Ill be trying to update this as often as I can, but here is a start. I wrote this today, because I needed to reflect on what has happened. I hope you like it.

In Progress
-----------------------------------------
I was okay, I was warm
But it was all a lie, I reached out
They let go
Now I’ve lost, I’m falling

The summer is long over
The birds have left, the winds have died.
As warmth slips away I realize
I am losing it all.

I slip farther into myself
I lose reality to my fantasy
I’m all alone, no one to save me
I’m cold, with nothing to warm this ice I call my soul.

The ground closes in, winter approaches
I’m ready for the cold, I want to freeze
I look towards the end
But saw not mine, only hers.

I reached out for you, one last try
Expecting nothing, just another lost hope
But she clutched my hand, and pulled us up
Too soon after, we parted ways, hope in our eyes
the taste still fresh on our lips

We stayed together, though far away, and lit a fire
The ice melted, warmth returned
Long lost songs were heard again
Summer returns, all the more splendid
after that hellish winter not so long ago

Cleansing
-------------------------------------------------------------
The earth is barren
Dust dominates this scarred wasteland.
As the wind blasts the burning air,
A beaten flower tries to grow.

A valiant struggle but to no avail,
Nothing survives in this bombed earth.
The seasons pass
Once again that beaten flower tries to grow.

The sun beats down
The nights freeze over
As that flower withers and starts to fall.
A cloud appears, and casts a drop.

The rain comes down
Strength returns to that wilted flower.
It grows and spreads, filling the wasteland.
The rain dies down
Its work now finished.
From what was once nothing grew
My beautiful garden.

I wrote this for my girlfriend. I hope it makes you feel better love <3

Far from Lament
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When I cry, I think about you and everything gets better.
When I sleep, I’m thinking about you.
When I love, I’m thinking about you.
When I smile, I’m thinking about you.
When I freak out, I think about you and everything gets better.

You are my savior, even if you don’t agree
You feel bad over things that don’t bother me.
You worry over things you shouldn’t
You apologize when you complain, but who else will listen?
Your afraid of hurting me, but baby I’m still here.
Your afraid of fucking this up, but baby we can work through anything.

When I think about you, my heart skips a beat.
When I think about you, my whole day brightens.
When I think about you, strength returns when nothings left.
When I think about you, everything clicks.
When I think about you, I wonder how you think about me.

Inward Refractions
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
If home is where the heart lies
Then where lies my heart?
Blackened torn pieces, covered with flies
Are all that remains of that part.

As each beat rips another hole
I crash and burn, inside I die.
The world is fading around me, just a broken whole
I don’t care anymore, but begin to cry.

You say I’m scaring you?
Then I wish you could read my mind.
I’m a living lie, and I can’t remember who
Knives, drugs can’t bring back my kind.

A youth who opened his eye
Only wishes to close them for good.
Slashes, burns, and scars all lie
Broken but still breathing I return misunderstood

My heart found its home
But will the walls hold?
She would leave, if it would end this syndrome
But without her, I lose my last threshold.

She’s my hero, my savior
The torn pieces swell and heal.
She stopped my self torture
I‘m complete because my heart she did steal.

NEW STUFF *GASP*
I know it's been forever and a day since I updated, but some shit went down. I've been super busy lately, and just today got some free time on my hands. So here we go

Broken Newborn
-------------------------------
A newborn cradled in her arm
Silent, and still as the star
"No closer!" She screams, "They'll only do more harm!"
As the child stares only focused on afar
None can escape that awful gaze
The mother screaming and crying
But still defending in her protecting craze
The doctors still are prying.
They tear the baby away from her
As her world crashes all around
She stares blankly at the father
The baby still hasn't made a sound.
"Why did they take him?" a desperate whisper
The dad bends down, tears flowing
"My baby's gone" and the silence grows thicker
The mother falls back now knowing
Her baby died, that bundle of joy
Now stolen away, without a chance
No life, no future, not even a day
But the mother can't help but dance.
---------------------------------------------------------

Bedside Angel
-------------------------------------
"Now it's time," the doctors say.
Your life will be taken away
The pain isn't worth going through anyway.
All decided for me, by my bedside angel.
No questions on how I feel
A newborn trapped within the womb
I'll kick and struggle, but just make my tomb.
My bedside angel, without a tear,
Looks down on me, I start to fear.
My life is mine, is it not?
Why can they decide my time to rot?
Sitting on this infernal bed
The gauze around me blood soaked red.
She looks away as the doctors come.
The damage has already been done.
I'll keep fighting for my bedside angel.
They push in the syringe at an awful angle.
"Good night sweet prince, I'll see you in the morning."
As she chokes on tears, my Bedside Angel.
