Falling from your mouth
as rotten
your lies pierce
like a sword

you can't break me
don't lean closer
please don't whisper again,
"Otherwise I might have loved you."

My next fall
will be just as hard
you always wanted to be
the one adored

I dream of my escape
floating face down
and no longer
gasping for breath

waking up to scream,
"Im stronger than that!"
But oh how I wish
I could

I can pretend
I don't want this so badly
and smile in all the right places
at all the right times

I can make my eyes sparkle
and my laughter echo
louder than anyone else's
no one would know, that isn't me

and now I see
harsh reality
the truth before my eyes...
it's not just you who lies

I haven't been here in a loong time. I must say I've missed it. But I was going through a lot of changes and felt it better at the time to stay away. (Technically I don't think I should even post in Teen anymore, as I no longer am one. But this has been home for too long...) Anyways, Thanks for reading.



If I could fall asleep tonight
you know I'd dream of you
and wake up wondering
why my heart is so cold
