See my crazy
My crazy seeps out

And you see it

Don't you?

I just hope it doesn't scare you off too much.

Ring Finger
Ring on my left hand

And I have the audacity to wonder

Do I love you

My heart aches when we fight

And I laugh when you do something silly

But sometimes I'm so unsure

And it makes me angry

No, it makes me feel guilty

Because last time I loved
I was so sure

So completely sure

And here I am

Ring on hand

Climbing into our bed

And wondering...

Is this love?

Gnaw
There's a gnawing in my chest
Whenever we argue
This immense pressure
Like at any moment the fragile pieces of my soul might just shatter
And this feeling stays after the argument
Picking at my every flaw
Waiting for me to bleed
Because tears just weren't good enough
This pressure is only alleviated when I smile again
But who will do that for me?

Past Dreams
I still dream of you sometimes

It's a weird feeling

Waking up with your face imprinted in my head

It's not the you that you've become

But the you I knew when we were young

Young and dancing around the love that would come to grow and die

It's weird to feel a love that has gone and to know it'll never come back.

I'm the fool
You're a fleeting desire

You're here today

But in a few blinks

You'll be gone

How do I pull myself out.

Bridges Fall Down
I jokingly say
I'm gonna jump off a bridge

And you laugh and say you're coming with me

But you don't see how close I am to the edge do you?

Drops of Poison
How do you poison
Even the simplest of acts

With no ill intent you somehow shatter the pieces I've been holding together all day

Then apologize and fain support as if you didn't just tear me apart

How can someone who loves you always be the one who hurts you.

Name
She wrote your name
And wondered why
It just looked so right

She wrote your name and knew, it would never be beside hers

She wrote your name in a dream, and couldn't believe how much she wanted you.

She wrote your name in a dream, and when she awoke she knew, she could never write it again.

Dream betrayal
And I wonder what it means

When I can still taste you

When I wake up

And I wonder why it is

I only dream of you now.

Blushing blanket
My hand under the blanket

As I imagine you

You're smile

You're body

Every touch we've never had

By body tantalizing

Goosebumps everywhere

It's so wrong to think of you

While I lie next to him

But my body

It doesn't care

It's fun just to imagine

I hold in your name as it all collapses

I dare not let him know why it happened so fast.

Will I Say I Do
I love you
But I don't know if I'm in love with you

It breaks my heart
Knowing I could break yours.
They mean the hazel sparkle in your eyes

They mean the way you smile at me

And make me giddy

They mean the way you run your hand through your hair before you show me something

They mean your beauty could **** hearts.

Dear Former Lover
While I can never forget the ecstasy of your body wrapped up in mine, it is not that in which I miss the most. At least, not especially.

More than anything I miss talking to you, words just poured out of me with you. I always told you the truth even if it hurt.

We live these separate worlds now, our love too toxic for this lifetime. But I miss those ears listening to my heart. Always knowing me better than I knew myself.

Shattering sounds
Tell me.

Tell me how.

How do I say it.

How do I tell you.

I'm just not happy anymore.

Change for me
My body aches
Aches for intimacy
Aches for motherhood
Aches for change

I need a new beginning.

Ace
Ace
My heart and body
Are being torn apart

Do I want love
Or love making

I cannot have both

Not from the one I love.

Somewhat compatible
I had loved you for so long

So long it ached with every breath I took

And now years after

All I can agree we had in common

Was great ***.

9 years
Kings have reigned less time
Than the years I spent loving you.
I'm glad it ended 10/4/17

Growth.
I love you

But then

Wall

You're 28

Depending on me

To do basic needs

Turning an arm injury

Into a lifetime of excuses

I don't know what to do

Because there's this boy

Who actually seems like

Just slightly more of a man

And there's you grown

And slightly more childish

And my heart is flustered

And my brain confused

And I just wish you would grow up.

Wince
A kiss so sinfully delicious
That the devil himself
Cannot bare to watch.

More
He loves me more

Why is that such a scary concept for me

Scarier than when I loved you more.

Scarier than loving him back

Why does he love me more?

I remember what it was
I remember
Because it's impossible to forget
That gut wrenching pain
That feeling when you truly think your heart has broken
All the tears cried
And all the short breaths
Not sure if I wanted to breathe at all
Not sure if living without your love was worth it
I remember what it was loving you

It was heartbreak.

Forward
People love to reminisce,
They love to remember high school days

But for me
That's means remembering you

The break ups
And the fights

The love making in hallways

The ditching

The apologies
And broken promises

The lies and mistrust

Remembering isn't always fun, sometimes you remember heartbreak

So when someone tells me to look back and remember

I'll tell them I only look forward.

The upside down
In a parallel universe
We were soulmates.

For Better or Worse
Will you love me as I cry

Will you love me when I can't bare children

Will you love me when I have bad days

Will you love me when I'm snarky

Will you love me when I just want to go home

Will you love me always and forever?

If not, you can surely go.

What Is She
Half of her screams
You are beautiful
The other half screams
You're just a monster

Torn between
The scale
And the diet
The food
And the confidence

Never finding peace.

Tell you
I see you from a distance

I want to say hi

I want to tell you I'm happy

Happy with who I am

Happy with who I love

Happy without you for the first time

I want to tell you I'm happy for you

And that I hope your just as happy

I know if I reach out I might poison what we've both built.

