truth will hurt you free

these words are stuck in my teeth
rotting seeds that make my voice stink
still i speak and i speak unsupervised
for nothing at all is ever a surprise
the obsessive mastication is all that is left
to ruminate, regurgitate, redecorate
the house of cards that stands
through storms and plagues alike
the decaying embellishments linger
swaying like scarecrows in barren fields
waiting for someone to come back home
words that wait for vacant mouths

Shadowed Hearts

What are you thinking love?
What secrets are there in your head?
I don't really want to know the details
I just want to know if there are any

Every little lie you tell
Pushes me closer to hell
I am afraid of the darkness you know
It's somewhere I don't want to go

Why does love have to be so messed up
Why can't we love simply, just love
Why all these strings and attachments
Why do I have to know your friends?

I only wanted to love you
No one else but only you
How difficult is that?
Is this what we had asked for?
