What was that sound?
A silent slice of hell
I didn't know what it was
Just wishing for you to be well

A thousand reasons
I could tell myself
To walk away and let it be
But those reasons were not enough

Not enough for me...

Shatters and pieces
All that I see
A lunatic form of weather
A hurricane within

Silently I stand beside you
Knowing its all meant to be
For me to be your pillar
If you ever need me

It was a broken thing
A music of tears and misery
Something I never wanted for you
No matter where you may be

Come here
Let me play you another melody
One that could bring out that smile again
Possibly, carefully, tenderly
*My heart's symphony...
When you choose to care for a person, 
you can never really stop caring.
Can you?

Your heart it breaks
in the night a dog barks

the dead bird
breathe me in
my bittersweet taste
encompasses your tongue
the memory
of me
lingers
on your tastebuds
crave me again
crave me always

breathe me out
exhale
as I pleasure myself
I arch my back
inside the curls
of your white smoke clouds
enchanting you
to have more of me
begging you
to play with me again

I am the best
you'll ever have
I'll send waves
of *******
throughout your being
more than anyone else
without me
the *** will always be a bore
I am your delight
the tighter my hold on you
the more you need it

I'll never leave you
my body is yours
you couldn't get away
even
if you wanted to

All she ever wanted
Was for him to shout "love" from the rooftops.
For him to take pride in
Giving her something to be proud of.
She deserved it,
To be shown off and held closely
Like the feast of flowers that she is.
For all the world to know that she is,
His goddess.

your words spill like hot coffee across the table
with every syllable and touch of the tongue against your palate
i am still not used to how clouded your mind is
you often forget that i exist as a person with emotion,
a person with scars that can gradually reopen
i realized throughout the days that you barely know the little things,
like my favorite color, the reason behind my smiles and the passion
that i've grown used to hiding
you forget to question the reason behind my tears,
you forget to hold me when i'm surrounded by all these fears,
but i guess i've gotten used to knowing
that your words can't always fix what's broken inside

you say that i know nothing
but with every sweep of your broom,
with every wipe of your cloth
against the corners that have slowly started to collect dust
you bury me under what used to be a colossal of a heart
i try to suffice this cup with a love-filled gesture,
a written letter, an explanation to why i am an apparent disappointment
but nothing will ever be enough

you say that i know nothing
but to rely on the people around me
you say that i can't cook to please,
that i can't fix things and that i'm clueless on how to live this life
that has been given to me
that my hands are too weak to hold the stirring wheel
that my skin is too soft and easily grazed
that i can't satisfy a husband if needed be

so i'm sorry and that i know nothing
but to observe life from a far away distance
that i've been too busy trying to fix my mistakes
instead of cleaning the messes i leave behind
i'm sorry for being a lousy driver
for as my weak hands have to offer
only comfort and guidance to the people i love the most
i'm sorry for clinging to my own perspective of wisdom
instead of working towards the outcome,
for leaving the dishes as they towered one on top of the other
i'm sorry for being human, and for being a daughter
that has not passed your expections
for being the one that knows nothing more
but to cherish the hands meant for reaching places instead of bed sheets
meant for adventure, instead of suffering

i'm sorry for living

I feel like the world matters nothing
If I don't have you.

I feel like the Earth is swallowing me
Because I'm falling for you.

I feel like the stars stare sadly at me
As I think about you.

I feel like the Sun is burning me
Intentionally
Because it knows
I'm vulnerable without you.

I feel like I want
A knife to stab me
All this time
Because I'm dying
Every second I'm missing you.
For you and only you.
