Your love is so fickle
Sometimes it shines
With a brilliance that’s blinds me
Some days it lies dormant
Imperceptible in inky shadows
Either way
I am left floundering
My arms held aloft
Bracing myself
For the inevitable
Fall

The moon is awake and you never will be
I lost the most important piece of me
In the lowest point of feeling
I know I have to keep pushing
There is no song or lyric
Nothing can cure it

In a world so populated
I sit here with myself
And I won’t lie, I’m more afraid to cry
Who’s gonna wipe my tears

I wait for the call that’s never calling
The letter that can’t be sent
You were my lover, more than a friend
Yesterday I could of sworn I would hold you until the end

Why did you go, why did you leave
Without me…
I’m here, you’re not even there, not anymore
But pouring out of my soul

I've been cheated
I've been robbed

I find it amazing.

I find it amazing how you can fall for someone.
How you allow, to some extent, someone to be part of you.

The more time you spend together never adds up to enough.
You catch yourself thinking about them, even when you’re not
Start to find yourself using their phrases like they’re your own.
You notice the way their eyes squint and their forehead wrinkles when they laugh really hard with you.

Their hands seem to be made perfectly for yours, the contours compliment one another to a perfect fit.
They are your definition of warmth and perfection.
No matter how hard you fight it, you can’t beat it.
Their magnetic like pull to your weak iron heart.

They some how get inside and passed every wall and trap you put up and set.
Like a thief they creep in unnoticed and go straight for the masterpiece hanging in your chest.

To be in love.
You give that person the power to destroy you. Annihilate you.
You’re not sure what they will do but you think it would be a privilege to be loved or destroyed by them.

It’s amazing.

The days are naked
The days are done
I am the vampire, asleep at dawn
You are the ...pawn

I’ll beat the angels who flirt
I wanted to end you
I’ll drown the saints
I wanted to befriend you

I drew you back inside my eyes
I sink in my thoughts
Too many flaws, you swim to his shore
I swim to the bottom of my lake of lies
Seems to be the only place I can hide

I’ll beat the angels who flirt
I wanted to end you
I’ll drown the saints
I wanted to befriend you

In crowds of shade,
In the place near the start.
There is only one face.

And she said with her last ounces of blood dripping from her face, with the last gasps of air she will ever know…

“There is a moon, there is a sun, and there are the stars. You were the moon among stars, I was the sun chasing you around the world.”

The words poured out like my tears as I held her closer turning her chin so I can stare into her fading eyes...

“I may have been with all those stars, but they’re all the same. They burn out fast, so it won’t last. You were the star of stars, and I was chasing you around the world.”

I watched the glow from her face leave as it walked off with my sanity. I pulled her in closer, tightly, with all my might.
I was hoping I would be able to hold her so tight that she would become apart of me.

I’m in your zone.

Even in the company of others,
I stand alone.
Gasping and grasping for a sliver of you.

You were in my veins, in my thoughts, and you were my actions.
I lay down at night, with immortal fright.
Too afraid to turn off the light.

I stare in the mirror, so cliche.
You hit me to the ground using only your lips.
Just to pick me up and let me stumble back down.
