Ballad of a No one

Black me, colored world 
I crave your affection 
I am tough as rocks 
I still have a soft anterior
I want to cry
Fill a pond with  my shed tears 
My molecules are vibrating
 I am still frozen
My smiles are leaves
The world autumn
They all have a goal
Why is my compass broken

Lonely me, they all have a companion
Dear reader, when you read this 
I hope you find company.
I am an artist,
I cry in letters
The pain I know 
Its sealed vacuum
The worded tears the world sees
Are just stringed letters.

The Lover's Tale

I wanted to leave the world behind,
But she said, "I want our story to be romanticized".
So I buried us alive, side by side.
