moths are drawn to candles

because of their soft, glowing light

they make their way towards the warmth

with shaky, stumbling flight

​

but just before they touch

the dancing flames of gold

a chilling wind sweeps around

and their souls are once more cold.

poet's note: I wrote this last night because my friend and I are going thru some things together, not between us but we kind of feel the same, so it's kind of dedicated to her. and I know what it sounds like but don't worry, I'm not su*cidal (do I need to censor it? not sure), it just gives my feelings like all poems

so so tired

I'm done with all this shit

so so angry

I'm done taking all these hits
/

facades are getting harder

I'm tired to the bone

I wanna go back to my house

but I dont have a home
/

I need to find that someone

the person that resides in my heart

but it's kinda difficult

when I'm about to fall apart
/

I want to close my eyes

i wa

heart of frost, all hopes lost

kinda wished our paths would cross but no

you left me in the cold

hung me up to dry then got scrapped and sold

no matter all the plays I rolled

I think we both knew in the end I'd fold

so I'll put my cards down, you called my bluff

I'll turn around, I knew I wasnt enough

I'll walk out the door, and I won't look back

my heart's not on the floor, I don't give a crap

the ante's too high, I can't reach the bar

so I'll say goodbye - didn't really get far
