I never wipe my face when I cry

I let each salt water stream warm my cheek

Burn every tied connection between you and me

I let my tears pour over the bruised heartstrings

As if they were saline solution to a cut



I let my tears cleanse me of you

I let them blurry your image and memories we shared

Until I canā€™t recognize your false promises

I let my tears heat me like a furnaceĀ Ā 

When tonightā€™s loneliness is too cold to bare

With these tears I can stop empty dreaming

And give you back all of your unkept ā€œforeverā€™sā€

So tomorrowā€™s happiness is rewarding

Like a fresh bloom after aprils showers


I will never wipe away my tears..

And I will heal with no bandage

Because she would rather hurt

Than be hurting..

We never made sense
I should've listened to myself
It's crazy how you left me, for me
And not for someone else

I'd be lying if I said
This isn't hurting me
I'm a sucker for telling you
This is hurting me

I can't tell the difference anymore
Admitting a problem
Is that my solution
Or is this my problem

Numbing the pain
Doesn't make it ok
I'm gonna get you back
And still won't be ok

Trying to keep my wrist closed
So I don't **** me
And you're unphased by my pain
And that's what kills me
First thing I wrote after I got my heartbroken

Baby won't stay
Body not a home
Doc looks for heartbeat
But baby's long gone
TheLonely Dec 2017
Cry myself to sleep
You aren't here anymore
Loneliness sinks
And strikes me right to the core

Our love was forbidden
And the world kept us apart
But Iā€™ll forever keep your secrets
On every page of my heart

Hate that you came home too late
And yes I waited too long
So now I stare at  old text
And replay your voice like a song

My razor is so powerful

Always fixing me when I'm broke

From cuttingĀ Ā lines in my arm

To cutting lines of coke



My razor is my weapon

Only used to defeat myself

And I can't tell if my tool is good or bad

Since I'm not hurting/"fixing" anyone else
