TERRY REEVES Apr 2016
I REGRET NOT LOVING YOU WHEN YOU WANTED ME TO,
TIME IS PRECIOUS WHATEVER YOU MAY DO,
WE SHOULD HAVE GONE TRAVELLING AT EVERY CHANCE,
IT WAS A PITY SOMETIMES THAT I DIDN'T WANT TO DANCE.

I REGRET GOING AWAY WHEN I SHOLD HAVE STAYED,
THE SILLY THINGS YOU DO WHEN YOU'RE AFRAID,
YOU SHOULD HAVE KEPT GOING, BEEN A MAN,
NOT LIKE THE COMIC BOOK FIGURE OF DESPERATE DAN.

SO MANY TIMES THINGS HAVE GONE YOUR WAY,
BUT TIME IS RUNNING OUT, SO THEY SAY
THAT HOW MANY CHANCES DO YOU NEED BEFORE YOU BLEED,
HOW MANY MISTAKES DO YOU MAKE BEFORE YOU HEED.

THE TIME HAS GONE - I MUST NOW LOOK CAREFULLY AHEAD,
AFTER ALL, I'M **** LUCKY TO STILL BE IN YOUR BED.
hello
its been a while, huh?
Im at home.
Whiling away my day.
Reading her words.
They sting.
They bleed through the paper.
Her last words.
Her last will.
was me.
And yet, she's gone, and i'm here.
****.
Who am i?
i think i should go.
You don't deserve to see me

Mister Sun light my way
You've been away to long
In the dark is where I've stay
Sorrow is my only song
I could use some fun today
But I fear soon I'll be gone

I'm so tired of the tears
I'm so tired of the lies
I'm so tired of the fears
I'm so tired of all the sighs
I'm so tired of all these years

I just want to lay down and quit
I don't want to stay here
I just want to exist
Life is what I fear
It only gives me ****

Cut my wrist, make them bleed
Throw this shity live aside
Swallow these pills so I no longer breath
I just so very much want to die

Internally, unstoppable,

Yet you fail to see me bleed,

Must red stain my clothes and more,

For you to see my need.

It makes the blades of grass
that tickle your sole
feel like a thousand razors;
the raindrops, like prickly thorns.

And what you'll bleed isn't blood,
but bloodstained words
that will blemish
no other sky but yours.

The blade runner,

The blade told me to calm down,
Stop seeing red.
That moment lasted momentarily,
The blade ran across me like an ice skate,
On grooves already used before,
Protruding into the skin and floor,
Momentarily,
As we see red.
Then replaced by new cells,
Or related like ice plains,
Like a new day,
Coincidentally.
Scars remained
and like my palms,
Lifelines that tamed the desires
To be,
Famous,
Or aim for the place where I won't wake up tomorrow.
For the moment has passed
And I'm shattered like glass with tiny pieces of blood drop pouches that decimate the surroundings as they fall to the floor,
I'm sure;
I never asked to be the blade runner.

You could give me all the love I don't deserve.
But if I don't bleed, then you don't win.
To, Rory. i'm unguarded, flesh's soft, pick your spot. make it bleed.

update: I jinxed myself. he did. he won.

Hearts bleed all year round,
Whether it is me, him, or you.
Hearts bleed all year round,
And there is nothing we can do.

We bleed because we live,
And that fact is terrifying.
We bleed because we live.
That is better than dying?

We are punished for existing,
As if the curse of life was our request.
We are punished for existing,
Yet told that we are blessed.
Red as you bleed to death,
Red as you grieve for help.

Foresee the dance of the drunk pen,
On a white forgotten page,
And as the Indian ink has left its charm,
Through poetic swords of faith.
No, she said, to the young heart,
A sad dilemma song,
Drunk with broken words,
He bleed the crusade all along.
The blood has been painted,
Over the pages of art laid thorns,
As number he grew, he faded
Into the delusional walks and pavement songs.
The floors were carpeted red,
Like a heartbreak prom in lights,
While I laid drunk with my thoughts,
Like the dark soul of Broadway nights.
The black colour embracing,
Sweet sadistic vines of hope,
In the illest of fate, my heart sings
Like a mysterious misanthrope.
