What Could Have Been

Love leads us into strange places,
Indeed I have loved some strange faces,
But no love has been stranger than my love for you,
For you caused me not just to love
But to hate you too.
How love can turn so seamlessly into another
Bitterly strong emotion, it's like no other -
A virus of the soul that spreads and tries
To morph into fear of more of your lies;
Into anger at your selfishness;
Into confusion at your motives,
And all this time, it's like you did not notice
That what once was a pleasant yet fateful scene
Turned into the death of what could have been.

You made me lie You made me cry You made me die A bit inside. You seemed so cool You made me drool I was such a fool I fell for you.

Wrenching in pain. Hands twisting my heart. Leaving your burnt handprint. Healed but leaving a scar. I cast you as the star in this. So you know your lips I'll never forgive.

Hey you, Yes, you, right over there. You seem sad an blue. But they don't care. What's the matter man. Your face says: "Do what you can, But you won't fix this mess." Mess, is that what you say.

~*~ Do you not know That you're tearing me apart. That you're ripping to shreds Both my mind and my heart. I feel like crying almost every day From the things that you do. And the words that you say.

She Lived For You.

She used to be a pearl, Ignorant and serene, Heart healthy, Heart clean. She used to be so sweet, Rose lips pursed, Not cursed. Beautiful. She used to laugh all day. Now she's a shell.

I love this. It's just so honest.

What a beautifully flowing piece of writing. It's got a wisdom and sadness and passion I'm kinda stunned by
