Breathe hope into me
Bring me back to life.
Let go, set me free.
Rise above all strife.

Heal broken, pained wings
With a shining light.
Listen as love sings
Burning, burning bright.

Now finally whole
Soaring in blue skies.
I have found my soul
And I have grown wise.

Here

I’m here. It’s the first thing I remember During each life’s awakening. For countless lives in the past and, Hopefully, countless into the future. I find you in plague-stricken lands, You find me dancing in the Roaring 20s. We find each other as waves crash down, Drowning us or merely caressing us. There are lives unremembered and Lives so full of memory they’re heavy. Our love beats through them all, An unending tempo of promise. I’m here. I’m here. I’m here.

My Romantic Song Lyrics

The night as the moon shines down below, if only you were there the leaves blow in the air a heart that loves like so a pathway be, let it be a pathway to your soul And let me sing you a lullaby sweet my dear in your dreams

Loving Me

Cold Alone Afraid Uncaring These things I felt So many times Each night when Nobody was around The fireplace was alive Roaring with life Right before My empty eyes Tears, Running down my face My fists, Clenched at my sides My teeth, Gnashing together Creating an Uncomfortable feeling in my jaw They left for the night Leaving me alone with the dog With my emotions And my unsteady thoughts So much was overwhelming Crashing and crashing Over and over again Like waves in a storm I knew better than To believe that What I was thinking Was an okay thing Just make this stress Make this torment Make it all stop Just

Love lost.

Love is livid like a live wire. it archs it stings an it can cut through most things. but once love turns fowl it turns to sickness it invades it corrupts to heart an soul of anything it remains. Love is lost foreevermore deeming an seeming all things are fowled so much more. Anger is hot and vibrante like colded steel it ends life it takes life like a booted heel. Power and Arrogance. Pitty and remorce. Pain and desire. Are all so tired. Wrath is a poision it festers and grows. Decite was never a part of those. Those who ride upon golden steed tend to miss everyone who bleeds. until the wrath an anger begins to boil. then a Deep blade in the

You make me ill to my core. It's the way you curl yourself beneith my skin and suck the love and passion from my bloodstream like a sun starved flower. You sit benith the open sky in your flowerpot, adorned with my words. I bathe you in the things you need, but yet you still rob my bones. You betray my trust when I need you most. Then you dissapear, like some godforsaken ghost into an early morning fog and all you leave behind is dew-drops on the lashes that protect my eyes. When you kiss, you consume. You burn like a forest fire, searing and violent, across the tips of

"You left your watch here" This place has become a store house for bad memories Except when it comes to you because the only thing you've ever left here was me and now I'm stuck here waiting for you to take me home But you cant There's a whole lot of distance between us, gaps that not even the sun knows how to swallow up We are mismatched cookie cutter pieces stripped and sewn to the same heart Your patterned like A Clockwork Orange- all violence and vulgar slurs while I'm shaped a little like Happpythankyoumoreplease- all I want is your love. All you give me is your bullshit

Amongst the Stars

I could always handle you when you were cold water dripping down the curve of my spine and kissing the heat from my shoulder blades but when you wound around my legs and tried to drip off the tips of my fingers I had to stop you and press you back against my sternum Your kisses tasted like flower petals with edges more jagged than razorblades but I never minded when you left me raw and aching Instead I pulled your lips to my throat and let you kiss away the stardust and peel the paint from my skin- You always said I was like an old house and benith the cheep wallpaper that covered my frame were hidden secrets. I told you they wer

on forcing passion.

imagine trees of tangerines, heavy sagging suns on all the branches. rip one down, introduce it to vivisection (though dead or alive, it never cries out), and squeeze until pulp like entrails forces itself between your dripping fingers. stare blankly at the mess and attempt to clean it, succeed only in staining your clothes golden. work the designs against your skin until the mistakes become tattoos and the rinds before you look less like refuse and more like fresh-hatched eggshells. as the morning scent stings your senses, reach up. don't look, just touch, and rip down another. and another. and another.

would it be terribly insensitive for me to say “good morning” in a cemetery? the sun lifts up slowly, and the dead sleep in late, as usual.

dear sarah, yesterday I tried to swallow the sun. it burned me up on the inside until even my skin was hot to the touch, and I thought of you. I hope you have found better ways than me to feel lighter. heaven knows there are days where I still trade my feet for concrete blocks and try to sprint to the finish line, but at least I have stopped straying towards the riverbanks. at least I get out of bed. most days, that’s enough. but if you tell me that most days life still feels like a choice you’re making every minute, I will tell you that I understand. I have spent years trying to outrun my sadness, sipping sunlight until my vision blurs and looking up only to realize I’ve been going in circles and calling it progress. every escape I ever made is a town I can never go back to and I’m not better for it. I carry so many graveyards around inside of me, and I’ve lost count of how many bridges I’ve burned because I confused loving with leaving. take my sadness away, I don’t

aphrodite passes the blunt to persephone, says you have to tell me how you did that, how you seduced hades and they sit there on the roof, the stars twinkling. persephone looks youthful in a way that’s untouched, as if she’s somehow eternally seventeen or made of sunshine. i didn’t have to do much, she says. and aphrodite who’s spent years reading gossip mags & articles about “ true love ” thinks about how she saw hades take off his leather jacket & wrap it around persephone’s shoulders, easy as breathing. kissed the side of her head. gave

Ugh, rhyming is hard but I think I pulled of rhyming and meter fairly well in this poem. I feel like I've finally overcome so many negative things in my past and I'm finally free. Enjoy and, as always, comments are
