Axion Prelude Mar 2020
You found peace among the storm
I sought blindly in the distance
Once, our eyes met; no more
Forlorn, begotten, but misplaced
Regret is my eternal lover
We will never be that sultry fate
One missed opportunity at a time, I disgrace my life through incessant mistakes which rue the chance, lost to misguided nature and abhorrent misreprepresentation.

A prisoner to the mistakes and judgment of others, my heart wilts fervently, and forever now.

I lost.
CallMeVenus Mar 2020
Days have melted into nights
Nights into nothingness
Nothingness into unlimited infinities
Infinities shift to possibilities
Possibilities give birth to chances I never seem to take
Chances transform to regrets
Regrets end up with nosebleeds.
What I'm trying to say is that
I wonder a lot
And it appears that it has often led me off of the road
I found beauty but I also found a place where Color goes to die.

I can't keep trying to make you love me
I'm so tired
It's like a job and I'm not even getting paid

I do everything to make you happy
I do everything to please you
I've changed myself completly
For you

You make me feel like I'm

w o r t h l e s s

You say you care
You ask for another chance
You say that you'll change
You say that you need me

And what do I do?

S t a y

I'll never get away from you.

I’ll give you undeserved second chances
I’ll give you my tears when you give me yours
I’ll be the one happy for your victories
I’ll be the one grateful for your scars
I’ll let you set the pace
I’ll let you know if anything changes
I’ll make you a believer
I’ll make better mistakes tomorrow
You’ll want me on your team

Here’s for your calloused heart,
the one you endured to have,
Here’s for the stories
you can’t tell to anyone,
Here’s for the chances
you didn’t take,
Here’s for the story
that you can never
put to an end.

Woe
for that growing chaos
that chose to live
inside your own mind.

If I had one question to ask you
I would ask

What makes you happy?

And watch your eyes light up,
Your heart flutter,
Your lips grow into a smile,

And I would do everything I can
To make them permanent
Even if what you'll say will break my heart

I know I don’t deserve a second chance
And I know I don’t deserve a second dance
And I know you’re scared that I’m gonna hurt you again
And I know you're scared that I won’t hold your hand
And I know that you don’t know what I’m thinking
But I promise you’re the only thing I think about
And you’re the only hope in this sea of doubt
And I just feel so trapped i need to get out
And I know that you can save me from depressions mouth
And I’ll be here to give you all the love that you deserve
So for what it’s worth
Will you give me a second chance?
I been thinking about this way too much...

i need to find some strength
to get through today
cause the more that i wait
i might make a mistake

cause everything happens for a reason
and flowers never bloom out of season
it never goes according to plan
with my feet still stuck in the sand

it's all just target practice
i miss and miss till i got it
i never really aimed correctly
but once in awhile i get lucky

most of the time i'm tired
of all these shots i've fired
and i don't have what's required
and the date has now expired
