I remember noticing the parts of myself I'd never know had been missing, finding how much easier it was for you to grow with me as I grew with you

I remember the freedom, the laughter, the way the world made sense. Everything had a purpose, a meaning, and mine was simply to love you

I remember the worries disappearing, they became so small, so insignificant I didn't even notice them compared to the beauty I saw in you

I remember discovering how strong a connection could be, how much of my heart had been ready all along to be shared, with or without you

I will always remember you

[elizabethh222]

Sink your teeth deep into my flesh

Leave behind a scar as deep and the want you have for me

Grab my waist like a wolf about to rip apart his prey

Run your sharp fingers through my sweet smelling hair

Before you tear open my being

[elizabethh222]

Im glad the world didn't end that day

I would've layed on your lap while you gently ran your fingers through my hair,

Told you whatever was on my mind without a care,

Staring into your eyes with total content,

Laughed at the preciousness of that moment.

If the world had ended that day ours never would have

Our love would still be there unshattered, intact forever

[elizabethh222]

Part of me will never leave your shadow. It aches as she adds to the shade on the sunlit path you walk down, hand in hand. She gently kisses you, blocking ur heart from the burden of my darkness.

[elizabethh222]

The more unknown the meaning becomes, the more possibilities it has to turn into

[elizabethh222]

I know now I would've changed every part of me just to be the girl you longed to hold in your arms,

Just to be the girl who wouldn't leave your thoughts,

The girl you had been yearning for.

For this, I now know I could never truly love you

[elizabethh222]

I forgot about the haze

That clouds rationality

I forgot about the thorns

That cause fatal brutality

The path was never clear

Guided only by the stars

The path was always rotten

No colliding constellations ours

Yet I came crawling back

Burdened with hope

Yet I left behind safety

With a dead dream to elope

I just wish I could stop

Trying to relight the dead

I just wish I truly saw

How this was all in my head

[elizabethh222]

You were there when she left

Glowing and free

We ran through the night

Across our dimly lit street

You would listen when I spoke

Eyes like weather

Gave me new paths to travel

With thoughts going forever

But all I could remember

My mind twisted

Was you turning away

My trust in you misted

When your ways were most needed

Shattered was hope

The true barrier rose

your fickle horoscope

[elizabethh222]

The only thing I remember how to do is forget

Once I was a trained arsonist, yet I now can't remember how to light a match

Not that I even have a match to try

So here I sit in the hollow room bathed in dust

Forgetting to remember the only way out

[elizabethh222]

Still the truth wasn't relised

Until I saw the moon from all sides

Blindly gazing upon the rife

Words sharper than a chisled knife

Shattered was the place we built

But deeply hidden was guilt

Yet slowly she reappeared

Only to drip feed me pure fear

[elizabethh222]

I told you who I am

I just wish it was true

Emptying my heart

But twisting the words

Until I have forgotten

You made me who I am

I just wish you really knew

These aren't shadows

But merely pure darkness

So old it's rotten

I love who you are

I just wish you did too

So you could set fire

To my waiting embers

And not only listen

[elizabethh222]

Weapons are so dangerous when you don't know you are armed.

You convince yourself you are harmless, holding no more than a single silver ring,

No edges, no bullet, just a smooth, sculpted strip of metal.

You are so exposed when you wear your feelings like a locket.

They may appear hidden, but in reality nothing would prevent a single hand reaching over,

Opening the clasp, reveling, then shattering.

So when all is known, your own weapons will pierce your exposed skin.

There were so many chances to escape.

As you threw away all you had learned, it was clear the fault was yours.
