Elise
the wires are humming again
she's covering her ears
while eyes flicker
and breath quickens
she asked me to help her **** the parts that hung off her like the tails of ghosts that she claims trace the hallways
she tried to cut out the hardware that embedded itself in her skin
I could hear the metal hitting the floor as I lay asleep
but when I awoke she claimed it was only the bugs dancing in the night
they knocked over the candles and that blew out the light
I used to believe everything she said when she used to talk about how the sky was every color
she said she could see them in my eyes
my eyes are darker than night now
the sun lives downstairs
but he rarely comes to check on us anymore

I don't mind
The flow of her hair
is the same
as a river flowin' gently,
and as I close
my eyes
every time,
all I see is her image;
she's the sun,
my sun,
whenever the day
is rainy.
The texture of her lips
are formed
perfectly
from rare rubies.
We fell in love in a way
that most people
would say
it only
happens in the movies.
Her eyes
are two white diamonds
that can
pierce
your soul with one look,
she didn't
have to talk,
not even one word,
but with one look,
she spoke so many words.
And yes,
our love will be eternal,
a never-ending
romance,
just as a crystallized
rose;
it'll never age,
nor will it ever die.
And you would never
have to ask
me if my
love
for you would still
exist for you,
because
you would be my why.
Why I breathe,
why I live,
why I write poetry,
my love,
you would be my why.
And I know
for a fact that you
will always
be there
for me.
In my highs,
and in
my lows,
and because of all that,
I want you to know
that
I love you,
Diamond Rose.
I can't help but to ask,
"Have you forgotten
all of those memories
that we both once had?
All of those dreams
that we both made up?
When everything,
including us,
was based
on forever?"

And now every night
I cry to the moon,
saying to Her,
"Do you remember us?
Do you remember how
I loved her tremendously?
Moon, you witnessed it all",
but all that the moon
does
is look the other way,
hiding Her tears.

Even the moon knew
you loved me . .

Leaving

You won't see the tears
crawling out of my eyes
You won't see me drown
on the sea of sadness
Because when I look
In your eyes,
not even a spark
or explosion ignites
No galaxies to explore
in the depths inside
No, you won't even stop me
And if you tell me
you'll miss me,
you don't need to lie
because I'm leaving and
you won't even say goodbye.*

Leaving in a few weeks! You won't even care so whatever :(
Such a hypocrite am I.
For I promised to stop loving.
I promised to continue the journey.
But such a hypocrite am I,
Because I cannot bring myself,
To move on.
Such a hypocrite am I.
For I still love,
Even though,
I should be,
letting go**.
Something to express in this short one. Perspective is a powerful thing you know.
(shout out to my good friends Winter Silk and Blackness!!!)
Sitting near the window pane,
I know I'm going insane.
Outside flies the vehicles so fast,
I know I'm left aghast.

Thinking how time flies so quick,
I know I can no more think.
Just when I feel the breeze,
Reality makes me freeze.

Gone are the days I live,
For now i feel i just survive.
People leave and people come
But I know I left a mark on some.

Am i confused? Am I sad?
Am I anxious? Am I glad?
Am I lonely? Am I doubtful?
All these aside, I know I'm hopeful.
