Sipping coffee,
A break from the books,
Coldplay's Gravity playing on loop,
Peacefully lonesome,
Read a Rumi quote, "don't feel lonely, the whole universe is inside you",
Last sip of coffee,
Didn't find you inside,
Oh wait, you're there,
Just a little deeper
Said I'd love you darling.
For ever and a day.
I say your honour" I love you,"
But you never knew I lied.
I smiled as I knelt and I knelt as I smiled.
I called you sir.
You called me milady.
You ran your fingers through my hair.
You teased my hair as I teased you too.

You stood in full attention.
That I shall not mention.
As I licked, I liked.
In passion's throes.
I told you I loved you.
The only thing you never knew was that my passionate cries.
Were merely lies.
Love died long ago.
You sir, you will never know.

If I could just see through your eyes

I'd see right past the lies and disguises

You show to the outside world.

I'd peel away the mask you wear

I'd see past all the wear and tear

The world has thrown at you.

If I could see through your eyes

I'd see you.
Heaven is around her
If she only knew just how beautiful she was
Maybe she would've never felt like a blur
If she only knew just how sorry I was
Maybe then she would live again
Instead I wallow in all things we could've been
I can't live like this

i swirl in van gogh.
i am charcoal stains
on blue,
a smile of barbed wire
for the painter,
i am mona lisa, true.

monet, he paints me
calm waters,
water lilies floating
in solitude,
he doesn't see
the fire sprouting
in my veins.

picasso cannot stain
my heart with colour,
magritte cannot
create a masterpiece
out of my eyes.

to be immortalized
i beg in pink
lick the brush
and paint myself
alive.

end my days
in escher,
sketch myself
out of the stairway,
into the globe.

throw myself
at deaths eye,
kiss the canvas
rotten, ******,
*pretty.
