You are like sublime light at the scarlet sky before the sun sinks into the horizon.

Mesmerizing, but momentary.
Him.
Alaina Moore Sep 2020
Spent countless days waiting and wishing for someone to come save me.

Until I stood up and realized the whole reason I am here is to save myself.

As the moon rises I am taken by the clouds,
Wrapped in their infinitely subtle grasp.
As the vapor curls around me,
all my pain is gone.
The buzzing silences, my heart slows,
my mind stops.

So beautifully silent
I bask in the warmth and
Numbness that surrounds me.
I smile as I let the clouds caress my soul.
Healing old wounds in peace.

burns holes in your heart
the kind you can not fill
until it becomes you

you won’t remember what it feels like
to have a complete heart
no aches that throb like a heartbeat

as if without pain
you can not breathe
holding on is much much easier
you heal when the pain becomes you

when hands meet,
the world heals...
veins intertwine
and survival becomes certain.

I found the loneliest content person you will ever meet
A man who acknowledges perfection, but doesn’t yearn for it
A man who adores love, but only if its someone else’s
He applauds from a distance as love rains all around him
He avoids love as if it’s a cold he might catch
He hugs himself to sleep, and kisses his pillow a wonderful night
A sad tale indeed, but bliss in his own eyes
Because he tried once, and love tore him to pieces,
And he only healed, the day he fell in love with himself.

Love is such a wonderful thing,
It's like the lovely afternoon spring.

But love is not something that can magically heal me,
I'm sorry, but you're love won't set me free.

I have tried so hard to learn to love who I am,
But I've begun to give up and I hardly give a ****.

I know I can't properly heal until I can love me,
But it's like I'm stuck behind a door with the wrong key.

I wish I was able to see myself like you do,
But I see myself through such a negative view.

Just because one person messed up
     Doesn't mean everyone will
Just because one person let you down
     Doesn't mean I will too
I know you put all your trust in that one person
     I understand you believed
And it won't be easy to heal and forget
     But can you have hope in me
I will help you along the way
     My intentions are real
I'm not here to hurt you
     Can you please begin to trust me
I'll be patient, please take the time needed
     But please don't give up
It's not over just yet
     I promise I'll be different
You've been let down so many times by the people you least expected. You're beginning to lose hope... please don't lose hope

One, Two, Three.... It's still not enough,
Scratching over and over is leaving my skin rough.

This isn't something I can control anymore,
I can't just wait for the pain to walk out the door.

This is the way I've begun to cope,
I want to be okay, I really do, but I have no hope.

I can't really tell you how I feel,
Because I know the pain in you would never heal.

I'm sorry that this is how I am now,
I know it's not something you allow.

I have spent a lifetime
Healing the people that hurt me
In hopes that without their pain,
They will not need to inflict it,
My suffering should not be medicine,
My sadness should not be a cure,
Do not tell me I do too much,
I've scarred what you left bleeding.
