Wings
About how even angels fall sometimes and get burned by the ones they trusted the most but they will rise again.
You turned my wings black and burnt my heart. Don’t tell me you’ve loved me from the start. I was an angel with broken wings just wanting to fly and all I got was a painful goodbye. Tell me why my kiss is like poison on your lips when my demons come out to play and your sanity slips. Now I bleed black and ink stains my skin. Don’t lie to me and tell me I’m not your favorite sin. I no longer burn. I no longer hide. Boy, you have so much still to learn. The darkness took over the day my innocence died and now you’re left drowning in my presence but now my wings are luminescent.

Leaving
I’m sorry did you think I was fragile? Do you honestly think you’re the first person to call me an asshole? Be honest, how many hearts have you stole? One kiss, that’s it, more addictive than some opiates. Stop talking to me. All I’ve ever wanted is to be free. Your words don’t mean a damn thing. It was only supposed to be a short fling. Don’t tell me you love me each time after you shove me. You don’t give a damn about me yet you were the only thing I could see. How are your words so pretty and your actions so mean? Shouldn’t we be on the same team? I’ve been unraveling at the seams and all I ever wanted from you was to be seen. Save your empty promises, dear. Now everything is finally clear. You don’t get to call me insane when you made me this way. Listen closely to what I have to say. I don’t want you near and you can no longer cause me any fear. Now just watch me. Holding hands with my demons, I’m finally leavin’.
