~…~
There were unsaid words.
Unkissed kisses.
Unmissed misses.
Untouched moments.
Untouched caresses.
Unfixed messes.
My hand
is still reaching out to an empty palm.
I imagine the clasp.
I imagine your branchy cold fingers,
I used to warm them.
I used to adorn them.
There was you and I.
Still days, hours, now years I want to uncry.
I still haven’t heard the words.
The ones that feel real.
The ones that made me kneel.
The ones that would make me give up everything else just to feel.
They will say.
They will talk.
But the life we had, together,
They can never walk.
So, you win.
I give in.
I’ll give up hoping and fighting for this sin.
I sacrificed my faith.
I sacrificed all of it for you,
for this empty space?
Look how quickly I was to replace.
For words I will never hear you say.
Words unsaid
Unkissed kisses.
Unmissed misses.
Untouched moments.
Untouched caresses.
Unfixed messes… I’ll say them.
Looking up at the moon,
I will forever….

-Tide-
My beard is hydrophobic from these cries.
Trying to hide them away,
collecting all of your goodbyes.
Burying them by these seas I cry.
Only the lonely know how to survive.
Even time is never by my side,
When I am seconds with you
these seconds wont unwind.
That’s why when I see you,
I squeeze you tight.
I hug you by your waist,
Like you are my safest place.
You reach out to me.
You look into my eyes.
Call me crazy,
In this world asylum.
I rather be forgotten,
Than to never be your memory.
Would you ever recognize me?
Through a blind man’s recollection.
After collecting all of your goodbyes.
Trying to hide them away,
Through these seas I cry.
A refrain from this pain,
I hide a world through a deafly rain.
A melody that wont go away,
A semibreve or a crochet.
Thoughts of you I can’t forget or regret.
A treble to my clef,
we were trouble as trouble gets.
Collecting all of your goodbyes.
after all this time,
I burry them away by these seas I cry…

My love.
Love to me doesn’t die,
I don’t know why.
My heart still cries.
Still after you left me dry.
Trying to find the reasons,
Through these seasons.
I keep pressing rewind.
Keep chasing these tides.
Asking for time.
After all these wrongs were right.
This love you gave up without a fight.
Through these seasons.
Searching for reasons.
I rather close my eyes.
To wake up in a world without you,
Is my death,
When I pay this debt,
Will you reverse this promise you kept?
You are my reason,
Through this season.
I tried.
I cried.
I counted my blessings with you
a thousand times.
I love you over and over like this lullaby.
You were everything I thought
you were and might.
Still you gave up
without a fight.
My love.
Our love to me will never die,
I don’t know why.
But my heart still cries.
Let these tears heal me through this night.
Listening to the sound of our lullaby…

Trying to tuck away a smile before it runs away.
Trying to hide a little peace before it ceases, and I lose a piece of me.
Trying to remember I am my balance with or without you even when I seem like I am sinking with no anchor just anger.
Trying to remember my heart still beats even when there is no one to remind me I still know how to love.
Trying to remember my soft brown eyes are used to see through this pain after they watched you walked away from me the last time I felt whole with you…

There is beauty in darkness
beauty in the light that shines
from the heart inside.
It’s a fire that burns bright.
Like I’m a star,
but that part of me is far.
Further than a dream can catch
awaiting 2 hatch.
I need U 2 break this spell
I need 2 free myself from this hell.
Over and over again.
I replay the words U said.
It weighs heavy in my head,
it burns in my chest.
So I heal in the darkness
under the stars.
I recharge like a crystal
hoping to fly back to U like a missle
but missing U still…

@Zara_588 Love…

~The Way~
Each pluck one by one,
From the pain and beauty of this flower.
Leaves trails behind every hour.
Leaves proof there lived a love,
So youthful.
With spirit.
Does he love me,
Does she know not.
Hurts, gutting out all I got.
There is no proof.
No smoke signals,
No solute.
Just mute.
Just waking up everyday,
Like nothing has changed.
No music can ever strike me the same.
Every lyric, every refrain
has no reverb to the way,
Our love harmonized.
No apologies will ever mean more,
Ever again.
This can’t be the end.
This can’t be the dead weight.
I want it back.
I want it the same.
I want to wake up and realize nothing has changed.
Where is my proof?
Is it a scratch, a pinch,
Can it be healed with a cinch?
Will you give in even an inch?
I wonder, when this thunder,
these isolated showers
that consume me with power,
Is the proof?
I need to realize the truth?
You are not coming back…

“What a tragedy, you can laugh at me… I still have love…”
