The shadow of your hand lingers on my skin,
While tire tracks engrave upon the dirt.
The day you left was the day I changed,
The memory of you will never be the same.
I wish you could see the debt you owe,
In a narrow crevice
where echoes the hunting hawk's screech,
a cougar asks a bear to explain
When the rain has dried on windows, do you think of me?
The aftermath of a downpour
Nothing but a resin left, ugly, tainted
Or do you hire the cleaners out? wipe away any memory, start fresh
New windows
He called me family. He told me family is forever and so were we. He told me no one will ever love you as much as I do. I believed the pretty lies and was a pretty girl. I kept him happy and lost myself in the process.

A 16-year-old died last night
And he felt no Love
Only the Darkness
His life consisted of
His mantra to the world
Was, "Reveal the truth!"
However when it came
He sought to delude
Turn back the clock and head back to the very start.The very first page, when I still had no broken heart.When all was right in the world and I was still his little girl.When I was still naive and I still believed in me. Roads take us away, we pic
She tried drawing herself as a lover on the canvas of his mind
He erased all her sketches when her called her just a friend
With one innocent word, she knew it was over then
The painful words escape her lips
Piercing my fragile heart with every word she utters
I try to not show the pain but every now and then I slip
To be loved by a beaten soul
Is a special kind of love
To be loved by one who is not given it
Is beautiful
To know I am special enough to hold such a delicate heart within my rough hands
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to say whatever you want without ridicule?
Or maybe you want to do physical things like grabbing a can without issue.
I spent my days picking up seashells
Running away from the rising waves
So the chill of ice water would not make my feet go numb
So I waited patiently for each low tide
You hide yourself from everyone else
Because there's a monster inside.
He can't be controlled by anyone, not even you
But you talk a good talk and lie about the truth.
Her alarm goes of and she hits it with all her strength
Her bed is soaked from the night before
She gets her favorite jeans and matches it with her favorite shirt
The sterling silver and stripped car,
with the squealing high pitched sound.
May it break on a back road away very far
and leave him stranded, never found.
The boy who tried that morning to hit me,
I’m no good at making choices so I let my hands do the talking,
Blocking my heart from letting out what its been calling.
My back is pinned in so tight I can no longer feel my heart beat,
We were friends back, years ago
Back When She was a awkward nerd and my hair was nappy.
Now We're all grown up, reunited,
And All I want is to make her happy.
True luv doesnt hurt intentionaly, reality is abuse always hurts~ Fist or words the damage is the same. I can forgive the pain of ur fist faster than ur words. None i'll ever forget, foolishly most i'll forgive.
Invisible scars that aline her armTransparent bruises that do no harmMake up covers those nasty scarsLook at her now and look how far
I am taking the slow path, and so
She who cannot comprehend that she and I are different
Feels it is her right to say "you'll never be anything" to me
"She's just a burden," to my father
You tell me I'm pretty much perfect
That any time you spend with me is worth it
That I'm different from all the ones before
That I'm the only one you could adore
That my nose is a little long
Burning slowly
Like I'm set on fire
This can't be good
It doesn't always feel this way
The slice of rose thorns severing
My veins
Tearing me apart from outside to inside
A brewing poison
My love my love
Look only at me
My love my love
You belong with me
When your gone, I can't stand the silence
I go insane.
My love my love
Stay with me
My love my love
Love is like a candle.
At first it burns bright,
And then it dims,
And then goes out.
Just like a candle.
And all that's left is a broken, melted, burning, oozing pile of melted wax.
I used to ache for you to know me.For you to wonder about my depths and reason, For you to fall into my cracks and find pieces of yourself you never knew you lost.I used to wish to hear those words drip from your lips,
For that which love does say
And whisper rather than shout
Only to cause some fray
Then leave both sides to pout
Love lasts long only when it wants to
Often it breaks to become an empty shell
Maybe one day we can lay there and count all the stars Not having one worry about life behind closed bars
I promise someday we'll catch every star and one day we'l reach for the moon
My bones hurt as they hit the bed.
My stomach empty like a bitter morning from a nightmare.
My tears burn as they meet my face.
The rumbling in my heart scares me as it pounds me down.
How many times will I
hear the same story of a
girl who saw a boy and
fell in hopeless, mournful love?
How many times will I
