Rag-doll,
looking so fine
with a heart made of porcelain,
and a white lace dress.
You catch me falling,
but can you stitch up my mistakes,
and wash away my past?
Rag-doll,
looking so fine
with a chipped heart inside,
and a patchwork dress.
seeing your face through a fog,
i try to reach out and touch you,
thats when you fall to pieces.
trying to pick them up,
my grasp clumsy and weak,
figure out where we left off,
you are a cryptic puzzle.
a dramatic melody,
flood of emotions,
live streaming.
these games are tiresome,
vision becomes dislusional,
how can i stay sober?
searching, searching
in the mirror
in the bottles
in the nicotine
answers cant be discovered.
nothing makes sense ,
its devouring me,
strained...
drained...
suffocating.
deep under the ocean,
its waves viciously bite,
i struggle to come up.
will my last breath be of air?
or will my last br

The World Is Numb Around Me
my heart stiffens coldly
my body grows numb
fear and panic inflicted upon me
this sweet melody i hum
my scars bleed over time
why do these nightmares sing to me?
you're name is a plague to my mind
a pleasure to my tongue
a storm to my soul
a sickness to my lungs
let's not dance this sweet tango tonight
i cant take it
i want to dance this sweet tango tonight
my heart won't make it
let's not dance this sweet tango tonight
you'll just break it
i want to dance this sweet tango tonight.
i'm going to go back inside
and forget this night.
oh, she said, she said
while he looks in the mirror, shes looks in the mirror
he looks at his face, himself, himself
she looks beyond her face, for herself, to find herself
searching, searching
she says, she says
im looking, still looking
day after day
day after day.

i'm choking down glass after glass of moonspun tears poured directly from a cracked teapot.
i trace sea salt on my curves and ignore the aching in my bones. i promise, it's just an ache--it'll pass, i swear it.
lemon and lime paint my fingernails, and orange drops onto my chapped lips like rain. explain to me why colors become so beautiful after 2 am.
your heart swings from a chain around my neck. ghosts of your warmth grab my hands and toss me sky-high.
i'm fidgeting. i can't sit still.
i stumble up cloud-stairs and sink into rooftops, an echo of my former self.
so easily my walls erode now; emotion floods in and out like ocean tides.

i'll answer that for you...
you don't really get it, do you?
i am made out of uncertainties.
i am built from pillars of sand.
i breathe emotion in and promptly choke upon it.
i ask too much and never give enough.
i look at you and i tear up.
i hear your voice and my body cringes.
i am softspoken and withdrawn.
yet in your arms...
i fall into place, head over heart.
i sink into the embrace, fitting almost-just-right.
i breathe deep, filling my lungs with the familiar scent
and feel of you.
i've never been much for knowing what i want.
i do make promises that i cannot keep.
and i know it wasn't either of our faults;
we are victims of circumstance and time
When you were inside your mom's tummy,
your mom suffered the pain that you gave to her,
and you thanked her by kicking her all day long.
When you came into the world, she held you in her arms.
You thanked her by wailing like a banshee.
When you were 1 year old, she fed you and bathed you.
You thanked her by crying all night long.
When you were 2 years old, she taught you to walk.
You thanked her by running away when she called.
When you were 3 years old, she made all your meals with love.
You thanked her by tossing your plate on the floor.
When you were 4 years old, she gave you some crayons.
You thanked her by coloring
This is me, being awkward. 8D I dunno if you recall, but you have previously commented on my story It's Only L O V E, a yaoi featuring Tony and Erik. I have been avoiding it for a LONG time, but I finally went back to read parts of it and I decided that, if there is enough interest, I will continue to write it after the long hiatus. If you are indeed interested, please let me know. =] Thanks a lot!
