This poison that courses through my veins
Is making me grow depressed
More than usual
Far beyond the rest
It's taking much out of me
Too much than i can provide
And where there used to be a sense of relief
It's no longer there after I've cried
The days go by slowly
And zip by all too fast
The plains of agony lie before me
Overwhelmingly vast
I used to revel in my time alone i spent
It now seems like a suffocating quilt
I'm plagued by emotions-
Sadness, anger, guilt...
To say it's tearing me apart
Is a major understatement in the least
The gates of my torment have broken
All negativities unleashed
This is a loneliness
That has accumulated over the years
The burden of feeling in the wrong place&time
Is the burning of my fallen tears
Sinking into the deepest depths of despair
It's getting threateningly harder to live
I've given all, simply everything,
And i cannot find anything else to give
last winter, 2008
Take me to another place
where time does not exist
look me in the eyes...
speak the truth
don't tell me that was it
Stumbling, couldn't find my way
You lifted me out then you turned away
Tears did not bring you back...
I've always known they wouldn't
And to have you...I've always thought i couldn't
In perpetual darkness i lingered.
Once, you were my sun to the blackest clouds
Warmth that thawed the ice entombing my heart
You melted my pain away...
Sensuality replaced sorrow
Compassionate nights making easier
The hell of tomorrow
The spark, has it not faded to black?
Maybe there is no turning back.
Flickering then dying as soon as it was ignited
I fall back into nights arms...
I can no longer fight it
Take me to another place
Where time does not exist
Look me in the eyes...
Speak the truth
Do not tell me that was it.

How do you not see
The pure agony beneath her eyes
The truth is there, hidden under
The betrayal of your selfish lies
A heart bigger than you could imagine
Is locked up, sealed behind the thickest of walls
You couldnt know this; you never gave her a chance
You'd never say sorry, you have no balls.The only way to get to her
Is not over, but rather through
The chamber that has been created
As a product of having a relationship with any of you
And if you can ever knock them down
And you cause her any more harm
The trust that was there before will no longer be found in you
You dont seem to acknowledge
That youre the one who turns the knife inside her chest
You turn the other cheek as if nothing has happened
Now there are more of us who's acting is at its very best
She'll give you her all
Until you want it no more
She would stand in the freezing rain
In hopes that youll open your door
And even when you dont
She'll drop everything
Just to rush to your side
In your hour of need
She hates how she is
She wears her heart on her sleeve
But she will no longer fall so easily
For what shes led to believe
On a daily basis she is on the verge of tears
How has she deserved
All of the hurt she has endured
Through many, many years
The sanctity is gone
The bond is no where to be found
She holds all of this in around you all
Then collapse under heart wrenching sobs when noone is around
She'll pick herself back up
Because herself is all she has left
And that mask of indifference
Is once again in place and set
She'll want to let go
When her heart is completely torn
But more than anything she'll want to see you in the clarity
With which she thought she saw you before
Just live and let live
Forgive or forget
these simple words are another thing she has left
Simple it may sound
But its much more difficult than that
So she ends up getting walked on all the time
Like a forgotten door mat
The day will come
When she cant take it any longer
And she'll be out of your life
And if you should start to miss her friendship she tried to give to you
Just remember, you drove her away
And her love will remain one of the strongest,
Rare and true.
she walks a fine line
between confident and insecure
she balances her life
on the tip of a knife
and who to trust she cant be sure
mistakes and broken hearts
what has she left on her path
what is at the end of her trail
does she deserve any good in life
is karma real
and if this is true, what does it entail?
compassionate, forgiving,
dead while still living
she conceals her pain with laughter and reading
broken inside
tears are falling
why has she not yet fallen on this knife
without stalling
torturing herself on the inside and out
the thought of death is appealing-
this she cannot doubt
to never feel pain
to never feel lost
to never hurt another again
but in taking her own life, hurting others would be the cost
does she deserve to be happy
to be treated right
because she too has made wrongs
she doesnt any more know how to make them right
so she tears herself apart instead
it kills her every day
to realize the feelings that were there before
are ones that did not stay
a facade of confidence
thats never been there in her life
is something she must put forth
in an attempt to lessen the strife
but its always there
flipping and churning
the nauseating realization
that, for her, love wont be returning
heart is racing
pulse is speeding
thinking about
who im needing
walking with me through the darkness
winters kiss falls and lands
its just me and you
youre holding my hand
you have the most sensual touch
the snow is so silent
i turn to you
my soul is enlightened
you seem so imperfect
so beautifully unreal
only time ive ever felt this way
cant describe how i feel
shining from you
i see a beautiful dark light
like a black rose against snow
formed from the very breath of night
youre so perfectly wrong
so imperfectly right
attracted to your very existence
come, i want to succumb to your darkest light
april 6 2008-over a yr ago.
written for
joey farthing
forbidden feelings
an emotion so intense
so wanton, tearing me to pieces
yearning for that sensual touch
for that one person that made things okay
the one who made me forget all my troubles
should i deal with this
cant force it from my life
tomorrow is no promise
i do not want this feeling at all
unrequited, it serves no purpose
do you know the immense amount of love i have for you
disregarding any flaws
because some of those make me love you more
too much distance in between
that is whats wrong with us
is that not what you have seen?
you confuse the shit out of me
and all i do is come running back for more
for joey feb 2008
untitled three
A love denied. A love embraced. A love that died. After a pointless chase.
Did it die? Does it live? Was this pain, All you could give?
Does it still hurt you. Do you know that i grieve.
Heartbroken...i can't leave it be.
My heart has died. I must not be good enough.
Wish i could cry. Wheres the truth. Beneath it all.
Never deceived you. What was said is still meant to this day. It hurts...
But how can i walk away?
for joey, old. early 2008
