UntitledThere isn't anything

Untitled There isn't anything fair about this, unless a thorn crown is what you covet. There’s nothing sweet about this, unless bitter blood is your taste. How is it that you see eternity, while I see my burning cross? There’s nothing intoxicating about this, unless cheap cologne is my burnt brimstone. There isn’t a story to tell about us, unless I can rewrite our resurrection. How is it that Jerusalem cracked, while you remain unbroken on your throne?

I'll Wait Forever

You play my ribs like guitar strings and I Wonder what you really mean when you say, “Tell me what it’s like to feel alive, What it’s like to touch the sky, what It’s like to believe these nightmares Aren’t my life.” The sun falls, periwinkle blues to indigo, Indigo to deepest black and I whisper in your ear, “It’s like eating ice cream on your first day Of summer vacation, like hearing all your favorite Songs on the radio, like seeing the stars without Opening your eyes.” Sometimes, I cry in the middle of the night, because I feel fine but I don’t feel right, and you tel

Who I Am

I watch the ocean, As the waves hit the sand, And each grain that's found there, Is a little piece of who I am (Who I am...) There is one for my dignity, One for everything that I believe One for every lie I've ever told... Every secret that I've sold... Every love that grew cold... There is one for laughter, Because it fills my days There is one for every debt, That I have yet to repay There is one for all my friends, And one for all my sins There is one for every future, That could come my way The ocean is my song, Everyday I sing along The waves are the rhythm that moves me... Through them I am complete... I watch the

i wanna know where you are.

write how i feel? okay, this is how i feel. i miss you. you disappoint me over and over again, but i miss you. the way things are when i'm with you is just so fantastic i can't even explain what it does to me. i feel like the world is about to collapse when you're away and when you're here i can't gather the strength to breathe. everytime my phone goes off i want it to be you. i have written letters in my head that i would love to say but i can't. i want you to text me or call me or drop by my house just to say all these words that i keep wishing you will. i want you to play me the song i told you to write for me and i want you to see me on

dear self,

1. tomorrow is not worth waiting for. sure, there will be sunshine (with a slight chance of rain) and sure, some kid will be smiling, and yes, life is still moving on, but it's not like anyone cares. 2. you just want someone to love you, misery and tears and all. maybe you could spend saturdays curled up under the covers, memorizing the patterns of breathing. maybe you could count the seconds but the problem is that there would never be enough, the problem is that there's nothing there to love. 3. no one is listening. 4. i'd write you a letter, but you'd never read it. i'm stuck screaming into my own heart, wonderin

confessions of lostwithoutyou.

i'm not a liar. but i never told you that you always looked best in black. i liked how your skin would fade to a paler shade of perfection and your perfect teeth would glint a little brighter. and i could pretend for an evening that you were my black and white dream come true. and with you there would be no shades of inbetweens and no grays for us to get lost in. i never told you but it's true.   + i was never able to tell you, but i hate the way you cook your 'specialty' eggs. you always laughed over your shoulder and told me that they are the best food i’ll ever eat, that i was blessed to get the chance to taste them melt

paint.

i told you that i liked boys who smoked cigarettes, because then i knew that they needed something. i told you that i liked roses without the thorns, because then they wouldnt hurt so much when they got picked. i told you that i liked it when you held my hands because i didnt feel quite so lonely, not quite. i told you that i'd love you 'til the stars exploded and the clouds devoured us- and you said nothing. you said nothing. *** (here's a little history.) in vietnam people hurt other people. people burned themselves- (i wish i was that brave.) they threw chemicals and hid in the ground and laughed when the others cried. its

you.

I'd say you remind me of a flower but to do so would be an injustice when I pick flowers, they die- you've only shown me how to live.

Je t'aime

There is firewood where my bones should be, and wires in my veins pumping electricity and everytime we talk my heart heats up and I've never felt a flame this warm.

first kiss

I will be the rolling waves, and you can be the sandy shore I'll kiss with salty lips, and then keep coming back for more
