    The tender glow of sunlight broke through the city air
    Massaging tired shoulders, wounding with its glare
    Words dealt by a stranger, given with a gentle heart
    Not knowing that they struck the mind like a target by a dart.

    Wait three days to call, or else you’ll break the rules.
    Never admit that you’re intrigued; honesty’s for fools.
    Want to tell her you’re in love? Don’t be silly, it’s too quick
    Don’t you know that love’s a game; a complex riddle, practiced trick?

    He had hair a shade of auburn that looked like fire in the sun
    Blue eyes as cold as ice; a single stare enough to stun.
    My blood surged with every touch, skin blushing with burning heat
    Now this empty bed feels frigid; unignited, incomplete.

  • Carly commented on the post, soap 1 week, 1 day ago

    Blood disappears with soap and water, gone without a trace
    Tears wiped away in seconds to leave a clean, unblemished face
    Every bruise you left healed over, every scar that grazed my skin
    But there’s one wound that’s still open; I’m still bleeding from within.

    Just one thought, and my heart’s still beating fast
    One single memory of a person from the past.

  • Carly commented on the post, simplify 1 week, 3 days ago

    Read between the lines; play charades, learn the game
    Complicating what is simple, turning honesty to shame.

    Her head fit perfectly between his neck and his shoulder
    Maybe mornings wouldn’t be so bad if only he could hold her.

  • Carly commented on the post, rating 2 weeks, 1 day ago

    I will never be the kind that draws your eyes in the street
    Never the kind of girl whose mere stare feels like heat
    Who manages to enchant you even when she’s fast asleep
    Steals your heart in seconds; now it’s hers to keep.

  • Carly posted an update 2 weeks, 2 days ago

    I beg you to be brave, when your hand itches for the phone
    Don’t go running back because you hate waking up alone.

  • Carly commented on the post, enemies 2 weeks, 5 days ago

    Your lips tasted like coffee; I preferred tea.
    I still catch myself kissing the way you taught me.

  • Carly commented on the post, crow 2 weeks, 5 days ago

    Shamed for their color, but when it comes down to flight
    Crows and doves fly the same; and only one comes in white.

  • Carly commented on the post, clasp 3 weeks ago

    I had your heart in my care, swore to keep it protected
    From the slightest of threats, it’d remain uninfected.
    Promised you’d never be broken, but would always stay whole
    Until I held you so tightly I shattered your soul.

  • Carly posted an update 3 weeks, 3 days ago

    I lay spread out across the grass, cloudless sky above
    Writing letters in my head to those I used to love.

  • Carly commented on the post, planter 3 weeks, 3 days ago

    The seed planted itself in the depths of my mind
    Feeding on my sanity, leaving madness behind
    Tendrils snake down my limbs like steel chains
    You’ve cultivated a poison, a virus in my veins.

  • Carly commented on the post, checkmate 3 weeks, 4 days ago

    The day engages me enough to fight the thoughts I know are true:
    The affections, the desires that my heart still has for you
    But the distractions of the world last me only through the light
    Alone in the quiet, I am conquered by the night.

  • Carly commented on the post, café 3 weeks, 4 days ago

    You always hear stories about falling in love at first sight
    A fateful morning in a cafe; one glance and it felt right.
    I’m not the type to draw intrigue; looks as generic as can be
    And yet somehow he fell in love with one as plain as me.

  • Carly posted an update 4 weeks, 1 day ago

    My temptations began to vanish; patience finally wearing thin
    Now I find I’m giving up as suddenly as I gave in.

  • Carly commented on the post, mumbling 1 month ago

    She begs to be heard yet she never makes a sound
    Spends her days as a wanderer but still wants to be found
    Craves to be extraordinary but doesn’t deny that she is plain
    Hides under umbrellas when she claims she loves the rain.

  • Carly commented on the post, leverage 1 month ago

    She traded her ability to write for a good night’s sleep
    Chose not to feel over the potential to weep
    Thoughts smothered and buried in the back of her mind
    Her eyes saw the world, but her heart became blind.

  • Carly posted an update 1 month ago

    Day after day, just trying to survive
    How much of my life was spent barely alive?
