#taintedlove
I finally found you again its been years but I could never forget your barley laced breath, sneaking cigarettes burning everything but yourself your burial only hid the covers of your flesh who knew that you would resurrect into someone I had never met dipping himself in liquor his angered tremble is reminiscent of yours how foolish was I to believe you would ever let me out the broken door of my existence you must have missed this you must have wished this curse upon me! I suppose its expected when a tomb remains occupied with life if only you would die if only you would drown yourself lifeless in liquor if only you would bury me too and leave me well enough behind.

Domestic violence in my heart With eyes that wage a war And lips that speak of more He takes our tainted love and calls it art

Domestic violence
I'm afraid to ask for more Just in case you might leave I find myself often unattached So I wouldn't lose more pieces of me I anticipated you would leave More than you would stay It's a belief instilled in me That sadly won't go away It's hard to trust people When I trust them to leave It is hard to depend on them When I expect to be deceived The love that I am used to Doesn't seem like love at all It feels like something you lose to Something encased within my walls

Broken Love
They didn't write about this in the fairytales of my childhood They never told me love could fade away That it is hard to find, but easy to lose They never gave me forewarning that my heart could be broken by my prince Or that I could be the breaker of his Who knew we were given such power, such responsibility? They never told me there were other princesses roaming in his mind They never told me of other princes who could catch my eye Who knew of such dishonesty, such infidelity? Who knew love was something so fragile? As if it were porcelain it slips through your fingers so fast To be shattered like the illusion of the fairytale love story in your mind When you see the truth a tainted love leaves behind

Broken Fairytale
12-17-2-13 Her face flooded with scarlet her nose flushing out bright red Did I do it? Did I do that? How could I just do that; was it someone else instead? She says three separate people control the thoughts inside my head. "which one is the realest"  she asks. I'm not pretending when I ask for amending.
