You know her
She’s that girl
The one with the biggest smile
Matched with the biggest demons
The one with the loudest laugh
Matched with the loudest thoughts
She’s the one that’s happy
Right?
She’s the one that has everything
Right?
She’s the one that if you ask her how she is
She smiles and says she’s....fine
She does it so quickly almost as if rehearsed
Almost as if she had planned the reply in the mirror each morning
But no one notices
Her eyes sting from the crying
-She’s lost
But found in a fake world
A tea party with her own demons
Scars that put your nightmares to shame
-She is lost
But you won’t find her
Her laugh is just loud enough to cover her cries for help
Her smile told the story of how she’s fine
A fantasy story with a drowning hero
She’s the hero
Yet she’s drowning
but knows how to swim
But each demon she has pulls her under
And you don’t notice...because she’s "fine"

Put up a good battle
Stood your ground strong
Your army next to you
Yet...
his army was stronger
his words crushed you
You were pushed under
And for what?
So he could feel strong?
Better?
He eats of your weakness
He murdered your army
...Yet is not called a murderer?

Leaving you not only alone but vulnerable with no dignity
He took everything from you
Your army
Your heart
Your hope
Your trust
What did he leave you with?
A reason to not carry on?
He brings this upon you
And look at you now

You Went in there thinking he had an army yet he had a whole battlefield
Only took a few savagely created bullets filled with hurt aimed at your heart
and you were pushed down
With no one to help you get back up

left alone...

And at
blackest point
of night
when stars
fall to
your angel
eyes,

and the clouds
dance before
you in hues
of black and
blue,

and the
sea stands
before you
a humble
witness
in trust.

kiss the
moon and
be reborn
for a moment
in time.

as truth is
your shadow
and time
is your
fate.

and I will
be the
soul who
applauds
you,

the keeper
of your
smile and
laughter
for a while..

I will
celebrate

you.

and peel
back your
stories of
heart,

and keep
them for
a deep breath
or two
under this
celestial
sky,

and be
the audience
who stands
upon my
feet.

to watch
you from
a far...

and embrace
the miracle
that you
are.

I'll hurt you,
I'll love you.

I'll kiss you,
I'll shove you.

I'll hold you,
I'll break you.

I'll caress you,
I'll shake you.

I'll harm you,
I'll crown you.

I'll honor you,
I'll drown you.

after the breakup
her heart worked even harder
being that it was beating alone now
no assistance
no butterflies
just involuntary body members
trying to sustain the equilibrium

My lips would roam
not only on your lips
but down to your neck
and your thighs.

Will you blame me
for missing the times
I get to kiss you?

My dear,
I'm a mess
but I miss you.
[ I smooched the hell out of you ]
