The first breath.
The first tear.
The first laugh.
The last good-bye.
Mary Elizabeth May 2013
Blinded.

Faith
***** my brain.

I close my eyes
    And believed.

Left me down
    Naked.

For the world to
    Mock.

But
Blind

I closed my eyes
    And believed.
Mary Elizabeth May 2013
Nothing
    Falls from my eyes
  As you sleep.
Nothing
    Is inside
  When you turn away.

This empty feeling
    That I get
  When you make me feel
Like
Nothing.

Nothing
    What you noticed
  When I push you away.
Nothing
    In my eyes
  That you cannot see.

Can't handle this
    Hollow inside
  When you make me feel
Like
Nothing.

Nothing
    Is what I'm turning to
  Inside.
    As I feel myself
    Drip away.

You're the only one
That can Make me feel
Like
Nothing.

Sleep Tight
  A kiss goodnight.
Laid on the
   Floor.
Tucked in tight.
Love has gone
  To rest this
    Night.
Sleep soundly
   Now.
Air cold.
Embrace.
Sleep soundly
Now.
Your last
   Forever
In this
  Nightmare.
Mary Elizabeth Mar 2013
On a dark and stormy night.
That' how its supposed to be.
right?
When the world fell down
around us.
They say the pain will go away.
Right?
Learning to breath.
Learning to walk.
Learning to live.
All over again.
Left.
Then Right.
In.
Then out.
Right?

Lies.
Tying little knots
    in my eyes.

Paint me in a
   picture.

Is it real...

The laughing girl.
You called it.

The sparkle,
That grin.

Isn't this ironic,
     a joke?

The laughing girl.
Tying little knots
   In my eyes.

VII
Hating in defiance
Of the love that lingers there.
Smile sunny eyes
For the forcast is not fair,
And loath the day you met your rose,
For the thorns have gouged your skin.

Blood and roses
A new perfume
Bottled and ready for sale.

Sell the death in ads.
Pretty blond with protruding bones,
Tell me.
Tell me with your pearly whites.
Yes.
Tell me.
How I will be liked.
To smell of death.

All over you.

Let's save your tears
And drink to life.
Life ended and begun.
Time flies. but moves so slow
Playing catch up with the sun.

The moon so bright
Yes, let's take flight
To the stars and way beyond.
Let's leave this place
And go away
And venture out of sight.

Till time has passed
And blood is dried.
Old wounds will scar again.
The tears are gone.
Your mind is shut.
What feeling do I feel?

The feelings gone.
My throat is dry.
This practice overdone.
The air is numb.
The bed in pain.
Let's sleep and dream away.
