Your body is your home
Your body is the only house
that you'll ever own
It's got some broken windows
and blood stained floors
and its holds many hidden things
behind many hidden doors
There is wisdom in these bookshelves
and laughter to light the room.
Your body is a temple
do not lead it to its doom
Your body is a temple
the only one who can heal it
is you
22
The sun still shines when I'm alone
I lose my mind and you lose control
I see your eyes look through my soul
Don't be surprised-its all I know
I felt the highs and they felt like you
A love like mine's too good to be true
And you're too divine to just be mine
You remind me of the color blue
Girl I'm so in love with you
23
All these words come pouring out;
Pain
It falls down my face in streams of agony
Silence comforted by a quiet sob
All these words come pouring out;
Grief
Each tear a reminder of the times you cried
and I wasn't there to hold you
All these words come pouring out;
Regret
It trembles, spilling onto a lonely pillow
I never stopped loving you and you'll never know
All these words come pouring out;
Fear
It rains on these sleepless nights
I'll never know the truth
All these words come pouring out
But my mouth doesn't speak
All these words come pouring out
and you're not here to wipe my cheek
24
You longed to be endless like the sky
Stuck in the pursuit of beauty
Trying to find yourself
In a world full of falsehoods
25
Your bones pressed against
your skin so hard
you would think that
they were simply dying
to scream out their secrets
to whomever cared enough
to listen
26 What an amazing View
I dont know how to hide my feelings for you.
You're my best friend.
We watched pink and orange
melt into the sky as the sun set.
You leaned over the water tower,
overlooking our washed up town
and you smiled.
"What an amazing view"
Then you looked at me,
with those gentle eyes,
and I thought to myself
What an amazing view
but I just smiled at you.
27
You always wanted
your bones to show
and i never understood why.
When a hug
will snap you in half
and the summer breeze
we once adored
will blow you away.
People wont love you more
when there is less
of you to love.
28
You showed me your scars
expecting me to run off
but little did you know
I was going to show you mine too.
We were closer than we thought.
29
The moment you get knocked down
is the moment that it counts.
And the moment you lose yourself
is the moment you'll be found.
You can see the world so much clearer
when your eyes are filled with tears,
The only way to not be afraid
is to learn to face your fears.

I said I was a writer
and you gave a scheming glance
You wanted to live forever
now you'd found yourself the chance.
You made your way inside me
Clawed right through my veins
Cursed me to write about you
until I drove myself insane
You wished to be the hero,
the lover, the light
But Darling you're no savior,
but the unforgiving night
You wanted to live forever,
but you'll burn out like a star
Now the world will know forever
of the monster you truly are
