Turning 22 this month
In eight days
To be exact
Not really in
The party mood as such
People wreck it
In more ways than one
I'd rather just get drunk
And fall asleep on my own
I don't care about parties
Not even birthday shots
All I want is white wine
To have a good time

I got captivated by a smile
Almost nearly ran a mile
Falling wasn't my style
But for you, I'd sacrifice
Me, my heart and I
When you kissed me
I literally smiled
Felt like something
Was going right
In my tragic life
You picked me up
When I was about
To almost drown
In *******

Bricks lay upon you when
You try to love again
It's never easy
To pretend
Like you
Never
Cared

You gave your heart
You gave your heart
Only to be crushed
Burned into ashes

Never did you meet
Such a person
Of interest

You tried to see
The good in love
All you got was
Memories
Heartbreak
And a whole lot
Of pain, so discreet
Yet, it left you weak
Love can be
A beast
Death in
Disguise

Struck up a conversation
Fell into a live situation
Complicated equation

Memories seem to follow me
Makes me wanna believe
That you are in my dreams
You follow me repeatedly
You truly swept me off my feet
You are bittersweet
Perfect and complete
You are everything
I could ever need
You are young and wild
Sweet and crazy fun
With you, I am high
I, I feel alive
Honestly
You're my every
Little piece of me
With you
Is my destiny

keep talking
as I am losing
losing this sanity
you destroy me
emotionally

sticks and stones
break my bones
but your words
cut me in pieces
they bleed me dry
I'm near the sky
on edge of death
are you done yet?

chapter one
we began
chapter two
I lost you, man
chapter three
pled for mercy
chapter four
on the floor
chapter five
I wasn't alive
yet, you smiled
chapter six
you saw death
chapter seven
dragged you from heaven
right down to hell
****** the life
out of your heart
then planned
your funeral
wore a veil
I didn't cry
I smiled
like you did
when I died

I don't miss you
I miss the memories
The smiles and laughter
That you gave me
You're smart
And funny
But you weren't
Made for me
