    You are like the sun
    An elusive being
    That everyone’s afraid of
    Afraid of getting to close, that
    One day you’d
    Incinerate their soul
    And turn it to dust
    But I took that chance
    Trying to defy the logic
    That everyone seems to have
    I guess I got too close
    To the center, to your core
    And all the confidence I once had
    Is now, of course, no more.

    My love......
    I have waited for this
    for a long time coming
    and now that it has happened
    you act as if it didn't
    why do you play with my heart
    this way?
    You toss it about
    then tear it to shreds
    knowing very well what
    I've been through before
    You're so confuzing with your ways
    you tell me there's nothing there
    and nothing will ever happen
    yet it does,
    it did
    and yet you still deny it
    I know you felt as I did
    at that moment
    My heart yearns for more
    I'm longing for your touch
    I'm fiending for your kiss
    I want you,
    I need you
    to be mine

    All the words I wish your fingers could feel


    All the times I’ve wished

    You could know

    The silent sorrow

    Lying stiff in my throat

    Like cold

    And broken teeth


    I wish you could hear

    The child that cries

    In my flesh and makes

    My bones ache


    I wish you could speak to my fear


    I wish you could hold me

    In your arms like oceans

    And soothe what my muscles remember

    All the bruises, all the sour hope

    All the screams and scared memories

    The cloudy days so dark

    I wondered if my eyes

    Were even open


    The days that I felt

    Like august, and that I, too

    Would soon turn

    To fall

    Ask me what time it is

    12 a.m.

    The way this looks

    Reminds me of someplace

    I can only

    Almost remember.

    That’s why I think I feel so sad.

    I remember it was really dark,

    Like this, outside

    Whatever the time.

    The bars on my spirit

    Remind me of my loneliness

    Cause I just sat there

    So all alone

    On that night

    Pondering the feelings

    Going through my mind

    Watching the shadows

    Dance in the distance

    The shadows on the wall

    Make me lonely now

    Creating black and white rainbows

    That mirror my heart.

    Do you remember
    How at night

    I’d worry
    And you’d press me tight
    Against you. Extinguishing
    The red flame
    Of my head against
    Your shoulder
    Smooth as chalk dust, you laugh
    In the face
    Of death and uncertainty
    Do you remember?
    You’d say time knew nothing
    Well now your gone
    And time is all I have left

    I guess what I
    Wanted was
    To hear

    Was you’d stay with me always.

    I guess what I

    Wanted was
    To see

    Those hands vowing
    Never to leave mine.

    I guess what
    I wanted was
    to know

    I am not loving in vain.

    I’m writing
    This letter to tell you

    I don’t love you anymore.

    I don’t miss you.

    I never have.

    The truth is,
    I tried,
    But never found
    Your adoration
    Anything other than arduous

    Your niceties clichéd,

    Your praise thoughtless,

    And it has become
    Unbearably obvious
    That you love me with
    All the originality
    Of romance novels;

    The manly man weakening
    The luscious flower.

    But do not be sad,
    Nothing is lost,
    Neither of us even loved
    The other truly-
    You only thought you did
    And I only wanted to.

    Watch my heart
    A living, beating organ
    As it self-destructs
    There's too much stress
    Lying on my shoulders
    I need something, someone
    To pick me up,
    Put me on an everlasting high
    I thought I found it
    Once. . . So long ago
    But that was just a dream
    Destroyed by a single touch
    These memories of you
    Deteriorating my heart

    Having mutilated
    And freed myself
    From the very wings
    Which for so long
    Held me aloft
    I have cast my heart
    Like a purpled fruit
    Toward the violent earth,
    Far from the heavens
    Of your arms.

    Is it insane?
    My life’s in your love’s hands
    Is it insane?
    How you’ve got a hold on me.

    When you’re near
    All of me trembles
    Slightest touch
    And I’m no good
    And when you walk away from me
    I want you more.

    Is it insane?
    I was the one who called them fools
    For being blinded by love
    Now it’s me
    Who can’t break free.

    Even though you’re with her
    I still feel you with me
    And I know when you kiss her
    You’re wishing it was me.

    Is it insane?
    Thought you’d be my king
    I’d be your queen
    It’d be complete as my heart sings
    Or was that just me imagining?

    Now I cry
    Like I’m your widow
    Without you
    I can’t contain
    This is my soul’s last refrain
    And you’re the one I blame.

    She can have you now
    I just want to fade away
    Sacrifice my life
    To relieve this pain
    So much pain
    Is it insane?
