Library HeartYou checked out my heart like an old used library book.
The one on the bottom shelf with a thick layer of dust across its surface.
It was from a lack of acknowledgment, a lack of caring, and a lack of understanding.
My heart had pages filled with dispair and rage but you took the time to read between the lines.
To see past the sorted, misguided past that inked my pages.
You took the time to know the story, to memorize the words that screamed
And the wounds that still oozed fresh blood, sweat, and tears.

You checked out my heart with a smile, an excitement dancing inside your eyes.
Hands trembling waiting to turn back the cover and see

Just RightYou held my hand just right and we fitted together like hand to glove.
You held me just right and we fitted together like fitted sheet to bed.
You kissed me just right and we fitted together like peanut butter to mouth.
You loved me just right and we fitted together...
No words left to describe that four lettered word.
I love you is 8 letters long but so is bullshit.
I guess togetherness was over rated just like love.

Once Upon A TimeBeing in love with someone who does not
Feel the same is hard to say the least.
What's worse is once upon a time
"I love you" was real and true.
How do three little words get flipped around
To "I hate you?"
Thought we were strong, solid, and sound.
No one could touch us and the love we shared.
Overnight going from loved to hated.
From girlfriend to just friends.
In love with a man who is so heartless.
Nothing should be felt for him
But the past looms up at me
And I love him just as much as once upon a time.
Bliss of heaven turned to agony of hell.
One extreme to another
But it's okay.
I'll just lay here and suffocate on my he

Sand Of My HeartYour words were etched into the sands of my heart
But the water from my eyes, the salty tears
Washed them away and your words mean nothing to me now.

Happiness Is FakeEvery smile you give pains my heart
For I can't stand seeing you happy.

Every tear I shed makes me smile
For I can't stand seeing myself happy.

Used ToUsed to believe in love and fairytales
But I was a foolish girl to ever believe in storybook romance.
Lay awake and dream of a boy who I get lost inside of his eyes.
His warm embraces and candy cane kisses
Made me feel like a princess.
Kisses on the stair well, hugs under rain filled skies.

Used to believe in hearts can be mended
But it only happens in imaginary, make believe shit.
Getting lost in big cities, I'm just a simple girl from a small town.
Hollywood divorces that spread like wild fire,
Nothing good ever lasts for long.

Used to beleive in marriages and babies glued to my hip
But that only happens in movies.
No one would

FeelMy thoughts have been misfiled into subcategories
That my mind can't seem to ever remember.
So many emotions to feel but I feel numb today.
Can't feel my heart breaking nor can I feel the acid tears burning.
Rolling down past my see through smile.
The fakeness of it all sickens me to the core.
I smile today just to hide beind the sadness that
Has etched its way into my bitter heart.
I walk in the rain to hide the tears that fall
Who would notice the difference anyways?
Mascara and eye liner running wild, mixing with the saltiness.
My raccoon eyes I'd like to call them.
Hiding behind a facade, behind the sadness inside my eyes.
T

I Write BecauseI write poetry so I can live to see tomorrow.
Because without it I'd be lost inside myself
With no where to turn.
Immersing myself into my fear of deep water
Slowly suffocating.

Picture Is Worth...A picture is worth a thousand words.
Everytime I look at pictures
Of you and I, I crack a smile & cry.
Instead of one thousand words
I've got thousands of tears.

UnfinishedMy body feels so untouched, needing and wanting.
Craving a brush of your fingertips against chapped crimson lips.
I need you and some how I can't forget you,
The memory of you carved into minds wooden dreams.
My heart screams silently wanting you here inside
It's bloody crannies and dull nooks.

Paper Cut HeartMy heart is that of a pitbull waiting to tear you to pieces if you cross me.
Like a cast iron I stomach the lies that you force feed me.
A sweet humming of the freezer as my heart freezes in time.
Lost with no where to run, to escape to.
All routes closed off to my flimsy paper heart.

My heart is that of a mocking bird for it is a sin to shoot it as it cries its song.
I guess no one ever cared much for they shot me down from my perch.
Downward spiral I hit the cool concrete as I meet my fate.
Nothingness never felt so good as it coarses through frozen veins.
An angelic smile that tells nothing but lies.

My heart is that of a stubbo

Broken GlassI almost allowed myself to love you
But I'm glad I didn't fall
Because instead of pretty roses
I got thorns and broken glass.

Yours, Mine, OursYour words cut me to the bone.
Your kisses burn worse than acid tears.
Your hugs infect me with your diseased heart.
Your love is a fairytale straight from story tale pages.
Your eyes I get lost inside of each time you stare.
Your smile makes me throw up silently in my mouth.
Your mind makes my head spin and my thoughts race.
Your lies hurt more than you'll ever know.

My words fall off your back like water off an umbrella.
My kisses are passion filled but you're blind.
My hugs are sincere but you don't care.
My love is pure, real and true but it doesn't matter.
My eyes fill to the brim with tears that fall effortlessly.
My smile

It's In The WayI feel the love you have for me
In the way that you kiss me,
Its as if fireworks burst across our lips.
It's in the way you pull stray hairs from my face
And tuck them neatly behind my ears.
How you graze your fingertips over my forehead.
Your eyes stare into mine and I see the smile
Etched across the blue hues I call home.
