Trust me.
I'm the model that smiles with jagged perfect teeth that sink into your dreams,
Marble eyes as blue as the Caribbean Sea swaying with the breeze of your youth,
Coated skin that shines like the porcelain heart you try to protect from the world,
With bottled hair as golden soft as the rays of sunshine that surround all your happy memories.
Trust me.
I am the man in the bar with dimpled chin and sweet eyes that beg your salvation,
Stories spilling between chiseled lips to tug at your tattered heart strings,
With a laugh that plays along the strings of your heart like an old guitar,
Leaving bitter sweet kisses on your sleeping eyelids a
Smoke rises,
Lifting melancholy and depression with it.
Smiles shine,
Surrounded by the only happiness she knows.
Brothers dearest,
Best friends she's ever known.
Finding Home,
Come to peace with the past and the present.
Barking laughter,
The sun has set but can't hold a flame to her now.
Stronger Bonds,
She's finally found the Family she was meant for.
Letting Go.
It's a hard road to travel,
And she thought it to be one traveled alone.
But she stands on its edge,
In the dark and in the cold,
The rain beating against her pounding breast.
It mingles with her tears and she shivers.
But she can feel them with her,
Her friend
I can't look into that bottomless pit.
I can't bear to,
To stare into the emptiness.
I can't,
Because I'm terrified of what I'll find.
Please don't.
Please don't make me look within.
Why won't you believe me when I say it's a scary place?
Why do you laugh?
Do you think me to jest over this matter?
No!
I know what is within!
I know what boils just beneath the surface!
The rage.
The hate.
The filth.
I know what lingers in my shadows,
And I won't look deeper than a glance.
I refuse.
You have no idea,
No clue what resides in my black abyss.
You can't even begin to fathom the emotions,
Swirling in a never ending witch's brew
it escapes
from your lips
like a muted song -
one lone melody
to catch
your breath
and trill along
your cheekbones -
an inhale of
temptation
(my weary fossil love, my sin)
an exhale of thin-fingered
hope
but no note
to carry on
she's been gone awhile
but I'm still here
I can see her smile
I can taste her fear
it's all I have left
as the morning arrives
I will morn her death
but I'm not alive
on the inside
I'm not alive
I've been gone awhile
within my mind
I feel like a child
who's been left behind
I hold my breath
as the night invades
feeling buried alive
in a shallow grave
on the inside
I'm not alive
buried in my mind
I'm not quite alive
I still wake up every day
and the world keeps spinning
starting over again
but not from the beginning
a few pieces lost
but my strength is gaining
from too high of a cost
but you don't hear me complaining
I keep it inside

A Souless Flame, A Flameless Soul
Listening to music but not too loud.
Im thinking too much, need to write this down.
Life's getting to me what would seem a bit early.
I hate to see myself as so unclean,
or feel like I'm not proud of anything,
but I do, this wasted time is threatening.
I know I'm young but this feels like everything,
and everything depends on us connecting,
us connecting my thoughts to your hopes,
and hope its what you want.
Thats all that ever passes my mind.
Should you care and is it worth your time?
Not knowing how to feel wieghs upon my heart most.
Not knowing who to trust when they have nothing to show.
Not knowing what to do, about as l
I won't say I love you,
Not that it's not true.
I won't call you 'babe' or 'cutie' or 'hun',
Because, what would I say when I'm done?
I want to take you out every night
(Not that I wouldn't in the light),
I want to kiss you and smother you,
But then what would I do?
But with the little things,
You should have an idea,
That when the big things come
You really are my dear.
For me to love you now,
Would be the sweetest thing,
But I shall wait a while
And send a kiss in the wind.
And when you meet that breeze
You'll know exactly what you mean,
So a silly little child like me.
So wait, for that kiss upon the wind.
So wait, f
