Goodnight starlight.

The moon watches over you.

With a promise and a kiss.

That all your dreams come true.

Goodnight Luna.

The angels watch you from the clouds.

May you rest so peacefully.

May you sleep so sweet and sound.

Good morning sunrise.

The sunbeams kiss your face.

I'm too far to be where you are.

To feel your warm embrace.

But please know that if I could, I'd kiss you awake.

Here's my heart, it's broke apart. But it's here for you to take.

Good morning my darling.

What adventures new light brings.

If I were close to you, what songs we both could sing.

Scream.

Go on and scream for me again.

Bleed.

Go on and bleed for me.

I don't care anymore.

But maybe I'll pretend.

Hurt me.

Go on and hurt me again.

Desert me.

But I will no longer defend.

I will no longer defend for you.

Or open up, or play pretend for you.

Love.

Go on and try to love me once more.

Or walk out on me again. Baby, there's the door.

Maybe smile.

Just smile for me again.

Now that it's all over, it may help my heart to mend.

But don't.

Don't you say I didn't try.

Because if you say it, you'll know that it's a lie.

I'm here. Or at least I once was.

But now I fear.

I fear that it's over.

Now I'm writing to you, baby just because.

Because if I didn't tell you how I feel.

You might just forget that our love was once real.

So bleed for me.

Just bleed all over the floor.

It might give my life some color, once you walk right out the door.

Just look me in the eyes.

Just tell me what you feel.

And you might be surprised, how much you love me still.

I gave you my heart, but you threw it all away. I knew this would happen from the start. It can wait another day. I know it will happen soon, when I feel more ready. I knew that are love was doomed. I have to wait for my heart to steady.

I don't need your empty promises, or your cold affection. From here on out, I'm taking my heart in a brand new direction. Its not that I don't need love, but it's for my heart's protection. When I look at the stars up above, I don't like what they're projecting.

You chose another love. You're wrapped up in their arms. I was on the edge, you gave a shove, You must like when I am harmed.

I don't need this shit, I'm so done with you. You tore my heart to bits, but I outgrew The need for your validation, And all your endless frustrations. I'm done with feeling confused. I'm so done feeling used. I'm done with your abuse. You say you didn't mean to hurt me, but you knew.

Isn't it funny how we like to pretend That a few words of comfort have the power to end All of our grief, and all of our pain? Is that why we sometimes walk alone in the rain?

You like to come to me when I am blue. That's what you do. That is so you. Sometimes I wish that you only knew How to make all your words to me seem true.

Your not here with me in the times of my grief. That's why it's sometimes hard to believe that you really care about all my harm, When you're not there with me, Warm in my arms.

Words sometimes help, but I'm in need of affection. That is why I'll continue to go in the direction Of the songs of the trees, of the birds and the bees. But I can't move any further. I'm trapped in the weeds.

The sun has set, the moon is full. My heart is empty, I wish it were whole. I won't stop my journey until I've found my SP. My one true love, my destiny.

I know that I haven't found them yet, But I'm not giving up, on that you can bet. My heart my be hurting, but it's not full of regret.

The road is long, confusing and hard. But I'll take it by inch, and I'll take it by yard. Do these words ring out true to you? Do they sing out back to you?

Here we are, now strangers in this room.

I guess I messed it up again.

Here we are, but now there's danger in this gloom.

I sent a message that I shouldn't have sent.

I guess you weren't ready yet. Sometimes I get confused. Maybe I sent it just a little too soon.

Now I'm sitting in regret, and I don't know what to do. I have a habit of misreading the room.

But that's okay, I'll just sit on my feelings awhile. And let the tensions dissipate.

It will wash away, and I'll get back my smile. I'll just let it happen. It's not mine to create.

Things will work out fine.

Good things just take time.

Love isn't something that you can force.

Things that are divine.

Happen in their own time.

Love is something that takes its own course.

I hope that it's okay.

Maybe we can still be friends.

I'll just go away.

And wait for your message I hope you will send.

Love is coming soon.

Maybe not a me and you.

Maybe not for years.

I'll just be holding back my tears.

You didn't want me.

But I understand.

It was a simple invitation.

Not a harsh demand.

My love might be unrequited.

But it's alright with me.

I knew, when you went quiet,

That it wasn't meant to be.

Things will work out fine.

Good things just take time.

Love isn't something that you can force.

Things that are divine.

Happen in their own time.

Love is something that takes its own course.

