Somewhere on the other side of this wide night
and the distance between us, I am thinking of you.
The room is turning slowly away from the moon.
This is pleasurable. Or shall I cross that out and say
it is sad? In one of the tenses I singing
an impossible song of desire that you cannot hear.
La lala la. See? I close my eyes and imagine the dark hills I would have to cross
to reach you. For I am in love with you
and this is what it is like or what it is like in words.

The Words You Left Unsaid
▛ Watching from a distance, I see him. Laughing in the outside, but crying inside. Of course I know, I've known you for years. But all those years, have you taken the time to know me? I was the one who was always with you, whether you're crying about something, or overly joyed about something. I was always there, beside you. But all those times, you never said it. Even until the day you were whisked away out of my reach. ▟ The Words You Left Unsaid || Ⓒ SkyeWitch, August 20, 2017 - January 27,2018 (Completed) Sep 3,2017 = #906 - 901 Sep 4,2017 = #751 Sep 6,2017 - #492 Sep 27,2017 - #568 Sep 28, 2017 - #444 October 1,2017 - #397 October 2.2017 - #349Complete

What started as an innocent lie, trapped them into a marriage, entwining their fates with unexpected partners. But here's the catch, the marriage won't last forever, the holy bond wasn't so holy, a contractual bond emerged, benefitted them both and bound them together, at least for a while. Falling in love was thrown out of the window the moment she signed the contract, she wasn't going to fall in love with an egoistic, arrogant and self-centred-asshole of a lawyer anyways. ••• "No love drama, right?"

Wings of Butterflies
Hoping to shake this human off once and for all, I twisted my body around rapidly with a plan to put my words into action. When I was on my way to push this man as deep into the floor as possible my body all of the sudden went rigid. When my body froze solid, so did my brain. It took me several seconds to get out of my trance and when I finally did, all that was running through my mind were two words. Those eyes. All of the feelings that I had been hiding for the last 160 years were now coming crashing down on me. They were literally shooting out from this human's eyes like fire. A fire that burned into my core.Complete![As Time Slows Around Us [Poetry]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/364915106-256-k829010.jpg)
