My worst nightmare is going to Heaven (am I already there?)
Reflections of my warped mind stare back at me
When I was frustrated I told you to slam the door behind you
I'm killing you and you're slowly killing me

Society shuts down my true feelings and turns me into a clone
We all know we're all alone but no one takes action
Hell will be a place without hope. Hell is this life
Got nothing better to do anyways

Sometimes they just end it all but nothing ever happens
Good friendly violent fun in store for all
My ears close, leaving me with the ring of nothingness
As the steel machine keeps turning

we are connected, like two gummy candies fused
or like a warm tongue stuck to a cold piece of ice

i feel like i'm stuck to you
like when a magician traps you inside your own mind
or when you're handcuffed to yourself

but instead of you being me
you're you
glorious you

If I ever seen your sad eyes I’d give my happiness to you.
If you ever cried I’d wipe away the tears from your eyes.
But that doesn’t work because I want to be happy too, so I’d have to make enough happiness for two.
I want to be the support you need to make you fly.

If I ever seen you angry I’d help you let off some rage.
If I ever seen you laugh I’d smile and laugh too
Because with you I feel like I’ve started a new page.
I feel like everything’s better when I’m with you.

If I see you smile my heart will melt inside.
If I see you happy I’ll feel complete.
When you look over I’ll be standing beside.
Seeing you happy would be my treat.

And no matter what happens.
Ill be here for you through every challenge.

i forgot how to breath
when you came into my life
feel like 10 feet high
how could this be
i didnt need anyone
and then you came
and then you said hello
who would ever thought that you change me forever
i dont need anyone
but only you
how did this happen
when you said those words
that made me feel like im enough


let this end be with you
let this feel like we're here forever
let us feel each other, in a world of no one ever

poetry is an art
            where saying less
                        only means more

You slipped through my fingers just like a bar of pure white soap
Every time I looked at you my mind was scrubbed clean
And all my negative thoughts were washed away
Down the drain of your love

The bubbles you made flew me up to heaven
While you stayed down on Earth
And I just want you to be free too
Won't you come and join me?

Self Hatred consumes me
like a dragon chomping off the head of an innocent knight
What did the knight ever do to deserve this
All he did was try to do the right thing

And for this he was punished

Granger Smith I love you so
Come to me or heads will roll

you know that sound makes when you open a can of soda?
that's the sound my heart makes whenever you walk into the room

that freeing, opening feeling
and all my bubbles froth up just to see your beautiful face

once you open a can of soda it can't be closed
just like my love for you is forever released
never to be captured

all you can do is drink me up
and revel in my sweetness before the can is finished

each toe carefully etched in the dissolving sand
it washes away as the wave washes over it
with nothing but a smooth canvas left behind,
for the next person to mark

this is like my love for you:

i know soon it will be gone,
left perfectly for the next person to take over.
all i ask is that while i'm here,

you appreciate me like i appreciate you
