Hurts Like HeavenOh. My.
God, it hurts like heaven;
Longing for all your affection,
Every bit of your attention,
You're a divine intervention.
In this life that's turned to hell.

I can't help it when I reminisce,
In moments that are just like this,
I remember when we had our kiss,
And now how much I really miss,
You...

The times when we weren't separated,
Were the best memories that I've created,
To reunite is long awaited,
I feel like I'm incarcerated,
In my own personal hell.

I can't help it when I think of you...
I hope one day we'll say "I do."
But for now I have to struggle through,
Until the day I get to you...

It won't be long, lov

Part Mirage, Part NightmareI try to fight, the feelings I, hide inside
And the piosonus thoughts they bring
But darling, they're all that's left
They're all of you, that I've kept
You're still all I want, you're all I need
You're everything, that I believe

But when you're gone
My heart threatens to collapse
Because it's broken in two
And it's missing its other half

Please don't leave, please stay with me...
I can't breathe...
I'm on the edge of insanity...

Part mirage, part nightmare...
Please come back!
I just need to know you're there...

For me...

I know that I've, said I'm fine
That everything, is alright
But darling, I miss the feeling
Of your

On LoveLove not forever
Love for an eternity
Because it's longer

HauntedI hear this haunted voice; it whispers lies
It keeps me up at night; it plays my fears
Allowing no sleep for these tired eyes
Telling me things that I don't want to hear

Am I really heartless or am I numb?
Is this simply darkness of am I blind?
Try to claw my way back into the sun
Leave a bloody trail for others to find

Following the sound of a lonely heart
Brought only false hope that I might be freed
I was led astray in the howling dark
The one way out is through the blood I bleed

I've given up hope of living in peace
I only wish now that my heart would cease

Savior.I have this darkness deep inside me,
It's what influenced this writing.
I can't control it, I can't fight it,
Barely know it, and can't hide it.

I'm just a mess with no ambition;
So much less than I envisioned.
How much more can I endure?
I don't know, I'm not too sure...

I'm not myself when I'm alone,
And yet I find I'm on my own.
I'm like a lock without a key,
There is no perfect fit for me!...

You're not alone.
Don't think like that.
Pick your head up.
I believe in you.
You can do it.
I love you...

Are you here to prove me wrong?
To make me see the brighter dawn?
With this darker side, this part of me,
How can you love

HurricaneI don't really know
How all of this came to be
When I already know
She can do better than me

I feel like she's the desert
And whenever I hold her hand
I realize that makes me
Nothing more than a grain of sand

I can't help but ask myself
How is it that she's with me?
I'm just a mess when I'm alone
And I'm fucking up constantly

She's amazing...
In every way, shape, and form
Like the calm of the night
Or like the eye of a storm

(And if that storm were to break...)

I always have the thought
That if people were rain
l would be just a drop
And she'd be the hurricane...

Wonder.Do you fear your own death?
Is it hard to conceive?
Draw in your last breath, then-
Your last breath will leave.

Isn't it strange to think,
That there's a timer above your head?
A countdown you can't see,
That finishes when you're dead.

Don't you ever wonder,
What it'll be like when you're gone?
I bet the world will keep on spinning.
There will be another dawn.

But the harsh reality behind it-
We're all going to die.
There's no reason to try to fight it
Not even to question why.

It makes me wish that I could have a little more to give,
Because I'm not afraid of how I'll die...

I'm afraid of how I'll
Live...

In my Lover Arms ForeverI've waited for you for a long time
But time has kept us apart
Through the years that has happened
All I wish was to see you for a life time

Time has been cruel to all
But to me this is what fate tells us
Deep inside we were always meant to be
Cause your my lover and forever my future

Its been said to all
that we always had a purpose to live
Now I speak the truth to all
Cause my heart always tells me its right

Its been for so long
that I never had this feeling
Until the day that I met you
I knew that I was free to this world

Life has its moments to all
I have got to say that this was best of all
All the thing that we share

'Goodbye' Isn't Always...You don't know my secret pain
The pain I hide from every day
Every smile fades away
Etched in every word I say
But to you I seem okay

Well, that's just on the surface
Nothing about me is perfect
It's safe to say that I'm worthless
I've got no plan nor a purpose

And I can't begin to explain how it feels to be ignored
By the ones you love, by the ones that you care for
It hurts more than you could ever imagine
And I'm not having this anymore

You burrow under my skin when you assume that I'm okay
That I've never had to deal with any sort of real pain
I've been through more than you could ever forget
This experience alone is solel

Never Bow Down. (Failure In Denial)Your poisoned words are your weapon of choice,
Paralyzing me with just the sound of your voice.
Whispering your lies and getting under my skin,
But I can see right through you 'cause you're so paper thin!

Are you really so heartless?
Behind your lies is there any truth?
Can you tell I don't want this!?
I will never bow down to you!

You say across my skin is where my short comings compile,
And that my scars remind you I'm a failure in denial!
No matter what you've always had the upper hand,
Holding me under for reasons none understand!

GOD DAMN!!