Are you home sick
To her, you were once the whole world
Every day with you was a new adventure

To you, she was your hometown
The one you never left out of fear.

Burn Vulgar
You're the only one who has ever tasted me

And I hope my juices
Have burned your insides.

Record
You're the broken record
That won't stop playing
Even when I get it to stop
The song stays stuck in your head
That's you
Stuck

Trapped in my mind
Emerging subconsciously
When I'm most vulnerable
And all my shields are down.

Evil Love
You still haunt my every nightmare.
I woke up with a pit in my stomach. I'm engaged...but you still disturb my dreams.

Fairy tales
Once upon a time
I fell in love with this man
And this man
Would break promises
Break my heart
But I was sure he was the one
I was blinded by love
I never saw the pain he caused
I loved him so completely
I believed I would never love again
Then one day
I met this other man
And this man
Truly kept his word
He was a dreamer
And no matter the day
Or how untrue it felt
He made sure he called me beautiful
So much so I'd believe him
And this man is the man I intend to spend my life with now
It is possible to love again.
Getting engaged in two weeks

Skin deep
I use to tell myself
You were so good looking
That I should be grateful You would even look at me
Nevermind love me
But these days I realize
I thought you were good looking
And maybe you are
But sweetheart
I'm beautiful in ways that my outer shell will never show
I was good enough for you
I was always good enough
We just weren't meant to be.

Devour
There are so many things I want you to do to my body

Listen to my requests
Please my love
I just want to slip into bliss

Whole
I finally took all the broken pieces of myself
And put them back together.

Don't love ya
I don't love you anymore
And after nine years
That feels remarkable

I don't love you
Just the memories

It took me so much time
But it's so freeing
Letting go
Is peaceful.
I'm happy now. I think you are too. I'm glad we found separate lives after all.

Slow it down
Slow down
Baby slow it down
I can stand here with you
For the rest of my life
And never get tired
Let me just stare
At those hazel eyes
Just a little longer
Just nuzzle into you
A bit more
Baby slow down
I don't want this to end
Stop time for me
I want to enjoy every moment.

Tainted 10w
My blood is tainted
Who poisoned my womb

Planning for Forver.
You're buying my ring
Planning this future
But I'm scared

Scared of being loved
I've never felt this before

No one has ever looked at me

The way you always look at me

You make my whole world right

I spent years
YEARS

Thinking this was impossible

I was in darkness so long

And then you came along
And you changed it all

You're everything I
Always hoped for.
Eric, my love, my savior, my perfect accidental love.

Drop of you
The worst part
Of loving someone so deeply
Is that when it's all over
There's a piece of them in you
Forever
There's always a drop of love
Even if it's mixed with rage.

Haunted by you
You are gone
Or the you that I loved
And yet
I still awake
From dreams
Where you are
Where my heart aches
You see
The you that I loved
He is forever stamped
In my heart
And I've tried
So hard
To erase it
To scratch it out
To forget
But it's no use
I'm haunted by you
Haunted by a you
That was everything to me.
I've moved on. I need dreams to stop interfering.

Fever
Eyes so bright

Dreams so big

Blind me with your love

Hug the patience into me

I don't know how long I can wait.

Name
I still cringe when I meet someone with your name

Your name

Like the slowest poison
It never leaves me

Just slowly eats away

Ah your name

How I wish I could eradicate it from my soul

Where art thou motherhood
Growing up
I was taught
Marriage came first

Growing up
I saw this almost never happened

Growing up
My friends had kids

Growing up
I was told I might never

Growing up
Right this moment

Growing up
Means wiping the tears away and trying anyway

Growing up
Means finding the patience

Growing up
I believed everything I wanted was possible

Growing up
I learned that's not true

Growing up
I learned dreams change
And so do possibilities

Just keep growing
One day you'll be old enough to know it all.

Shadow memories
I fight with him
Something so minor
But it hurts me
And I think it reminds me
Of the way you'd hurt me
Then I can't stop thinking,
Thinking of the last ten years
All those years between you and I
And I think that speaks volumes
Still trying to forget

Lock and Key
Boom boom boom
She knocks on the door of an entity
Shaped like an ***** she long forgot
She hears whispers
Alas no answer

Boom boom boom
She knocks again
The silence from the other side
Ringing in her gentle ears
And she begins to wonder
Will she ever again find the key

Tsunami I love you
You're in my head
You're in my heart

Soon you'll be in my bed

I'm falling
Falling hard and fast
And nothing can catch me

I'm scared to go
And scared to stay

My love is a tsunami
It'll drown you

I'm trying to hold back
Trying to prevent the first waves
From crashing down
On these freshly paved moments

But the water's coming in too fast
There's no draining this flood.
Haven't written in a while... Especially about someone new.

Change me
I always want the wrong people
Always want someone who doesn't want me
How do I constantly do this
Why am I never the one to be loved

How do I change everything about myself because I feel it's my only choice.
Sad today. Feel really unwanted.

First
There is no turning back
There's only you
Poison in my veins.
Hope I can love again

Refresh my life
I hate when I feel lonely
Because I can't stop thinking about you
Can't stop wanting your touch
Can't stop aching at every memory

I hate when all I want is you in my lap
My fingers running through your thick soft hair

I hate when I let myself accept my undying love

I want a new start

I want a new love
I want someone who won't break my heart.
