Darling
You are so gorgeous
And intelligent
That you dont have to rely
On what society tells you
You should
That your dreams
need not face
The execution
To play these games
With men
Who made the rules
That you enforce
It saddens me
You chose
The former
Over the latter
Because brains
Outlast beauty.
As I watch
a slipping mind
steal away the soul.

I watched you drive away
With tears in my eyes
I missed you the moment you left
I wanted to tell you to come back
To take back the fight
To right what was wrong
But now after many tears
And sleepless nights
I know that the moment you left
Was the moment everything fell apart
Even though you aren't truly gone
I know that you will never be mine again

if she had kept me
would it be tango or samba?
happiness is an ill gain.
false security and contentedness;
beer is better.

I'm enslaved within a dying fire
I can't feel the flames
But I can the hollowness under my skin
To admit I'm dying with it would be too hard
I can't cope with the fact it's breaking an already broken heart
So I'll go into a deep slumber and dream of a beating heart to save me

I know you're tired and you want to put it to rest
But this can't be the end of it
Remember all those things you'd always dreamed you'd have?
All these famous guys you made yourself believe you're destined to marry,
Those places you'd excitedly mapped out in your head,
That plan you had, that once you're free you'd roam the world
Please
I know it's hard
And the future seems more vague than ever
But please try to endure
Please, even just a little more
