I visioned you,
With her in fields
Of long green grass
Underneath the sun.

I watched you,
****** each other
Like shears to a lamb
Naked and joyous.

You left me here,
In the plots of blade
And purple thistle crown
A princess undone.

I will nay curse you,
Nor she who destroyed
Me as I was once alive,
Woke under your spell.

We all are the lovesick poets, regurgitating the world as we see it, while we have dances with Gods and Devils. We dine on ashes each night, breathe in dust as we sleep.
And we dream of our deaths.

You think trying would get you a good outcome,
but **** no my efforts are meaningless.
Fed up with the accusations and verbal abuse.
Just pick and choose if it's me or really you. Tired of the fighting, expired of the lying.
Get a grip, and don't let loose.
You'll come to fall with no feet to land on, you'll hide and clap in applause.  
Stop all the negatory, you just hold me back. Too quick to be the one to attack.
I lost defense, and you're just too senseless.
Make some ****** sense of yourself and I'll make some cents for myself.
You're the back door rug that keeps making me trip,
if I just  stood up maybe I could dip.
Yes I used lie.
Yes I used to make you unhappy.
Kept coming back and wouldn't cut me slack.
Realization and consideration got me to change my act.
Accept the facts of my mistakes.
Don't bring it up but you don't know how to shut the **** up.
You hang onto the past, but I hang onto you. The truth of your father is unspeakable,
I'm sorry he did that, it's unbelievable.
You could leave us alone so I could slit his throat.
That's besides the fact of me trying to show you.
That I care and I always try to show support. Don't you dare put your hands on me or expect a letter from court.
Cut me short when I speak, on the outside your weak.
Inside you're so beautiful, I wouldn't trade you for diamonds.
The truth here is to be told, I'm so serious about our relationship,
don't hesitate and I try to get you to work before your late.
I launder your clothes, and fold all the fabrics.
I stay and wait for you at home
When you could be gone at the casino.
Blow up some bucks, I could careless for these jealous *****.
I'm not your property, but I can say your mine.
I won the lottery, it was everything no one else could give me.
The little things like coming to see me every night, the miles, the highs and the lows.
Not giving up makes me not give up.
I gave up the truth, and I nearly puked speaking of it.
I love you Mon Amour, you're everything I could ask for.
You make me sore for your love, I can't sugarcoat it either.

how to heal a broken heart,
when you, yourself, are falling apart?
and this is a risk i must take
when missing you is a heartache.

to be cured of being love and homesick,
when you will return to me in the end.
i'd say you, the medicine, are perfect;
you miraculously make me better in an instant.
love me, heal me

I do not wish to fall in love
By accident or chance
I do not wish to slip and fall
Into affection and romance

I do not want to spring the trap
That clamps around the heart
I do not want a sweet surprise
As love awakens with a start

Because if I've fallen into love
A swooning, ignorant fool
My affection is but dust and sand
Fickle, vain, and cruel

So I refuse to fall in love
At its precipice I'll wait
And there I'll choose to fall or stand
And there I'll choose my fate

I do not wish to fall in love
So unaware and so asleep
No I will decide to give my heart
will not fall...but leap

Into love I'll jump headfirst
Committed alive or dead
My purpose clear, I'll face the fear
And choose the fight ahead

Love is not just something felt
Or found by luck or chance,
It is also a choice to make everyday
A taxing, beautiful dance

So here I pause outside love's door
Do I enter through the gate?
It aches to stay outside these walls
But my eager heart must wait

It is not time to give my love
For what reason, I do not know
But to give it now is not love at all
I must wait for it to grow

To confess a love not strong but weak
Fills me with smothering fear
For she deserves more than I have
Every laugh, thought, and tear

So I cannot give her all just yet
For there's not much here to give
But I know that soon I'll be prepared
To share this life I live

So I wait here pacing the edge of love
Till the hour shall arrive
When with life prepared and heart lain bared
I'll hold my breath, and dive.
.
The heat of you,
Bairn in my hands,
I am strung with you,
My song sings out ever
To one unbridled listener,
A lad as wild as gusty seas
And I keen on tighten strings,
Casted about thee, four winds
And am latched with old moon,
My tunes are loudy, unheard of,
Sadder than empty airs in hollow
Bars, bereft of any joy dancers.

Like you I have known love,
In gentle touches that swoon
And take flight up dizzy reels,
I hold you, like fresh newborn,
Child of melody an sleepy dove,
But still, in swells of driest fears,
Unlike you, body of live, heart
Wood, colour of striped tiger,
Regal structure, unchained,
Aged about languid truths,
My fingers unleash you,
Yet they lock, in frieze,
Captive, painting nil
Dreams of brood.

She tried too hard,
And ended up with a broken heart.
He tricked her love,
and she slowly fell apart.

She gave him too much,
He breathed it all in.
She was so mesmerized,
By his stupid little grin.

I'll eventually move on,
Because I've always been tough.
Even if my love,
Will never be enough.

I say so many
Stupid things
I am ridiculous and
Impetuous,
I am unarmed and
Unyielding.
When you decide
To scar my heart
Or let it sink
In the wake of
Your absence
I will offer it up to you
Without hesitation.
Why do I wear it
Bare around my wrist,
Embedded in the fabric
Of my sleeve?
Why do I foolishly persist
When I know that
You will leave?
Caitlyn Emilie Jul 2016
I missed you so much,
even the sky began to cry
when the wind whispered
your name.
Long distance *****:/
