Pretend Romances

-
Why don't you sit down so we can talk through the night? 
Let's sell stories; your turn for truth and my turn for lies.

Under this bed-sheet fortress, it's just me and you tonight.
They can't touch us, they can't hear us, baby have no fright.

Come here, wrap your thighs around me and say my name,
While I look into your eyes and tell you I feel the same.
 
Honey, I won't stay. There is no heart inside me for you to mend. 
Learn to look through the lies; you and I are romance I just Pretend.

    The romance you pretend is you giving back for what the world has taken from you.
    For romance is promised by many, but only lived up by a very few.

      This almost makes me feel sorry for the people who pretend. Should I be? Only time will tell I guess. Beautiful reply though. Appreciate it.

Innocence!

-
Tainted! That's the word I would use to describe my innocence. I remember that I was once young and naïve, before you walked in and destroyed my very being.    I must've been around the same age as your granddaughter, but that didn't stop you, no. Running your filthy hands all over me when you were supposed to teach me I remember feeling uneasy, but you dismissed it. It was all part of learning the art. Tell me, you sick pervert, how do you sleep at night?    I must've been a lot younger than you, but that didn't stop you, no. Cornering me on the last bench, trying to have your way with me. I remember feeling violated but you dismissed it. It was all part of feeling the high. Tell me, you sick pervert, how do you sleep at night?   I must've been around the same age as your sister, but that didn't stop you, no. Old enough for both of us to understand the meaning of the word "NO." I remember feeling disgusted with myself, but you dismi...

What I love about him....

-
This is inspired by the monologues at the beginning of the film "Marriage Story". I decided to keep a few lines the same, as they resonated with me, and let my imagination take care of the rest. What I love about him... he is articulate. He will have anyone hooked from the first five minutes of a conversation. He is very passionate about things that bring him joy, especially his craft. He works tirelessly and is dedicated towards chasing his dreams.   He is very self-sufficient—that man can cook himself dinner, sew a button, iron his shirt and clean up after himself. He never lets his jealously or insecurity get the best of him which I think I always do. He takes all of my moods steadily, he doesn't give into them or make me feel bad about them.   For someone who loves to stay only in his boxers, he's a great dresser and dancer. He never looks embarrassing, which is hard for a man. He is very composed. He loves being a host. He loves all the things you're ...

Black & White

-
Everyday is a battle ground. Sweat, tears and blood run me dry. Fighting something that only I can see. One moment everything falls calm and you think it's over but it never is, cause this battle I fight is with a black cat in the dark room. The silence in the room cannot subside the screeching screams inside my head. I keep begging them to stop but they only grow loud. The crowd in the room only makes me wanna run away, I cannot stand the eyes and noise that follow me places, it's the silence I crave just for a moment.  I close my eyes to touch the colours of the sky, the beauty is exemplary so the next second I paint it all black. It's the tendency of destroying things that make me happy that confines me.  Alone, I don't wanna be alone, just longing for a loving hug and a person to share myself with. The extended hand of comfort throws me off my guard, I push it away and run to my cave but I still can't find any peace.    I want this, no no I don...
