Reason

Many times I’ve told you
I love you so much
I love your eyes
I love your hair
I love your personality
I love you

Many times you’ve told me
You don’t believe me
You ignore me
You hold me at arms length
You shun me
You disregard me

I do love you
It’s true
It’s not only because
I’m always with you
It’s because…
…
…
Well, do I really need a reason
Just to love you?

Maybe a God

If only you knew I felt this way
If only you could feel the same
If only I could wrap my arms around you
Hug you
Kiss you
Feel your warmth
Your love
Your light
If only your radiance wasn’t so overwhelming
Maybe I wouldn’t be ensnared
Maybe I wouldn’t be hypnotized
The silver of your eyes
Glowing with a metallic flare
The silky white of your hair
Flowing like a rich cloth scarf
If only you weren’t so cold
Maybe I could have a place there
In your heart
If only I could thaw you out
Break down your walls
Destroy your barriers
Maybe you could trust me
Love me
Have me
Need me
Want me
Maybe we could be happy together
Wait…
Who am I kidding
What am I thinking
Am I wrong in believing
Maybe a God could love me

You and I

When we were younger
I loved you like a brother
So close
You and I

We played together
Forever having fun
So close
You and I

When we started growing up
I loved you like a friend
Still close
You and I

We’d hang out
A little less often
Still close
You and I

When we were teenagers
I loved you like a boyfriend
Unrequited
You and I

We started drifting
Apart from each other
Unrequited
You and I

When we became adults
I loved you like a drug
Addicted
You and I

You stayed away
For you were afraid
Addicted
You and I

When I went away
I still loved you
Unforgiving
You and I

It was my fault
I loved you too much
Unforgiving
You and  I

When I’m alone at night
I crave you, still loving you
Hurting
You and I

I broke you
I destroyed you
No more
You and I

Abuse

How dark is night
I can’t see the dawn
I sit and I bleed
But always live on

It hurts at first
It always does
But my body goes numb
All the pain is gone

My body aches
My wounds bleed
I can’t think
I can’t see

They beat me
And they swear
I thought they loved me
But they don’t care

Many see the cuts
Abrasions and bruises
I silently cry out
Though none offer help

I slink away
Into a corner
I hide my eyes
And cover my ears

I don’t want to see
What pain you’ll bring
I cannot cry
The tears that sting

Light and Dark

While in the light
The darkness cries
The wounded sparrow sings
The wolfhound yelps
In hell he’s bound
To hear a lifeless shriek
Joys all fade
And lightness dies
The world does cease to sing
Cold white snow
That falls so pure
Turns sickly red
Right in my hands
The world is dying
I hear the crying
It’s all so deafening
With shrieks and screams
The darkness gleams
I try and cover my ears
But the noises
Just never seem to peak
There’s nothing to do
Nothing to say
Life is slowly going to fade away
Encased in darkness
Light does scream
A painful, blood-curdling sound
My ear drums throb
It’s done its job
Humanity is cursed to hell
