I like how
being with you
makes me feel
as if anything
is possible
that everything
I struggled
through was
worth it for
this moment
alison Jun 2015
a smile planted
on your lips
lustful eyes
your fingers
reach across
to grasp mine
alison Jun 2015
My words
are powerless
to explain how
I feel for you
alison Jul 2015
I can’t help
but wonder

if you think
about me
half as often
as I think
of you.
alison Jul 2015
Lately I’ve been lost
in thoughts so often
and my mind is taken
over by ‘what ifs’

It’s hard to change and
be a better person when
everyone around you still
remain selfish and cruel.
alison Jul 2015
I'm not the person
I want to be
That person seems
far out of reach
an unattainable hope
I'm terrified I'll
never wake from
this nightmare.

A smile can be
the best mask

I cringe when
someone mentions
your name now.

The first thing that
I think of is how much
I still love you.

But then I have
to keep reminding
myself that there
is no longer an us.

I miss having someone to talk
about nonsensical things at night.
I miss having the sense of companionship.
I wish it’s easier to trust people and
share stories to them.
alison Jun 2015
When you say ‘I miss you’
my heart, both swells and breaks.
alison Jun 2015
I swallow my tongue
though I love you
the words don't come out
and if they do
they don't sound right
It's a lie to say
love is easy.
alison Jun 2015
You notice all my
flaws and failures
but never acknowledge
my strengths and
accomplishments
alison Jul 2015
The things that
make me sad the most
are the people
who break promises
and the what ifs,
should haves,
would haves,
and could haves.
alison Jun 2015
You can’t just
walk away without
telling me what’s
wrong, you can’t just
leave me like that.
alison Jun 2015
I wonder if
you find yourself
thinking of me
thinking about you
or vice versa
alison Jul 2015
I want to be
the person who
you think about
when you listen to
soppy love songs
