two steps towards the sunset
just a moment after sunrise
the sky looks its best yet
when I see it through your eyes

Dancing by,
A dead eyed darling,
As passersby cry out her praises:
"Such energy!
Such passion!"
She shrugs out a smile
As her shoulders start
Collapsing in on themselves.
Wear long sleeves
To disguise decaying flesh
And frankincense and myrrh
To disguise inevitable death,
Shaking hands with toothy monsters
And hand-made paperweight professionals
Who enter the threshold of accidentally
Pulling off a frail finger.
Pinned to a board of ages,
Chronically captured chronologically wrong:
"You seem so much older! You are so mature!"
Placing, onto fifth-grade-science-project bones,
A corset of expectations and
A garter of gold,
The tiny bird of a girl
Can't hear her songs over the
Sound of her body giving up.

Bury your wishes for me next to my corpse.
I am a human who people (sometimes by accident and sometimes on purpose) make into a magical fairy on a pedestal because I am very good at convincing people that I have my **** together. I do not have my **** together.
**** the word love. It brings a sour taste to my mouth just to say it... **** love cause love can get a person hurt or killed and it's the main cause of broken heart syndrome....**** the word love cause when most say it they dnt mean it, but say it cause it sounds good to them.... **** love cause it makes you cry, makes you have mixed emotions you never thought you could or would have.... **** the word love cause it had been misused by ppl for so many years that no one really knows the true definition.... **** love cause I'm tired of giving it out just to have myself looking stupid in the end.... **** the word love cause after a person hurt you that's the first word they use to sugar coat it, but still end up hurting you again..... **** love cause love doesn't suppose to hurt. but seems to be the only thing that's hurt me thus far!!!

How Men truly get caught up
I stand there in a dark room wondering where I am.. afraid of the dark and the weird  noises that I hear from afar... My mind begins to race feeling as if I'm bout to pass out.. I'm searching for some light.. but my feet are planted in one spot.. I began to let out a scream, but too afraid not truly knowing what's out there.. so I just stood there in deep thought.. let out a sigh and a tear dropped. How did I get here.. how did I end up in this spot.. where it seems so secluded and yet it's so very dark.. where are all the ppl.. where has everyone gone? Why am I the only one here.. but then I thought... your heart has been broken and it's taking your mind to a dark spot... in order to get out this place place you have to let go to see the light... stop lingering on the past for it has made you bitter inside.. for now until you let go.. your mind will stay on the dark side.
Let go and move on... life's too short to be bitter
