My heart
and head were
at a war that
was anything
but civil…
Just a senseless
moral battlefield
with me
wandering lost
in the middle.

Four Scents
Patchouli,
sandalwood,
musk and
cigarette smoke.
Seemingly
simple scents…
That transport me
right back to you.
Easier with Ink
I want to
put it on paper
and write it
all out,
Because nothing
sounds right
when it comes
from my mouth.
For You
You saw me
when I couldn’t see myself.
You adored me
when I thought I was unlovable.
You caught me
the second you saw me start to fall.
You saved me
when I thought I was unsalvageable.
So I will be here for you.
Not because I feel like I owe you…
but because I love you just as much.
Nothing Left
Why can’t you
just leave me alone?
There’s nothing
left to say…
You’ve already cut me
down to the bone,
With nothing more
to scrape away.
Caught
It was a
web of lies
so intricately
spun…
I couldn’t
tell where it
ended…
Or how it
had even
begun.
Acceptance
I’m left
with regret,
and I’m left
with remorse…
But no apology
will matter,
until acceptance
runs it’s course…
Breathless
I just can’t
understand when
people tell
me to rest...
How can I
stop my mind
from running
til it’s out of breath?
Unraveling
The threads
around me are
slowly unraveling,
But this fabric
seems to be not worth
salvaging…
Lead Balloon
You filled me up
like a lead balloon,
but I couldn’t float
when I was full of you.
I would rise up
but then I’d fall,
because to you
I was nothing at all.
