When, 'I'm fine'
becomes your generic answer,
because you know well,
they don't really care about the truth.
When tears just randomly fall,
in a silent, steady succession
and you never knew
...you were even crying.
When you actually,
physically ache inside,
from being so bereft
of even simple human touch.
When the only times
your cries are even heard
by anyone who'd care,
is within' your own head.
When you just want to run-
just start running,
but knowing full well,
you've nowhere, and no one, to run.
When your own traitorous voice
calls out inside you, screaming:
'Outcast! Unlovable! Unworthy!
Why don't you fight back!?
What's wrong with you!???'
And you simply whisper back, 'I'm fine.'
Love me until it hurts,
Youre like poison in my veins,
Youre an addiction,
I fell in love,
I fight for you,
Do I have your word?
Hold me forever,
A sweet and salty smell fills my nose,
Love me through the pain,
Dont ever tell me its over,
I promise to be there for you,
Dont give up on us,
Take my heart and hold it in your hands,
Feel it beating,
Know that this is all true,
I wont ever let you down,
I feel so numb,
Maybe I cut too deep,
It takes a moment to realise youre touching me,
Ive never felt more alone than I do now,
A feeling of freedom washes over me,
Quick sharp gasp,
How do you make me feel this way?
I crave you,
I cant run from the past,
It catches up with me eventually,
Try as I might I cant cut it out,
I feel youre haunting me,
Im addicted to the games,
Youre so beautiful,
Cold and unwavering,
Sharp and precise,
Deeper and deeper you push,
Completely under your spell,
Adrenaline rushes through me,
This thrill is intoxicating,
I never want it to end,
Each time trying to make it better than the last,
Chasing what I can never have,
Forever just out of reach,
You can go on without me,
I mean nothing to you,
All you have ever wanted is to control,
You know you have full control over me.
Have you any idea how much it hurts to love you?
Do you even care?
Like a supernova exploding,
Firing off shards in all directions,
Pockmarked and scarred,
I know you dont care,
Within my dreams its never the truth,
Save me from this,
Let me go,
Love me back,
Tears fall and crash around me,
Cheeks stained,
Wake me up,
Under the scars Im raw,
Fire inside burns hot,
Scortching the flesh,
It hurts.
You stuck a knife in me,
You twisted it and pulled it out,
You watched me bleed,
You enjoyed my suffering,
You couldnt have been more cruel,
You could have tried,
You poked the wound for fun,
You knew when it started healing,
You tore a gaping wound in my heart,
You laughed at my expense,
You liked the attention,
You liked being chased,
You were always going to hurt me,
You just made me blind to it,
You caused enough pain to open my eyes,
You let me slip through your fingers,
You saw my colour fade,
You drained my blood,
You caused scars,
You hurt me,
You never felt anything,
You lead me on,
You discarded me when it wasnt convenient,
You caused excrutiating pain,
You never cared,
You never said sorry and meant it,
You watched the last drop of blood,
You watched me die of a broken heart,
You are twisted,
You are cruel,
You lost me because I walked away.

You told him you loved him.
He told me "I was doing it for us"
You told him you loved him.
He told me “She was just a hole to stick it in”
You told him you loved him
He told me “She was easy”

To me and everyone else you were always Alex C.
I fell in love with Alex C.
I married Alex C.
I travelled with Alex C.
I wanted children with Alex C.
Alex C. Told me I was his everything
Alex C. Told me he could never hurt me
Alex C. Told me I was the only one for him
Alex C. Vowed to be loyal to me forever
My Husband Alex C.
Then one day you were Alexander.
I cried because of Alexander
I broke because of Alexander
I lost my love because of Alexander
I have a hole in my heart because of Alexander.
Alexander knowingly hurt me, more than anyone has hurt me in my life.
Alexander did unspeakable things to me
Alexander broke his vows
Alexander gave himself to someone else.
A whore’s lover, Alexander.
You told everyone you wanted to be Alexander but no one listened. Is that still what you want Alexander?
Hide My Heart
You're coming up
Too often in my thoughts
The welcome remembrance
The spark of your voice
The fact that I get a thrill
When from you I read
Slowly I'm yielding
Gently, I'm slipping
It's time to hide my heart
I refuse to get hurt
You've not come out
To declare that I'm yours
So I refuse
To slowly reserve
Myself for you
That, you don't deserve
I'm hiding my heart
With all diligence
Issues of my life
Require no negligence
So yes, with all might
I'm hiding my heart
I only wish you know,
How much I loved you,
Right from the beginning,
The impact you made when you landed,
From high above,
You fell so far,
Never losing your shine,
The first time I laid eyes on you,
The darkness staring back at me,
We danced and danced,
Orbited each other,
Complementary and clashing,
A comet passed by,
Obscuring the vision,
Leaving a trail of dust and debris,
You fell to earth,
I held you in my arms,
Breathed life into your fading embers,
I gave you my trust,
I thought I had yours,
You exploded in my hands,
Tore me to shreds,
Ripped my heart out,
Left me bleeding and alone,
If you only knew,
How much I had loved you.
