She had,
Time for me,
And we,
Had chemistry,
The way she treated me,
Baby its blasphemy,
She kicked me out,
Now you just find a place for me,
One for the journal,
One for the books,
One for the heartbreak,
And one for your beautiful looks,
She could  have destroyed  me,
But just seeing what it took,
To get you to understand,
That my mistakes you overlooked,
I'm glad to say,
You stole my love book,
Read through my diary,
As if I haven't wrote a thing,
She could see all of my thoughts,
And future of wedding rings,
Happy that I'm a good artist too,
I drew the ring I'd give to you,
Its safe to say!
You'll see the day,
Your dad walks down the aisle with you.
Apart Of Me Ep
Michael Amery Jan 2015
I have loved,
I have loved,
And I have loved again
Yet every time I am astounded
At how much love there is within me
To give again.

I love you the most.
Damien Rice, beer, candles and a hot bath while you sleep.

She sang me stories  .  .  .
Tales of love and touch at home,
  .  .  .  Little book opens.

I feel the the air around me brushing lightly, lovingly against my skin.
As I'm slowly making my way down to whatever awaits beneath me, I hear your voice in my head telling me I'll be more than fine.
But for some reason, I believe you.
I feel at peace.
I know I can trust you.
I've never felt so.. oddly certain.
I should be questioning everything.
But instead I feel no reason in my gut, body or soul to doubt you. Or anything else for that matter.
I give you the power to destroy me or make whole. You have decided to do none of the two.
But that doesn't bother me.
The anticipation doesn't get to me.
You do something to me that I have yet to understand.
Strangely.. I'm okay with that.

A pain all mine, that I own, self-inflicted, thoughts distorted, unclear, muffled and conflicted.
No one but me can answer these questions,
who? … When? …
Aren’t I free?
Night silent with deafening loud,
the soft sounds overwhelm me, though an uninterested crowd.
No one can face this silence but me, why? … How? … When will I see?
Fighting my tears, sorrow fights with me
sad, still, undoubtedly free.
Help! Help? Is there help for me?
Give, take, wish for something so deep.
Heart filled with sadness, but thoughts filled with glee.
Deep down there is something else I see.
My soul is ablaze so far within me,
a fire in the woods, burning the forest for the trees.
It’s becoming clear now ... I CAN find me.
Covered under layers, blind, stupid, and weak.  
Peel back the fear the confusion, the stink.
The meadow is opened, its strength now I seek.
As I Graze on the knowledge and experience - I have an epiphany,
I am never more beautiful than when I slow down and think.

I used to think my looks were less than stellar
like people think Im something that dwells in the cellar
I used to hate my body because it attracted nobody
I used to hate my face because I felt like a disgrace  
It felt like fate and god did I hate
I felt like a loser because I couldn’t loose her
I felt so weak I couldn’t stand on my feet
I used to believe all that they speak
I used to feel so alone when I sleep
I was tired of life I gave it a thought
I was tired of living Id fought my fight
I had seen the light that was unbelievably bright
my anxiety melted away and for once didn’t return the next day
my head held high it was my time to fly
I sprouted wings just to give it a try
Ive lost the one I thought I loved
Ive never felt more at piece
I’ve never been so happy
to see
someone is
in true love with
me

A few years ago
I fell in love
Racing 60 mph down a 45 zone
Clutching the seat and the door
Of a 98 nissan sentra
Hoping to get the hell out of that car
Because i couldn't stand him anymore
His reckless turned me on though
In a way that opening that car door
Seemed like an exit strategy
I didn't need to take after all
The darkness that encased the car around us
Seemed like the perfect mood setting
For the thrill we both wanted
And for me what i needed
Love didn't understand that
My fear for speed
Resembled my fear for life
Life always seemed to flash by to fast
Like it always had some place to be
And i wanted to remain still
I wanted to take a picture
Because i knew it would last longer
Instead of it always changing
And rearranging itself
Love drove me through the streets
many countless nights
Expanding my perspective
Reversing my sense of direction
A feeling of protection
That i didn't have before
Love gave me reasons
To speed through life
To not be scared
To every once in a while
Let go of the handle
That i strictly held onto
Love became my life
And i thank god
Each and every day
That i didn't take
That exit strategy
That i sped away into the night
And lived an actual life.

A new set of lips
That curl into a smile
Every time my eyes fall to them

A new pair of eyes
That meet mine
Every time I decide to glance

A new spark
That gives me hope
That maybe I can love again

Yet she seems too nice
The kindness she radiates
Makes me cower

She's too pretty
Her beauty consumes me
Not with awe but with doubt

Just as I was too sure
That the last one was for me
That she was the one

And if that last one
Could fool me with "I love you"
Why would someone new be different?

Some Autumn evening..
I grabbed a cigarette.
Lit it without thinking.
A few years after..
Another Autumn day..
I met you.
I love you daily.
Without thinking
Because who knows?
One day, you may replace...
My pack of Marlboro Menthols.
For Kylia, my new love.
