It comes and goes in waves,
Her feeling of longing.
She stays lost in thought of him,
While he remains oblivious.
So many feelings buried within.
Ease. Casual conversation, making jokes.
The appearance of two people connecting.
A beautiful child asking for the man
She calls daddy, crushing another’s heart.
He has his reality,
There’s no room for her in it.
In failed attempts to move on,
She’s scared to move forward.
I can’t seem to escape. I’m stuck.

the only heart that will beat for you forever
is the heart in your own chest.
your hands don't look like
hands anymore.
even the dirt under
your fingernails
hates you.
your skin melts to dust
every time you think.
scabs on your fingers
from when you decided
you didn't want
fingers anymore.
you can still smell
your rotting bone.
rip off your fingernails
you never should have had
any anyways.
take them and slice your
palm, put a hand print
on the stone, an oath
that someday you'll
be better.
even the dirt under
your filthy skin
hurts you.

The grip of his hand,
Slowly pulled me out of darkness.
He picked up the shattered pieces off the ground,
And show me the way out of abyss.
Here's to my baby. :)
