POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Let Me Just Say, I Hate the Way I Love You
Rip out my heart and replace it with
every way you've broken me.
I swear I'll still love you.
Kill me now and bid me farewell
Forget everything we ever wanted
And I swear I'll still love you.
Break me apart and rip me piece from piece
Look at my tears and laugh
And I swear I'll still love you.
Destroy my dreams and all I am
Make me reopen these wounds and wish they had never closed
And I swear I'll still love you.
Kiss her good and tell me how you love her
Read between the lines and know I'm breaking
Bit by bit.
And I swear I'll...
every way you've broken me.
I swear I'll still love you.
Kill me now and bid me farewell
Forget everything we ever wanted
And I swear I'll still love you.
Break me apart and rip me piece from piece
Look at my tears and laugh
And I swear I'll still love you.
Destroy my dreams and all I am
Make me reopen these wounds and wish they had never closed
And I swear I'll still love you.
Kiss her good and tell me how you love her
Read between the lines and know I'm breaking
Bit by bit.
And I swear I'll...

Back To You
My high is leaving now,
My thoughts are slowing down.
Back to you again,
Not something I enjoy.
You aren't the one I want,
Nor the one I love.
Yet my heart beats in a rhythm
Only you can create.
I don't want you.
You are nothing to me.
My high has fallen to its low,
And back to you, I know.
I hate this part,
As much as I hate you.
So leave me now,
As my high leaves me too.
My thoughts are slowing down.
Back to you again,
Not something I enjoy.
You aren't the one I want,
Nor the one I love.
Yet my heart beats in a rhythm
Only you can create.
I don't want you.
You are nothing to me.
My high has fallen to its low,
And back to you, I know.
I hate this part,
As much as I hate you.
So leave me now,
As my high leaves me too.

Only you <3
I love you today, tomorrow, and yesterday.
And all the words you speak to me, I'll remember how to say.
You're the only thing my heart beats for,
Your love is my addiction and I always want more.
Your touch is like nothing i've been gifted to feel,
So your heart I will surely steal.
It's those three simple words you say,
That make me love you today, tomorrow, and yesterday.
<3

Soul Stealer
It's hard to see the theif you are behind those blue eyes.
It's hard to feel the pain you've caused, when your words are so tender.
It's hard to taste the venom you hold, when your lips are so sweet.
It's hard to hear the hatred in your voice when it comes out as such a sweet sound.
It's hard to feel anything but love, when your touch is electrifying.
It's hard to feel weak, when an actor like you is there to support me.
It's hard notice alot of things, when you're in the arms of a soul stealer.

You Wouldn't Notice....
When you look at my smile and hear my words,
You wouldn't notice it.
When you look at me deeply, and i turn away,
You wouldn't notice it.
When i cry from laughter,
You wouldn't notice it.
When i tell you my "secrets",
You wouldn't notice it.
And when i push you away, break your heart,
you still won't notice it.
That im dying inside, im filled with pain.
That im scared to death. And dying in vain.
No, you still won't notice it.
You wouldn't notice it.

you still won't notice it.

No, you still won't notice it.

You Went Too Far This Time.
The pain in your eyes,
the sadness in your sighs..
Your arms, all covered in scars,
The feeling of love, so far.
The burning thought of being gone,
continuing to press on.
Deeper and deeper you slice,
keep rolling your dice.
One last mistake, due to all the hate,
and you have met your fate.
Your blood gathers in the floor,
and all you want is more.
More reasons to let go and not care,
more reasons to explain why it's not fair.
More reasons to do it again,
more reasons for YOU to win.
Tell yourself...
the sadness in your sighs..

Cry
Those nights when you just want to cry,
it call comes out with a simple sigh.
Your eyes overflow with tears,
bringing out all the times you gave into fear.
Reminding you of every moment of pain,
on these nights, you're far from sain.
Every emotion pouring out,
like a small child you simply want to pout.
Blame everyone else for all your problems,
because you simply don't know how to solve them.

and you just want die....

Restless
My body demands it's sleep,
But on my mind you keep.
I am restless.
My dreams want me,
But images of you are all i see.
I am restless.
Sleep, is all i want to do,
But my heart aches for you.
I am restless.
Rest is all i seek,
But you've got me so weak.
I am restless.
The night desires to consume me,
But you're all i see.
I am restless.
My body fights my heart,
You've got me falling apart.
I am restless.
You have consumed my every thought,
Yes honey, im caught.
You are all i want, all...
But on my mind you keep.
I am restless.
My dreams want me,
But images of you are all i see.
I am restless.
Sleep, is all i want to do,
But my heart aches for you.
I am restless.
Rest is all i seek,
But you've got me so weak.
I am restless.
The night desires to consume me,
But you're all i see.
I am restless.
My body fights my heart,
You've got me falling apart.
I am restless.
You have consumed my every thought,
Yes honey, im caught.
You are all i want, all...

Tell me...?
Are you really out there?
Do you really care?
Are you my soul mate?
Or are you my eternal fate?
Are you really real?
Can show me what it's like to feel?
Are you true?
Tell me please, who are you......?
Do you really care?
Are you my soul mate?
Or are you my eternal fate?
Are you really real?
Can show me what it's like to feel?
Are you true?
Tell me please, who are you......?

My Greatest Find
You are the break in the darkness, my light
You are the one that fill my dreams at night.
You're the only one who can really hurt me,
And in a room full of people you're the only one i see....
you are a mystery to my mind,
And yet you are my greatest find.....
You are the one that fill my dreams at night.
You're the only one who can really hurt me,
And in a room full of people you're the only one i see....
you are a mystery to my mind,
And yet you are my greatest find.....

hateful love
Love is a meaningless word,
its all ive ever heard...
I want it to be real,
Something ive always longed to feel.
but every time i fall for it,
It just adds another person to forget....
It leaves me empty and broken,
Takes my breath away and leaves me unspoken.
Gives me hope, only to take it away,
Leaves me lost with nothing left to say.
It fills my eyes full of tears,
and brings to life my greatest fears.
Love is never real quite fake,
And goes around looking for more hearts to break.
