    compulsiveness to light

    looked within my eyes and said baby don’t cry, i’m still alive
    this world of mine where we don’t coexist and your death was always the wish
    i live, you grace the loss as your tombstone means nothing like what it says

    gone forever, but living perpetually
    i always knew, we were always the few
    phoenix to when, how we walked through corridors and danced in doorways
    feeling of compulsiveness and endless hope of tomorrow
    still remember how you washed your dishes as your legs moved back and forth
    the dart through the floor and needles in my skin

    i miss, kill to be with and die to feel bliss
    a wise opportunity of red, yellow and colors of danger
    i play with things and emotions that remind me of you
    just two, dark shades of truth that’ll always linger
    like long fingers in the night holding a child’s fright

    fear from blues, the unknowing truth of never obtaining peace
    forever and ever, always and all the empty hallways
    searching for you, the one with eyes that spoke truth
    the olden days of your youth that met days as you become used
    this life is your mere shadow, the hollow feeling of autumn and how the moment sparks dark days of october

    the grooves in the night and notes of another kind
    my hand through your hair and my arms around your neck
    i’ve touched life and i’ve touched time
    cried in my prime, but climbed through, found light and the reason why

    There was something really crazy about the way you said my name.

    Unfortunately, your want was different than mine and your mind was more youthful than mine, always changing from time to time.

    He loaded the bullet and begun roulette, wrote about how I smelled like whiskey and regret. His eyes said upset while his mouth spoke, it’s time to accept.

    nightmare

    yelling, screaming, saw a side of me you had never seen
    the truth was all there, my fears were all of you
    our conversation was genuine, but the words i forced
    how you saw my rage, anger and forces you’ve never

    you said you can’t while i cried in your lap
    friends said i was crazy, that you should give up
    that i wasn’t worth the time, but i knew the difference
    how the spit drew, the thoughts you always knew

    my innocence was your basking and my grasping was never your asking
    everything i feared sat in front of me with eyes that oozed
    the background said yield while i held my shied
    ready for battle even though i never had him, but my truth knew
    the way your body curves, how we moved, the way we grooved together

    words rise, i understand highs and lows
    the way things grow and blow with the wind, sink with the ocean
    strange from sea, sing with skies of the night and storm for thee
    yet things, they slow, pace without you and suddenly you’re gone
    stroking the bomb of what once was, waiting for it to detonate
    i’ve had my cake and maybe he never asked for it
    the nightmares still linger and the details are like fingers, digging for harm even though you knew my love for you was always warm

    You stole my soul but I figured it was because you needed it more.

    I’m a very intense person. The way I look in your eyes, my stance, how I walk and choose my words. The way I say your name and the look in my eye that says I need you here.

    I have an extremely distinct aptitude for the way I present myself and the energy I give off. It sounds egocentric, but they always remember my name, my mind and the force behind my voice.

    We looked at each other, smiled and agreed that maybe I’m too intense.
    Then we ate our food and I just smirked because I knew it was true.

    lunch with my ex

    wednesday morning

    walking the line and playing blind
    holding onto things i shouldn’t, grasping feelings i thought i couldn’t
    vine to vine and sunset into the night
    walking franklin, sitting, remenecising with thoughts of the cemetery
    death could only wish, if you could only feel bliss

    back to wesnesday morning, the thorns of your back
    the way every crevice felt like your kiss
    from night till dawn, i sing the same damn song
    you hit the bong, play with your drugs and drink your drink
    my whiskey, if only you could feel the pulse when you kissed me
    your vain, my veins, i pulsate for you

    transcend into a world where, intellectually, you might be stimulating
    where little things might’ve meant something
    grasp notions, to feel emotions other than the utter black that you ooze
    slow dance in your blues just to feel the endless bruise you seem to overuse

    rock into, back and forth — you were essentially the gravy for my waves
    the sweetness that brought my days
    now stuck in daze and past ventures that kill
    our words were only ever the icing on the cake
    i’ve had it, yet i still want it, like the way i awoke on wednesday morning
    before i felt the feeling that is drowning

    Some people live just looking for someone to die for.