I honestly love it here, and hope to keep posting. But, every now and then I see a redditor passing off my work as theirs. If this continues to happen, I may have to leave this community. I don't believe my fans would enjoy seeing this happen.

So much heartbreak in this room.

Among so many happy smiles.

We're all trying to hide our gloom.

With charcuterie, wine, and style.

Everybody dressed up to their nines.

Talking over music, jokes, laughter and cheap wine.

But when the music ends, everything freezes for a moment.

Everybody looks around so awkwardly.

Something seems off to you, now don't it?

Somebody makes a comment,

Hey DJ, please let the music play.

The DJ says, hold on, I'm on it.

Everyone laughs, and goes about their day.

Somebody says, hey baby, would you like to dance?

Her eyes go wide, she tries to hide, she says sorry, but I don't have time for romance.

Somebody chokes on their cracker, someone else awkwardly laughs.

A woman says, hey what's the matter?

He was only asking for a dance.

Everyone looks around the room.

Not sure of how to react.

But hey, it's a masquerade. So they put back on their masks.

Masks are fun for some.

But it's a good way, to hide your heartbreak.

I think this party's done.

It's done now, no one has time for what they're feeling,

For God's sake.

So the dj puts on another tune.

And the tension suddenly leaves the room.

But one joker tries to ask for a dance again.

A hush falls over the room.

People caught up in the gloom.

Everybody freezes, caught up in a trance again.

So put on your party masks.

It's time to joke and laugh.

Just don't bring up your feelings or emotions.

Just have fun is what I ask.

Can't you read the room or it's math.

Drink the punch, yes drink the potion.

If there ever comes a time, when you extend a hand to me.

I would gladly take it, baby can't you see.

There's no need to fake it. I think we both know deep inside.

Here's my hand so take it. There's no need to hide.

This may be a chance, given to two lost souls. I will be warm and loving and patient.

How can I help you understand, That my hand is here to hold. I will wait for you. I think that we could make it.

But if you want to sit with me, baby that's ok too. There's no need to rush something good.

Could you ponder it with me, baby that's just what we'll do. There's no rush, I don't think that we should.

I could be your fire, to keep you warm at night. I could take you higher, than any airplane flight.

If you want to talk for hours, you know that I am down. If you want me to buy you flowers, just ask and I'll come around.

So if you ever get the notion, of trying out my love, you know that I am open. I promise not too be too much.

But if you are ready, you better open your floodgates soon.

You'll never know hands so steady. I just hope your heart has room.

Do you love me still?

Now that our moment has faded?

Do you ponder still?

Remembering all the memories we've created?

Do you miss me still?

Was our love overstated?

Do we still have it still?

Have our memories faded?

Have they faded out of view?

Is there still a me and you?

Have you given it much thought?

Do you still love me or not?

I don't want to let go of forever.

I still think we have a chance.

I don't want it to fade into never.

Can I have just one more dance?

Just one more dance with you.

Just another chance with you.

A chance to feel your body heat again.

To smell your scent so sweet again.

Please don't say that we're at an end.

Do you think upon me still?

All the love that we once shared?

Do you remember our love still?

All the love that once was there?

Do you think upon our love?

Or have all the good times faded?

I can never get enough.

You never once left me feeling jaded.

I don't want to let go of you.

I don't want to let go of our love.

I still love you, I really do.

I miss our innocence, hope and trust.

People tell me I'm a fighter.

I fight until my heart and mind are sore.

But I will keep on fighting.

Fighting until I've forgotten,

Just what I've been fighting for.

I'm fighting the good fight.

Until I find a love so true.

I'm fighting all your suitors, and fighting for our future.

I'm fighting my way back to you.

And when the fighting's done.

I'll come right home to you.

With a mouthful of blood, and this trophy that I've won.

And a love that's all for you.

People say that I'm a warrior.

Because I never give up or give in.

And I'll always come back for more.

Until I lose or win.

But you can't hold me down for long.

Not when I got you in my corner.

And I have your heart and song.

Yes, you help me be strong.

I know that your afraid of getting hurt.

But I'm right here by your side.

So I'm sorry, but that excuse no longer works.

You no longer have to hide.

Sometimes, the simplest things,

Can be the answer to the question.

I'll take you, under my wing.

Let me tell you my confession.

I know that you probably won't believe me when I say.

But I'm in love with you.

So I'm sorry, but it couldn't wait another day.

And I hope you know it's true.

Sometimes, the simplest answers,

Can be what we're looking for.

I know your doubting all my answers.

But I love you to your core!

