Cry.
I can't spill out my tears.
Breathe.
My lungs have given up.
Love.
I am numb.
Smile.
It brings pain to my face.
Scream.
Nothing comes out but air.
Pray.
I don't believe anymore.
Speak.
My words are hidden beneath the lies I voice.
Feel.
There's nothing to touch.
Run.
I cannot leave them.
Die.**
No.

Numbness how did you come to hold,
So strong a grasp that's crushed my soul?
How did you rob me, strong and vain,
and now you linger where once was pain,
Like Fire raging without control,
How dare you spread and steal my soul
What right have you in me reside,
Now void of passion, love, and pride?
And day by day I feel you grow,
my feelings lost and memories go
At least with pain, struggle, and strife,
they serve reminders as part of life,
But now you stay,I feel no more,
And without feeling, Life is bore.

I Am

I am only soft for you.
I am only warm for you.
I am only beautiful for you.
I am only better for you.
I am only happy for you.
I am only proud for you.
I am only strong for you.
I am only alive for you.
And I am only here for you.
I want someone to say
"I got lost inside of her,
and I don't want to find my way"

I want someone to say
"Her eyes stole my soul,
I don't want it back"

I want some one to say
"Her mouth ate me whole,
I don't want to be spit out"

I want someone to say
"Her hands captured my body,
I don't want to be let go"

I close my eyes hoping to see something better
Lights shine through my lids
Each bringing back
It's own unique memory
The more I see
the more I notice
I am but a hollow shell
Constructed of old memories

Loneliness is like a whisper
Constantly humming in your ear
Telling you what you cannot tell yourself
Even when you think it's gone, never to return
It comes back in the dead of night
When you least expect it,
When you are most vulnerable
Striking as merciless as a bullet on impact.
I need
I breathe
I love
You leave
I cry
I die
I care
You lie
I wake up
You put on your make up
And everything's just fine

"I want to write, and want to speak. I want to cook, and want to eat. I want to laugh, and want to love. I want to live, and want to hug. I want to learn, and want to grow. I want to wonder, want to know. I want so much I can't attain, but have so much I shan't complain. I'm grateful for my circumstance, and work toward inventive advance. I struggle in my mind's chamber, tell myself it's human nature. I wander time in reflection, estimate my souls complexion. Answers can be found with patience, thoughts I love are in quotations. Absorbing what your able to, grants knowledge to enable you. So live, laugh, love, learn, grow and eat, until your life is obsolete."
