Note To Self:I Miss You Terribly

I can't stop thinking of you 
until the day is through
when the lights go down
and not a sound
can be heard
Not one word
Will I mutter
of my love for you
although it may last forever
when the day is done
and night has come
not one word will I say
about my love for you.
My lips shall
Stay closed
I’ll hold myself close
Pretending,
Wishing it was you
But you’re gone
And in the night
I think of you
And in the day
I think of you
My light,
My sunshine,
My angel,
In the darkness,
I think of you
Your memory
Keeps me going
Keeps my heart beating
Let’s me know
That it’s all alright.
Not another word 
will I whisper
Not another
Want shall I moan
No matter how much I want you,
My angel,
My angel,
I’ll stay quiet
And watch you 
As you live on
Without me
My memory
Haunting you
Like shadows on the walls
As you live on
Needing me
As much as I need you
An unforgettable love
We share.
So
When the lights go down
And all is dead
I’ll try my best
To stop thinking of you
My girl.

You Can'T Always Hide

Make a night
In deep blackness, falling calling,
I sight,
I see you holding on to all you have left,
Alright?Not alright.
Never again, no never again,
You throw yourself onto the ground and cling
to dewy grass
Like Heaven's Hell sent child
You cry again
And tears fall down your eyes
It's red, ruby, crimson,
the blood of a thousand men
and a thousand more
Staining the skin on your hands
Like the color of the throats you tore
A killer,
distiller,
As you come to terms again
He is dead, over, gone
'There's nothing I can do
So I run'
You run from
the child you once knew
you run from your mother and your friends,
you run from him too.
I thought that you loved him so much...
'Like a thousand stars' he lit up your life,
You loved the way he drove you crazy with one simple touch,
Or with his breath on your skin,
You loved him like no one else did
So now that he asks "Where have you been?"
As you stare down at his cold, lifeless grave,
Your fingers trace over the rough grey stone,
Your tears flow free as a wave
you've cried this chamber dry
you trace the letters of his name
Carefully, as if it would break if you try,
Nothing can erase this pain
You left your only one here to lay die
And now your tears fall down like rain
Pouring, falling, like the rain that night,
Black darkness, you find in reverie
You ran up to his window and these same tears blocked your sight,
He lay, your love, he lay dead
On his bedroom floor
A gun in his hand, a bullet in his head,
Was your love not enough to keep him alive?
Now as you sit here on his very grave,
you too lay down and die inside,
'I miss you...I miss you so terribly
I can't believe I let you go,I was there,
But I was gone and blind to see
how much my running hurt you
Everytime I turned my back on my emotion,
Devotion, love, I wish I'd known,
How you felt, what I feared.'
Crawling slowly you press your lips
to this stone
All you have left of him
His new home,
'All I see now, love, is a mirror image of me, for inside,
I'm dying, slowlying, faithfully
without you by my side
I lay down on your gravesight
and I die tonight
Knowing we will meet again
when it finally ends
Goodbye, now, then.'

Soar Away

I wake up in the morning
to the chirping of birds
to the rustle of leaves outside
to the sun rising over the hills

The sky outside reflects
the things behind
these walls
stormy, 
cloudy, 
grey.

No one sees me,
My invisible me,
As I leave the house,
walk down the street
and sit on the curb.

I breathe in the crisp air
and all of my despair
breathes into me
I hold my arms tight around my knees
for fear of letting go
of me.

A bird flies smoothly
but alone
and soaring.
Here I am
alone and sitting
Can I not fly, too?

'Save me', I plead, watching the bird,
For I have no one else
'Make it better', I cry,and 
fall back for my head to hit
the grass.
The dew soaks through my hair
and I feel the dampness on my head
and in my eyes.
Tears.
So alone. 
And so I cry,
hoping,pleading, for something better,
or to die.
Loneliness is misery, i find,and today my misery will die
along with me.

