As he twirled the paper in his hands; the pen caressing the contours of his pale hand, pieces of me cascaded around us. The words emanating from the front of the room reflected frustratingly off my skin as if it were a shield, and shattered to the floor. Joining them were the pleading looks of at least one love-struck child; his face twisted with jealousy and yearning. If I could place my self in any one of our witnesses situation, I too would have surely felt the need to stare. Satellites in our eyes, he pressed his lips together defiantly, scrawled something fluent and irresistible on the paper before folding it and, never once looking down, he slid the words across to me. My heart swelled against my chest, blood slamming into my ribcage so hard I thought it would crack under the pressure, the pressure rising in me as I dared to think what was written under the safety of the white sheet, covering the thoughts intended for only me. Color throbbed under my translucent temples, blue veins pulsing arrhythmically and before I could stop it, my ribs did crack. My heart spilled over to meet his arms as I reached my hand out; the last piece of me fell, but I did not lose it. It melted into his eyes as they smouldered before me, and the ice cold touch did little to calm the sweetly burning skin. The smile broke across his face, and he placed my hand gently back in my lap. Again, he deliberately moved the paper towards me and I looked down. Breathing a little deeper and finally regaining some composure, I began to unfold the note; my skin burned where he'd left his unintentional mark.

Love

 

You light up my life like the sun in the morning

You give me hope like its a brand new dawning

you make my heart jump like its never leapt before,

i know that i love you right down to the core,

 

 

if love is a song then i'll sing it to you,

If love is a poem then i'll read it to you,

if love is an essay then i'll write about you

but i know in my heart my love is for you

 

You dont even know how i feel every day

My heart aches and how i wish the pain away

Our eyes meet so sudden, my heart skips a beat

You tell me you love me, and i dance with my feet

 

if love is a song then i'll sing it to you,

If love is a poem then i'll read it to you,

if love is an essay then i'll write about you

but i know in my heart my love is for you

 

Oh you love me as a friend, and its nothing more than that

That pains me to know and i want nothing so bad

i always think of you, Im going out of my mind

your driving me crazy, i know we're destined

 

oh i know (oh i know)

 

till the end (till the end)

 

that your all (that your all)

 

that i want (that i want)

 

Cause i know in my heart that my love is for you

I watched as the look on her face turned from disbelief to stone. Glittering brown eyes fell back underneath the eyelashes soaked with both salty tears and the clean rain. Then, in a moment too fast for even me to process, she fell to the ground as if she were falling straight from the sky. I threw myself beside her; eyes scanning the ebony curls fanning out around her lovely face, intermingling with the dirt and ochre leaves. If it weren't for the lifeless, rose ivory seeping between the pale blue petals and chocolate fringes my world would have disappeared altogether. I pulled her body upwards and close to me, desperate to hear a heartbeat; I wanted her body to mould to mine in recognition, to wrap her tiny arms around my waist surely. But they lay there, almost romantic; as if she were holding a flower between her fingertips, which were clutching at air beside her fragile chassis. I lay my head down next to hers, easily feeling the ice cold nature of her skin. She was supposed to melt me with her blush, passion rising beneath her startling cheeks as I kissed her neck, but now it felt no more special than as if I were kissing my own. My conscience heaved gasping sobs into her perfumed hair as my lips could not help but graze her edges, tracing them like a work of art. I could feel all thoughts and memories draining from my head, warm and fluid like blood and thick with sin. As I tried to open my eyes against the immeasurable ache of internal contusion, I realised that the flow was not an imagination. It was actuality, seeping out from her paper surface while I revelled in it.

BREAKING AWAY

 

 

I am breaking away

from everything you wanted me to say

and all the things you thought that i would be

I am breaking

Away

 

I am trying, to find

the words that hold my head up

keep me from losing my mind

the clock is ticking

my friend we are running out of time

we are breaking

away

 

we are running through streets

of ones who dont believe

so believe in me

while we just break, break, break

away

 

And when it's too soon to look back

but it hurts us to look forward

when your strength is all you have

can help me push us toward

a new day, while we both

break away

 

 

I am breaking away

from everything you wanted me to say

and all the things you thought that i would be

I am breaking

Away

sunday left me bruised and bloody

and monday's just hanging on

by the thread of my weaker days;

we'll hold on and look on in dismay.

 

our walls are toppling,

and our lives are open and,

i heard something that sounded

something like a promise,

i'll hold you to the wall and,

i'll hold you to it all.

 

our time is running out faster

than my legs can carry me

you're heavier than my shoulders can carry and,

we're falling behind; fooling our minds.

 

they say your heart's still beating

they're beating me to the end,

it's the end, but they say

your lies are still living, beating,

bring them down.

 

we're here, bring them down.

Here's some new stuff :)

 

Blinded by the person I'm becoming

I am falling deeper into myself

No words can save me

From the one I fear to be

Fighting to stay above the surface

Not to drown in me

 

If I close my eyes

My nightmare returns

Shielding myself from an internal attack

I try to hold my anger back

Don't want to be

The one I feel

That I am becoming

 

------

 

A small light in a big darkness

Feeling hopelessly empty

The sparkle vanquished

By an outsider fight

And now we've lost the moment
