• I want to run away with you . . .

somewhere far . . .

where the wolves have gone missing

• I think

the star in you wants to give light to other people

and I think

I need it to help me find my way.

• She had tragic eyes—

sad eyes as if she had seen too much or had too many stars

die

within the edge of her pupils.

• So please,

love her and love her well.

She is not meant to live forever but the idea is to make her feel as if she is the center of the universe . . .

every single day.

• Always in me,

there is an ocean and sometimes

it’s calm, while other nights it drowns the people I love.

• Always in me,

there are sides of you and some nights you don’t have me,

while other nights I can’t escape what you’ve done.

• It hurts

because you’re up every night thinking why does it hurt so damn much without knowing why.

And lastly, it hurts because feelings matter and you could never run far enough

from all the things you feel.

• this must be the place

my mother warned me about

this must be the place

i swore i’d never visit

but i’m here

and for some reason

it feels like home

i hear the angels

but they won’t reach me

• I think I wanted you to save me. I waited for you to breathe life into my fragile body and aching soul.
• (always and over again.)

and that’s the problem, love

you’re constantly trying

to save the same man

who could never keep

your heart safe

• i know the hell of searching for angels

where only devils dwell

• (ludicrum 9.)

we’re not sleeping just to rest

we’re closing our eyes

just to escape the things

that haunt us while we’re awake

• (gone by daylight.)

like the stars embedded

into the night sky

she belonged to the moon

and she was never yours

to keep

• What do you say to a girl who becomes familiar with heartache before she’s legal enough to drink? What are words to a girl who is used to getting hurt by everyone claiming to care? All these young souls drowning in sadness before knowing how to swim.
• she was the moon

to my darkened sky
