Limbo

As the time went on

The line gets hazy

Both afraid to cross, to jump, to risk

Staring at one another

The truth both of us dare not to utter

Forever waiting, wanting, wondering

[rouge-writes]

Vacation Home

I was just your Vacation Home

A place you keep

But never to stay in for too long

A place you go to when you need to breathe

But leave as soon as you’re okay again

Left behind, to return to your main home

A place of solace and warmth

But only temporarily

A place left for eons, becomes dusty

But always there to welcome you home

[rouge-writes]

You’re still the one

I’ll choose to love

In the next lifetime

Aisle

Staring at the aisle of the church

Here I am, thinking of the words you said to me

Said you wanted to have a normal family

A happy marriage

White picket fence

A family

Things I could never give you

Staring at the aisle

Wondering why the Gods made me feel this way towards you

All this pain and suffering

Is it even worth it?

You told me that

Love doesn’t have to be pain, jealousy, and fighting

But why do the Gods let me love

Someone like you?

Staring at the aisle

Wondering if you ever felt something for me

Even just a little bit

Staring at the aisle of the church

I wonder if you have an inkling of your effect on me

Lost at Sea 🌊

You are a siren

Who led me into the sea

Charmed by your words and promises

Followed you in

Even if I never knew how to swim

Drowning in you

I am the fool

Who jumped

Forever doomed

Refusing to be saved

Lost in the spell and charm

That you put me in
