Everyday* I feel like breaking something
A misconception, a false perception
Arguments lasting hours and days
Egos clashing in all it’s ways
I try to keep quiet, I try to stay calm
Little do they know that silence is a balm
I try to leave with permission, as am taught
But that’s not possible because as usual
**I am always wrong

If,
I had the energy to fight ,to create a war,
had the strength to scream, and spit  venom
I would.
But
my body is to calm to let my fists clench,
and my mind is to settled for revenge, so
I Couldn’t.
Although
When your fingers unlatch their powerful grip  
I will embrace you sweetly,
I have too.

Say that we are enemies
Arch-eyed sharp means you ridicule.
You don’t get what our spit means to each other.
You mah frick; I you frack.
Yolo contendere, peace out bella pie.
Pushing on word boundaries, stretching them.

Thank you.
Thank you for helping me through every panic attack.
Thank you for holding me close when I started to shake,
for never walking away...
even when I told you to.
Even when I cried, "it would be easier for you"
You just told me that you didn't want easy,
and that you were here to stay.

Thank you for understanding that some days I just wanted to be left alone.
You always seemed to know that it would wear off and all I would want for hours on end would be to hold you close.
Thank you for understanding that even in my moments of blind rage,
you were never really the target of such hate.

You helped build me up, and stood by as I fought my demons.
Reminded me that they didn't make me any less of a wonderful person.
You will always be my safe harbor,
regardless how many miles I travel.
Thanks Zak.

Our obstacles are no burden,
They revolve around serious issues;
Baby, it is okay to cry,
Here are some tissues.

Every couple fights,
That is very true,
But I promise to be collected
Through and through.

Here are some tissues,
It is okay to cry,
Wipe your face
So your eyes will dry.

Lean on me now and forever,
Here is my shoulder,
Lean on it always,
While our love grows older.

How bold it is;
Cease it shall not,
For love is something
That cannot be taught.

It flourishes on its own;
Then it must be maintained.
However, it is the type
Of thing that could never fade.

Here are some tissues,
It is okay to cry,
Wipe your face,
So your eyes will dry.

A graze, a scratch, a cut,
These little things that hurt me much
The blaze in your eyes
Your aggressive voice
Hurt me ten times more

*Do you know what it does to me
Can you feel the way I cringe
When you speak I flinch
When you shout I fall
Turn your back and I crumble
I have never felt this miserable

The false gestures
The fake smiles
I can see them coming from a thousand miles
What you did - I never saw that coming
I can't say it wasn't disappointing
But it's not like you can hit reverse

You think you're right
Maybe you just wanted a fight
But you couldn't even listen
And my tears stay glistening
Rolling down my cheeks

Have you ever thought about
What you do to me
Where do you leave me
How can you get me
Who said the world was round
He was probably as high as the sun
too many years
of mutual grief suppressed
had left
   it seems
only a craving for 'revenge'
and for material security
    in her

and while he would have gladly
left her everything
he needed some things
for himself

and so they fought
