Gay suicides

He finds his fathers gun
thinking of what his classmates said.
He doesn't cry, not a single tear
as he put the gun up to his head.

Why must you cause pain for love?
Why can't you just leave it be?
Don't be the cause of someone's death
Don't cause their misery.

She gathers all the prescription drugs in the house
and takes it all, 3 pills at a time.
It takes her a while, to finish it all,
even now she feels like grime.

Why must you cause pain for love?
Why can't you just leave it be?
Don't be the cause of someone's death
don't cause them misery.

He goes to the garage, to find some rope
and ties a deadly knot.
He lays his head inside the noose
and steps off an oversize pot.

Why must you cause pain for love?
Why can't you just leave it be?
Don't be the cause of someone's death.
Don't cause them misery.

He looks at the roaring water beneath him
remembering all the threats.
As he jumps into the raging river
he knows he has no regrets.

Why must you cause pain for love?
Why can't you just leave it be?
Don't be the cause of someone's death.
Don't cause them misery.

boring skies to bright eyes

The world surrounding me is all in shades of grey and beige. The cars, the streets, the sky, each object is blending into another. Even the usually bright green of the fake grass seems grey. The overcast sky that stretches over our entire beige world mixes into the building, the people, the streets. Everything is bland. Everything is nothing.
Until I see you. Yes, your body, just like everyone else's, blends into its surrounding, as if you were just part of the scenery. But something makes you stand out. It's your eyes. The bright yellow, as if pure gold had been melted just for your irises, surrounding the tiny dot of a pupil, it stands alone, the only sharp color in this dull world.

I won't lie

I could tell you I love you
and list the reasons why
I could tell you hundreds of adjectives
to describe the color of your eye

I could tell you how cute your chin is
Just to see you blush
I could whisper it right into your ear
Just to make your whole face flush

I could tell you that I would give up
Chocolate, beef and cheese
I could tell you I love every part of you
Even your messed up knees

I could tell you to look at the moon
And know that I see it too
That I'll be with you always
And my heart will never fall eschew

I could tell you so many things
And all of them are true
I'll say them over and over again
So that you know they're all true
