Star*crossed lovers(they always die)

By BeautifullyRuined

You said without me you would die
cant you take the hint
when the legs that used to hold you
inside of me
are almost running in their effort
to put some distance
between us

U/and/I
have seperated
turning into
starcrossed*lovers with the
milkyway between u)(s
And it is an unfortunate coincidence
that I have forgotten how to swim

we bring to the stargazers mind
The Titanic
because i promised you i`d never let go
and of course I did
but they`re foolish romantics
and just dont realize
in the end we all let_go

I cant help the fact
your expectations
were set a little to HiGh
and i never could quite grasp
the reason you pushed >me
so hard
to be more
you never realized
there was no more
I had no hidden facets

you tried to peel away the outside
to get to the beauty within
the only beauty within me
is a heart
that is as shriveled as a dead rose
and my morbid fascination with death
just confused you

I was getting so tired
of holding hands
when the only thing i thought
was how good it would feel
if your hands
could squeeze my throat
and set me ~free~
I would kill myself
but then i`d never get my >wings
