I wish I could be strong enough
To ride this storm for you
But my life has been a storm of disastrous proportions
And I just can't pull it through
I wish you could be brave enough
To pull me upon the ship
But your strength has waned from fighting the waves
And you just can't pull me too
I wish I could be fiery enough
To wait until the new day
We all know that, eventually, storms end
But this storm is nothing new
I wish you could be bold enough
To push the storm away
But even though you never meant it to last
You're hiding in the storm, aren't you.
A moment here with you
Could be everything I need
And if you close your eyes
Then maybe I could make you see
That a moment here with me
Could be fleeting like you fear
Or a moment here together
Could be a moment that lasts forever
A moment here with you
Is all I'm asking for
I want you by my side
And I want to share my all
But then came all the hurt
And our moment fell apart
And now my trust is weary,
Worn and dusted like my heart.
A moment building up,
Recovering our tune
A melody so sweet
But my soul forewarns the doom
Because a moment by your side
Is all I ever asked you for
And now you cannot take me there -
The hurt grows even more.
So what,
Let him leave me
After all, I'm used to being left.
I could leave first
I know it
But I'd be leaving me bereft.
So what
Let me leave first,
Let me say that I was through
But in that,
I just know it -
That I can't be through so soon.
And if I give up,
Then I give up.
But I don't know how to let it end,
And if it ends
And it's over
How can I still call him my friend?
And if I end it
Then it's over
And I know he won't come back
But would I want that?
I want a fighter
Someone who loves me back.
There's two ribbons, dancing on the wind
One's silken and spotted, everything fun
The other's lace, and flying, as if on the run.
Two thin ribbons, twisting in the air
A beautiful dance to which none compare
Twin thin ribbons collide.
Two long ribbons, entangled in each other
They knot up together, to be never undone
And they fly with the golden sun.
Tangled, entwined, these ribbons like vines
Are subject to whims of the wind
But the wind doesn't care for the destined.
Two thin ribbons, suddenly separate
Grasping for the ends within reach -
But they just can't reach.
Two different ribbons, dancing on the wind
They fly as if they're on th
I thought you were waiting
For a question or a sign
But what I didn't know is
You weren't waiting to be mine.
You told me it was fine
And I could trust you told the truth
You said it was inevitable
But I found your truth uncouth.
But because you told me
It's a matter of just time
Even though it wasn't moving
I stood, waiting, in your line.
But now I see what's happening
And I know I'll wait too long
And I already have, but I just don't know
How to find you wrong.
So every day I'm waking and
I tell you I am fine...
But then I saw those messages
And I crumbled - I crumbled - in that line.
It was a mistake,
I scream.
I try not to breathe
I cry
I lean -
And yet I am not leaning.
It was a mistake,
I gasp,
And I try not to ask
Forgive me
I rasp
I know it's such a stupid task.
It was a mistake
I beg,
And yet I have nothing left
So I know
In the end
You'll leave me
Again.
I've been frozen since the day you left me,
Still crying on that airplane seat
Staring out that window at your silhouette
Until you turned your back on me
Each day that's passed feels like yesterday
Back to the yesterday I last saw you
The movie we watched - forever unfinished
Just like our own love story.
You kissed my lips, we whispered our love
And I held on for dear life
But I knew I'd never see you again
It was written all over your eyes.
I try, and I try, and I try
I'm so sorry.
All I ever meant to do
Was keep on, keep on
Loving you
All I wanted to protect
Was your heart. I didn't
Want it wrecked.
I'm sorry that it got away
And that I somehow hurt you
Anyway.
And I'm sorry that I tried so hard
And that I watched you shatter
Into shards.
I lied to myself, to keep me safe,
And I turned down risks, said
Just have faith.
Said things will work out in the end
But we all know those words were
Just pretend.
And now I just don't know how
I'm meant to turn things
Back around.
I've been so scared, for so, so long
I don't know how to trust
I'm wrong
When I say that you don't wan
To my dearest friend,
I've missed you
It's been so long
Since I kissed you
And to say so wrong
Just to touch you
And I cannot bear
Not to feel you
My dearest friend,
How I need you
All my darkest secrets
To conceal you
Please don't hold me
Won't reveal you
Since they told me time
Would've healed you
Hey my dearest friend,
Now I see you
And I really shouldn't
Want to be you
But you whisper close
Hey I can heal you
But I should've known
It wasn't real.
