“Your essence, so pure. Even from across the room. I want to savor every last drop. Maybe you could heal the devil in me.”

I am laden with sorrow. But always hopeful of tomorrow.

It will never be like the way it always was.

Don’t you get it? I’d live and die for you. You have my heart locked in prison. And yet you are my greatest source of freedom.

Misery loves company, perhaps I’m misery myself, wishing for someone to sit beside me and distract me from myself.

The adult heart beats differently.

Quiet, that’s how I go when there’s a lot to say.

Rip out my heart. Dissect the atriums and valves. You’ll find nothing but love pouring out.

It’s not so much about seeing the light as it is feeling the light.

She dances with the darkness and becomes the shadow of the night.

And we find ourselves stuck somewhere between a daydream and reality.

I have a heart full of feelings. But a mouth devoid of words.

I am full to the brim with words. A message in a bottle lost at the sea. Yearning to reach the shore of poetry.

It’s strange where we find ourselves years after being in a completely different place.

It’s quite sad that some words never reach the person they were written for.

You are the color amidst the grey.

Run free little soul. You were never meant to be constrained.

I have God in my words and the devil in my ear, and a sister who keeps telling me to find my magic.

Wine is the first weapon that devils use in attacking the young.

Don’t want a complicated love. Just want you to grab my demons, kiss my madness and run away with me.

Keep doing some kind of work, that the devil may always find you employed.

Dance with me. Bring my demons to their knees.

Always be doing something worthwhile; then the devil will always find you busy.

Secrets of the past! Who does not wish to keep the past locked in a cage like a ferocious beast? The rich are sleepless for fear of thieves. The respectable have to guard their reputations in the same way.

Be ever engaged, so that whenever the devil calls he may find you occupied.
