words come and go
like teenagers
in love
in spite of your
memories, your
private soliloquies
there's a bitter
promise in the
way you say
goodbye;
we are full
of reminders
we wish to forget
you keep bursting
at the seams,
flinging your broken pieces at me
the sun don't shine for us
and the moon just reflects.
the sky is not as endless
as it seems.
replace the ink with blood
and maybe you'll make a
difference
death comes for everyone
from the reader to the writer
even the innocent bystander
i see you in the stars;
in the breeze through
the trees.
i guess i'll keep you alive
in my dreams
love is lost, along
with the one who
created you, who
destroyed you
live a life in color
to fool them
you're alive
live your life alone;
make it alright
in your mind
