Sometimes the veil is lifted
This is when I see who we really are
You have become the hero
The one I always knew you would be
You are half of a broken star
The piece of me that is missing
That is what you are

Poetry About Love
Promises
You promised me the words
That I wanted to hear
Then you told me the truth
All the lies that you spoke
That I started to fall for
Pushed me right out that door
Nyx
Another place and time
Today I rise with hope
Hoping things will stay this way
Hoping that this time
I will have a hand to hold
There is so much more to me
Then one story to be told
There are many layers
Many scars beneath my skin
If you want to know who I am
The story starts within
I am shaped from betrayal
Pain and many lies
Shaped by those who have come and gone
With no need for goodbyes
If you look at me
I will show you what lies beneath
But only if you take my hand
And wander with me today
Only if you take my hand
And accept me as I am
Broken but still breathing
Mended here and there
I have dreams that keep me going
When it hurts I take myself there
To another place and time
That exists inside my mind
Come with me and you will see
All that is left of me
Nyx
A place for us
Deep within my soul
I know there are pieces left
Parts that will one day make me whole
Someday you will see
That there is so much more to me
Then the girl who walked away
There is so much more to me
Than just one story to be told
One day when I walk the earth
There will be others behind me
I will show them the way
I will show them where there is land
A place for all of us
It exists inside my heart
It is the home of the forgotten
The ones who were once lost
The ones that thought they were dammed
All they needed was compassion
I give to all of you my hand
With all my love,
Nyx
You watched me fade away
I reach for your hand
But you let it go
You watched me fall
You watched me fade away
I would have lived if you had stayed
But I did not matter enough
Disclaimer
When I speak of death it is often a representation of an end. I do not want this to be misinterpreted because I know I have friends on here who care. I appreciate all of you.
Peace and love,

Perfection
She strives for perfection
In everything she does
The image she portrays
Hides everything inside
A life she should have lived
Love she was denied
Through this rejection
She never found herself
So she will continue
Wandering here and there
Still striving for perfection
Longing for someone to care
Nyx
As I walk through the storm
He made me cry
Before I said goodbye
There is no perfect mix
No one who can see
Who I really am
Who I strive to be
I exist and yet I do not
All my life I have fought
To find the balance that I need
In order to push myself
I need to believe
That someday I will find
The one thing that I need
Someone beside me
As I walk through the storm
Arms to embrace me
When I need it the most
I will find you
This I know is true
I will not stop
Until I do
Nyx
A heart of stone
My heart has hardened
Like a ball of stone
It sits inside my chest
As it beats it cracks and crumbles
A little more each day
This is what I need
A heart covered in stone
I need to find myself
Before I can go home
Nyx
Within moments
Life is not a straight path
Within moments everything can change
Within a conversation
Within a glance
Within the choice to speak or remain silent
Your path will follow those actions
Without your control
You have to accept it
We have to see
That every decision we make
Leads us to our destiny
Nyx
What is Love
Love is something
I do not know
Does it linger
Does it grow
Is it fleeting
Or does it remain
Is it only there
When someone has something to gain
I do not understand this emotion
All I feel is pain
Nyx
