But
I have never treated you wrong
But all you see in me are my
wrongs

I don't expect you
to love me as much as I do
But at least I expect you
to act like you do

Every time your words
make a hole in my back
But every time it is love that I give back

You say that I don’t love you as much as I used to
But I wish you knew how much
my love could add up to

It’s like everytime we play a game of blame and shame
But my blame and shame
no more than my love which is always the same

Everytime my heart bleeds for you
But all the time its all about you

Sometimes I feel like i am
some dirt to get rid of
But I  would rather be that dirt
than nothing at all

You can treat me however you want
But I will always love you more
because you are all I want

If you could read my mind you would be in tears
When I see you I always try to be keep it classy
But everytime I touch you I get a little nasty
I have it , I know it, and I use it
That’s all I can say about my love for you to believe it
I always think of three words every time
When with you it’s I LOVE YOU
Without you it’s **** MY LIFE
Always acting like nothing is wrong
Putting **** aside and acting strong
We both have wounds that no one can see
But all I say is it’s ok when it’s not at all.
It’s not OK if I am a second choice,
I always want to be first.
You will always be
A flower that I will take care of
to make sure it doesn’t wither
Even during the coldest winter

My life a boring genre
Stuck in a cold abyss
Everything going a miss
Comfortable with falling
in love with a lie
as long as the truth isn't revealed

So hard to make it right
ending up making the air tight
trying so hard to understand this pain
the more i do, the less trust i gain
Stuffing all these mortal coils
in this long necked bottle
the pain and feelings
stuffed in and congested

Only one way to let them out
break the bottle and release me
But the thought of the broken glass
cutting through those feelings
and maybe, just maybe
the bleeding never stops
makes me hide that bottle
far away from any one

Let's play pretend.
Let's pretend we don't know each other.
Let's pretend we were never lovers.
Let's start over.
You can teach me how to sing.
I can teach you how to dance.
You can teach me to play piano.
I can teach you how to love.
Let's start over.
Let's drink.
Let's drink to the good times, to the bad.
Let's get ****** up together and not remember how it ends.
Let's be young, wild, and free.
Let's start over.
Now let's remember.
Let's remember the past.
Let's remember how we used to be.
Let's remember all the fun we had when we pretended.

"Always become the one being hurt
Rather than ever hurting another"
Words I have strived to live by
The philosophy left by my mother

I've always tried to live my life
Standing up for what is right
Helping others no matter the cost
Being everyone's shining knight

What a horrible way to live

Even when I was on the verge of breaking
Even when the burden seemed too large
I always took it onto myself
And it was always free of charge

They all need to pay

But lately there is this voice
Echoing from the back of my mind
That is always fighting to take over
It wants to punish the unkind

Maybe I don't want to forgive

Tell me who is that inside me
Those thoughts can't be my own
Even when there's no one around
Somehow I am not alone

Just let me come out and play

I'm trying to keep it at bay
Am I past the point of no return?
I JUST WANT THE VOICE TO GO AWAY
But.... *Now....it's my turn
I tried so hard to get this done before December was over :/
There goes the whole "post at least a poem a month for a whole year...."
Oh well.
ANYWAYS....this took a much darker/creepyer...twist than I originally intended....So....oops. sorry about that. I hope you all enjoy it though!!!!
This poem was inspired by the show Tokyo Ghoul....just...for the record. Anyways. Hope y'all like it.

I thought this day would never come,
The day that you cried over what I do
But I did it because you asked me to.
I never knew it would hurt this much

I sit down and wonder,
Was what I did a blunder
All in the name of a better living
I never knew it would come to this

I wish I didn't have to
I wish my life was as perfect as yours
I wish it would all go away
I never knew wishes were just that....wish

Every life I live is a fake,
Every word I say to you is not
Every chance I get I give it all
I never knew it could not be enough

I never knew you will be hurt
I never knew us was stronger than I
I never knew I could love this much
Until I married another....
