Even I can’t deny it
That millions
Perhaps billions of
Years ago

Your moon tried to save
My sun
From going into a
Black hole

And you held onto me
As brave
&
Courageous
As you are now

‘I won’t let you go...’
But it was too much
Your fingertips
To hold onto

&
Millions
Perhaps billions of years ago
We said we’d meet again
Someday
Somehow
&
Our moons
&
Our suns
Exploded into a trillion
Different particles
Into space

Making their way into the waters
Into the trees
Submerged
&
Buried
For another million years

My heart recognized you
The moment I saw you
My sun knew
You were the moon
That collided
Millions
Perhaps
Billions
Of years ago
In front of that black hole
That dispersed us
To now

It’s time to make our own
Nebula

Where stars are born

You make every day feel like
The First Warm Day of
Kindergarten

Swinging on the swings
With your pigtails
&
Me so shy with my big bangs
&
Corduroy pants
&
I steal a quarter in my mamas
Purse
So I can buy you a chocolate milk
&
You hold my hand
So close to me
&
Some of my old lovers might
Read this
&
Think
‘Oh he’s talking about me...’
No
She knows who she is
She’s
The one with the chocolate milk
In her hand
&
My love in her

All Alone

It is in this room full of souls
That I lie alone in the dark
It is in this room full of love
That that I feel nothing but  
Loneliness
  
Velvety roses, bathed in a crimson flow
Still, I lie alone in the dark
Blurry eyes, endless weeping, and broken hearts
And my soul feels nothing just
Loneliness
  
Empty heart never to be hurt again
Still, I lie alone in the dark
Sanguine rivers turn to powdery dust
And the eyes show nothing but  
Loneliness
  
Final goodbyes and fresh earth
And finally I'm alone
Nothing but memories and broken hearts
Lonliness

I Let you right click my heart
And i gave you all the  options
You could have saved me
But you hit the "send to" button
And sent me away in a flash
We are all fools of love sometimes
Your eyes are my night sky;
Eyes like stars
Stars that shine brighter than a burning fire.

I get lost in your eyes,
Yet stars give direction
Directions to your heart.

‪My taste changes
From the songs i choose
To the shoes i wear
From the colors i pick
To the books i read
From the clothes i wear
To the words i speak
From the way i move
To the way i respond
From the way i care
To the way i love

Everything changes because of you.
Your influence Fuels my spirit and energize my soul.

How does one go upon forgiving
something they never faced?
Avoidance is a forbidden fruit that yields
only bitter aftertaste.
Do we mislead to be okay,
just to elude the debates?
Do we ignore the pain,
just to keep up the harmonious masquerades?
And these contradictions we face:
Of loving someone so much we
disregard our own aches,
even when they are those causal to this fate.
This is a forgiveness we do not create,
this is remembering what we cannot erase.

My name is Erin
and i was *****
at the age of 7

it has taken me
14 years of my life
for those 13 words to escape
my hollow mouth

the only questions i come to now
is why
why lock me in that room
why take everything from me
my innocence
my purity
my childhood

in that room
where my family trusted you
where i trusted you
the night terrors i have to this day
still haunt my mind

like a never ending
drive in movie that plays
over
and
over
only the moon in the night sky
isnt made to be found here
there is no light in these terrors

i cant sleep this time of year
because every time i do
its you
in that room
locking the door
shutting the windows
******* me
yelling at me
every single night
i close my eyes

it has taken me 14 years
to accept the fact that i was taken by you
i have been numb ever since
left in the dust
rotting away at the core
thinking i was nothing
thinking i deserved nothing
because you took everything

but not anymore
i will recover from this
i am strong enough
i believe in myself
i believe in my own happiness
and i promsie
that when i have children one day
i will never ever let them rot at the core
i will find happiness
the darkness will not take over this time
