Such a fickle soul,
Left to be tormented alone,
Loves to indulge in these temporary amusements,
Time has seemed like a fleeting moment,
How ungrateful of us not to savor every second we have,
The unnerved and unfazed,
Sweet sap of empathy,
Little grief for the lonely,
Melody of the weak,
With pale grey eyes,
Oh, lovely,
Why does it end so quickly?
The night draws nigh,
As the soul of demise basks in moonlight,
Perhaps,
It will be your last light.

I hide my pain behind my smile
And truth behind the lies
And I save them for my monsters
Who come visit me at night
Because they see straight through my lies
And the hurt I try to hide
But they dont say anything
Instead they hold me till the light

Dear mom and dad, colleges been a whirl.
all nighters are common and I eat too much ramen but Ive kept off the freshman fifteen.
My friends pierced my ears and dad I'll out drink you with beers. But frat boys can be quite mean.
I took the car for a few trips outta state with my friends but I filled up the gas and didn't once crash.
I have a tattoo I haven't shown you. I really miss my old bed.
My friends got us a fish but that was a miss.
Then I broke my finger but the pain didn't linger.
I did get corona but after tacoma.
I kissed a few boys and made too much noise, but I did get to dance in the rain.
I showed my friend his first snow and watched my plant grow.
And although midterms made me cry, I got to watch the sky go from blue to pink with a friend
I'm just hoping it won't all end.

warm fresh death of his reckless touch
deep down unseen but the dark
of his world
his is the monster i run from .

A light soft flutter
Faithfully carried a moth
Intent on escape
She flew quite softly
Through the light and to the moon
Left the world behind
Flying by and by
Only to see what awaits
Across the night sky

In my life there are three things:
A feeling of emptiness,
a hollow laugh and blank face,
Hiding behind a mask
I wonder day by day
nothing changing
the world around me is unimportant.
In my life there are three things:
My own emotions elude me
they go about their days
hiding in the back of my brain
a feeling of emptiness
Upon my face there sits
a person I don't know
Because of all I ever am is
a hollow laugh and blank face
Day by day, night by night
nobody ever bothers to look
but I never bother to tell, I'm
hiding behind a mask

I know i hurt you. I felt as though i had no other choice.
I must be heard.
I demand to be heard.
I have gone silent one too many times.
This time is now mine.

“let's got for a walk..i need some fresh air"
i say that to the one person i know i shouldn't-you.
but just like always
you agree.
we walk outside in the cold air.
it's mid September by now,
but the nights turn cold
faster than your heart did.
maybe it was the alcohol
maybe it was the courage that i collected ever since you've been gone
but the normal me would have never talked to you...
especially after the worst day of our lives.
we walk along the cement path making out way to the plastic slide.
which in my eyes seems like it goes on forever in a downward spiral.
my head is spinning so i lay down.
my feet still on the steps.
knees up
and head looking at the stars.
"i really love the stars you know...they make me think of a world
bigger than our own"
"i know you do. i remember you telling me that"
"oh"
i was going to tell you a little sorry about the stars
and how they control our lives
but i guess you already knew my thoughts about them.
i guess you knew me better than i thought you did.
"do you remember- last year how i was completely in love with you"
"yes. I do"
"i just want to thank you. and even though i know we won't ever be the same
and that it's still awkward between us...
i just want you to know that you will always be my friend...
and i know i know u don't want me to get sappy but you.
you are just amazing.
and i think that's why i loved you the first time
and i think that's why i still love you."
"i don't know what to say.."
"i know. you don't have to say anything”
i never looked at you. i just stared at the stars.
hoping they would control my life.
if it was left up to me.. my life would not exist at all.
"thank you for being here for me"
i turned
my hazy eyes staring into his
if i look to long i'll fall back into his spell
so i quickly decide-
should i end the night on a sad note
or end it with the best friend i've ever had.
i kiss his cheek.
the warmth from his skin lingers on my lips.
it's not ******
it's not out of lust
but it is part of our old and broken love.
i sit there my head on his shoulder
his arms wrapped around me with a strong firm grasp
and with that i know he will be there forever.
i close my eyes and doze off to the image of the stars
twirling above me in the late autumn night.
buzzzz
i wake up two hours later
realizing that this moment
will never happen
because it was just a dream
woven into the thoughts of reality.

As obscurity prevails,
and the dark moon sets
the tone,
while the shadow still
entrails
with the nightmare in
my home.
A simple, even childish
fear,
slowly, but surely on
the trace
dimming the light as it
nears,
chuckles as it sees my
face.
With a grasp, long as
the night
and a mouth lusting for
blood,
grabs, expecting little
fight
growls, as a monster should.
A nightmare! I'm shocked!
It's been too long...
I haven't had these in
a while...
And as my head rests -
the same old song,
a music box with sounds
too vile.

an untwisting of the mat
the fibre holding it as one
is fast becoming undone
its time verily nigh

The rushed days are slipping by
As I ride this eagle into the sky
Circling the mountains high
Never knowing the reason why
Those of us would pay to die
As the albatross sit and cry
All I can do is stand and sigh
Knowing the end is drawing nigh

*As time passed by,
And so the spaces between us are drawing nigh.
And in pulchritude, our love will illuminate exceedingly,
As we kiss our fears away so passionately.*
with love <3

The stars in the night sky are millions of years old
And it is said that when you gaze into them,
You are looking into the past
Years upon years
Of past lives lived
And stored in those beautiful stars
Concealing all the secrets of people’s existence
I wonder if our futures were written in our pasts
Because stars were created to show us our history
And we were built to glimpse at our futures
