A Brighter Green-
The sunlight is warming your smile
In a way I never could
Your eyes have turned a brighter green
In hopes of never having to see me
And those eyes shall burn if they are set upon me
Like the sun is set upon the Earth
And I'd cry away every last drop of tears in my body
If you were to leave.

Forgotten-
My head is conscious of my thoughts of doubting
what you've shown me
My angriness should be visible to your awakened eyes
But, once again, you're unaware of my insufferable pain
And if one day I'm not feeling like myself
I'll throw myself in circles and scream my name
In case you've forgotten what it sounds like
I tend to be curious of what it would feel like
to drown in your heart
I know I'll eventually sink to the pit of your stomach
But, once again, you're unaware of my fortune telling
And if one day I'm not feeling like myself
I'll throw myself in circles and scream my name
In case you've forgotten what it sounds like.

I Will-
I will scream and I will be me
I won't be fake and I will not leave.

Crazy Things-
This will be the last time that I let you look in my eyes
For you may see some crazy things
You've never known this side of me
But you'll try anything once
But you'll never hide in the darkness with me
You will never let me be happy
Because when there's you, there's unhappiness.

The Sun's Rise-
With my lies I thrust you,
And with my heart I trust you.
And with the sun's rise,
Pain is brought to my side.

Birthday Poem For Azra-
You smile with the brightness of your eyes
And care with all your heart
But one more year has rolled around
And I'm afraid you won't be who you are
So far you've been the friend I've always known
Please stay the angel you've always been
And continue to smile with that brightness.

To Witness My Blindness-
I break you into pieces
As I madly search for my soul.
To witness my blindness
Would be to kill everything that's ever blossomed
in your heart,
And wilt every flower you've held and looked at
longingly.
