Living In Your Name

Written during 9th grade.

Do you feel it,
the burning that I feel?

It reads "lie"

for all the dishonesty
and lack of trust.

Exhilarating,

but not nearly as much
as what you gave me.

It will never replace
the burning;

the burning of your eyes.

Nor the ghost of them.
It's haunting.

Lie,
embedded in my mind.

Don't you dare forget
the words I never said,

never leaving the tip of my tongue,

but you knew.

And even when I lie,
you're just left to wonder,

because you know it isn't the truth.

I can't lie to you anymore,

nor explain, 

nor tell you the words

on the tip of my tongue.

And even if I was gone,
you'd still think I was here.

But did you know that I live in your name?

[RAWR!]

lyrical
vivid
very imaginary

"Don't you dare forget
The words I never said,
Never leaving the tip of my tounge.
But you knew."

simply brilliant

"And even when I lie,
You're just left to wonder,
Because you know it isn't the truth."

again very very nice.

keep on writing and expressing yourself.
