Just words These are just words. A storm in the distance Advancing with rage Escalating in time Take the power away. Just words. High pitch shriek Piercing ears Traveling the connection Between head and heart These are just words Spitting out the mouth Tornados Harmless breathe Butterfly wings flap Lethal turning. Just words Beauty that seems to fly from angry hands Beat the things Only supernaturally touched These are just words Hurled in a corner Knees to chest Just words Raging war Settling scores These are just words Tearing like paper Childhood taken Just words Target set to **** Bullet bursting These are just Words! Rivers flowing Shame imploding Just words. Regret for tomorrow Can't take back what stains These are just words Memories flicker Weight upon the shoulders Just words Empty, lifeless These are just words Nothing that can come to cut the heart To chain the soul. Destroy the life. Just words Repeat, repeat These are just words.......

Lifetime scars
Will we leave You still have that car The sale shall happen Or have I just gone astray Again self judgment has come to me You say let go no more A future shall come for us Let's dance and push in that hernia Explore the world we haven't seen The corners the nooks Icecream in the shade (c)near_lane7

When
I now remember the very first time I saw you. walking down the small crowded walkway. both of us were pushing our friends. At least I was, because I was holding mines arm and talking to her. You on the other hand had friends around you. But all you cared for was your phone. One accidental meeting. I knew I'd seen the most handsome guy in my uni. I went back to my room and told all my friends. They thought it was a lie.... that I exaggerated. The next time I saw you was at a uni rally. You were not actively involved even. You just stood at the side lines and looked on. I showed my roommate the handsome guy. Weirdly she knew you.... But when we walked up to you, she said hello. And you answered only her, you didn't see the other girl. The one who almost collapsed from standing next to you. You were even more handsome in day light. Last night I saw you again. Now I remember what that felt like again. My heart stopped when I saw you. And when you reached out to hug me this time. I thought my heart would burst from pumping so fast. You are still the most handsome guy I ever saw.... And when you walked me to my bus and made sure I got in. I thought you'd turn around and walk away. But you were standing at my window..... Our parting was a peace sign..... and I pray this time again, its not our good bye.

About us #3
Sweaty p(a)lms Perspiri(n)g pits Pounding headache, comple(x) thoughts Heart rac(i)ng at a fast pace Eyes focus(e)d on burdens Thoughts compe(t)ing to finish a pointless race Empt(y) heart seeking comfort Emotions fighting to be expressed Mouth dry, stomach turning, soul burning Pain left to explain what's happening within
