Destroy forever with your paralizing eyes. I will not forgive these mistakes I have made, or the wounds that ive
inflicted in the side of your heart. I dont want to wake up from this dream, this constant backround noise that feeds
what I need. You're gone, not here, and I need your hand. This would be when I come to a hault, fall to my
knees and exhale
the edge is sharp
but our finger is drawn to its clean straight line
and the fear of drawing blood from a blade
too sharp
watching it bead and flow from the open wound
winding its way down our finger
tiny river of red
one
more glance
and we're caught in the glint of the steel
what would the second cut feel like
shall we try again
flinch,
drawn breath and a second line appears marked in red
the pain throbs for just one moment longer then necessary
then
we turn and walk away
only to look over one last time
and know what it feels like
to walk along the edge
and
feel both good and bad
in equal measure.
Dying Slowly
Dying slowly
Knives through my heart
Piercing rapidly
Only seen in the dark
Saw you walking
Never
turning around
Never caring
My emotions never found
Forced towards heartbreak
You didn't mind
You saw me
dying
You were never kind
Feeling alone
No one cares
Found by myself
Too many affairs

I love you more than me...
An Explosion of Love
I love you, I love you
I wanted you to know
I never will
forget get you
no matter where I go.
You came into my life
and touched it softly, at the core
Not only did you make me love
you gave me so much
more.
A friend who always listened
to what I had to say
you never left my side
you never went away.
A gaze to walk in
where I was always beautiful
someone else to live for
another kindred soul.
You gave me endless smiles
you gave me kisses, too
You let me feel all aspects
of the magic that is you.
You left me utterly breathless
at the sound of your voice
to hear you say "I love you"
made me inwardly rejoice.
The brilliance of your essence
is forever mine to reap
because I've truly loved you
that's a promise I can
keep.

When you walk away
you put cling wrap around my heart
and believe that will
keep it fresh
but the lack of air
makes it go stale
just like the lies you gave
and the trust you threw on the
ground
and trampled with your retreating footsteps.
Half starved for truth in affection
I scramble up the hill
hoarse
from all my cries, hellos and goodbyes.
Arms which learn to hold only the air
around their bodies
learn to push away
hard at the steps that come close.
Each motion closer to the boundary is viewed with suspicion and doubt
self talk and
insecurity speak through gritted teeth.
I am mortal and when you take aim and shoot arrows my way
If I do not move aside
fast enough
the poison hits home
and seeps slowly and painfully
through every nerve, fibre and tissue
until
I am polluted by an unsavoury touch
from a once beloved hand.
Let me not hate you with my eyes
for they lead the
soul to close.
A heart needs to be loved to give love
But not all love can cure the ails
or be antedote for the
deadly wound.
Some love can drain the blood from the body
and leave it a lifeless shell-
vampire without a soul to
call its own,
Without a name to carve upon the wooden doors
of a solid house between two.
When did the colour of
truth and love and beauty
turn black?
The day you painted the day sky dark
and took away the night's stars
stole
them from mine eyes
and threw the bag into a treacherous ocean of deceit and despair
sunken to the floor ..
treasure
for another time, another page, another story.
Not all the tales have knights which save the Princess fair -
Some have
them kill her all away
and bury faerytales like forget-me-nots by her side
in remembrance that ...
'Happily ever
after'
are just three words
spoken in haste
when someone runs away with the truth
that we caught sight of
'once
upon a time, ago'.
