all my memories
are decaying as we speak
my eyes only register your long lashes
your lips, your teeth
i'm consuming you with my whole being
forgetting I had any other reason to live
synapses spark
vivid images die within me
say you'll be here when I wake up
because I can't deal with the idea of
not being able to remember your face
touch, small little moles on your back
i never want to forget any of that
i don't mind if everything else leaves
i just need some kind of hope
that something we have will last eternally
i'll never be able to remember this moment
more clearly then I see it now
and something in my heart shatters
at the thought beauty can't transcend
the physical limits of the matter in my mind

I am not a book
you can use and return to the shelf
as you please

I am not glass
you can shatter
when your anger overtakes you

I am not a fragile rose
I will not fall apart
at your lack of light


I am a girl with big dreams and high hopes
I will not let you turn me into anything else.
Do not let others belittle you, please.

We danced and shouted on the top of our lungs
We whispered promises while kissing each other's neck
Except I intended to keep mine when I woke up
While you pretended to forget

c.g
Like the Gods we felt mighty,
brave, unafraid
Like the heaven we never worried,
always felt high
Like the humans we are
we met our limits,
disintegrated, and died

As a child I always received pink things
Pink sheets, pink walls, pink bows, pink dolls
But my favorite color was blue
Maybe that's why I kiss you so fervently in dark rooms
Even after countless fights and tears
I'm attracted to the storm clouds above your head
I love all your flaws and fears
White eyes turn red
Pure souls bleed together
Once again I am yours
Let's pretend it's forever
Pressing together  hoping it will never end
Giving kisses that paint me purple
There's no limit to what we will do
Restlessly continuing until we are both black and blue
