i've given up my dream to follow another's
   many times
that has left me dreamless
   and alone.

The fainted whispers echo around him
They consume every piece of dignity he contains,
They stretch out and reach to grab his pain
And laugh and eventually make this poor soul go insane
What are these people doing you ask?
They are taking his ****** orientation and make him go aghast;
The fact that people nowadays throw a face of disgust over two guys holding hands
Makes me want to go lay in a soft bed of sanity,
Because I support the rainbow community
If it makes him feel better I will go and buy a rainbow bumper sticker to prove my loyalty
To heal any wounds exposed to him
To heal any wounds that control him
My dear friend:
Don't you dare force yourself to a girl to make the blank and ugly stares fade
To make every aching day go away
No don't do this,
Grab your secret lovers hand
Dance with flare and don't turn around
Your past is in the past
Your future may lie ahead
But present, don't let it control you
Don't let manipulation takeover you

lately happiness seems to come and go
like a lover who bores easily
as i don't offer them enough to stay
while the depression always returns
like an abuser, it's fists made of ravage fire
masquerading loyalty and love i know is insincere

"You are twisted
and your tongue permanently tastes of cherries." -
you say,
but I just tie cherry knots
with my fruit-infused tongue,
and laugh at your complaints.
Red neon numbers remind me
of your lips on mine.
Gripping at the empty side of the bed,
wishing I were somehow still in your head.
You and I were similiar and collided
in coexisting lives.
I can see a jaw drop
the hand moving south
as if to slip into the knife drawer
of a total solar eclipse.
Six shots deep so I could forget your name,
and all of the reason I love you.
Instead I sat there
with him,
(not you)
crying over cherry stems.
