Blissful Nobody Aug 2018
Your breath sweetens,
The taste of that kiss.
Quivering lips send ripples,
Down my spine.

Inhale in deep,
Exhale this passion inside me.
Breath again on my skin,
Put a soft blush on my cheeks.

As this gentle breeze,
Wafts and glides,
Swirls into the folds,
And ridges of my ears,
I ruffle like a dry leaf,
Laying on the ground.

I feel this misty portion,
In the hollow of my neck.
Like a blizzard envelopes me,
I lay now shivering .

Breathe into me-this sweetness,
A taste of ecstasy.
Flow tenderly sweet one,
And quench me of this desire.
Breathe.

That night
we nearly drowned
in a downpour

and when the sun
seared the morning
we didn't catch our breath.

hold my breath and count to five
I do this multiple times a day to keep myself from losing it

I can't stop
will always relent
can't just forget
a life without
impossible
I need you
but even air
can be toxic

you're like breathing

You hurt
Yet not with blood
Yet still you breathe
At least you breathe
Keep breathing
Please

You shake
And shiver
A fearful lone quiver
Yet still you breathe
At least you breathe
Keep breathing
Please

You live
You survive
I hope you can thrive
Forgive my lies
For you, I’ll stop breathing
Stop breathing
Stop

You hurt
I hurt
I’ve cried through the times
You’ve cried through my lies
The Blue Man is coming
For me to stop breathing
Stop breathing
Stop

At least the Blue Man
Isn’t coming for you
I’ve lured Him to me
With my silly false truths
You just keep breathing
Keep breathing
And someday
I’ll breathe again
Too
But if I don’t
I will always love you
I had to pick myself up and save myself. But in order to do that, I had to let part of myself go.

I hate being alone.
I start to pull my hair out,
I see things,
I go insane.
Little by little.
Cut by cut.
Blink by blink.
Breath by breath.
Being alone, is my worst fear.

The sound of a sigh
From a lovers lips
It echos through the night
It reverberates through every cell
Creating a hum under the epidermis

Breathing gets heavy
Inhale
1
2
Exhale
The heart only speeds
When sweat forms on their skin
Adorn by salty appetence

This is the sweetest taste
Of lips on a secret place
Teeth clamped in skin
Lovers wrapped in sin
Bodies traversing what it is to couple
They'll lay quiet for quite a while
Bodies humming and hands intwined
Feeling forever  is this instant

Guiltless love
Uncontaminated by fear
They could spend eternity here
The day goes on
So do they
They hold forever
In their hearts and minds
Until after the end times

It is harder than I anticipated
Going through each dark day alone
Will you please silence the suffering
Are you not tired of being alone?

Never have encountered such an ache
Cuts deep into every nerve
I want to say that its all your fault
But I think pain is what I deserve

Nobody is the villain, the "bad" guy
You gave an apology
I was naive for thinking
You wanted to stay with me

Only thing I regret
Not noticing something had changed
Wish I could go back in time
Have the situation rearranged

What's done is done and can't be erased
Like everything I wish I could change in the past
The best I can do is keep breathing
And try to make memories last
