At War
Nicole Oliver Sep 2015
I don't know what I could write
To try and make it through the night
I don’t know what words I could say
To make it through the everlasting day
Though the swords you wield against me never stay
They multiply too quickly and come at me every way
Through all your daggers my shield has been broken
As I fight to try to say the words left unspoken
I feel as though these words will haunt me forevermore
Until I choose to push you away and close the door
And that will be the end of us being at war

Be Known
Nicole Oliver Sep 2015
As the blinding flash reflects in her eyes

They tell the story of a coming sadness

The darkness that has taken root in her heart

Demands to be heard

Demands to be felt

Demands to be known

Nothing Will Remain
Nicole Oliver Sep 2015
I can see the glimmer in your eyes when you lie
I can see the smirk on your face when they fall
I can hear your heart racee when they believe
I can hear the sound of your laugh when you suceed
You may fool them but you can't fool me
I'm a better you than you want me to be
I've been the real you
The one who exists only behind closed doors
Who you are when around nobody else
A person who hides behind lies
And feed off of others despair
The one who manipulates everybody
Because she has never truly cared
And maybe I still am
Maybe she never left
But I know from myself
Once she's gone
You still have nothing left

— The End —
