Who are we without us? I crash You burn In this solar system We turn I feel your breath As I breathe A life source Just for me Don’t make me beg Don’t make me please The two of us Is all I need Don’t ask me to cry We are more than this Don’t ask me to die For this love we call bliss. … Thank you for reading!

In the darkness You design A fatal way To tell A lie In the darkness I cry Don’t belong Forget words To our song And if a promise Is just air Then what the Fuck is that? I sit in wonder Die inside When will you Call me back And if it was true You’re not true Nothing is ever true When the sky is blue There is more Than me and you Fall again Falling down Alice in Wonderland Without my crown Here we go I’m going to drown In the way a Smile is now a frown Don’t believe me? Well it’s true See the
What a mess You have now started All for what? For what? Are you trying to prove That you can’t lose? Life’s been a dream Let’s have a nightmare Don’t worry It’s just a little Night-time scare Peek-a-boo I used to know you In this dream You start to scream It’s time to wake up It’s time to wake up It’s time to wake up You’ve lost and You’re too late Goodnight Welcome to your new fate. … Thank you for reading!

Forever is too long to wait. When we said goodbye For the final time I told myself “If you love something, Let it go, and if It’s meant to be It will come back” So I let you go And I waited And waited And I waited so long That I fell in love With someone else And found something That was more than Empty promises I found something That was created from The sun, the moon, the stars, And the universe And I no longer waited for you But when you returned I knew it wasn’t meant to be See I had waited so long I found a love That would
Are you there? With so many dead ends And spiraling roads to nowhere I ask why you Why you A final roll call With one person missing While the officer finishes His last drop of whiskey Screaming out broken windows Cutting your hands trying to fix my heart You broke me But I broke you first The way pavement smells In the rain How come You never stayed? Each day The mirror shattered A mosaic of lies What a beautiful (fucked up) story You created For our eyes. Thank you for reading!

She looked up at me as I finished reciting poetry I’d scribbled down earlier. “Wow, I can’t believe you are so creative”.
