I'll always have myself
What is it that draws the breath out of my lungs so violently when I think about you? As if I stepped out into a freezing wind naked and wet. The sharp initial inhale of breath catching in my throat and the sting of cold piercing through my skin like knives is the only sensation I can compare to how I felt when you walked in unexpectedly.

Pillow Talk
"Do you still believe in love?" His eyes left mine and he shifted onto his back to stare at the ceiling. His eyebrows came together as he thought, causing a deep cavernous wrinkle of contemplation.

Never Again.
Too many times I've found myself wishing on a star for things to be different. I've dropped penny after penny into my fountain of hope mermering silent prayers to the forces at be for things to change.

You Found Someone Else
While I was trying to heal, and love myself you found someone else. While I was alone and crying on my floor begging things to go back to the way they were before, you found someone else.

Don't Call Me
I needed more than what you were willing to give me. I don't know how you know to call me on a bad day, but the phone rings and your name pops up on the screen. I stare and watch it until it disappears. I'd like to say I have enough self-restraint to not call you back, but my heart strings still pull tightly at the thought of wondering what you are calling me for.

Pain We Share
It was with surprise that I looked into your eyes and saw the same pain swimming beneath the blue-green clarity. The same pain that I feel vibrates from my heart out through my veins. The same pain I feel slithering it's way through every vulnerable crack of my broken mind.

A Ticking Time-Box
"Tick, tick, tick." 4pm, 4:05pm, 4:07pm. I shake my head to clear the fogginess from my vision. Stop looking at the clock, it doesn't make the time go by any faster.

How I Met the Devil
Part 2: Satan smells good. I saw him again today. From across the way, a whole room between us but we still locked eyes. As soon as we did I averted my gaze. My cheeks flushing with being caught glancing his way.

Men of the Hour
Part 1: Another glass of champagne, good sir. He wasn't supposed to be here. My mind unravels as I see him. In his tux. Alone, at the bar. He's probably ordering a bourbon on the rocks.

How I Fell For You
You walked in with sunglasses on, and I smiled from across the room. My eyes lighting up beneath the dark shades of my RayBans.

Divine
She was called evil. The way she looked into your soul, and snatched the breath from your throat. She was called cunning.

Bad Days
My mind feels like an ocean. Vast and deep and mysterious. With constant waves beating onto the shore. Some days calm and some days violent. Water swirling and swelling and pounding against itself. Swallowing everything in sight. Dragging any lost soul down, down, down into its' murky depths.
