Deep in the obis of a poet,
There's a playlist,
Called "Dead Poets"
It's where the songs of their lives
Live. Filled with death, despair,
Haunted memories.
Where no one dares to tread.

Once that poet has gone,
On their own terms,
They search through the poet's
Obis, they find a letter in the notes.
It reads "Love,
I must leave you here alone.
I am sorry that I have forsaken you.
In the depths of the Obis you will find
The playlist I lived by.
Under the name of Dead Poets.
There you will find,
The reason I had to leave you behind
- Your Dead Poet"
They searched the obis,
They found the playlist
In the first words of the songs read
"You Could Have
Foreseen
This"

Now I'm sitting here
in that old chair
playing all those old tunes
(Remember?)
They reminded me of you
What are you thinking now?
(I'm thinking of you)
Imagine dancing through
the night with you in my arms
just like you promised,
If you were only here
What are you doing now?
I'm spending my time
relaxing to that playlist of us
So join me when you're ready
(To make a new song)
Because I could listen to us all night long

I try to appreciate yours,
but you won't listen to mine.
Un-perks of being polar opposites.

My ears are stopped with tapers, so I'll hear no more
of this ****** farce you and he have going.
Every time you ask for more
abuse, I realize I'm better off not knowing.
But my playlist is full of sadness,
and the rest is a bore.
So your screams are my melody
and I'll listen as your blood keeps on flowing.

They say fools rush in, and more the fool you.
More the fool me too, to listen to
your pained cries for more pain,
as your skin is red glowing,
The bruise slowly growing,
as you exult in the sick high you get from his backhand;
as I listen to Red Jumpsuit Apparatus ask him
if he feels like a man.

There's no pain more complete tonight
Than the ringing in my tear soaked budded ears
when he says "**** my ****, *****"
with those lips so sweet... "and tight."
And you oblige, because you're too used to it to fear,
and it makes you feel beautiful,
because only angels weep, right?

That's the sad lesson heard here.
I bid my sad playlist goodnight.

Melodies come whisping out
of my speaker,
engulfing my mind with a haze
almost as thick
as the one I just
inhaled, clouding my brain
with all the thoughts I push away
in my attempts to live my
individual,
unlonely life
when the depth of my soul hankers
for the carnation blooming
at the deepest depths
of your confused persona,
and the moment I find my heart
scrambling free,
reaching for its life in the midst
of gathering strength to likely break
another, you come around
one more moment,
and the springs I loaded beneath
my quivering ankles,
they unlock and unload,
melting me right back into your
rhythm and blues,
and I inhale that curiosity,
snorting and convulsing,
shivering hard against my uncontrollable
goose-bumped arms
as I fall back into your chorus
and verse three
repeats the reprise
of the
first verse
I ever heard.
Echo Sep 2014
Tomorrow marks our special day. Two months. By far I can say that these are the best two months of my life. Why? Because someone so special to me entered my life. He changed me and made me strong. I love him. And I want everyone to know that. He was right where he always should be, and though he left me, I am so grateful to have him back. I wish I could give him the stars. I wish I could just be there to hold his hand. But it's okay. Because these soon to be the best two months yet to come. He's my first and my only and nobody can make that change. They say that people make reckless promises and they don't know the true meaning of their words. Yet I can see in every case that my heart will always belong to him.
Thank you for choosing the ugly duckling over all the swans. Look how we shine in the sky, love. I was enchanted to meet you. You can make me smile thousands of miles away. Just, Thank you. There's a song my heart plays,my heart plays a song. Do you hear that love they're playing our song? Shine brightly.
He is my prince and I will never let him go. Thank you for walking into my life. I will make you at home here. Every girl deserves a guy like him, and for that he should know. Every girl deserves someone like him to be loved by. And he chose me.
Really he is perfect. I'll stick by his side as the world awaits us. Happy Early Two Month Anniversary! I love you <3
For Andy, who stole my heart

This is not the end this is not the beginning.
This is the way you left me, I’m not pretending.
Truth be told I never was yours.
This heart ain’t built for two.
My heart is like a stallion
But I may snap as I move close
I tear my heart open
Waiting on a secondhand pick me up
I don’t care what you think as long as it’s about me
You can read all about it
I know what you’re thinking but darling you’re not thinking straight
Mind over matter never worked for my nemesis
Don’t regret me like the tattoos on my skin
This will never end cause I want more
I’m just saying you could do better
Or is it just madness keeping us afloat
Is there any chance you could see me too
Cause I love
Love love love you

At least I think I do
