fix me

By Exodus

We’ll dance down for death
And the stars will all be the same
x broken in iridescent light x

-translate the silence of our eyes, the celestial meaning-

We’ll run away, ashamed.
Declare this love
And tear it away.
My heart will never be enough
To break for you.

If god can’t hear me screaming.


I’ve lost everything.



Break down into the reminiscent
Glory of my perfection
I’ll be okay with this.
If its apart of you.


I wont try to change you.


Dare to chance it.
I already have.

Don’t be afraid to touch me.
Though I’m deep in the shallow waters
Of a fragile winters grasp.

x the glass beneath your feet x

we’ll break and bleed.

    "If god can't hear me screaming, I've lost everything" That really got me, because I often wonder if He's listening. I agree with the fact that you can't change that which you love, even if the sentiment isn't returned. love and pain go together

    "I'll be okay with this/ If it's apart of you"... your open-minded wisdom is beautiful. I also like the watery/wintery/glassy theme of the end... it's very representative of the subject matter. You make me want to start writing again :)

    Though I’m deep in the shallow waters- that spoke a few different meanings to me.. Lovely. :::OLd
