Catching through cars and corners, his coincidence the darkest hour. From coffee cups to storefront shows, he follows—door to door. It’s not only his obsession; this passion is mutual: photos spool like thread, a network lit by the smile she ignited. Right angles mapped by her too— he calls it stalking; she steps closer, her whisper burning at his ear: “Never drop it.” His smirk returns.

Velvet obsession 💜
Back against the cold, damp wall Slowly shuffling sideways Narrow ledge with debris crackling underneath bare feet Numb fingertips scrape the concrete Blindfolded by all-consuming darkness It's been days I'm counting the deafening seconds The clock hammers them like nails into my ears Sweat pearls rush to leave my forehead And I can't blame them I could be a drip of sweat One single drop Is all it would take No more clock No more wall I smirk I shuffle on

Weight of Eternity - Part 1
Glimpses of what it was, Moments of sweetness, Left a tang of bitterness, And... a smirk

Bittersweet Smile
Smile, a simple curve in your face That sets everything into place It's a gesture in your lips That makes me forget how to sleep Smiling will cost you nothing But for me it means everything It always happen in just a flash Yet the memory stored in me will last With a glimpse of that sweet smirk And this whole world of mine change With a glance of your sparkling smile I can say that this life is a brand new game Why would I bother gazing up in the sky If the shiniest star is in front of my eye It would be a waste of time diving looking for a pearl It's an obvious fact, with your smile nothing can be compare Your smile is like a contagious virus Affecting my heart, and mind and make me smile too damaging my brain cells and can't do a thing hanged, frozen, just looking straight to you It's amazing how it can make me vulnerable Your smile is very lovable I'll do anything to make that smile last for eternity Because it defines the name "diane" for me

Your smile
Hate comes from ignorance Anger comes from pain Heartbreak is the result of lies Love begins with lust then held on to by hope Loneliness is much more then being alone While death starts at birth Ones birth cause another ones death Breakup can only happen after hooking up Perfection means never having to say sorry But we are so far from perfect We hookup after breaking up but never make up It's insane cause we expect it to be different without change I'm here so you can push blame Your here just till you find another way I love the same whether rich or broke Make love on the change before we roll it up Turn ***** money clean again with a warning to the teller Might want to wash your hands I walk out just in time to see you skipping off with a new man Catch up as he opens the door for you Hand you half and you just laugh He let's me know you'll be ok Before that door on that rolls can close I tossed it on your lap You may not need it now but you will when you want to come back I take my forty two fifty and drunk it up Getting woken up up the sound of a slamming door A voice ask what are you in for I guess you could say for falling in love , yourself ? I stole a rolls royce Officer can I make my phone call

The Power of a Woman
She thought for awhile Blushing , she ran to the balcony He was there with his bad smirk She whispered I fell in love with the way you touched me Without using your hands

She whispered
A dark field that stretches in front of me Seeming to have no end I sigh, turning my head to look back The black mist seeps through the crack of the wall I built it Safety or precaution I don't know which I can't remember Both things are dark Seem to be a danger I must face As I can't go anywhere else Left - Right I don't want to go there Inefficient I sigh, looking back It's grinning at me Creepy It's laughing at me Creepy They come closer I smirk Not at the path Not at the mist They close around me Trapping me All I can do is smirk

Inefficient
I wrote a song once About a girl With chamomile eyes It wasn't about the color It was about the feel The way her eyes seemed to embrace you To wrap you up And hold you And protect you You are not that girl Your eyes Are nothing like that Your eyes Are a dark Deep brown Sharp All edges Daring me Pushing me Teasing me Your eyes have a hint of laughter And contradiction A cool brown That can cut through me When you are mad Relentless and so, so impassive But make my stomach drop When you give me that look You know the one I'm talking about It's all eyes All tilt of the head Twist of the lips As they curve up In a teasing smile And the ember In the brown ashes Of your daring eyes Makes me weak

Cursed Smirk
"You're a goofball" she muttered "And you're a typo queen" I smirked at her "But you're my goofball" she smirked back "Forever and always like you are my queen" Yet now I'm reminiscing and a total wreck..

What happened to Forever and Always?
I almost forgot the way his lips felt against mine, or how his lands left trails of fire on my skin, or how our bodies tangled together perfectly, underneath a pile of blankets in the morning light. Just like the way he laughed, I almost forgot how he would smirk when I caught him looking at me. He is so much more than anyone can see. He is the lyrics that are constantly in his head and the summer nights that make him smile. Everything from his favorite kind of beer, to how he got that scar on his cheek. He might not be important to everyone else, likewise, neither is every little thing about him, but to me, he was my everything. He is my everything. He is everything. and I miss everything.

Everything 2
The sonata streams, soars through the starlight                       I play you my songs, but still you can’t hear My music used to woo you toward the right Yet now my notes don’t carry far, I fear The love between us is a one-way street I pray that you’ll see me in a new light The lack luster of my eyes breaths defeat                               What I wish for should not be such a fight And then, for an instant, I see you smirk.                                   And then, the crows feet of your eyes wrinkle. And then, I feel confidence start to work. And then, I try to make your eyes twinkle.      My feelings pour into sweet honey’d tongue.                     Your giggles in my ear, forever rung.

Sonnet: Your Smirk
We carried his body back to shore. There was nothing we could do to stop this man hellbent on self destruction. He planned it out and wanted it more than anything. Here we are left to clean up, left to drag his corpse back to shore. His old weathered skin still holding that final smirk of satisfaction. I hope the water brought him peace, I hope the water calmed the war in his head. Everything else is best left unsaid. Goodbye old friend.

Left Behind
Everything can be poetic if you look at it that way The way you smile and good off at yourself while brushing your teeth The way the laundry does cartwheels in the machine The way your curly hair falls right behind your ears The way you smirk whilst trying not to laugh The way you stifle a giggle at your crazy life There is extravagance in the most normal of things we barely glance over

Normalcy
Everything they do Is lovely to you From breathing in To tying their shoe Their little smirk That gives your face a red hue That one person Who to you is true

Lovely
His eyes were an abyss That I couldn't help But fall into them The soft charcoal black Rimmed by even darker lashes A flirty smirk A careful poke on the nose Each smile from him Pulling me in Further o.g.
