A bullet to my heart
Would have sufficed

Sanity is
What tears us apart
Makes us question our wrongs
And what's right from the start

Sanity is
The "moral high ground"
The place we must be
Without it, we drown

Sanity is
The reality we seek
The blunder free life
So trivial, it's weak

Sanity is
An enticing prospect
But now I must locate—
My mind, because I've lost it

My tears will never stop falling.
This hole will never go away.
My love for you will **** me inside;
The same love I hoped would stay.

My dreams will always be of you.
My love will be steadfast.
I know I'm not alone on this.
I know our love will last.

I can no longer be with you, my dear;
This truly eats at my soul.
At once the love I have for you is clear,
It transcends this life and more—

I have a frostbitten heart
Piercing chills run through my veins
Nothing left to warm me
Nothing to take back the pain

I have a frostbitten heart
And I have an inkling as to why
The girl you used to know
Has died, all at once, inside.

Our love
Like a dying star
Burned brightly for too long
Until it slipped away
Into the abyss
Of eternity

Love is a transcending force–beyond this world's bounds it creeps through the crevices of your soul, staining your heart forever.

Love can give you more than you could fathom: joy, happiness, fulfillment. Yet what is so beautifully extraordinary about love, is that it is also capable of the worst kind of soul ripping sorrow unlike any other.

To love, is to make a promise to another, and yourself, to always acknowledge within you to respect the capability of it's power.

It is not something that can be discarded, or forgotten, which is why losing love is a reminder of a reality you never thought possible, or imagined...it is greater, a fleeting reality as sublime as dreams.

I miss your smell. Your smile. Your eyes. I miss the ardent smile you'd give me, in silence. But most of all I miss you, your body next mine, with your heartbeat keeping me alive

I'm stuck in a snowdrift
That you led me to
No place to take shelter
No reason to
I'm stuck in a snowdrift
But you're not by my side
You left me to freeze
You left me to die
I'm stuck in a snowdrift
Memories dance in my mind
I'll be okay my baby
Our love will keep me alive.

To love—
Is to trust someone with matches,
As you play in puddles of fate.

To fully love
You cannot set limits
Or measure your worth
By another's opinions.

To fully love
You cannot doubt
Or be unrealistic
About the time you have together.

To fully love
You must acknowdge
Love is a transfer of two energies
Forever traveling in time,
Until the sparks cross paths again.

You taught me what love is
At such a young age
Now that it's over
I have you to blame

I knew the hurt of my heart strings,
Wasn't all for naught.
For the pain I feel is beautiful;
A soul no longer lost.

I look at the sad, aged rides outside of grocery stores every now and then. It wasn't until recently that I knew why they drew me in so much–they reminded me of my love life. Always too open and available for the ride, with a menial return and reward. Never a soul that got on cared for the old ride, and began to walk past it's haunting exterior. But there's always one boy, that will always ride that ride; over and over and over until he simply runs out of time, or something to provide. But, the joy, in that child's eyes, with his soul soaring high, only for a few moments; that is love. And that is what I will always have to remember.

Your love seeped in my veins
In an everlasting trickle
Creeping up my spine
To the tips of my flesh, it tickles
Visions of us flash
Like a the glorious death of a star
That's been burning bright for too long
You're magical, that way
With a touch of ubiquity
But not for long—
I know you'll always be with me
In this lifetime, and the next to come
Because if you'll settle for forever
Our love can never be undone.

You made me love you
Don't you see?

The trouble with reality is:
To live we must be plugged in
To breathe we need perfume
To function we o.d. on coffee
To love we use "ILY"
The trouble with reality is
That we can't change it at all
For the reality we are living in
Is a house with cyber walls.

Being in love with you has never caused me hurt. I've only ever wanted to be happy, and to share love you deserve. I contemplated how real you were from the very start. You were strong, and confident. A ghost that came from the dark. It wasn't until I was too far invested, that I realized you took my heart. Now I'm left here, staring down the end we both knew was imminent. But the only words that come to my mind: I've loved you, from the beginning.

True longing doesn't come from the head,
It comes from the heart.
In moments of clarity,
Solitude,
And despair.
Longing knows no bounds.
It creeps up on you
And takes hold of your ground.
When you think you have a handle
On your life
It stops by...
For longing extorts your heart
To never say goodbye.

Like a mirage
You enticed me in,
I kept my distance at first
But like always, you win

It wasn't until I was exhausted
Of chasing your mirage
That I opened my eyes wide
And saw nothing but a façade

The triviality of it all
Isn't what I'm chasing after
Because in order to create a mirage
You have to be seeking an answer

I cry
For what's bound to change
I cry
For the many goodbyes
I cry
For the lost girl I was

I smile
For the time I've had
I smile
For those who have touched my soul
I smile
For who I am

You'll never love me
like the sublimity of my dreams.

I was elated today
High on my own demise
Only to realize,
I'm not entirely surprised.
It's you who's brought me back here
To a place I visited once before
It's nothing you could image—
Darker than before.
It's all making sense
And come full circle once more
You saved me from myself
Before this all began
You haven't a clue what you've done
But that's the beauty
We were never planned.

You seem to have mastered
The art of yo-yo-ing hearts.
I doubt you'd say the same
Because to you,
it's a game from the start.

It's a full moon tonight,
My favorite night each month.
Because all the faces hiding in the dark,
Are illuminated at once.

I have not one, but two Hearts
Residing inside my chest.
One is on the brink of falling;
Madly and deeply in love with you.
And the other,
Has one foot,
Precariously out the door.

You are the reason for my madness;
For my sleepless nights alone.
You are the ghost that haunts me,
Bleeding me to my bones.
You are the cure,
I so helplessly seek.
Yet I know from our past,
One taste of you—
Is my defeat.

Once you start to miss me,
I'll be long long gone.
You had your chance to prove it—
With time, you thought wrong.
I wanted many a time to tell you,
But in good conscience
I knew it was just I.
I'm not one to be foolish,
But I simply cannot say goodbye.

I fancied the idea
Of you needing me
Just a few days
Turned into most nights of the week
You showered me with love
And adoration I craved
But the tables have turned
Now you're the one who's sane
Your love is my drug
I could take every night
To drift away to sleep
And greet morning light...

Being your muse is so intoxicating—
I even fool myself.
