You're my annual dream,
Chewing holes through my
Thought bubbles, and Leaving
Princess Crowns around my forehead.
Laces made of [Delicate flower Petals]
And Crushed up dreams,
Are weaving themselves around my wrists and ankles,
(Binding them with lies.)
My kisses leave a trail,
Underneath your feet-
Hiding with the tip-toes you
Left, with your fingerprints in my hair.
My bones are climbing through
Infinity, And holding onto lust,
Wishing that it would
[Take them somewhere.
Take me somewhere.]
But instead it's lost
Underneath my words,
Being eaten by acid,
In my stomach.
And the stars are
Laughing at me;
Dieing at every wish I make,
Shattering to the ground
With my feet in the dust.
Photo Captions are Embedded in my thoughts,
Swinging on the edge,
And leaving hand prints in space.
Saturn's rings are wrapped around my fingers,
As I reach for everything in the night,
Hoping to find something in the dark,
[Only to be disappointed by
Your voice on the other side.]
These emotions fall,
Like the leaves in the autumn,
Drifting into an anchor
of Crisp Comatoses.
My heart feels like it's at the bottom
of a blender,
(Being mixed with the
Heartbeats and Blood spatters)
And turning into
Cyanide - Coated Happiness.
I want to find the sun,
Hiding in my ribcage.
I want to find the moon light,
Hiding in my hipbones,
And I want to find the reason,
That I'm still here.
Reading pages of Manuscripts off of
my fingertips,
Relaying words that have been stored inside my
Jawbones,
(Since the beginning of time,
Just for you.)
I want to scream lies,
Just as good as you did.
I want to paint pictures with lust,
Better than yours are.
But most of all,
I want to be perfect;
[Just like you.]