Dedicated To You

Silver grey skies
Lay overhead
Not meaning rain
But no sun either.
Green grasses stay
Below our feet,
Laying an easy path 
Before us.

It is a day like all
Other days,
With birds chirping 
And our laughter
In our ears.

A simple smile,
A slight happiness,
I know its all okay,
Under these silver grey skies
On an ordinary day
Its all okay.

Nothing to fear
Not a thought to think about
That’s the way I like my days
Simple, 
Sweet,
Just you and me
Laughing,
Playing,
Screaming for no reason,
This is the way life should be.

Let there be no thought for morrows,
Or of hopes, death, 
Or my sorrows
Let it be
Let it be
Like this
With Silver grey skies
Swirling calmly ahead.

The rain begins to fall 
Slowly
Tiny droplets fall on my face
Cascading down my neck and shoulders
Cool, refreshing
‘Heaven on Earth.’ you whisper
and I silently agree
as we run
towards
something unknown
as we run
towards the heaven
that only we know
The rain, the sky,
You and I, 
Its simple really, this happiness 
That we have made,
Nothing to it.
Nothing to it.
We are as we are
Flying high
Running fast
Below this sky
And that’s it. 
It’s simple
It’s nothing
It’s everything I want.

Lay Still

Lay still,
My darling, 
My angel,
Stay still
And be at peace.
Stay calm,
My beauty,
My love,
And for once,
Let us lay in peace.
All is quiet
And all is calm
Under the stars
tonight.
I’ll hold you close again
one day,
so keep still.
Wake me up tomorrow,
When your loving brace remains
 for only a short while.
Keep me here, with you, forever,
I wish,
Hold me close,
And lay still, 
We’ll be together, again
But for now,
Be still, my- angel,
Be still
A sweet, simple silence
Welcomes us.

Tidal Waves

Sort of Empty Inside
Sort of Dying Slowly
I can never, ever hide
From you and everything you do
How do I run from the tidal waves
That crash into me and you?
Our love, dark in caves
Homeless nights and pointless plights
How do we escape this burden?
How do we stop all these fights?
I hide from you endlessly
You promise you'd sing me anything
Soft and Sweet or loud and out of key
But I don't want everything
I've got a hitch in my throat 
As I stare in your deep eyes 
I've run out of hope
Tidal waves and cloudy skies
Are all that I can see
They blind me of you and our tainted love
This is the end of you and me
You're perfect, an angel from above
But So Long and Goodnight
I can't take love anymore
I can't take this pretending light
What are you mad for?
Can you hear me?
Are you near me?
Can we pretend to meet again?
When things are better...in the end?

Haunting

The glass is shattered
And the mirror is broken,
It’s reflection forever lost 
Never to be found.

I still hear your whispers,
Grazing my cheek with a ghostlike echo,
Reaching out into me, 
Pulling me back into you.

It isn’t fair.

You keep me up at night, 
The nightmares of no dreams stealing my peace.
I’m fighting with the dark
And the memory of its touch.

My flesh is not my own,
While your touch is haunting me,
Your sweet whispers taunting me,
I need a sweet release.

I’m scorned and I’m pained, 
And I’m fighting my end,
With shatters of hope scratching at my skin.
There is nothing left.

Please, let me be.

But wait…
Sweet, simple silence from the dark,
No whispers,
Sweet simple silence…
Can you hear it?

A single tear drop,
That I have let fall,
Could it be?
I am mortal after all?

Goodbye

And so
I write my notes of suicide
Carving them on my wrists
Watching the blood flood
And roll down my hands
Colliding with the tears from my eyes
My own pain is enough
To say farewell to the ones that
I once loved
Somehow You're the ones that pushed me
But
Only I'm to Blame
For the slits on my wrists
And I feel no guilt
As I fade away
And so I write my notes of suicide
Carving them on my wrists
Watching my own blood flood
And roll down my hands
Colliding with the tears from my eyes
This is the note of my suicide
...Goodbye.
