There comes a beautiful point where you let go.
Words become insignificant and blur together like tongues of fire or grains of sand.
People stop being people. They stand idle and demanding  like traffic signs.
Everyday-- always there-- expecting you to understand their stupendous.
Once you've let go of individuality, and embrace all of this,
You'll rub your calloused hands together, now feeling-less from all those years of hanging on.
You'll wrap your mind around your neck like a plain scarf, ready to walk
Out into the freezing insanity that is apathy.
And it'll all be beautiful again.
I take hold of your hand
not wanting to let go
my eyes start to water
beginning to overflow.
I drop down to the ground
I'm now on one knee
you know what's coming
"Will you marry me?"
Now your tears fall
you can't even express
you can barely manage
to say the word yes.
Now the wedding is here
we could hardly wait
to be together forever
twas our fate.
Our lips they lock
after the I do's
it's now time for the honeymoon
6 nights in Peru.
We've been together ten years now
I'm as happy as can be
but my happiness vanishes
when I awake from this dream.
I awake to realize
that I'll never have bliss
I'll be forever alone
with no happiness.

Damaged
You used to make me so excited
Like a little ******* Christmas morning
Smiling. Giddy. Giggling.
The days I knew I'd see you, I would wake up hours earlier so I had more time to get ready.
I had to look good for you.
Hair. Makeup. Clothes.
Everything had to be perfect
because you were perfect.
We were perfect
I'd stay up way past my bedtime thinking about you.
Replaying everything in my head.
Wondering if you were thinking of me.
I would think about your cute dimples, the way you laughed.
The way we could talk for hours about nothing...and everything.
You were perfect for me.
We were perfect
We did stupid things together.
I remember it all.
The snow, the whipped cream, the chotoes, the park.
Cuddling on the boat. Gazing at stars.
Perfect memories I'll never forget.
We were perfect
Then came the goodbye along with all the tears.
You said it was only temporary though.
You said you'd be back for me.
Then the letters started coming along with the phone calls.
I started becoming more okay with the distance, knowing it'd be over soon.
"I love you, I miss you, I cant wait until I come home"
You said all of this, but then left me.
Not even giving me answers, and all I want to know is why?
Because I thought...
*We were perfect
I am the summer rose
Sitting in the sultry sun.
I move when the wind blows.
Other roses? I see none,
I feel I am the only one.

No one smells my sweet scent.
My fragrance goes neglected.
This is not the life I dreamt,
I somehow feel dejected.
The life I had not expected.

I sit in the sun all day.
The buzzing that that bee makes
As it flies my way.
The pollen that it takes
Suddenly causes me to awake.

I realize I am the summer rose
And I'm the symbol for peace, love, and longevity.
My fate was sealed before I arose
Now I see it in clarity.
I was meant to live in simple sincerity.
The Song Of Loneliness Whistles In The Breeze,
Soft And Gentle, Make It End Please,
The Broken Recored Of Misery Repeats Your Name,
Sadly This Record Is Stuck On The Needle,
A High Status Of Fame,
My DNA Entwined With That Of The Divine,
Yet I Am Cold And Alone,
Haunted By Ruthless Demons Nipping At My Nape,
I Sit By A Frigid Glassed Window,
Paned By My Tears Of Pain,
I'm Sick Of Awkward Conversation,
And Honestly I'm Terrified,
Because The Sound Of Your Rhythmic Breathing,
Becoming Closer,
Is Chilling To The Bone,
And I Can Already See Your Face In The Stands,
Because I'm So Broken,
And I Am Distraught,
Because I Can Already Hear The Sound Of,
The Music Of Misery
I wonder if you want me to hate you.
If that was your plan all along.
If you made me feel close to you,
Only to pull the rug out from beneath my feet.

If you told me secrets, you said you’ve never told anyone
So that I would feel special.
If you laughed, when you saw the butterflies explode from my stomach,
Every time you smiled at me or held my hand.

Did you mean it when you called me beautiful?
Or was the blush on my face just another ego booster for you?
When you ran your finger down my cheek
Were you trying to make me weak in the knees?

Was that your plan all along?
To make me weak,
To make me feel like I needed you.
Make me think you needed me too.

Do you look back now and laugh at my foolishness?
My naivety?
At the possible thought that we would ever last
That one day you would love me.

You say you’ve felt pain.
You know I have too.
You said you can’t compare our pains,
But I know you do.

I know you think your pain is worse than mine.
That I will never understand.
But when I tried to help you,
You shut me out.

I think you understand pain,
But you don’t seem to understand compassion.
To you, needing help means you’re weak.
To me, it means you’re strong enough to realize you can’t go through life alone.

That seems to be your problem though.
You can never be alone, be single.
No one remembers a time where you didn’t have a girlfriend.
Inside you believe only a girl can make you happy.

I tried to make you happy.
Not merely as your girlfriend but as your friend.
I still want to be your friend,
But only if you allow me to be.

You can confide in me like you did in the past.
I may not be the person you are in love with,
Who you can trust your heart with.
But I can be the person you can trust with your soul.
If I was a mermaid, would you be my sea?
Salty and warm and cradling me
Across your reefs of beauty and wonder
Within your mystery I would discover
Life in your waves in your sands in your eyes
Loving you always despite the lie
That for forever you'd be my sea
Salty and warm and cradling me
what are lies
do they hold the truth somewhere
do they hide the truth
are they the key to saving a mans sanity

dont lie to me
dont lie to the eastern winds
dont lie to the face in the mirror
you cant hide the truth forever

why do we tell lies
do we hate each other that much
are we common enemies
what the hell is wrong with us

lies bring devastation
they bring exctinction
our death written in the sands
unwritten by the truth

we tell lies as we walk the earth
no man is honest
he walks with a mask on
he tells false stories

he captivates
then erradicates
making you wish you never existed
lies bringing on the shadows

earth is the prise
inherited by demons
hells wrath known to mankind
nothing to save us but the truth

tell more lies
let the truth in this world be unknon
savage and ruthless beings
your blood on thier hands

makes you sick dont it
knowing you got no time
to tell the truth
thats what lies are
realization that your dead either way!
