love will
probably leave
you in pieces

but darling,
broken blades
still cut.

-

Darling,
enough with
those tears now.

let's hurl them
at the sky
into space

and have shooting stars
in reverse for a change.

-

you are
the only
death,

I want
to live.

-

I look for
you in the
seconds that
stop between
I breathe.

-

all this ink
in me and
yet you hide
in the words
I can never write.

-

I don't mind
what tomorrow
brings be it
hope or despair
as long it brings you.

-

I watch on as she runs
through the dark
fireflies chasing her

and I can't help but wonder
if these are stars or
the sun itself in peices
hovering around

just to be with her

-

loving you was the
only war I lost,
now I sit here
by the shore
waiting for a storm,

too scared for
another bullet,
too wounded to
go back home,

I have nothing left
but blood and ink,
unfortunately both
of them lead to you.

-

time has never
healed grief
but it sure does
teach you how

to live with pain
and not suffer.

-

to let go of pain,
you must let
it stay and do
what it is meant to ,

for you can
never drive away
something that
didn't belong to you.
