#unrelenting
Why do we use Those artificial smiles To greet one another? That goes on for miles and miles? Why do we exercise Those 10 muscles around the mouth. When what we're really doing Is being uncouth? I wonder why the people still smile. To hide their unrelenting pain. When all they need to do, Is diverge the rain away? That was what I thought, A few years ago. But now with more experience, I'll can tell you oh~ Pretend that you are happy, And the world will be less blue. Pretend that you are happy, And you're start to believe it's true! Ignore all your problems, And you'll see that life's worthwhile. Pretend that you are happy, And your friends might stick around. Smile everyday!

*The darkest night Just before dawn's light Will end but may yet Yield to a cloudy day*

Unrelenting
The rain falls Unrelenting, unpitying Heavy droplets Drenching everything on sight The rain falls Unperturbed, unassuming Pulling on sleepy eyelids On lachrymose days like today The rain falls— Wipes away my tears Takes away my loneliness Washes away my love for you

A week of unremitting rain suddenly forgiven in morning sunshine

Deluge 10w
The nights are so still So quiet So deafening, That the unrelenting squeezing of my pounding heartbeat beats me to sleep like mama used to Or did she rock me to sleep? I have no time for memories. I can hear the slow dribble of cells and waste and filth and disgust slide through my veins like honey and molasses from the mouthes of posh babes. I feel my heart flutter and bang around and bruise itself up trying to escape from it's dank cage. I'm sorry I don't have a better room to offer my Ruler.

So still
Your hands are trembling touches, shaky decisions, and warm wishes Your lips like soft pillows, unrelenting waves, and firm beliefs Your mouth like home, like hungry minds, like silent promises Your shoulders like stability Your chest like my hiding place Your back like protection, like a shield, like my security Your arms like a seatbelt, like heaters, like my comfort Words like sugar Eyes like oceans Hair like down Voice like honey Dégagé

I wish I could write you beautiful things
Can't it always be this way why do people change, why does time move on. we struggle against a current that pulls our body one way, but the soul another. It pulls my hand from your grasp, desperately struggling to hold the precious memory of a time long since past.
