When the Wrong Direction Is Right.

Alot has changed between us. 
Had the events of today
Occurred a year ago
I'm sure we'd be okay. 
But now things are different, 
I no longer show sympathy.
I cannot question our past, 
For indeed; i loved you. 
But today, that is not true. 
When a year ago i'd give an arm for you, 
Today i'd hardly give you the time of day. 
But perhaps we're better off that way.

Rhymes with Cliché

Concealed behind my lies,
They weren’t my plans,
They were my disguise
Exploited to avoid my hearts’ desire.

Skepticism beyond my soul;
Trusting you proves problematic
While allowing truth to navigate the threshold,
Something strained becomes automatic.

If I don’t have your view
Will I ever gain your heart?
When my mind only desires you,
How could we ever be apart?

A love note; so cliché,
Simply seeing you could make my day.

Savages In Suits

Some people cease to remember
That all people are humans
And they should not be judged.
 
In the place where I was raised, 
Savages wore suits
For each creature could tear down
The walls that others must build, 
In order to avoid these beasts.

I've seen a man
Cry for the sake of another man. 
Does that make him less human?

I've seen a girl, 
No older than thirteen,
Cry for the sake 
Of being lost without a partner
And being torn for being herself.
 
I've seen savages 
Sauntering over the threshold
To buy a prop,
A disgusting guise
To hide their disgusting lies.
 
To spend a thousand dollars
On a cloak, 
A shining cloak
To hide the inside, 
And spew shame to all that dont wear the same. 

Could those who are cloaked 
In thousand dollar disguises
Really be less beastly
Then those humans
Who show their face
And wear it proud
With a sack wrapped around them? 

The warmth of a thousand fur coats
Each made of a different beast
Could warm a human for a lifetime. 
Remove the beastly human guise, 
Warmth will soon follow
In the hearts of all strong enough
To travel through life 
Unadorned.

Closer To Love

It takes the breath from within my chest, 
You engulf me in each kiss, 
Suspended in all time we spend 
In eachothers company
The care and comfort in your arms, 
The warmth within my chest. 
Every kiss 
And every touch
Brings us closer to love.

For Your Eyes Only

You lead me to belive
That it wasn't just me. 
Maybe we could be? 
You lead me on, 
But I was so wrong. 
I started to fall 
But you were gone. 
No one was at the bottom
Waiting to catch me. 
Now I lay here, 
I'm hurting, 
All for you. 
Maybe someday I will heal? 
The wounds of the silence, 
Will they always prevail?
All the cracks,
They could never seal... 
I'm doing this all for you,
This is how you make me feel.

Reflections of Anig

You were all I see,
All I ever cared for,
Now all I can tell you,
Is R-I-P.

I loved your smile,
Your laugh,
Your eyes.
I love the way you sleep at night.
I love how I could always rely,
On the one who always wanted to die.
Your beauty surpasses all that I know,
So let it be,
My friend or foe.
If you love it,
Let it go.

My Only Sin

All the lies that i've said, 
Each vivid word that i bled, 
Never a matter
For my walls were plastered. 
Locked away behind my lies, 
They werent my plans,
They were my disguise. 
But locked away behind these walls, 
The chains that contain me, 
The lies that defy me, 
You were my kryptonite. 
You've been there, 
You've done that. 
Letting you in, 
Spouting my words,
That was my only sin.
