you're the moon;

every night
even during the day
no matter what state
you are currently in
you are beautiful
to the entire world

you may not believe this
because you eyes
are like the lens
of a ******* smartphone

something that just cannot capture
the amount of beauty
but that doesn't mean
it's not there

i can't

i have words in my mouth
but i can't seem to speak
i have tears in my eyes
but i can't seem to cry
i have a cigarette in my hand
but i can't seem to smoke
i have alcohol in my glass
but i can't seem to drink
i have fingers down my throat
but i can't seem to purge
i have blades on my skin
but i can't seem to tear
i have pills on my tongue
but i can't seem to swallow
i have suicide on my mind
but i can't seem to commit

unfinished

i'll tell you my secrets
    you'll tell me a lie
i'll begin to trust you
    you'll sigh
         and say good
                                 b
                                     y

morning cries

autumn leaves
stand in the morning dew
surrounded by the misty breath
of the early birds

who sing their sorrows
whilst the leaves
          the tears
d
     r
   i
        p

from the trees
        the eyes
of nature's creation

opposites

your black
  may be my white
    your dark
      may be my light
       your ****
         may be my flower
           your sweet
          may be my sour
         your wet
       may be my dry
    your smile
may be my cry

happiness

i want to die
for lots of reasons
one of which
is to find happiness
because, well
nothing lasts forever

but
death is forever
and i guess
happiness
will be
too

death

crash
the walls around me
the floors beneath me
the sky above me
my ribcage with each breath
my heart with each beat

my life without you

crash
no seatbelt
no safety net
no rope holding me;
to you

crash
collapse

my life is now
over
