Lily Faust

lily is a wildflower.
she is hearty and strong
she blossoms in both peace and adversity
in manicured gardens and abused roadsides.
...

It's like a drug, that hug you hit me with everytime your arms move around my waist and your face touches mine.

I love when you hold me with your hand on my hip and my cheek on your lips, neither losing their grip.
...

A mouth never kissed.
A night never spent together.
A baby never made.
A house never built.
...

unwanted, cast aside
left to be swept along with the tide
the tide that takes with it all you care nothing about
...

Not allowed.
Not allowed to love you.
Not allowed to love you more.
Friends.
...

The human heart can so easily turn to stone;
When the trials we face, we choose to face them alone

My heart hardens toward the only comfort I may find
...

as you sang i stared up into your closed eyes
wondering about the man who laid behind them
the man whos soulful voice rose up from its haggard home
and soared accross the room to find rest in my hungry heart.
...

i look at you and when i do it breaks my heart.
it breaks for you, looking for something you cant have in the way you need it
and it breaks for me, seeing everything i want and need rights before me but unable to accept it
the blame for the break lays solely on myself.
...

love
is love that complete comfort you may find within another?
is it pure friendship, made so by much filtering over time?
is it found within the trust that an inocent girl places in a man she deams worthy?
...

i needed to cry
but i couldnt
i sat and let my thoughts attack me
i felt the hot tears boil up inside me
...

her red swollen eyes
are stinging with tears.
she cries because
of who she has become
...

She does not know what she wants.
Love is shifting allegiences all around her,
Like the rubbled stones beneath her feet.
Will she stand still and wait to slip away?
...
