Tied together
Destiny despite every choice
Burned together
Fire eternal saw all potential
Marked together
Through every kiss and every bruise
Fated
In the ashes was our love
I'm not leaving because
I've stopped loving you
I'm leaving because the longer
I stay the less
I love myself
It used to sound crazy and illogical and then i learned what hell on earth felt like
She stood at the edge
And stared at the sea
It called her name
It said "join me"
"No one here can hurt you
or break your heart
They can't take your hopes and dreams
And rip them apart"
How tempting it was
To jump off the edge
To join the calming sea
And come to an end
Then she thought of the boy
With striking blue eyes
Covered by a fringe
Black as the night
She sat there with
A smile on her face
As she watched the girl
Act with such grace
She watched the girl laugh
Music to her ears
She watched her with admiration
More than her peers
They were friends
Thats what everyone knew
A group with equal attention
A group of few
But she saw her as more
As different from the rest
She saw her as greater
The best of the best
My inner child
Picks up the phone
Without my permission
Begging to speak
To the one who makes her laugh
I explained about endings
But she explained about love.
When I told him to love me harder
I didn't mean it literally
Some girls get flowers, some get hickies
Some even get babies
But I got bruises
Because instead of showing me the world
My man showed me balled fist
And I hid from my family a broken wrist
It was harder to hide the black eye
I learned to keep my mouth shut
If not, my teeth would have to make room for his knuckles
While my knees unbuckled from the weight of his blow
Crying never did me much good
My mascara always ran before I ever could
When I told him to love me harder
I should've seen this coming.
You say you believe in me, in us
But I know I'll only let you down
I'll only hurt you, it happens every time
I'll shatter your dreams and break your heart
You're the best thing in my life, I'm the worst in yours
And I'd rather hurt you with goodbye than with betrayal
I can't be what you want, I'm sorry
This will hurt but you'll get over me
You'll find a true love, and live a happy life
I know you don't agree with me now but you will one day.
"Why wouldn't I mind, you're leaving me. I've said good bye so many times I can't even count it. Now all you are is just another goodbye. Do you not see a problem with that? If not, why not? I understand that people change and when presented with an opportunity such as the one you have, of course, people will take it. But it makes no change in the fact that you're just a goodbye.
A goodbye you told that would never come. A goodbye that was promised to never be spoken. Those unspoken words will now be said, and now I don't know what to believe when you tell me hello. Do I just say goodbye and then leave. Or do I say goodbye and linger, hoping for more?
In a place full of lights,
where kids could dance forever
They were looking at each other..
secretly , hiding in the shadows
miserably wanting to talk one another
Melodies were all around,
creating a sound,
bouncing in their hearts
Making them move..
unconciously , without desire
Until that one little moment,
when time was killed...
By a light in the eyes
From a smile in the mouth
touching bodies from their souls
what is this beautiful feeling that everyone always talks about?
she asks herself in the dark.
no one answers of course.
why would they?
she sits on the bed and thinks about it more as worry is taking over her.
will she ever know?
will she ever feel it?
her classmates, friends, as they call themselfes, always talk about it.
how they found the one.
how the girl in the class corner can't stop smiling because of him.
how she found him.
she hears her classmates talking about their feelings once again.
about what they feel about each and every one of the people they know.
but she,
she's scared
scared to get hurt
I want to live inside this
song with you. I want to walk
down its loping paths over
grown with dusk-lit moss (with you).
Paint your instant coffee and
drink your tear-down walls. Find the
ghosts in the corners the leaks
on rainy days watching the
cat watch the rain watch the way
you move so quietly a
toe broken in a slipper
note broken on the lip a
squeak so charged so telling of
the space inside this song. We’ll
sit in a claw-foot tub big
enough for the two of us
Happy and wistful,
I wrote it for you.
While reminiscing of our time together,
I wrote it for you.
Maybe I screwed up;
Maybe you screwed up.
Either way,
I wrote it for you.
Do you like the song?
I wrote it for you.
Do you feel my soul
Amongst the blots and lines?
Do you hear it?
When I sit at the keyboard,
I remember you.
As the music flows from the tips of my fingers,
