The sea salt is choking my lungs
And the water is burning my eyes
It's like I've washed up
On the sad shore of love
Your name still on my tongue
The rolling waves pushed
Me closer to land
But farther from you
I struggle to breath, I'm drowning
But maybe I don't want to live
Why save me,
If I'm only gonna take my life anyway?

No Happy Endings...
She was his green-eyed galaxy girl
He was her whole world
With her stardust eyes and ivory skin
It's hard to imagine what went wrong within
She hid the scars and crystal meth
When he asked why she seemed so weak
She replied "It's from lack of sleep "
He began to see her less and less
And when he did she was fading
Pale face and sunken eyes
He tried his hardest not to cry
When he found that little plastic baggie
But he did cry with shaky sobs
When he found her on the floor
And held her in his arms
The ambulance arrived far to late
This is not a fairy tale
There are no happy endings
She did not awake despite his warm embrace
From that d

Messengers of Spring
The wind is the earths messenger
Who whispers in hushed tones
Promising new life
Each coming spring
The cherry trees are stubborn
Warriors in a delicate disguise
They keep their blooms
Through each late winter storm
The red breasted robins
Follow the melting snow
Their feathers are bright splashes
Against the pale snow
It was winter when you left me
And winter it will always stay
I don't know how I didn't see
The way you molded me like clay
I used to love the falling snowflakes
And the colorful twinkling lights
Now they just remind me of my mistakes
And all of our arguments and fights
Now the lights can't pierce my heart
And the carols fall on deaf ears
Your betrayal nearly apart
I still can't handle it after all these years
I'm not afraid of frostbite
And I don't worry about black ice
Memories of our last kiss by the twilight
Cloud my thoughts on this dark winter night
I don't know how I fell for your tricks
And empty promises, filled with lies
Now
I look in the mirror, filled with disappointment
I don't see the beauty that others describe
Instead I find tear stained cheeks and watery eyes
My hair looks dank and dull, my skin pale and pasty
Next I inspect my wrists, covered in 'tally marks'
So many scars, to many to count
I look at my bruised thighs, blooming with purple 'flowers'
I search the mirror, checking for lies
Yet I know it's true, I have none of the beauty they describe
The twinkling of broken glass is so innocent
Like an apologetic chime
For the pain to come
My heart is like shattered glass
And I always cut myself on the sharp edges
On thing leads to another
And soon I'm covered in scars
I'm shattered and sharp to the touch
And I'm attracted to broken things
'Cause they're similar to me
I will always love you
Even if you're just a memory
You left an imprint on my soul
And a scar on my heart
Your memory haunts me
Yet I can't let you go
There's a reminder of you
In every place I visit
I'm in love with a memory
That fills my dreams
It's hard to move forward
When I'm stuck in the past
