I meet your eye
And I might cry
"Even now, after everything?"
I thought we were fine
I was yours and you were mine
What happened to you
What happened to me
What underlying problems
Could I not see
Where are you going
What'd I do wrong
Our time was great
Even if it wasn't long
So please don't go
You know that I love you so

TW: Abandonment

NOTE: Prompts by @letsescapril on Instagram

​You're everything I always wanted
Or so I thought
I never stopped to consider
What you'd be and what you'd not
Signed myself up for this
Without knowing how it'd end
So it's time to get a move on
Thanks for being my friend
I guess
Goodbye
Goodbye
Thanks for everything you said
The times that you fucked up
The times I fucked with your head
Goodbye
Goodbye
Our time together was pretty sweet

What can I say?
We were just too different
There was always a sense of dissonance
I loved art
He was logical
I had a heart
He was an ass
Opposites attract they say
Bullshit.
Compliments attract
We didn't compliment each other once
We weren't harsh and soft
We weren't loud and quiet
We were both too aggressive
He was too possessive
I was too carefree
There was always extreme dissonance
Between him and me
We both liked to yell
And we both liked to fight
We disagreed on everything
Except the way we solved our conflicts
There was a dissonance there from the start
No perfect match
​No sense of harmony

Ink stains her hands
Everyday
She wakes
She creates
She builds worlds in her mind
Worlds forever trapped in time
What kind of power is that?
To create
From nothing more but
A piece of parchment
A bit of ink
And an idea
Ink stains her hands
But she doesn't mind
​She's creating

TW: Death, Implied Suicide

Her hand on mine
Her face in mind
Her smile that shines
There's nothing more beautiful
Her gentle touch
Her voice that I love so much
The way that I make her blush
There's nothing more beautiful
But her old weary scars
The look in her eyes so far
I love her for it
There's nothing more beautiful
She carries marks
Of a time so dark
But it makes her her
So there's nothing more beautiful
But the note she gave
Standing beside her grave
Knowing I couldn't save
​She was so beautiful

TW: PTSD, Flashbacks

He wore his hair in that cut
He used to scowl when he got in a rut
A flailed hand for balance
Or for malice
I'm tryna be protected
He's tryna be respected
How could you expect me
To not see red flags
Everywhere I go
Don't you know
When a door slams my world fades away
When somebody yells my consciousness sways
They're unrelated, that's what they say
I guess it's pareidolia
But what can you do
When every brush every skim
Just reminds me of him
Red flags
Bad patterns
Everywhere I can see
Let it go
​How can you expect that of me?

NOTE: Prompts by @letsescapril on Instagram

Here we are
Never even though that we'd get this far
How long ago was it
That the thought of your eyes on mine
Made me blush
It feels like such a rush
But here we are
You're standing taller than I've ever seen you
With a smile on your face it's blinding
The future is unwinding
Crossroads
Going off roads
Take my hand darling
​I'll meet you at the crossroad

TW: Death

Tick tock
Tick tock
Watching the hands run
On the clock
Turning endlessly
Counting restlessly
Timing the end of our days
Tick tock
Tick tock
Watching them fall
Under the clock
Bodies are strewn about
Watching our time run out
It is the end of our days

What's this
What's that
I thought I was alone here
What's this
What's that
Is it what I fear
I thought I was alone
I thought that I was safe
But I can see it coming
In the distance, a small shape
Getting closer, closer
As I watch idly by
I tried to run away
I tell you I did try
But they keep on coming
They keep on getting close
I'll run for my life
But they're more persistent than most
In the distance a small shape
The army
The crowds
Keeping up their chase
Coming after me
Run away
