Skeletons and lost love,
it's all just a part of the day.
The tears won't dry up,
they never choose to fade.
I freeze in front of the mirror.
My face looks older day by day.
My reflection . . . more

Your words run up my back like ice,
tearing, ripping, slicing my flesh.
My soul slides out the gaping wounds,
shattering into a billion pieces on the floor.
The blood oozes as I kneel down,
covering the . . . more

My dreams were eaten
by the worm at the bottom
of your empty tequila bottle
while my body melted
from the inside out with
the bitter tears I
swallowed down.
The hollowness . . . more

Every corner I turn,
every dirt path I trod along,
leads me straight back
to the manhole I've climbed out of
too many times before.
I find myself endlessly searching
for a night without . . . more

I want to lie in a bed of roses,
and feel the silkiness against my skin.
The fragrance—
how it comforts me,
though feeling so alone
once again.
There was a time
when skies weren't cloudy
and . . . more

The scars from the cigarette burns you
left on me are slowly starting to shrink.
You knew that seeing them would remind
me of the pills you slipped in my drink.
The roofies poisoned my body, but

Tell me how you learned to lie.
To me, your deceptions were so real.
Tell me everything, and maybe in time
I'll cause you the pain you made me feel.
As cocky as it sounds, I gave you my all.

Through the darkness I can see
your face glowing pale,
reflected in the tiniest sliver of light
that breaks the shadows.
Your rattling breath wreaks havoc
on my tortured soul.
Agonizing over your agony, . . . more

To this day, the sight of such
a disgusting activity-
which is far more common than
I ever could have expected-
causes a scream to well up
inside me, originating deep

You tried so hard to stay strong,
but the disease just ate you away.
It recycled through your blood
and left you so drained.
Sometimes I feel so helpless,
like I'll never escape the emptiness . . . more

I've never felt the sudden need to cry so much.
I stay here with you for unknown reasons,
knowing damn well that I should have walked out
the first time I ever wanted to cry.
I can see it in your . . . more

I remember those nights so clearly—
how could they be forgotten?
Slowly into your room I crept,
looking for the cigarette,
a constant late night menace,
the flame so full of malice.
Always was . . . more

All I desire is a simple release,
a haven of heroes, a palace of peace.
Yet everyday I’m left drained and weak;
no tears left to cry, no words left to speak.
Is there no sanctuary? No salvation . . . more

The roses that you gave me
sit wilted on my shelf.
And every time I see them,
it makes me hate myself.
But then, why do I keep them?
They’re distant thoughts of you.
Though there were mostly bad . . . more

Lately, I’ve gotten into
the annoying habit
of writing your name
across my cigarettes
in black marker.
I always go cross-eyed
when the cherry starts licking at the
B
like a familiar lover. . . . more

I love how the thunder cracks
and rips apart my eardrums
as I stand out in the rain,
trying to be hit by a lightning bolt
to see if it warms my heart.
My heart is numb from freezing
and the rain that . . . more

It came in autumn, like the colors
that littered the grounds and the soft
breeze that gripped the willow limbs--
this quiet...an unsettling kind of
peace similar to the ones found in
horror movies . . . more

It's funny how I thought
I could fix it all.
When we came to a fork
in the road, you picked it up
and looked for cheesecake,
preferably strawberry--
I wasn't wearing fruit that . . . more

You stick your finger in my heart,
but you can't stop the bleeding;
pinching off the ventricles,
still it's slowly beating.
Mouth just like an enemy,
screaming all this honesty-

With the sadness of
the world in my eyes-
of hopelessness and despair-
I begin a new journal
of sacrifice and hate;
as my thoughts carry me forward,
I feel my pain
for it is wickedly strong . . . more
