my soul is in trouble
my challenge is to survive myself
not sure how much pain i can bear
i've got a pretty high thresh hold
but why
does it have to be this way?
emotional wounds it's better to just let them bleed, no? so the hope and the light might have a chance to flood in

just a day
but feels more epically
awful
than many
here i stand
looking at the rubble
of the failure of this thing
this love
you're gone
we're broken
and so am i
heartbreak is here folks, time for a magic carpet ride

It's another flood
The creativity
Oh Lordy
Is there no end?
You had your own idea
Of the finish line
Pulled the rug out from under me
Wow
Life
Sometimes you realize it
Really is too late
And sometimes you don't
I'm writing as short sands on Facebook the recent heartbreak ought to be good for some material...PLEASE tell me how to make some friends because I really need some and I'll be true as one too

The way the stars shined,
The way they filled up the sky
Made it all seem bright

The place they have been
The place of their last sighting
Changes my sorrow

But what about her?
What the stars were, so was she
They're identical

However, I can't.
I simply cannot forget
Simply can't accept

She's gone away now
Gone where I couldn't find her
Where she's out of reach

Now I must accept
That she is a star, shining
But really, isn't.

She was the charming of them all
and to protect her flaws
She grew claws
in her stem.

Keeping away from anyone
who dares to pluck her off the garden,

But He plucked her by the petals
twisting her head out,
brutally.
is there even something as an ugly flower?

Wise beyond words
Is the mutual feeling
Love unto death
At time's cruel pace

Thought after fear
Faith beyond thought

Hunt in wild woods
My cruel heart's spear
That paints the night
With the truth of it's victims

Search for the hour
At last
When all is right
And numb my soul
To extinction
