Today I let go of someone special
I tried to cling as hard as I can
Just for that person to stay

We argue
We fight
I plead

But when a person wants to leave
They leave with determination
Never looking back
Never in my dreams we end up like this breaking each other up

Mock the way I live,
take the breathe from me.
It's not for you to give
How can this be?

I thought I knew what love was.
but that was just a dream.
I thought I knew what love was...
but things are never as they seem.

Rip my heart out and watch me bleed
I'm here upon the edge of life
you don't know what I need.
This is just too much strife.

I walk around, an empty carcass.
waiting for an end.
They always say life is just.
Just what dear friend?

I don't understand
I can't grasp the concept
someone take my hand
and pull me from these depths.

The depths of dark.
the depths of light.
From a little girl in the park
to an old man with no sight.

Suicidal thoughts racing through my veins
holding fast to nothing
come, lets play their games
Hear the cursed bells ring.

A wedding of sorts
but it's not the same.
The ship pulls into ports
what was his name?

A name of fear
A name or hate
for one so near
the "Heavenly" gate.

So one that once walked in light
is now so far gone
I walk through this forever night
I'm always so alone.

So as I lay down tonight
I say goodbye to you
you have now snuffed the light
you know this to be true.

Mock the way I live
take the life from me
it's not in you to give
you were the ones who let this be!

i find it funny
how often i speak of love
when i myself
don't quite know what it is
and don't quite know what the difference is
between romance
and romanticised.

peach, crimson, lilac, honey,
when the sun shines,
every colour disintegrates on your face,
I become a mirror for you,
I can read your face so clear.
your brown eyes tinged with a twinkle,
I can see your dreams so clear.

and when you smile so radiant,
I swear, we are infinite.
our skin is made up of so many colours, so is the mirror. maybe that's why our face is the mirror to our soul.

These are ways unique;
no other travels quite the same
but a flavour here and there can be shared.

I feel like a storm.
Powerful, striking and dark,
but also afraid.

you think attention is love,
that's why you suffer so deeply.

Today I learned
The sky isn't blue
It's red, yellow, orange
Green and purple too
It's just that we are
Too blind to recognize
The kaleidoscope of colors
Right before our eyes

I'll Return

It's been said,
If you love something
Let it go

So you did
And I'm free,

But I'll return
Knowing

You love me
