Sign your name on my heart
With a sharp knife, please
So you can scar yourself
Forever into my heart
Written 9 February 2016... deja vu
Jack Jenkins Dec 2016
My wounds are exposed and open
I'm bleeding out on the ground
The sky has turned to grey
And the rain pours down
The lightning cracks across
The thunder shatters my mind
The blood runs in rivers
My breath turns silent at last
And my soul is set free

Oh I can't tell how I feel right now
Everything is a confusing mess
It's like my heart is shrouded and veiled
My thoughts run aground like a ship

I have doubts and fears whispering in my head
So many old ghosts wish me to be dead
I don't know how to survive this
I can't help but assume the worst

I'm throwing a party
And nobody is invited
Because I'm always alone
Forever and ever alone

I'm okay with alone
I don't even own a phone
Never rings anyways
Doorway's always empty

I lay alone in bed
And I realize my head
Is just as lonely as I
But I don't know why

I feel my heart right now
It's being pried open by something burning
I hate this feeling
It's always how I feel when I'm going to fall

My heart is being ripped apart
Yet I refuse to sacrifice this love
It will not be lost like a cheap gift card
Full will it's bloom ever be!

Nurtured and grown, it's not yet ripe
When it becomes so let's harvest our fruit
To waste this away would be a crime
So lock me up as a prisoner of love!!!

Tonight will not be the night
Because tonight I fight the fight
The fight of waiting on you
Until the time is right for harvest

Darkness and light may battle in me every night
But this war torn mind is held together better
And this stitched together heart has many healed scars
Because Someone is holding me together with amazing people.

Yes, you amazing poets are a cause for great hope
And I look forward to you everyday
You great people I love so much
Some I've never seen your face
All I've never heard your voice

But I have seen, heard, and felt something better
Your poetry
Your stories
Your broken hearts
Your broken minds
They make you whole
And I love you all for it
So so much.
Written 7 February 2016... lost touch with a lot of them... maybe I'll find some more on here.

I love your amazing eyes
They look otherworldly
Like there's a galaxy within
Spiraling with your gaze

If infinity paid me infinite money
It would be far too cheap a price
To trade for a little, tiny, weency
"I love you" from you

There is no continent on this earth
That will prevent me from running
Through the deepest ocean's deep
To your arms that my heart keep

If I were all alone forever more
I'd go to an insane asylum
Just to remember you
Because you are my heart.

P.S. I like your ****.
Written 7 February 2016... one of my personal favorites.

I'm burning up
Light your fire
I'm sweating rivers
Light your fire
I'm roasted through
Light your fire
I'm melting down
Light your fire
I'm consumed in flame
Light your fire
Cremate me
Light your fire
I'm not dead
Written 7 February 2016... can this even be considered poetry?

As I lie here in bed at two thirty in the morning
I remember you.
Not only do I remember you but I remember you with fondness.
And I love these sweet memories
And the melodies we shared.
It wasn't meant to be, but I'm glad it was tried
And though this heart isn't yours
You hold the old half I gave you
So long ago.
Written 7 February 2016... turns out I gave her all...

'Twould the world end today
In your arms I'd only stay
'Twould I die this night
Your lips still my frights

'Tis you alone I love
For you love me
'Tis you I will join
Intertwining hearts

'Til the end
Hold my hand
'Til the start
Hold my heart
