Mr Himel
You make me do crazy things
But you hardly even know me
I can do anything for you
For the love that you show me

I will make you smile everyday
That you won't feel any bored
I will take you to a journey
That you will love the road
I like to read your comments.

And a man once said to a woman:

Make me your love,
a jewel in your collarbone,
some earrings of gold
in your earlobes, or
precious diamonds
in your fingers.

So I may be exposed.
Shown to the world,
as you wear me daily.

And the woman replied to him:

to be diamonds you must first be coal
then undergo
a lot of pressure

to be jewels
you must be ready
to experience
a change of mental and physical state

one that'll prepare you
to be
the kind of jewel
that I
would wear

I shouldn't have told you
The things I worried about.

I shouldn't have told you
The worst fears I had.

I shouldn't have told you
I was afraid to lose you.

I shouldn't have told you
How I felt about myself.

I shouldn't have trusted you
Not to pull the trigger on my heart.

I should have written poetry.
Maybe then you would have stayed.
They say time heals all wounds. If only it would heal mine

there is sincerity in the distance between us. i think i owe you an apology. you keep me at arms length only because i asked you to, yet all i want is to bathe in your presence like i owe you something. to follow the lines of your lips with words unspoken. "death to a saint," you will tell me, "this is not you." i will kiss away your remaining sanctity, like light kisses away dark depths of forgotten i miss you's and the sound of your pleas — they sound a lot like "tell me something good to get me by."
I knew falling in love with you
Will only be another mistake
It is something stupid to do
A stupid decision that I made
Falling for you was easy
It was never that hard
You took something from me
You came in and took my heart
I thought my heart was shackled
But it all broke when you came in
Now I follow you like a shadow
Wandering with you in the night
But you won't notice me
Because you are happy
With somebody else
never look to be clothed
by the one who sat there
and watched you freeze

If beauty is skin deep,
the secrets that you keep
show all your pains
like the blue of your veins.

Salt tears to the ocean.
You hide your emotion.
He's already gone,
let him fade with the dawn.

These secrets and lies
haven't been very wise,
you broke everyone's hearts
trying to keep them apart.

The things you avoid,
see all that they destroyed.
Ruined life with your death,
took the air from his breath.
