My Best Friend's Wedding

The different pieces blend together

However opposite they may be

It was as natural as blinking

The love that grew in between

Time passes by

We smile without a reason

It’s enough to satisfy

The driest of the seasons

Our earth will shake and tremble

And mountains will eventually fall

On that day we will assemble

It will not be our downfall

For this love can gather us

This love makes us whole

It lives in our hearts

It fills us with joy

Our rainbow covered hearts

Illuminate our souls

Let us sleep soundly because we know

This love will never let us go

The House

There is a house waiting in the fields

Where we shed all our tears

Now our eyes will cry no more

And all seeds refuse to grow

It cannot be kept at bay

The walls are dripping with gray

From all the pain it’s been keeping

The place in which my love was weeping

I searched for years in every room

Finding only something doomed

There was never something born

The house is all that’s left to mourn 

The Wait

Our lives were always meant for change

We only make believe it’s exactly the same

The never-ending cycle of standing still

Driving the madness back to the rear

The owl watches our leaves fall

A witness to an unfilled life

Born in the midst of whispers and deceit

Waiting until everything stops

I could feel the pain again

My old familiar fate

Pounding away beneath my breasts

Making its way through my chest

I felt it in my heart

The day had finally come

I would want nothing else

I would need nothing more

Dolls

It's a rare thing to behold
A connection richer than gold
The serenity that follows
When souls are no longer hollow

Some mouths may sour
Worry not for your mate
Even in the darkest hour
None will be unmade

Eternity is your treasure
Forever together
Through bonds unbroken
And words unspoken

My beautiful suffering

The days get more difficult

Time seems endless to those who wait

It keeps taking our innocence

There is no comfort in this constant pace

It’s not fair to those we involve

So there are rules I will not defy

But there is no paucity in my resolve

Just constraining rules I must abide by

I wish I could just flee

An escape is hard to come by

So I’m still waiting for you to find me

Hoping to say my last goodbye

Through the Shadows

How can you see truth

With them surrounding you?

It’s so unclear

Our words are drawn

And it all just happens in the dark

Gaps are running deep

We keep them out of reach

I feel you near

It makes me stop

And it all just happens in the dark

Seeing it unfold

Wondering what it’s for

The thought of you

It burns me up

And it all just happens in the dark

The rules are getting clear

There is no need to fear

Wait and see

Who you’ll become

And it all just happens in the dark

The first sign

I remember how much you tried

It was hard for you to stay

You didn’t tell me why

You couldn’t even look me in the eye

I didn’t see it at first

I didn’t want to

Once I figured it out

My shame washed away

It wasn’t my doing

I was the betrayed

As you say it everything makes sense

Your lips are heavy with regret

Your eyes fill me with forgiveness

And a teary smile spreads across my face

I realize as I feel my heart thumping

That I’m still looking forward to something
