All these golden lights are nothing but firefly glow.


And I can see your heart sway in lace embroidered morphine.
The slow burning monotony is sifting through your glazed eyes,
And I’m wondering why they call this love.

And my dull irises recognize your hand interlocked with hers.
(they say the world is meant to stop turning);
But instead mine started burning.

Orisons are starting to sound like ballads
And passing bells are ringing like the faint calls of dawn.
The mornings rejuvenation is fading into a soft reiterate of repetition.

You stumble to my corroded door and knock twice.
I can see the day after intoxication slowly blur your lips in patterns of incoherent intentions.
Your clothes are stained and your breath is tarnished with 12 hour vodka.

And I can’t do this anymore.
But I’m not sure how I can survive without these early sunshine visits.
So I’m stuck in-between words and emotions.

And your barely strung together syllables induce such internal hatred.
But never does this malice make it’s way obverted.
“H-eey babyyy…
      How are youu?”
…it always starts the same.

I feel so sedated; drowsy and disorientated.
I feel an odd shade of sallow sepia.
I feel small and insignificant.
I feel ..
I feel like…
  I feel kinda like a broken heart.

    This happened to me bout a year and a half ago and I don't think I've properly got over it, it's horrible that someone can treat you like that.

    I really like your style. This is dirty, tacky and tongue-in-cheek.

    "And your barely strung together syllables induce such internal hatred.

    “H-eey babyyy…
    How are youu?” "

    I like the way you've typed the words as though they're being slurred or drawled.

    Favourited.

    (I never want to let you down or have you go, it's better off this way)

    This one was beautiful. It flowed like a waterfall...and the fall was devastatingly gorgeous. My heart felt the breaking from your words.

    Your words just rage with anger, but then when that anger is stripped away I can feel the true sadness of the speaker.

    this is perfect!
