I didn’t mean to impose
On your feelings
Your space
Your thoughts
I could be better if I chose
I’ll just be quiet
Because I love you, give me your passwords
Because I love you, leave your friends
Because I love you, I will be your first
Because I love you, do not look at any boy
Because I love you, do not play volleyball
Because I love you
I lost myself and another too
I let you change me
Without staying true
Because I love you
I let you do
Whatever you want
I then become blue
Because I love you
Hands clamped, fingers warm, beautiful sky
You know you're beautiful, he says, I love you, he says
Dinner dates, lovely scenery, beautiful clothing
You shouldn't wear so much makeup he says, you don't need it
The putrid smell of alcohol that stains the rug,
and a chilling feeling up my spine erupts with a tug.
I look up to you with a petrified gaze,
an angered yell comes out with your drunken blaze.
Because I love you I will forfeit my words of manipulation,
I will offer support as you follow your own desires and aspirations.
Because I love you I will step off my not so noble steed,
And accept with great humility,
if he loved you, he wouldn't do that.
my mother whispered to me. she looked at me with such concern. her tone of voice whispered everything else she wanted to say but didn't.
"I have never felt this way"
I believed you
"You're the first thing I think of in the day"
But you said that to another, that's my cue
But I give you another chance
You always liked watching fires
You told me; the colors made everything brighter
That when the sparks crackled you got goosebumps
Chills would rush through your body
Because I love you...
I will be loyal to you,
forgive you, and trust you.
I will have faith in you,
always support you, and
believe in you.
I will never hurt you, phyically or
Remember when we’d stay up until 3am, talking about how
lucky we were?
The way we told each other everything, bared our
Might as well be sober but you never are
I couldnt believe that you went so far
one like equals one fight
bruises on my cheeks are quite a sight
makeup on to try and hide
when we met you didnt have this side
I once asked my mother
I once asked my mother to stop
drinking
When she asked why, I warned
her of the dangers it could bring.
I am sorry but I am not.You were the most stable thing in my life, but since the moment you walked in you took the form of a pesticide. The label reads that it will help protect your plants, but says nothing about the negative side effects.Of cour

You open your mouth the sun and spring fall out
My mouth parts show casing a raging winter and snow
I spit venom a desolate smog
You speak of beauty a method of change and good faith
You say its always me
You say its all my fault
You say i caused everything
For once can YOU! take the blame
I am tired of you saying their name
So tired of the way you treat me
Once upon a time, you were my Prince Charming.
You made me fall in love with you, that magical night.
You captivated me.
You made me believe that I needed you.
"Standing Tall"
I walked behind you to the door
Your shirt flapped in the wind
You glanced backwards but let it fall
Behind the wood I was pinned
You still exist in my mind
Even though a year has gone by
Our love died
I did not forgive you
I do not know why
You still have a piece of my heart
Each time I try to move on
Hey old friend, I'm glad you're doin fine Thought I'd stop in just to drop a line Heard you were worried Bout my life Guess you heard people didn't treat me right Hey old friend, did you forget What you did to me, do you regret? Cause though othe
Its amazing how I feel in love with you
You were a pain in the a** and so foolish
But you made me fall, how clever.
Let me teach you how calloused hands and beautiful galaxies go together.
See I still remember the first time I saw him, I saw galaxies in his eyes,
I remember his calloused hands and how I assumed he was a hard worker,
I thought I was whole,
I thought I loved him.
I didn't think of my soul;
It would later turn dim.
I knew in my heart,
I felt a great pain.
But we couldn't be apart,
I thought I was whole,
I thought I loved him.
I didn't think of my soul;
It would later turn dim.
I knew in my heart
I felt a great pain.
But we couldn't be apart,
Not even in shame.
He cheated…I said I’m sorryHe moved away…I said I miss youHe lied…I said I’ll be better He manipulated me…I said I love youHe brought out the worst in me…I said I’m so happy
Sometimes I see you
You're still beautiful as ever
All the words you say
You say,
"I love you"
With those words
I always believe
I start to think about our future
The possibilities we may have
I am the queen of this temple
And no one is usually allowed inside.
Ruling with fear is not my forte.
I let you pass through the gate into my private space
This is the story of a girl
Who was naïve and not brave at all.
This girl fell in love,
As many do,
Not even thinking about what love was.
Was it butterflies in your stomach?
Growing up young
oblivious, gullible, innocent.
Succeptible to anything.
I had thought I found love.
It seemed like a miracle,
Like it was sent from above.
Only to find out,
he who I loved
You spoke sweet symphany and transfered love to my lips.
You showed me the beauty I couldn't see in myself.
You held me through the dark times and told me it would all be okay.
Little did I know you WERE the dark times;
No breath
Silently weep
A shattered heart yet with no sound
I'm torn
Look down
You don't belong
The world is too cruel for angel
It's time
Goodbye
With trembling hands and a runaway heart,
I finally confess
He was never good for me.
Over time,
The lacerations He left became
I say love is like the sun,
when present it brings warmth and joy,
when too harsh it can leave you with burns,
when hidden it can leave you cold
The heart within me burns like a fire, to have you in my arms is all I desired.
Like the swift cold air you were gone and all that was left was me alone.
In a deep dark hole I stayed in hopes that you may return.
