i told myself
not to fall in love,
never to fall
in love.

but then you cupped
my hands,
my freezing hands,
against you,
and breathed warm air
into them.

you brushed
my hair out of my
eyes and looked into
them like you were
looking for pieces
of my shattered soul.

your thumbs traced
over my lip lines
and yours curled
into a smile.

you kept me warm
with just your arms,
and your lips
pressed against
my cheek.

and for a moment,
we were one,
and i let myself
fall.

and in the morning,
you were gone,
and i was reminded
of why i couldn’t let
myself fall
in the first place.

i hoped when the sun
finally showed its face
we would be okay again

the light still hurt my eyes
my skin still soaked in its rays
but i can’t say your name

the crater in my chest cavity
has expanded so wide
i think the sun itself could fit

maybe when all the light
shines through me
you’ll find me again

Cuts heal & remain visible
At times you may not even feel kissable.
Latch on to faith.
in the line you're last so that it lasts, just wait.
truth hurts, but lies don't heal.
is it still a sin if it's your heart I intend to steal?
I'll gladly bite the fruit for you
you badly fight the truth, poor you.
Accept the pain, welcome the deceite.
To let them continue to hurt you is to accept defeat.
Stare at the angel in the mirror.
Release past demons & be born again purer.
you feel damaged. I see a soul seasoned.
It's usually the pains in life that come with the heaviest reasons.
stress no longer, ache no more.
Pack up the tears, & walk out the door.
One day you wake up & your hearts no longer sore.
I know this because ever since I've laid eyes on you, mines aches no more.

Bright ideas but I like my room dark, So when I start thinking I disturb my own comfort zone.
