my RED RED RED ____

Every fault I find
are mine
I found them in you
buried deep
beneath all the good
that you keep
when I see them in you
I prod them
I stick them to you
and you will never be free
but every sin I latch to you
I latch to me


Was I born to break them down?
Or is my heart exactly where it should be?

p.s. I have given up on proper poetry. I no longer feel the need to fit my feelings into guidelines that only govern but do not enhance.

Oh please.

Turns out you weren't made of stones.
Every moment that I thought you were there,
you were somewhere else.
I'll never forget what you did for this family,
nor will I forget what you did to it.
You have shattered my world and now I must look
to someone else for strength.
God, You must be everything. Immortals can't bleed.
Stand strong where I could not. Please stand strong.