Are you really so heartless?
Behind your lies is there any truth?
Can you tell I d

Love is Just a Word Until Someone Comes Along...Lay awake, I'm robbed of sleep
I hear the raindrops tap the street
Forgetting all I've fallen for, I can't go on
I can't be more

Hidden behind tapestries
Adorned with painful memories
Slowly realize what you've done, I've lost it all
I've come undone

A fallen angel at your feet
A broken mess at your mercy
Heartless in my time of need, you walked away
You watched me bleed

Holding out for fate unknown
A missing piece, an empty home
Living life with no one there, I know I'm lost
But I don't care

Within the boundaries of myself
Crying out for someone's help
Wishing for, with all my heart
They'll stop the pain and light the dar

These FlamesI find, the flames attractive
As I watch this city burn away
So close, I almost had it
I lost it all when I turned away

My heart is full of broken dreams
Shattered hopes and memories
Everything that causes pain
Like a drop of acidic rain

The wind blows and it carries with it
Whispered words and the sorrows hidden
Sanctuary among the ashes
But the arson has one more match lit

And I find, the flames attractive
As I watch this city burn away
Was so close, I almost had it
I lost it all when you turned away

I regret every single moment
Without you with your hand in mine
I regret never even knowing
You loved me the entire time

The Secrets These Walls Hold - DarkShutter the light and let the darkness prevail.
If no one can see then who will know that I failed?
I swear I really tried and that I gave it my all;
I'm painfully aware of every one of my flaws...

I simply lay awake unsure if it's night or day,
Covered and consumed by the weight of this crushing darkness.
I hide from my mistakes and I hope that they'll go away,
Believing myself when I say that I'm really heartless...

Now more than ever I need to feel like I did before;
Like a million white roses missing none of their thorns.
You were the only reason I had left to be saved,
To fill the hole in my heart that was becoming my grave...

Document 5Every day I wake up is like a painful memory
One that never goes away not even if I make believe
Every night I make it through only makes the hurt worse
Every second is my suffering, every breath I take, the curse

I've wasted all these moments trying so hard to pretend
That there's something still inside me that allows my heart to mend
It's like the air I breathe attempts at suffocating me
Until I collapse onto the the ground and my chest gives one last heave

And I try so hard to be, beyond the shadow of a doubt
The person there beside you that you can't live without
I know I'm nothing more than the dirt beneath my feet
But that do

Where's The Rest Of Me?I can feel my heart still
Beat against my chest
But It's just a hollow shell
So full of nothingness
I know I look alive but I
Feel so dead inside
Another night that's been left to me
Just to wonder why

Why can't I feel all the things I use to know
Why don't I care when no one else is there
Why can't I be like the way I was before
Can't keep from wondering...
Where's the rest of me?

Where's the rest of me..?

I feel like I'm being torn apart
So lost inside of this terrifying dark
That's been thrown and wrapped around my heart
It gets so damn hard for me to breathe
Can't fill my lungs with air I need so desparately
Can't keep

The Way It IsBroken promises flowing down my wrist
A last breath exhaled and the moments missed
Another heartbeart stops turned to nothingness
Is this the way that it has to be

All you ever gave me were open wounds
And time after time I played the fool
I gave up everything to fill your needs
But not anymore
This is the way that it has to be

Another lie trusted into me
Another shattered and broken dream I see
Living through life without a happy memory
Is this the way that it has to be

Unfortunately
Whenever I see you
I get lost in dreams
That will never come true

I wish they would
Oh, god, I wish they would
But I know that they won't

UntitledThe moon
Hiding behind a sky
Turned dark in this frame of mind
Shedding light, now I'll make you mine
But I lied, cause we're out of time

It's not okay
Suffer everyday
Feeling just the same
Try to find a way

Out
of
this
hell

Maybe someday
I'll end up just like you and
Run away, from it all
Creating my tomb

And I can hear them now
Those words that I'll say
"Darling, I'm sorry I'm leaving so soon"
And I'll disappear, yeah, I'll leave you here
Just like the moon

The rain
Cascading to the ground
In a tidal wave
It comes crashing down

I am not alright
Can you here me cry
As I try to find
Some way

ForeverForever.
That's how long you said we'd be together...

Forever.
That's what you answered when I asked "How long will you love me?"
...remember?

Forever.
I tried everyday, but you never put forth the effort...

Forever.
That's the only answer you ever gave to me...

But...
I guess forever isn't as long as it used to be...

Looking For The HorizonI'm so tired of this regret
I'm so tired of this disease
I'd give it all to forget
Everything you thought of me

I'm so tired of all these thoughts
And the pain that each one brings
But they're all of you I've got
But they're my terminal disease

I'm so sick of being broken hearted
So tired of it all
I'm so sick of being torn apart so
Don't catch me as I fall

I don't want to feel your hand
Gripped between my own
There are things that I don't understand
Just leave me here alone

I don't want to hear your voice
Ringing between my ears
Not if I've got a choice
I'd rather listen to my tears

Because If I don't go on

If Ever I Lost You

by ~Invoking, Dec 16, 2012, 8:19:26 AM
Literature / Poetry / Emotional / Free Verse

What weighs on your mind?
What's taking up your time?
You tell me not to worry and you swear you're really fine

Please open up to me
Tell me of your fears
You know I'll kiss the scars and I'll wipe away your tears

Don't keep it to yourself
You know you're not alone
I couldn't live my life without you ever coming home

I'd be so lost inside
I wouldn't recognize
The person that I see in the reflection of your eyes

Just tell me you're okay, and that you love me too
I don't know what I'd do
If ever I lost you…
