#prettywords
If I could paint a picture with my words
A palette of stars..rainbow of verbs
Illuminate heaven for all to see
Bring everlasting peace to humanity
Alas I know it's a dream
A *** has to boil to build up steam
There is no clock..Endless is time
Measuring moments in our mind
Delusion illusion..Do you trust what you see?
Someone needs to question society's vanity
Systems smoking..Politics broken
Humanity choking everyone is coping
Complicate the simple take us off our path
Study patterns of History do the math
Yesterday's tomorrow is same as today
All possibility in the word of play
Feel the wrong..Feel the right
Living in the middle gives us sight
Beauty within tames nature of the beast
Pretty words provide hope till we find our peace...

You gave me all the pretty words
that I needed to hear,
But they weren't from you
from which I wanted to hear.
I fell into your carefully laid trap,
I fell into the routine - The routine that I needed
Those god **** words that I craved from the
very bottom of my soul,
You took advantage of my vulnerable mind,
And twisted it to what you wanted.
Who was I to believe that you had changed,
You led me to make some bad decisions,
that in the moment I didnt regret,
But now, now I do.
You were nothing but a pretty face that fed
me Lies,
Lies that never had any truth behind them.
You gave me all the pretty words
that I needed to hear,
But they weren't from you
from which I wanted to hear.

Then it hit me:
You're my hiraeth
You never held home in your heart
Only smelled like it when you held me in your arms
You've got wanderer written inside your bones
You could never be my home
I only thought you were
Because I wanted you to be
I wanted to belong with you, inside four walls, forever
But we were meant to explode and burn
There's no caution to our love
We can't be each other's security
Our love is made of fire and stars, combusting and combusting until there's nothing left behind
But I'll let you be my hiraeth
Because you hold adventure in your eyes
Begging me with just a look "one more ride?"
And I know you've got a string tied around my heart
As i run along side
Then it hit me:
You're my ephemeral
You were never meant to last
Only held too much wisdom in your past
You're going to die before you're old
For only so long can your veins pump gold
I only thought you would last
Because I wanted you to
I wanted you to be forever, to lay here forever with me, at home
But you were meant to burn out
Live fast, love hard, and die before your time
You can't be my forever
We are made of matches and candles and rushed kisses and goodbyes
But I'll let you be my ephemeral
Because you hold knowledge in your eyes
And when I beg you "just one last ride?"
You smile as if you know it will be
Because every moment is your last

Loving you was both ineffable and unendurable
I felt a hiraeth for your heart
As you had already set mine aquiver
Your voice sounded so mellifluous and sonorous
That it was almost nefarious
The epoch of while I looked at you
I knew this wasn’t limerence
And every day I prayed for serendipity
You were ethereal
So much so that it seemed almost illicit
You smelt of petrichor
Maybe it was just my glasses
That made you look iridescent
And made you look like you were luminescent
I didn’t need to rub my eyes to sense phosphines
When you were near me
Because although the time I got to spend with you was ephemeral
It sent me into oblivion
Because I was convinced this was yuanfen
It kind of made me feel like defenestrating you
You made me go through metanoia
The thought of you was eunoia
I guess what I’m trying to say is
I’m ******* in love with you
