[enter explanation here]

Dear [enter name here]
What I've been trying to tell you
Is when I put down my backpack
At the end of the day
You slip into my thoughts
Like the badass you believe you are
And I can't get you out
Even in sleep
Cuz you've made a fool of my brain
By haunting my dreams
But I'm not as defensive
As I've needed to be
I'll reach for a gun (my weapon of choice)
But you've infiltrated my feelings
And I don't want to regret 
Pulling the trigger in front of your head
Sweetie, come on
I want my thought process back
If so-and-so is going to a party
I go because of them
And it's all from a long while back
When you decided to slip in
So please leave me alone
To wallow in my wreck
You're not the answer to my issues
You're the reason I'm depressed
I'll have a great dream
Where all my dreams came true
Before I wake up and remember
It was only you
Pushing me to my breaking point
Bending ideals
So I give up on the possibilities
Give up on love 
So I'm asking you to leave
Because I'm really sick of yelling 
But leave a note on my door
So I'll know where you're heading

oil and water

I am deprived
They are alive
Singing about love is exhausting
When you don't have any
Because the notes on the guitar
Flow together so easily
While my thoughts blend just
As well as oil and water
They talk about their crushes
Oh joy, oh joy
Mine were nothing but confusion
I looked forward to see him
And him
Then him
But in the end
He never came anyway
He didn't care
And him---
Let's just say none worked out
But made pretty good poems
Yeah, she says
I don't need no man
But it kind of seems like I do
And I sympathize with you
Because of all the people
I know somewhat well
You just seem like the one
Who would understand
The feeling that everyone else has a plan
While you're sailing through life
Not knowing how to deal
With the feelings you're given
And the lies bombarding you
Because here and now it takes someone
To make you feel worthy

So I'm falling to the earth
Feeling so worldly



the dying flower

A single button
Falls off her coat

A lone raindrop
Hits salty road

She slips on the ice
No one around

But the words she wrote
Were hopelessly profound
