In us we lust
The stars they ******
Into my eyes
With parted thighs
And warm hands that strangle
Like twitching fingers that tangle
Among sweet lips of death
Each holding their breath
Unaware of the danger
That kissed your neck
But now your body's inept

And your thoughts they collect
Pebbles
And aims them at varying
Levels
The sweat on your frown
Trembles
the castle of hearts
It does fade
The next card on deck
Is a *****

But the laughing man's mouth is a cage
His sentences like homes that fall
Each word is a crumbling wall
Fists clenched in a ball
That roll off the bridge of my face
And send blood through my breathing space

My temper, it burns like fire
My body once filled with desire
Now craves to see your life expire

I haven't been completely honest
With myself
I lie to her all day long
She asks if I am alright
I nod and give a frail smile
Sure
You could consider me that
I think I would rather give it the name of "surviving"

When they ask you if you’re okay;
tell them you’re perfectly fine.

When they ask you if you need to talk;
respond with no but thanks.

When they ask if you need help;
smile and shake your head no.

When they ask you if you’re silently drowning;
laugh and call them crazy.

When they ask if you want to die;
Smile and ask them do I look like;
someone that wants to die?

But when you go home;
silently sit down and stare at the wall.

Think about all the things;
people say about you;
and talk about behind your back.

When you’re alone;
sit and cry;
and wonder why you’re still alive.

But when someone ask you if you’re okay,
Smile, and tell them you’re perfectly fine.

She knows
                  she knows
                                    what you did, Daddy

and you're wrong
                          no longer can you
               be my hero

The lies you told
                      and things you stole
   brought you down
                                          to zero
                                                            ­                                               she knows
                                                           ­                                she knows
                                                           ­ she'll never not know

I'm a liar, I'm a hypocrite, I'm alone and I'm defeated
I'm a sad girl with a sore heart and you're everything I've needed
I'm so ******* sorry and I feel so ******* guilty,
I'm sorry that he kissed me (I wish that he had killed me)
I'm sorry that I kissed him back and I'm sorry that it'll hurt you
I'm sorry I was mad when you told me you'd kissed her back, too
I'm torn and I'm ashamed for the ****** mess I've made
But most of all I'm sorry for thinking this would be an even trade
I'm a weak girl with crumbling walls that thought she could fix your heart
I'm sorry for only tearing you further apart
