with eyes wide shut
slits through eyelashes
these butterfly kisses
and i can feel your arms
draped around me like a storm
we’re coming down real hard.
all surrounded
there’s no turning back this time
face these faces
don’t hold your breath
i won’t take another silence
from your heart.
i can’t be your soul and breath forever
you are an empty space
where a presence used to linger.
and i am gone.
because pushing me away is
why your senses were made
darkness swarms
rugged edges of our love
hidden under curtains of trust
blurry thoughts, can’t stay awake
hiding so we’ll find the
mistakes
mistakes, heartbreaks, outtakes
you’re breaking me
mistakes, heartaches, outtakes
this heart will break if you misplace the pieces i told you keep safe
i can’t be your soul and breath forever
you are an empty space
where a presence used to linger.
and i am gone.
because pushing me away is
what your senses were made for.
sprinkle or sparkle, baby it's all the same.

Ooooh, love and hate (I think) The "mistakes, heartbreaks, outtakes" part was very unique, and the best part for me. One thing though, capitalize those "I's" to make the overall look seem better. Other than that, I liked all the raw emotion the person in the poem had, really nitty-gritty stuff!!
