you are my pretty yellow sunflower

who gives me the willpower,

to stand up tall, no more coward

and shine bright like early morning hours,

after years of stormy rain showers

With our hearts conjoined

and our fingers interlinked

we slowly merge, colliding

our bodies creating friction

sparks fly, our sweat

evaporates and the fire

between us quickly increases

molding us beautifully together

until we are one

i am so broken,

sadness has become my comfort

the dark is all I know,

so to light i am stubborn

sometimes a life full of

happiness and love, i wonder

but my worn out heart

no longer beats or flutters

each day is torture,

however i know what to expect

so any form of joy,

i simply reject

and the dark rainy clouds,

I willingly accept -

because anytime

happiness came along

disappointment would

intercept…

my depression holds me into a state of paralysis

but this is much safer given my analysis

how can i be hurt if i just lay rotting?

there's so much danger around and people are always

plotting

being alone means there is no one i can burden

because i am a destructive failure, i am certain

it appears my hands have become necrotic and dead

everything i touch, i destroy because my head -

is a place of pure darkness and pollution

for this, i am unable to find a resolution

so i stay stuck and have it consume me -

swallowed whole happiness feels like it is intruding…

A smile that can illuminate a thousand pitch black

skies

and dark chocolate hues scattered across her

espresso eyes,

distracting me from her sweet, sugar coated lies -

spilling from her cherry stained lips without any try

Her hug gripped me tightly like a garden of thorny

vines,

crushing each vertebra into pieces from my

weakened spine -

just to shape and mold me into her perfect design

leaving my entire existence solely up to her desire

She is my savior

and my ultimate creator

To her, I repent my sins

and gracefully surrender my wins

I worship her day and night,

from dark to light

I give her all of myself

and leave nothing for anyone else

I eat, sleep and breathe her

until my sense of self blurs

I am diseased, I fear

and her love is my only cure…

and her love is the only cure

I struggled to look her in the eyes..

They were big, brown and undeniably

persuasive.

Even just one glance sends me into a deep

hypnotic and unforgiving trance.

The shiny but promising glimpse in her

beautiful eyes sang sweet lullabies to my

feigning soul.

I indulged heavily in this angelic song, as

each tune precariously danced through my

vacant mind and out my beating heart.

Her gaze will forever be embedded into my

daydreams...

Beautifully bound core to core,

I helplessly ponder upon myself -

I have been here before…

You smell of absolute familiarity,

a scent of comforting warmth -

or a scent of pure rarity.

My hands imprinted in your skin,

resembling ancient fossils from long ago -

an old past love I cannot pin

or an overwhelming sense of déjà vu.

I cannot wrap my mind around this,

in another lifetime I have loved you.

My pillow knows me better than anyone else

as it has beared every ounce of pain I felt

My silent screams lurked inside soft feathers,

and underneath was filled with unsent letters

Nightly waterfalls of soft, tear soaked fabric

holding all of my sorrow and feelings of tragic

Holding up my weakened neck as I rot into despair

while I whisper the secrets I would never share

I do not have a closet full of skeletal bones

instead they are hiding in my pillow kept

close…
