Blood Blooms

"For every night without you, blood blooms from my body like a flower."

Tomorrow will not erase my love for you.

People so often promise

that tomorrows hold

the possibility of change,

but with each new day,

I find that one thing

remains the same:

my love for you

only grows stronger,

as each hour ticks away.

One More Thing Hanging Over Your Head

"I could’ve been your everything, your reason to keep going, your savior, your lover, your light in the dark. Instead, you treated me like I was just another obstacle. Now I’m just one more thing you’ve lost, one more thing hanging over your head."

Rubble and Debris

"The love I felt for you was something capable of moving mountains; it was everything powerful and strong - we could’ve built empires hand-in-hand, raised kingdoms from ashes and ruin. But perhaps you felt something stronger, if even possible, for someone or something else…and maybe that is why you left me flailing neck deep in rubble and debris."

Don't put your happiness in other people's hands.

"I placed my sense of self in the palms of a soul that promised me more than he could muster. I placed my love in the palms of a man who would watch it overflow until he lost sight of how to handle it. I placed my happiness in the palms of my everything, and I watched as he dropped it, like it was nothing."