I know that people have been treating you bad.

And you never had anyone to hold to.

I know that life can get so sad.

You never had anyone to show you.

So let me, take you under my wing,

I could be the answer to your questions.

The questions, you only ask when you sing.

My school is now in session.

The fact is that I love you.

And you know I always have.

That feeling always felt so up above you.

Baby, please don't be sad.

Because I love you.

Yes I do.

Without a single doubt in my mind.

Completely, and honestly.

I will never leave you behind.

Unspoken words.

Unbreakable silence.

All this tension in this dark room.

Can lead to unspeakable violence.

An unbroken bond.

An unbreakable trust.

But that all could end soon.

It could all turn to dust.

You smile over at me.

But it doesn't reach your eyes.

The way you're looking at me.

It makes me feel like I want to die.

You ask me what's wrong.

And I say, "nothing I'm fine."

But I think that all along.

You knew that it was a lie.

This silence used to comfort me.

But I see that dangerous spark behind your eyes.

So I smile back nervously.

But the smile doesn't reach my eyes.

Honey can we talk you ask.

But you say it through gritted teeth.

I see you, you're wearing that mask.

I see your rage underneath.

We talk and I see you getting red.

You raise your hand to hit me.

But you put it down instead.

But I can take it, go on and get me.

I'm not afraid of you.

Maybe I want to get burned.

It might be what you're made to do.

Teach me a lesson I should have learned.

Go ahead, give me the belt.

Let me feel the sting on my skin.

Get your anger out, you might as well.

Teach me your lesson, go on, begin.

From the moment I saw you in the darkness.

I knew that me and you had a spark.

From the moment you caught my eye, but I'm not really sure of why.

I could sense your light, even from the dark.

From the moment that I heard you whispering my name.

You were saying it, just like a secret prayer.

The way you said it, I knew that it wasn't in vain.

You were calling for me, hoping I'd find you there.

I came to you in that darkness.

But I could see you clearly.

I could sense your hope and sharpness,

And in that moment, I loved you dearly.

A secret moment in time.

A hope so fragile yet strong.

Two hearts beating, just yours and mine.

A secret hope, a secret song.

From the very first moment that I saw you,

Something about you caught my eye.

Now I never want to be without you.

I never really stopped to wonder why.

A secret moment in the dark.

A magic moment caught in time.

I knew you were special from the start.

A secret moment, both yours and mine.

Sometimes I hear people say,

You have to stop and smell the roses.

But for God's sake, I can only take my breaks in small doses.

Everyone around me is stealing all my time.

Is it a shock to you, do you have a clue

That I'm out of my mind?

All that I can smell at all

Is blood, death, sex and alcohol.

The only way that I can feel,

Is my daily dose of sanity pills.

Your confusing love has left me in a haze.

Been feeling lust and lost for days and days.

You seem to think you know what I've been thinking.

But if you knew what was in my head, you'd be dead or drinking.

I take another shot of alcohol.

I wash it down with too much Tylenol.

You may say stop to me.

What, am I insane?

But sometimes babe, it's the only way to numb the pain.

Walking down the street with two left feet.

But I've forgotten where I'm going.

I feel the sun it's no fun when I feel the heat.

But my walk shows no sign of slowing.

I take another shot of what's in the vial.

I may have a problem, but right now I'm in denial.

Insert the needle, I feel the poison in my veins.

It may be insane, but it helps to kill the pain.

I read through our texts, and I had to laugh.

We were so young and ignorant then.

You and me weren't adding up, when I did the math.

But I get under your spell now and then.

Sometimes it was good, but you lost my trust.

Didn't think that we should. Wasn't love it was lust.

The black magic of your ways.

It kept me in a spell for days.

The dark magic of your touch!

You left me never getting enough.

But in the end, like that letter that I never sent,

It just ended up being too much!

I read through our letters, and I had to cry.

I read through them not feeling better.

And they left me wondering why.

Why something that seems so good in the moment, can always end up feeling so hollow.

Why something so tangible, just like you can own it, flys away just like a swallow.

The black magic of your ways.

It kept me in a spell for days.

The dark magic of your touch!

You left me never getting enough.

But in the end, like that letter that I should have sent,

It just ended up being too much!

But black magic or not, sometimes rotten things rot.

And baby, you just were no good.

And something so cold was once something so hot. I knew that we never could.

I knew that we could never really make it.

I offered you my love, but you never seemed to take it.

I gave you my heart, and all you did was break it.

You promised me love, but you only faked it!
