I'd give you the world,
if only I could hold it.

I'd dry your teary eyes,
just to see them shine.

I'd hold your hand forever
and never let go.

I'd love you forever,
but I already do.

Diamonds and Porcelain

Must keep digging, have to keep digging. The voices tell me to. They tell me to keep going. I have to see the diamonds. They were underneath, you see, underneath the porcelain. And that’s underneath the dirt, you see? The pearls within the marble bust would glisten ‘til the shadows turned them cold. I didn't wanna listen. I didn't wanna listen! They were clattering against my ear all the promises that ashes, ashes should have turned to dust. I was greedy. I took too much, because I was not taught to attach, but to prosper. Oh, but it was fun. The w

A truth is a lie you believe in, convince enough people and it will become a fact.

The Note

A note left Upon his pillow Holding whispered remorse. Crisply folded, Neatly tucked away With a shadow of rain. Shaking handwriting Melting with diamonds That fall from my eyes. Filled with love, Filled with hate, Filled with me. The note lies, Waiting to be opened By his shaking hands. Goodbye.

Letters

I found the letter I wrote you today Actually, I found three. I read them to myself over and over And at the time they were so satisfying But deep down I know now That it's not what I wanted to say I wanted to tell you so many things; I was so hurt when you left and I don't really know why We were never truly together Yet every night I cried. I wanted to tell you to come back Because you made me so happy I never asked for forever, I didn't need an eternity I just wanted you to be honest with me I swore to myself that I was through with you Because I knew there was nothing left I could do I don't feel broken anymore,

Odd times

Things aren't always what they seem Take the dice and shake it twice Come on come on Let life roll to pieces It may seem odd But you are strange Time ticks to the sound of my heart As you wave your goodbyes Forever the sun was in your eyes It may seem odd But you are strange Please take my heart as you take my hand Don't pick the dice up Cause this ain't a gamble Just one blow and we're gone It may seem odd But you are strange Take a wink and a kiss I guess this is goodbye

She Talks With Monsters

This girl never had a fear of monsters. She allowed them to rest on the insides of her eyelids, the crook of her neck, the empty spaces of her chest cavity. She had no fear, there were much scarier things in this world than darkness, clawing at her back. Living for the night she etched her dreams upon the bars of her cage whispering of centuries past because she truly missed the sun, grass on her back. Frosty Decembers have her forgetting what it feels like to love, but she knows who she is— she doesn't need the taste of cigarette ash suffocating her inside her own flesh. November skies tore open this night, ripping a hole i

Raoul's Death

All Christine could do was stand there, watching in horror as her beloved fiancé and demented tutour locked blades. She couldn't live with another grave before her. She just couldn't. In no time, Raoul was at the Phantom's mercy. He pleaded, oh how he pleaded, but to no effect. The Phantom plunged his blade through him, and kept doing it over and over again. Christine could glimpse a river of scarlett spraying on Erik's face. Now it truly was distorted. Every emotion she had felt before left her. She was left limp, pale, dead. Tears, very warm tears, trickled down her cheeks, but she couldn't feel them. She had nothing left to

The Girl Who Was Afraid To Be

She speaks to me fondly of passions and talents, of guitars and stars, with such breathless intensity then stops short and apologises for speaking at all. All because somewhere in her life, someone she loved broke her heart by ignoring her beautiful words and telling her to shut up, keep it down, nobody cares. People aren’t born sad. We make them that way.

My Worst Ememy

I can't stand her, The girl in the mirror. She's me, but not me. She's the girl the world sees, Happy and always laughing, Always kind and polite, As friendly as she needs to be. That's not me. I'm sad and feel like crying, Kind to only the people I know and like Faking friendliness to strangers when I have to. I can't stand her, The girl in the mirror. She's annoying with all she pretends to be. I want to be someone else. I'm tired of the constant fights with her, She always wins. So I take it out on her when I'm alone, And no one can stop me. I'm my own worst enemy, You see. Mentally beating myself up, At first, Try

Anorexia

'You're so skinny!' 'You don't need to lose weight!' 'You look great!' Lies…all lies. I know the truth. Too many pounds here, too many there. Hips, stomach, butt… I want it all gone. I need it to be gone. Eat less, exercise more…it's such a simple problem to fix. So I eat when I need to. Doesn't even need to be everyday. It's usually something small. Carrots, celery, a handful of nuts…It's just enough to get me through the day. You want to know my daily routine? Fine. I run a few miles everyday. It took some time to get used to it, but I had to adjust to reach my goal. No one else knows I do it. I wake in the wee h

Ich bin

Ich bin, der kommt, ich bin, der geht, ich bin, der immer schon hier war. Ich bin, der wacht, ich bin, der spricht. Ich bin der Hauch vom letzten Jahr. Ich bin die Nacht und bin die Früh. Ich bin der Mond (die Sonne nie). Ich bin das Wort, ich bin das Buch, ich bin, der all die Worte sucht, bin der Fürimmer, bin der Moment und der die Zeit manchmal verpennt. Aber ich bin. Ich bin der, alles, der nirgendwo zu Tod betrübt und liebesfroh. Ich bin, der kommt, ich bin, der geht, ich bin, der immer bei dir war: Ich bin der Wind in deinem Haar.
