Running in circles playing the never-ending blame game

The victim or the villain

Why me?

Self-loathing and denial

Deceptions and betrayals

Broke all ethics

Lost to myself

I give up

Hold my hands up in surrender

Hang me at the altar of your witch-hunt

Coward, bully, lover, foe

We were never really friends

My bloody hands and broken back

Laying down the weight of your anger

Push me down the stairs of your tower

Throw the lies out the window

Barren hearth, haunted house

Don't you dare bring her home

Parlour tricks and expensive gifts

Fooled me twice with those eyes

Kingdom of ghosts haunt me now

Wicked wishes unholy thoughts

May you live long, may you thrive

You know how things could have been worse

Always on my mind never gone

Best intentions etched on my tomb

Gather my bones and write a song

Someday perhaps you'll grow a spine

Come to me then when you're not afraid

Till then my love, go to hell.

Broke a mug today Wiping away the spilled milk Picking up the broken chinks of china Kindness and kinship comes from unexpected places Perhaps they were always there But in my blindspot Always in my blindspot How do we keep missing all that is present right under our noses Hurting the ones closest to us Regrets don't ever stop Do we ever learn?

You taught me that love didn't have to be served with a side of anxiety and for that I'm eternally grateful. I learnt it the hard way that love need not be a precursor of pain. It can be healing, calming and nourishing for your soul. It can be a respite for your over overwrought neurons. A place of solace and a resting haven for all your worries.  Thank you for showing me a love that one can rely on and be sure of. Without question or doubt. I am glad this kind of love exists even in these fickle times. #reverie

  It's positively bizarre how fast someone can take over so much of your being. Remember when Coldplay had sung, "Nobody said it was easy, noone ever said it'd be so hard"? Well, they had obviously lied. 'cause it is that easy. Like nothing ever in my life has felt this easy before than being with you.   Sometimes, it scares me - the fear of loss, the what-ifs that come pouring in. But then I remind myself it feels so delicately precious because of how remarkably beautiful it is. I try to look back on times when I've heard them say to live in the moments and be grateful for whatever wonderful we get to be a part of. After all we are but a fragment of this vast universe. I marvel at how lucky one has to be to experience the wholeness of the universe in these brief moments which seem to last forever yet never long enough when we're together. What a conundrum!  They wrote poems about drowning in someone's eyes but haven't they felt the urge to stay af
