If we were to break, shatter into a thousand fragments - would there be a glue strong enough to repair us again? Would those cracks and missing pieces make us weaker, or will it make us stronger?
Would it force us to hold tighter, to cling to frozen fingertips and cheap heart candy, or will we simply let go?

Let go, because holding on is hard and breaking contact is easy?
Hold on, because its harder than we percieve to just.let.go?

The truth is we can never be irreperably broken, we'll be put together again and again.
We won't notice that each time - we lose a shard, a tiny piece.

And by the time we do - there's a gaping hole through your middle.
The worst part is : you've lost those shards forever and new ones are hard to come across.

So we spend our days - eternally empty.

When I'm lost, I look to you to find me.
When my mind wanders, my thoughts drift to you.

When I'm broken, I seek your arms to scoop my pieces up and glue them together.
My ears are attuned to your voice and it acts as the thread that stitches my frail heart together again.

Your hands are the best kind of distraction even when all they do is join the scattered freckles across my cheeks.

Your lips trail pathways across my scarred arms to a milky way filled with stars and moonlight.

Your eyes are deep oceans that I get lost into every time your nose rubs mine.

You're a wonderland but I'm merely a tourist.

I am jealous of your bed sheets, that gets to know what happened throughout your day
That gets to find out all your secrets at 3 in the morning
And gets to know who the real you is
I am jealous how it gets to listen to your heart beat every night before you go to sleep
Jealous how it gets to listen to all your favourite songs
How it's able to comfort you from the cold, because I wish my embrace could do that
I am jealous how it's able to wipe out all your tears from the bad days you've been having, because I wish I could take away your sadness for you
I am jealous how you look forward to be in your bed every night, because I wish I could be your home that you come to
I am jealous how it's always there for you, even if you didn't need it
Because I just hope that I could be there for you even if I didn't have to
But I can't because you won't let me be there
I am jealous how it brings you comfort & warmth
For how I wish I could be the one to comfort you
Jealous how it gets to tuck you in every night
And how it gets to sleep and be with you whenever you want to
Because I wish so bad to be with you whenever
Mostly I am jealous how it's where you want to be at most times, when you have your dark days
Because I just want you to come to me in the times where you're at your lowest
I am jealous how it knows all your stories, your strengths, weaknesses
Because I just want to be able to know them too
Jealous how it's the most comfortable place to be, because I wish to be your safe haven

I hate it
I hate liking people
I hate being vulnerable
I hate that I want you

I hate that you have power over me
That I don’t want you to
I hate how beautiful you are
I hate your perfect teeth and clumsiness scars
I hate your weirdness
And your awkwardness too

I hate your sarcasm
I hate your adorable laugh
I hate that your voice is cute

I hate how open I am with you
I hate that you are broken
I hate what you have been through
I hate that every piece of me wishes I could help you

I hate your accent
I hate your perfect hair
I hate your caramel skin tone
I hate your lips
I hate that I still want to kiss you

I hate that you are going to read this
Knowing I am speaking of you
No regrets for what I say
All it is is truth

Most of all,
I hate that I have to pretend
I hate that I have to conceal
I hate that I have to become nonchalant to the fact that I feel for you
So I will continue to hate all the things I like about you.
I really do hate liking people. The words are better said than unsaid.
I love you
not because
you're good looking

I love you
not because
you're caring

I love you
not because
you dote on me

I love you
not because
your smiles are sweet

I love you
not in lust
of your crevice
or orifice
or skin

I love you
because
without you
I feel

incomplete within.

I am lost.
Yet,
Something is telling me you are just like me.
Maybe
We were put in the darkness
To find each other.

Pushing Daisies
I sit and watch her bottom lip tremble,
And know that it's my fault.

The pieces that she can't assemble,
Are locked within the vault.

I sit and watch her eyes cloud over,
And have to look away,

She stills calls me her sunshine,
But I blind her with the rain.
She still calls me her sunshine,
Dispite the weathers change.
