Love is for children
and romantics
But I have no time for
such antics
I hold the key to my
own heart
And to no man shall
I impart
Izzy Sep 2013
I'm happy,
so why are these tears streaking my face,
like the rain on my window pane?
And why am I howling like the wind?
Is it because I already know
That you are going to break my heart.
Maybe not today, nor months from now.
But you surely will,
You will break mine for fear I will
Break yours.

You will be gone,
And I will have to learn
How to get through the day
Without your smile.
Learn how to forget the beginnings
the memories,
The laughter and tears.
Learn how to listen to the songs you love,
Without thinking of you.

You will leave,
As calmly as you came.
Leaving me with stormy seas
And cold sheets.
I will have to learn its not your side of the bed
Anymore.
And this hand you hold so naturally
Will be pocketed out of sight.
I will learn those three words again
Separate from you.

The sheets will be colder,
And the bed so much bigger,
The nights so much longer
When you're gone.
My lips will learn to whisper,
and my hands will learn to stay,
The pieces of my hesrt will mend together,
But will be colder from that day.

You will break my heart
Before you will ever learn
That I love yours so fondly
That I would never see it break.

pale flesh
against pale sheets
writing on pale paper
but her heart is red
and the vessels bleed love
and the pulse plunges deep
some days she is colorful
and others she is dark
but either way it's because of love
her hesrt tugs and weighs
like a bursen to feel so much
it's her blessing and her curse to linger with blood stained fingerprints all over him and open wounds in her flesh but he patches them with kisses
and they bleed together
I really appreciate any feedback. Thank you.
ill be there to catch you. if ever you should fall
if you ever need me just give me a call
there to hold you tight when the teardrops start
take away the pain from your broken hesrt

i will be your shoulder. on it you can cry
wipe away the tears till they all run dry
always there for you i will always be
anytime at all if ever you need me

always there to hold you when the teardrops start
when you feel the pain in your broken heart
thats what friends are for you got a friend in me
if you ever need me there i will always be

ill be there to catch you. if ever you should fall
if you ever need me just give me a call
there to hold you tight when the teardrops start
take away the pain from your broken hesrt

i will be your shoulder. on it you can cry
wipe away the tears till they all run dry
always there for you i will always be
anytime at all if ever you need me

I didn't know true love could exist
I didn't ever dream you could be real
Yet here I am standing in your arms
Here I am kissing your lips
Getting lost in your touch
Holding your hand in mine
And staring into your eyes.
My heart finally feels home
My soul is filled with light
I thought the shadows ruled the decalet lands where hope had gone to die
Where is the other edge of the blade
Where is the cruel mask to be lifted
Where is the needle to pop this bubble of joy
I can see the road ahead, I can see the struggle
Yet my hesrt holds no fear.
I can see the love, the joy that is to come
I can feel hope reborn in my heart
So I hold onto your arms
I rest my weary head against yours
And I breath in life
AsI feel for the first time what true love feels like

— The End —
