Writing eases the pain
It makes me feel less alone
When the words come pouring out
It makes me feel at home

Wish I could write something to bring you back
But those type of words are the ones I lack

Elementary

It’s not as if you were even my best
It just was so effortless....effortless

Poetry is like a deep well
Which your soul leaks ink from

Pheromones

Avoiding interaction
Dying for a distraction
A chemical reaction
Equals fatal attraction

Navigate

You hate it when you feel too deep
You hate when it consumes you
But every time you retreat
Is when I always lose you

telepathy

She lets boys try to read her mind
They see it deep behind her eyes
Dark orbs full of such mystery
Yet you'll never know their history
