A Happily Ever After

Blessed by the Gods themselves
Two from the heaven
A mortal so ordinary
And an angel
Fallen from her grace
Salvation not in their virtues
Savaged by their faults
Preying on the fallen and weak
Ravaging them in their wake
Forgetting and forgiving
For the peace of mind
As they were undeserving
Forever in a bind
Unknowing and ignorant
Of the reality around
Recognizing and arrogant
Forever suffering
Blessed by the Gods themselves
They never found their souls

Eternal Sunshine
reeks oh the weariness
ephemeral darkness
leaps so young
golden keys
stains sorry princess
Under for
Stairs, you
Nimbus sung
Beyond
aloft waves wrung
scream into the abyss

So many instances
I fight the urge
I bite my tongue, my
lips, the words that
threaten to
spill out if I’m not too
careful, if I’m not
paying
attention.
I love you, I say.
I mean come here.
My heart beat quickens,
pulse erratic.
I love you, I say.
I mean don’t go.
I love you, I say.
I mean, please be different.
I love you, I say.
I mean, I need you to
tell me again the
words you whispered so
that I am not convinced it’s
in my head.
I love you, I say
never out loud.
Each draft my heart writes I will
toss
in the garbage because the
next time I say I
love you,
I don't want to mean I
hope you don't go.
The next time I say I
love you,
I want to mean it.

- i never say what i mean
