Welcome to Heartbreak Room
The only place you can dance dying
I was just a little bit late
Lucky she didn’t have a partner yet
Sizing eachother up across the room
I kept stepping on her toes
She said “One more time and everyone will know.”
She must’ve meant my sins
Except those are common knowledge
Always up for show
So, this is what it’s like slow dancing with a devil
Before I knew it the room was filled with smoke and ash
And all I could see was the heavenly golden glint from your eyes
As the night wasted away

nippy thursday outside
black berry clusters gather
in their dark matter conclaves
silent is the August essence
it’s morning and it’s laundry day
got only your boxers on

I’ve done something’s for which I can’t atone
Feeling like I am the stone
Skipping across the lake
I want to be alone, but I hate the distance
Honestly, I don’t what to think now
I know I’m not the best to be around
I thought I belonged in a coffin
I popped 20 pills and no could stop it
I thought for a second it’d be shocking
Believed these words weren’t enough
And I was done talking
Yet, I awoke and here I sit
Writing love poems to love
Where it seems fit
And my head is still a room
And it’s a mess
Finding Cupid’s arrows stomped in half
With scribbled words on ripped up papers
It’s the way I cope, and I hadn’t felt like myself in months
And I want to go far away from you
But, I don’t want to know how it feels
To be alone
But, I’m craving Everest

Upon this realm of existence
There's only I
In this space and Time
There's only I
In a world full of people
There's only I


Yet, the thought of You
Makes it all worthwhile
Each one of us is experiencing life alone

Diving under waters
Still trying to be honest
Sometimes that **** really hurts
And my sins are catching up to me
Just hear me out
Ive been looking for a brand new start
I just happen to see you
In my dreams at night
Surrounded on the beach with pretty light
Dancing away, asking me to stay
So, I guess I’ll swim back to the surface
Take a step back
Watch as what I want sways in the night
Blonde and smiling
A little drunk on the moment
And we just may never be who we want to be
But let’s just see

Imaginations and creation are a trait of mine it seems
I wonder of all the moments I could create
When in reality I would choose to recreate
I'd choose the moment
Where the sun was set real low
Orange and red with scattered pinks
And emerald gems stared right through me
Speckled hazel from a sunset coast
***** blonde hair and sun kissed skin
Calf deep in the deep blue
You tasted of apples
Sour and sweet
Couldn't resist and the second time around
Was a little hint of caramel
Vinnie Brown Aug 2018
She asked what it would be like to grow old?
I guess I hadn't really thought about it
A little bittersweet
Like the green apples that matched your eyes
How exciting that the moments we shared
Would be all our own
Just you and I's
And we eat our apples different ways
You like yours peeled with a little bit of caramel
I like mine with a little crunch and straight to the core
I guess life's a little like that
It's whatever we chose for it to be right?
How terrifying that were stuck with what we have
I guess that's the most exciting part
Never knowing what we'll get to choose
I just hope it taste a lot like apples
Maybe a hint of you too
For Bella
