Masking Pain

She hurt herself so that she could feel something else other than her heart breaking.  She thought any pain was better than the hole that was in her chest.  Separating to halves of her soul. She didn't want to break anymore.  So she cut her wrist and yelled in agony, finally something to mask her pain.  Ironic isn't it, while others cut just to feel something she did it so that she couldn't feel anymore....

Daddy Issues

Oh how I've waited  Every night as a little girl I crawled up in a corner with my head in my knees and my heart in my stomach  I held the phone in my hand for hours expecting to hear from you  Oh how I've waited I've waited by the window watching every plane fly by I was young  and naive but watching fathers and their little girls made me cry And Every night I thought maybe he's in that one So I waited by the door  Falling asleep, never...

Masterpiece

She is beautiful,  standing in front of the mirror looking at herself  dissatisfied with what she sees, but I see perfection.  The way her hair flows covering her face self consciously, she doesn't know how beautiful she is, but she radiates light through her smile.  The way her body curves like a winding road to my heart,  A body that I can hold and squeeze to bring me down to earth to remind me that I'm alive.  Her beauty was the kind of beauty  that...

A Dying Love Story

She held him softly in a waltz pose  and whispered do you remember our first dance? Flashes of their wedding day appeared in their minds,  but she remembered their actual first dance  in the rain he stopped the car to dance with her  simply because she had requested it. She then said I wish we can go back there. Not because he had failed her but  because she had failed him,  or maybe somewhere down their life together  they had failed...
