Him

I don't believe in forever.
No, you took that away a long time ago.
I'm going to let you go soon, and it's the worst feeling because I just got a hold of you.

My Love

Your hidden love for me is now open before my eyes. I know you catch the silence between us, and for once, you're okay. You're not afraid to not say anything.

And that's all I've wanted this whole time, for you to not be afraid.

Loss

". . .maybe some things were meant to slow us down."

Fear

You are not keeping any secrets from me. Your secrets are keeping you from me.

i. love. you.

Crazy little words, how do you come together?
Crazy little words, how do I show them that I mean you?
Crazy little words, you got me into trouble.
Crazy little words, you gave me more than I bargained for.
Crazy little words, how do I define you?
Crazy little words, how will I know when I have seen you?
Crazy little words, you're not really that little at all.
Crazy little words, you're beginning to get to me.
Crazy little words, why do you steal moments from me?
Crazy little words, why do you erase my memory?
Crazy little words, you're destroying me.
Crazy little words, you're tearing my world apart.
Crazy little words, why must you go?
Crazy little words, why must you do this to me?

i. love. you.

Each Other

Your smile is so beautiful, but it is not mine.
Your laugh is so joyous, but it is not because of me.
Your eyes are so dark, but they were not made to find mine.
Your skin is so soft, but it was not made to brush mine.
Your hands are so gentle, but they were not made for the curve of my hips.
Your lips are so perfect, but they were not made to match mine.
Your spirit is so hungry, and for once, something of yours matches mine.

Dead Sea

There are three roses on your bed for you--one from me, one from your father, and one from your sister. Mine is rotted and wilted, his is fresh and new, and hers is yet to grow. Each flower represents the point in your life you were at when each of us met you.

So, tell me, what is it like to be rotted and wilted and to only give what's been left over?

Fingernails & Hair

Even though it's dying, it can still be pretty.
Even though I'm dying, I can still be pretty.

Regret

We can't hold back the wind. We can't undo what has been done.

Life

"She never finished it."

Post-Haste

There's no reason to be ashamed.

Heart[less] Monster

Your words hurt worse than a cold slap in the face. I have never wanted to run away from someone so badly. And at the same time, I have never wanted to save someone so desperately.

"I'm not like the others. This is something you can not forget."

Directions

Sometimes I don't know where I'm going, and it scares me. It really scares me.

Precious, Lovely, and Dying

I knew, when I met you, that I'd miss you if you weren't in my life.
I don't know what I'd do if I ever lost you. I imagine it'll be a lot like dying--having to live without you.

You are the only person in this world that I've found to be like me, and you and I both know that's a rare find.

Your Word

The fact that we went all the way doesn't mean a damn thing.
You said there were no strings attached.

I wish you would mean what you say.

Messy

Better than an empty prayer. . .
. . . .is my drunken cry of brokenness.

Turn

Every time we're together, we take a risk.
Every time we're together, we go further than before.
And every time we're together, it always ends the same way. . .with me wanting more.

Because if you were to admit your love for me, it would mean that everything you've lived up until this point is a lie.

Nothing

"I'm waiting on you
to take the last step. I need
you closer to me. . ."

Whole

There are many pieces that have yet to be put together. . .

Some things are better left broken instead.

Wheel

I hate to think that the only thing I ever caused you was pain.
