The Widow

She won't stop screaming. She won't let me hold her.
She's so far gone, that she's been reduced to this.

Her skin is scarred but it still bleeds.

Eyes are black from decay. Her body.

Constantly decaying.

Her jaw unhinges and she screams.

Long, deep, as if she could vomit out the pain, heart poisoning.

She wears the remainder of a white dress in memory of who she was.

 She wants the pain to end, she wants to end, but still she lives on,

Zombified inside of me.

She loves the same, as she always has, and always will,

And it's killing me. He's gone.

And she won't stop screaming.

Trust

It all turns to fear,

the love that never dies is locked inside.

I am sent spinning when we dance,

velocity drives me into the ground.

We can't dance anymore,

until I can trust you with my hands.

The Love That Never Dies

Come and witness
The Amazing
Immortal Love

Starved and left alone
Deprived of needs,
 affection, attention...

It filter feeds
off of the air you breathe

Dormant in my chest
witness the rise and fall
of the Love That Never Dies
No matter how hard I try

Silver Lining

I don't even really know how to put this.

It's a feeling, when I think about you. The way you look at things.

Your eyes. Your mind. Your body. I knew them. I understood them.

My understanding has left a silver lining on my heart, when I see you.

And how nothing in your eyes, your mind, your body, has changed.

I probably miss you.

Or maybe the scar tissue will always be sensitive.

Dreams

Constant hazy eyes

I see you in everyone

I am dreaming of a life with you

In everyone I meet

My heart is in a constant state

 of breaking

What You Gave to Me

You gave me hope
False hope, the truth was true,
And I never knew

You gave me scars
The backs of my hands, third degree burns
Crawling house fire to house fire

You had me dreaming
A love that burned the world down
I wanted to believe

A heart bigger than my body
You gave me life again
I couldn't breathe without you

You are long gone
I will never forget what you gave
And you are loved

?

You are not the most beautiful
thing I have ever seen.
You pale in comparison
to other brilliant things.

Your heart is kind, but it is not wise,
You cannot see with the mind,
I sometimes feel you are blind,

You are not there when I need you,
but you are when I don't.
And that's enough to get me through
the hardest times without you.

You think I'm brilliant.
I think you're lovely.
We think each other good
yet we are still so lonely.

I am loved by you,
and I love you so,
I don't know what that means yet,
and perhaps I will never know.

I suppose in the end
knowing wouldn't be much fun.
Because heartbreak is a curse,
and I'm not sure I'm the one.
