LOVING YOU IS AN ART
Loving You Is an Art ????
Loving you is an art,
Not just words, not just emotions,
Not just romance.
It is like carving a linocut,
Each stroke, each cut—
Careful, gentle,
So I do not wound the sketch,
The same way I hold your heart,
Responsible not to hurt you.
Loving you is an art,
Like stringing beads with patience.
And when the thread breaks,
And the

The Love That Died
I’ll never forget when we first met
Fireworks lit up the dark night skies
As I held you tightly in my arms
I could see the love in your eyes
With you my world finally felt whole
I believed your love would be my last
Our life together was that of dreams
But all good

What we had
“WHAT WE HAD”
Our path was foggy,
But somehow , we made it clear.
We built something new,
Something that filled our hearts.
It touched every edge of us,
Left no part untouched.
We were in love,
Deeply.
But as we

Letting Go Of Past Mistakes
Pictures there upon the wall, each person once held me dear.
At times we were living together, now not one lives near.
Each has a life they must live and thoughts on which to ponder.
My life goes on, I grow old and still I can’t but wonder,
How different things could have been, if love we didn’t squander.
It’s

Midnight pining
Those minuscule gaps,
the dripping from the tap,
that soon became the sea between you and me
My fading glow, with the things I didn’t know.
How you’d take my years as your sign to go.
But am I ever in your head, dead of night, in your bed?
Do your hands still reach for the phone?
Does

Fcuk your fcuking shiiiit
Honestly;
F*ck your "I'm sorry".
F*ck your remorse,
F*ck your stories.
F*ck your use of force.
F*ck your attitude,
F*ck everything you endorse.
F*ck your request for food.
F*ck your tone of voice.
F*ck your stupid car.
F*ck your drink of choice.
F*ck your guitar.
F*ck anything that'd make you rejoice.
F*ck your anger issues.
F*ck your screamo sh*t.
F*ck your fake tears and sniffles.

My best friend
I don't even like this wine that I'm drinking,
But it's here,
It might stop me from thinking.
Tonight he grabbed me and threw me,
Onto the ground.
Then his foot landed in my ribs,
I still hear the sound;
The hollow thump,
A gasp leave my lungs;
Him shouting at me
"you had enough?".
Yeah, I have.
I'm sick of all of this

More
More fool me
For hoping you would change,
You promised me the world
Yet everything’s the same.
I’ve told you that I’m broken
And I can barely cope,
You said you’d make more effort
Filling me with hope.
Actions speak louder
Than your words can ever say,
I’ve already waited forever
So I won’t wait another day.
I’m not sorry that we’re over
I’m sorry that

I'm Hurt
I wish you were there
When I needed you the most
I thought you were the only one
Who will protect me, at any cost
When my trembling hands
Wiped off the heat of tears
I was going through so much
All that my heart had always feared
The pain I felt right in the chest
Strong enough, to forget the

Senses ' Di-Vices
Hear, hear!
I can feel her heart drift
Who knows why she loves me
I hate the smell of Cupid’s grift
She puts her finger to my lips
I taste her brüt silence
Behind my eyes
Dionysus watches neon signs shift

Synthetic Beauty
I saw Bianca.
One glance, and the eyes might believe she was a queen,
but her beauty was borrowed —
purchased in pieces, stitched together with coins and illusions.
Her hair, long and flowing,
was taken from the head of an old woman
who died alone with a mind in ruin.
It now sits like a crown of foreign spirits
on the head

El Mismo Abismo Destructivo Bolso
Pálida, quedará la Luna
por tú decepción.
Pero alumbrara aún
está y mil noches
que vengan
a través de la persiana
de la alcoba.
El árbol, copozo
de mango y hoja verde
que alimentado siempre
a los dos
por la sequía
de tu ausencia
no sé desplomara.
Tus pertenecías junto
a postales con Rosas seca
y poecia ardiendo
de pasión,

Cowardly living amongst the crumblings of rubble ,

YOU MISS ME NOW
songer.co/song/epzclpaimyh9s5cai9h5ub15
[Verse 1]
I cried in the kitchen, you looked through me
I asked for your heart, you gave me your need
I stayed through the silence, through cold and pretend
But love isn’t love when it won’t let you in
[Pre-Chorus]
I held it together, threadbare and torn
You only looked up once the feeling was gone
[Chorus]
You miss me now, but you
