.
he says she can read through a person's eyes .
I wonder ifhe sees through mine ?

Leaving the sorrow , the pain , the wounds , the heartache and tears I've only shed yesterday .
Would he be able to see the lust or what they call love ?

I know my eyes will look away when he looks into them ,
My heart beats will race ,
And my blood will rush through my veins ,
But will he still be able to tell ?
Or will I be able to tell?

Last night ,
I smoked my first cigarette .
like a newborn holding his first milk bottle ,
I didn't know how to hold it right.

I did it in hopes to forget ,
erase the memories ,
burn them
by filling my lungs with smoke
just the way you breathed your love into me.

As I let the fumes escape through my lips,
an illusion of you formed in front of me .
but soon the smoke scatters to air.

I thought I smoked your memory away ,
but  I left with a smell that will remind me
of my failing attempts .

Like an ocean wave
She approaches and leaves
Her stay never fulfills my crave
when she's gone
I know it won't be long
Cause like the wave
she approaches and leaves .

How about
We play pretend
You pretend that I'm not there
And I'll pretend you're all I own
You Pretend that I'm just a friend
And I'll Pretend you're everything else
We'll pretend that I wake up to see your eyes
And I'll pretend that I sleep in your arms
Let's pretend that you're you
And I'll pretend I'm me
Playing pretend with you

In a bubble
She crosses halls
Mingles silently
Walks up the curb
And down
She captures eyes
Barely the hearts of the observants
Not a single hiss,
Not a mutter nor a shrug
And she walks away leaving their eyes with nothing
Nothing to look at
But she leaves my heart
Hanging a few inches above ground .
Gravity has no hand in this
Only she does.

I don't get the butterflies you get in your stomach when in love cause what I feel are razors being shuffled up inside. How come love feels right to you? It's not ...
It's a case where you hand your beloved a knife ,
A gun ,
A weapon ,
And point it at yourself.

It is suicide
Beautifully embellished .
