vacancy

By Exodus




I let you touch me
Seep into me
There is nothing
That isn’t you.
I couldn’t remember
The last time
I was this happy.
But you proved me wrong.
So wrong.

-

I wear my heart on a string.
And I give it all everytime.
Its never enough.
Never enough to bleed for you.
Take your fall.
I was so wiling to crash and burn
And hold you in my arms.
But my love, trust and honesty
Scared you so quickly.
And you


always were the one to run.

    TOUCHE'.....IT SUCKS WHEN YOU GIVE 110% OF YOURSELF TO SOMEONE AND THEN BE TREATED LIKE A STRANGER.

    I hate it that people are so afraid or embarassed of their feelings. Nothing is ever enough, people never understand because they don't even know how they feel.

    Sometimes everything is too much... it seems many people are intrigued by the falsity of mystery and suspense more than they are by the idealism and beauty of truth... but don't lose yourself... beautiful the way you are. :)
