humiliated
distorted
abandoned
scared

why did you leave me
what did I do wrong
I tried to comfort you
I tried to help you
I lent my shoulders
so you could cry on them
I lent my heart
so you could pour out to it

now tell me
what did I do wrong

What type of person are you?
Are you the one to stand up and fight
or do you put down your guns and surrender?
Do you wish you had metal armor and everything richoted, or do you sit and take a beating till you can't breathe?
I know what I am. I wear iron and my eyes light up like fire.
I dare you to say something, do something so I can show you what I'm made of
Go on, give it a try.

apollo's dead-set light shines on beauty.
the gushing of blood boils high in the guilty crowns of gored kings.

TO COURT BEAUTY IS TO BATHE IN IMMACULATE, ETHEREAL ECSTASY!

YOU ARE NOT WORTHY.

ichor spills in the cursed name of the light-born.
blessed with the scrutiny to scorch the iciest of hearts.

they sit on their faux thrones, just above Olympus,
with the wide eyes of wander and lust;
the bodies of gold and trust.

they sit high on their thrones,
with their own
black-light sun.

they sit on their broken thrones
stained with the blood of seraphim.

beings of smokeless fire burn away the truth

and we love them anyway.
For Joseph, who always seems to light my fire

(Not about you, though you really know how to get me writing)
I imagined I gave you,
All the love in every vein I could,
Every part of me I thought was good,
And every word I knew I should,
Share with you.

I imagined your hand in mine,
Comforting me when I was down,
Pulling me out when I almost drowned,
Accepting me when I found,
Another inside.

I imagined I held you,
When your ocean eyes were filled with tears,
When your perfect heart was drilled with fear,
When all you wanted was not to hear,
Deafening noise.

I imagined I was there,
When happiness lost its ring,
When you needed me more than anything,
When all you wanted was to hear me sing,
My love to you.

I imagined a world where you and I could share glances with each other,
Or gaze for eternity,
Where time lost its hold,
And let us slip between the hours,
In an endless embrace

I imagined an infinity of loving you,
But none of it outshone reality.

Anytime my coffee gets cold
I can't help but think of you
It scalds my mouth as I drink it too fast
But the pain doesn't compare
To that I feel missing you

I wish
I could go up
And
Not come down

I always ask myself                                                                                                 Why most people choose that unbelievable loneliness                                         Anytime,anywhere,and everywhere ?                                                                      There a lot of pretty things in life ,but                                                                        Why loneliness ?!                                                                                                         Is it because that loneliness means happiness or                                                       Anything to people ?                                                                                                   There is no doubt that loneliness is                                                                             A cure - as I think - to some people                                                                             To flee or to run away from a bad reality ...                                                          I myself sometimes choose to be alone                                                                    For many reasons ...                                                                                                Loneliness is not bad if it means                                                                               To revise a few things ...                                                                                            Life is often hard and difficult ...                                                                               I sometimes don't know and                                                                                    If somebody knows better than me ,then                                                                He or she needs to tell me                                                                                         About what's going around us anytime ...                                                                ___________________­__