I wish I could be strong enough
To ride this storm for you
But my life has been a storm of disastrous proportions
And I just can't pull it through

My words are greasy
They slide away
My heart wants to but lacks the will to play
Evenings on fast forward
Until work the next day
My dreams and goals
Don’t lift but weigh
I am consumed
But I have nothing to say
Will I ever be okay?
All the days of yesterday come tumbling down.
Hopefully soon I can find the right words to say.
The END of my yesterdays have left me with a frown.
Tomorrow brings change.
Nothing will stay the same.
Was I comfortable in my chains?
Was I the only one to blame?
Past days brought me here.
Now that those days are gone, why do I shed these tears?
Maybe I should let go of my new fears.
If I stand here and wait,
Will you meet me at these gates?
I stood on the edge of the Earth
After all that we'd been through
We'd gone so far and done so much
I left my heart with you
And I wondered if it was worth it
Should I just close my eyes and fall
When I was standing in the wreckage
It seemed so easy after all
You left me in this love alone
You left me in this on my own
Floating out in space and time
Lost out in the freezing cold
I watched the world pass me by
And I wondered if I should follow
We'd been so much and come so far
Now broken, black and hollow
And if I could only turn back time
Would it change a thing at all
But when I'm standing on the edge
It doesn't seem that hard to fall
I'm
Move south of the border and turn up the heat
Go down with the volume and rise with the beat
Tonight is forever - there's nothing but time
And just for a moment you'll always be mine
You’re ugly when skin is textured with ripples of rib and spine
You’re ugly when stomach screams and heart flutters
You’re ugly in the bathroom after meals
You’re ugly hurting your loved ones
You’re ugly staring at food
You’re ugly with secrets
You’re ugly fainting
You’re ugly fading
You’re ugly
For hurting someone beautiful.
Cling to life.
Please cling to life,
Even if your green gown
Makes you feel like a ghost
Drifting through tiled halls
With other ghouls,
With people who have
Accepted death
And worship it.
Cling to life.
Please.
Shatter mirrors
If they manipulate you
If they say your bones are badges
To be worn with pride.
Your bones are beautiful
When they work inside.
Cling to life.
I beg you, cling to life.
Please kick and scream and fight
Even if it doesn’t feel right.
Your heart deserves to thrive
Your song must still take flight
You deserve to be alive.
Please, please,
Cling to life.
There's more to Love by IIINegativeIII, literature
Literature
There's more to Love
I can feel the end
There's no more that I can take
Nothing left of me to break;
Nothing more that you can say
To make me feel like a mistake
No reason to lay awake
Hoping none of this was fake
No more wondering
if there's more to love
Than just drowning in the ache
This is all that we have Left
Another topic to discuss
Another million different ways
For you to say
you don't believe in Us
So just walk away
I promise not to make a fuss
We've reached the point
Where love turns to disgust
From all of the distrust
But there's more to love
Than just to hurt
Much more to love
than just to flirt
Or let someone go up
your skirt
Let someone in
no
How could you leave me like this
Thinking that I'm better off dead
You were the one that came to me
And planted all these Ideas in my head
You were a breath of fresh air,
hope, a new dream
Now I use every breath in these lungs
to curse your name and just scream
You've got me pulling my hair
drinking and tearing my skin
You've left me crying,just dying
And hating the day you walked in
But I hope everything was worth it
and you got everything you wanted
Because picturing you with him
has left me feeling haunted
Imagining his thumb
caressing both your lips
as he looks into your eyes
and you can't look away from his
I feel like I don
Tick, tock
For all that I've lost
I never knew that I'd be part of the cost.
To all that I've lost.
Tick, tock
The things I forgot
Are many, and widespread; there is quite a lot.
Oh, how I forgot.
Tick, tock
The time on the clock
Is never-ending, until it is not.
It suddenly stopped.
Tick, tock.
Well, I guess I'm still here. It's been awhile, but I just felt like it was important for me to call out again, lay claim on my small territory of words that once kept me afloat - are still keeping me afloat.
I'm still here, and so are they.
I haven't posted anything in awhile. I wrote some songs/a song in the holidays.
But don't get your hopes up because I just ugh feel kinda crap but just great as well and I'm just confused and it's great and shit and everything all at once and asffsdgs. People!
:(
