You're perfection

In a way that
A toaster
Will always and without fail
Toast your bread.

In that way
You have one job,
To simply be mine
And you did it perfectly.

But you see
Sometimes toasters break
What they did so perfectly
They can not do at all

But you see
Even though you are broken
Even though you aren't mine
You still seem to be

Absolutely perfect

A list of things that will last forever

A list of things that will last forever

Nothing

Bleeding

--- May 2014

Bleeding

Walking turned into chasing,
Circles stayed the same.
We expect to move forward,
But can't make a change.

Mistakes have been made,
Forgiveness exchanged.
But these things are not simple so they do not just fade.

Not striving for perfection,
Just anything at all..
I think things cant get worse
But we continue to fall.

Over and over,
We go forward then back.
Again with the circles
This relationship continues to crack

Change is what we need
It's all that we can't do.
We are a wound,
And we continue to bleed.

Caged

--- May 2014

Caged

Cages
Some are big
Some are small
But they all have one thing in common
Their purpose

The thing about cages is
Most are ineffective
No matter what
The thing that is caged
Will always want to escape

The thing about escaping is
Sometimes the only way out
Is somewhere you don't want to go

I'm going anyways.

Faded T-shirt

--- May 2014

Faded T-shirt

A faded shirt should sometimes just be thrown away.
It doesn't mean it was useless.
It means it has served it's purpose.

If you are able to throw it away,
It does not mean you do not need it,
But maybe you just no longer have room in your closet.

A faded shirt should also sometimes be kept.
It doesn't mean you have to wear it,
It means you will not let someone else.

It you are able to keep it,
It doesn't mean that you want it.
But maybe you are just afraid someone else will look better in it.

A faded shirt should sometimes also still be worn.
That means that you still want it.
That means that you still NEED it.

If you are still wearing that faded shirt
That means it is still yours
That means you will not let anyone else have it.

Plenty of reasons
To no longer want to live,
But no means to die

Stay

--- Jun 2014

Stay

Tell me about the skies
Let me look deep in your eyes
Just make me feel alive

Show me the beautiful art
Guide me through the dark
Just get into heart

Pour me a glass of wine
Swallow up all my time
Just let me show you I shine

Take me far far away
Show me everything isn't grey
Please just stay

Please don't ever leave
I need you more than you can see
Please just stay

Unable

--- May 2014

Unable

I continue to let the days fade
Because this game that we play
Only continues with the sun
The fighting is always worth the fun.

But games only last so long
I keep saying there's only so much that can go wrong
It should be the point of unsurprising
Everything we fight about the past re-rising

With every argument I tend to think
That soon our fights will begin to shrink
But wrong I am, and wrong I will be
Until our trust is brought back,
I hope we find that ability

Fights, fighting, boyfriend, girlfriend, annoying, anger, love, relationship, relationshit, lover

Distraction
Comes in many forms
For instance
Your smile
Your touch

But mainly just you

Wanting

--- May 2014

Wanting

To work is to change
To change is to be willing
To will is to want

And I don't want you anymore.

Where

--- May 2014

Where

I'm in a place
A place you don't want to be.
It's not a fun place.
It's a disastrous place
It's a loud place
It's an unhappy, overwhelming
Dark, dark place.
In fact,
It's not a place.
It's no where.

And there's no way out.
