Love withdrawal
Tony Scallo Oct 2014
Don't ever leave me
I can not bear without you
I will withdrawal

You are an addiction
And I admit that I'm hooked
You limitless drug

As free as can be
I can't seem to get enough
This feeling is bliss

Inject me with words
And watch me crave even more
*Just from "I love you"

Second opinion
Tony Scallo Sep 2014
Beyond heart broken, and time remains frozen
Hanging off an intangible edge, holding on
To what feels like emptiness, I’ve lost it
Me, myself and my eroding shield of skin
Is wearing thin, along with my hope
Wearing paper thin, i’m transparent like a ghost
Feels like only my being remains
Since my guts fell outside my body a while ago
Falling, and I’m still watching them fall endlessly,
**** this because I still feel it, it’s never ending pit of pain
My heart has collapsed within itself
Yet has preserved hers to make me remember
Every moment she told me she loved me
Scarred within my pupils, when I looked into hers
I almost want to forget, how real it was in the moment
So I could never tell myself it must’ve been a lie
All along, I guess I could say I felt it somewhat
Denial is dangerous, so keep a second opinion handy

Wrapped Around Your Finger
Tony Scallo Oct 2014
I have myself wrapped tightly,
Around your tempestuous finger
And I don’t seem to mind

I make myself act this way,
It seems almost all the time.

You’ve started your life, a brand new chapter,
Doing things that I can't
Seem to stop chasing after

I wrap myself around your finger,
Because I’m stuck on your laughter

I’ll admit, I’m an addict
A slave to your vibes
Your voice heals my soul, and I don’t know why

Cause it's the same one that continuously p u l l s
The hems of my heart,
Exposing it’s wool

And I bleed

Because I hurt and I ache
From all I give and you take

I expect it to be the same,
As it was back in the day

I just want to love you
And for you to love me back
Waiting for you to graduate,
Is going to give me a heart attack

I know you care for me
But it doesn’t feel the same,
Compared the memories that are lodged, deep inside of my brain

Take me back to the days
Where you were never away
Where you’d lay on my chest, and laugh on replay

I hope you still feel for me, like I do for you
After you graduate, and that this doesn't fall through

My Bed
Tony Scallo Oct 2014
When the times become rough
Your comfort is my vaccine
My bed, you have been there
No need for chlorpromazine

Your cushion is a cradle
That rocks my problems away
Much like a mothers love
That prevents a child to stray

I've told you many things
Things that no one else will know
In a way, you've been a friend
A friend I know I'll never outgrow

From the tears that I've shed
On top of your sheets
That seemed ever lasting
Just sulk, rinse, repeat

To the words that I've screamed
Till I ruptured a lung
That I punched into pillows
Instead of into someone.

You have been there for me
Judgement free, now I'm fine
To sleep within your comfort, always
Thank you for being mine

Life is about experience, period.
To be anchored down or lifted up by the cards dealt to us,
Is merely a *choice.

Irony (10W)
Tony Scallo Oct 2014
We wonder what we are, while looking up at stars.
