the razors were her best friends
the only source of control of the pain she endured.
her hair was falling out
her skin , pale as the snowy grounds of December.
no one ever cared
until they day she wore short sleeves and everyone got scared
they never care until its too late. but then they swore they cared all along.
I hope our love will be like a photograph.
with still smiles and memories that last forever.
this way our love will not end, but be frozen in time
LOVE

I saw an old couple today holding hands

and smiled.
I loved the way they still craved one anothers touch, it made me smile

Hello
I am the rock that was thrown at your window
waking you from your dreams
of the boy who threw me

Let the wind hit me hard enough to pick me up.
Hard enough to make me forget.
Scoop me up.
Drop me low.
And rattle me hard through the air.
Remind me what it's like to really be free.
But don't let me go.
I might never come back.

i like to listen to the silence of the night
because beneath the deafening stillness
and gruelling vagueness that it holds are
the sound of your breathing that i sync with mine
the chuckles you make when i say a bad joke
the rustle of sweet words you mutter to my ear
the disarming roughness of your voice when you talk

i like to listen to the silence of the night
because its warmth is my brief escape from loneliness
and its noise is calm and inviting
and because for a moment, no matter how quick,
silence takes me to you
I love you. I hope you know I do. :(

Blame it on
Your absent father
Your addict mother
Your unexpected children
Blame it on
Anyone, and anything
So you never have to
Take responsibility
For your own actions

It's the whiskey
That hit me
It's my own shards
That tore me apart
It's a malevolent God
That lied about love
'Cause you don't do anything

Blame it on
My fragile psyche
My insecurities
My "impossible" needs
Blame it on
Anyone, and anything
So you never have to
Take responsibility
For what you've done to me

It's the cigarettes
That stole my breath
The weight of my expectations
That broke my trust
The spinning of my own wheels
That drove me into madness
'Cause you don't do anything
Everyone has a **** like this in their life.
I still love you
but unfortunately
I lost my self
in the process
of loving you...
Let me search myself inside your sparkling eyes
for I feel I might be lost there
