Hold


 If you want to weep, then do it with your whole heart.

Empty yourself, so then when someone asks if you're done you can say "Yes, I've nothing left in me". 

And then let them hold you.

Calm down


 When you tell me to calm down, know that my heart is bleeding like it's been stabbed. My breathing is erratic because I've been running and running and my mind is a mess, because I've been trying to find my way through this maze. So, when you say calm down, this body has already reacted, this mind has over thought and my soul is looking to escape and no matter what you say, calmness will not come.

Garden


I will never wait for flowers from you. 

Why should I, when I have my garden in bloom?

Scent


 I lie in your perfume, the scent that is you.

Dark, deep and mysterious. 

But this fragrance smells different on you,

Yet I inhale it and drink it in. 

Awakening my senses. 

Remembering when I tasted it on you.

Floating


 Floating in the sky

Cotton clouds in my toes

A giggle

A memory

And nobody knows.

Folly

 I just don't believe in a forever love anymore.

I don't believe in faithfulness. 

I don't think you can be made for one person forever and that person will stay and love you. 

Yes, life does that to you. 

It shows you human folly.

The foolishness, the lack of empathy and emotion.

You

 I see the Moon before you do, and I can tell you it's beautiful tonight, but not as beautiful as you.

Mine

These words that I pen are not about you.
