Premium Member The gap between love and true love
When love is good, it's really great. Unfortunately for many when the sparkle fades, they don't know how to fix it. Seems easier for many to clear the slate and go for instant gratification of finding someone new. They're addicted to easy pickings and the high of novelty. The other side of that coin is they are cursed to never experience the depth of true and lasting love....

Premium Member Never Be Over You
I knew after the longest moment we made love, That you could be better than someone sent from above, But soon enough you told me we weren't meant to be, I know you had only meant to see me free: But I sadly and sentimentally told you, I would always love you no matter what you'll do. I descended into a...

BLUE SHIRT GOODBYE
[Verse 1] I was half a man in a boy’s disguise, Tried to speak truth, but it came out lies. Didn’t know how to break what I couldn’t define— So I blew us up like I’d lost my mind. You were books I hadn’t read yet, Said lines I loved but never met. You danced in the rain, without regret, I stood in...

Premium Member Response to love letter
Dear Eos, I wish I still felt passion in my heart toward the generous soul that you are. You always saw beauty in the world and painted strokes of life with a brush of sweetness and delight. I am sorry for the suffering life's put you through. The heart is a fickle thing. It simply was not meant to be. We've walked...

Premium Member I Walk On
A ghost still lingering in my head, a shadow of what once was Echoes of your voice, did I hear amongst them a mournful sob I walk on, I walk on, I walk on There is no point in looking back; I can’t change what can’t be My heart is broken, but at least this broken heart remains free I...

Complicit
Don't know how I missed it, How I got so complicit, How I overlooked those parts of you. And now I'm in danger, The man I love turned into a stranger, And I'm starting see we've got more problems than a few. Holy F%ck do I feel stupid. How did I even do this? How did I let this...

Not Good Enough for You
I saw the light in you, warm and wide, But felt too small to walk beside. You gave me love, pure and strong— But deep inside, I feared I’d do you wrong. You dreamed of futures, of holding tight, But I saw shadows in my sight. Not because I didn’t care— But because I knew I wouldn’t be fair. You deserve someone steady,...

Break my heart
Maybe you did break my heart, but it was yours to break from the very start, I loved you, and I still do, from the moment I met you, from now to the start, I knew I’d love you with every broken piece of my heart. ...
