We **** ourselves to escape this hell
But they say if we commit suicide
We don’t go to heaven

So where do we go
If we escape the bad, to be rejected by the good

You left me with the melodies of your voice
That are now stained on to my favorite songs
That you sung all the time
Because I asked and begged for you to sing
At every chance I had

I guess I asked and begged because I knew
That at one point you would be gone
Like the bipolar rain
That doesn't know if it should stay or leave
So comes on and off

I guess I asked and begged
So I could remember your voice
Just like my favorite songs
That I still sing in my head

I stared at the ceiling
Remembering when you joined me
On the roof top last summer
You called me Lilo
And I questioning if you were drunk
You said "No, I'm Stitch"

I laughed and played along
But you kept your face quiet serious
You told me that just as I needed you
You needed me

And that together or not
We would always be.

Hello rain coating the my windows
Having Olympic races to see who gets to the bottom
Hello morning filled with hope and wonders
Filled with yawns and excitement
Filled with anticipation

Hello dog walkers
Hello birds
Hello morning lovers
Sleep tight morning haters

Hello Mom
Goodbye Dad.

After a day that ends a 5 day cycle for two days that leaves you with heartaches. The 5 day cycle that either you enjoy, or have a deep hatred for. It's the on and off relationship that you have been dreading since the day your parents forced you into it in exchange for a smart child that would never disappoint. Too bad for the parents though, the deals in the relationship have been long broken, so why not just end it because no couples therapy would fix the wounds in this relationship.

You open the door to a jumping dog that one of your sibling swill attend to when they come home, since you took the poor dog out in the morning enabling you to run late for school. Enabling the sassy math teacher that questions your every move to say "yes, please do disturb my class" though you came in as quietly as you could. Setting down all your belongings you take a deep breath, the room is cold. Not too cold, the wind leaves you with a nice spring breeze. You strip out your clothes but end up wearing a sweater because it's enough to prevent shivering. You curl up at the corner of your bed. Surrounding yourself with the quietness, except for the birds outside flying about singing their songs and dancing with their loves. Oh how you wish you were one of them.

You take out a book, lay down on a pillow, and read. Because loneliness doesn't always mean that you don't have company.
not much of a poem, but more of a second person writing.

I wanted to say hi
Today and yesterday
They day before and maybe tomorrow also
But as I gained the strength in my feet
And the air in my lungs
You turned around
And the feel of Nostalgia had begun.

— The End —
