step behind you in everything you do.

Its a pain to be in love with someone who you never expected to love.
That person being the opposite of what you expected to fall for.
It is even worse when things with that person change,
And you only seem appealing at the expense of his liver.
Am i only attractive to a drunken fool?
Or is that when his true, hidden feelings emerge?
The love that I have for him lasts through all things.
But the only time his eye is on me,
Is after he is at the bottom of the bottle.
Yet,
It is an amazing feeling he radiates at such moments...

People often tell me to walk away,
And they often tell me you aren't good enough,
But they do not know you.
They do not know the side of you I see,
The side I fell in love with.
I just want them to be able to see you as I see you.
To realize how truly amazing you are.
And how truly amazing you make me feel I have become.
You have seen me through rose-colored glasses at one point,
You make me feel as though I am a bluebird trapped in the body of a girl,
Like I am actually meant to fly.
You make me feel as if the clouds are merely a moment away,
Even though we are miles apart.
You will always have my love and they will not tear us apart.

How could you?

How could you possibly leave me
in the time I need you most...
Can you not see the hole in my chest
that I am trying so desperately to hide?

I just wish you would realize the importance
that you have in my life.

Please,
just come back to me...

I know I'm not perfect,
but for you I try my best.

I know I'm not the only one out there,
but I am willing to be your only one.

People may seem against us,
but *** I'm not going anywhere.

I don't know where this road is taking us,
but I do know that I will be here through it all.

Through every tear and laugh.
I will be here through it all.
