She
She was a puzzle that wasn’t meant to be solved by anyone
Not letting someone build her up or figure her out
She liked the feeling of being undone
And loved the fact shes unsolvable


Or maybe she just didn’t want you.

Maybe I was just that sad playlist that you listened to every time you’re lonely,
Maybe that happy meal that you needed when you wanted a toy,
Maybe the alcohol you drank when you wanted to forget your broken heart for a night,
Maybe that cigarette that was on your lips the night you were lonely,
I could’ve been anything you needed,
But in the end you only wanted me for a moment.

tonight, my last night is calm and quaint
the crickets cry to the sound of moonlight
as the clear twilight sky begins to fade away
an hour from now the stars will die
and the world will be painted
in a brilliant array
like a Da Vinci painting
or a Mozart symphony
I cant help but remember the golden days
filled with chaos and fear
they bore beauty and triumph
and recollect as masterpieces
tenfold by every year
but the moment of living is different
it's not something we can understand
we only love the moment
once it has slipped our feeble hands
so this time I must capture it
before I commit to my sudden end
and prevent my last nostalgic moment
from torturing me
ever again

You can't act like love is some trophy
to be won and earned

Love is shared

"It's okay"
A whisper from your soul
words so
ethereal
because they
come from you
You,
I,
might be wrong,
    but buried in your shirt
the phrase
makes the tears fall
My heavy eyelids
Your blue shirt,
is now the perfect pillow.

eyes so deep and blue as though the sky in a humid morning
eyes so deep and blue as though the vast ocean, scary yet calming
so deep, i'd dive in the universe they hold
so blue, it colored my monochromatic world
random

Let's call it truths
Maybe
Let's just say we never loved
Maybe
I don't know
Maybe
You were only meant to teach me
Something maybe

Theres nothing to do here
We've seen every movie
Let's buy some craft beer

And we'll gaze at the stars
Roll one and make out
I'll take you to mars

I was so bored and lonely
We'll make our own fun
Calling you my only

And thats just the start
I'll vacate my hometown
But never your heart
I wrote this a long time ago. Its not really a style I enjoy so I'll probably never go back and work on it.

you can keep me warm forever
I will gladly be your maybe
