I need you to breathe.
I need you to give me life.
I need you.

When someone uses you to try to gain back their happiness
they are making you dull.
They are hurting you.
They are depending on you and taking away your own happiness.

I guess
I just
miss
making
you smile
that way

You
swept
me
off
my
feet
and
helped
me
walk.

The aftermath you left me with remains
by a consent look over my shoulder.
The whispers on the metro that have your voice,
even though I haven't seen you in 11 years.
The tick in my head tells me how you've been living.
The tick is the click on my laptop mouse to get to your facebook screen.
No call to say I'm a big sister.
No call to say how you have been doing.
I have come to found out you moved,
Is it near me?
Do I have to worry about you trying to see me?
Or are you moving on and avoiding me?
I write about you like you were once my lover but instead you were my abuser.
You were the one to blow smoke in my face and say how much you loved me.
Then hurt me in a way that future people could see the hurt in me.
Do you ever think about the pain you caused me?
Or are you just writing your name on everyone and passing it on.
You are the virus I conceal and don't let people know about until it is too late.
So I know this is sad and **** but I thought maybe someone can relate or enjoy it. I know only I will read it the way I hear it in my head but I still hope you can feel my anger and passion.

I have been debating right and wrong my whole life.
I have been standing on a tightrope waiting for my emotions to crave it.
Being taught my favorite color since age 2 and the way I was supposed to be.
I have truly learned a few number of things,
the most important being suicide isn't the worst thing.
Failing to completely be who everyone chose you to be is the worst thing.
Not wearing a dress and tights to church on Sunday, not loving flowers or the color pink.
The worst thing is choosing who YOU want to be.
So I think I have found the reason it is more likely for someone like me to **** themselves off.
I am not who they or you wanted me to be.
I am free.

I have come to terms and conditions
Sign here to be in a different situation
Same outcome
Same benefits
Just the stress,  higher cost of living,  and restlessness.
Sign here to smile for money and be completely unhappy
You hide behind walls of shame and crave into the pressure
You fall and cry because you signed your life away for it to be the exact same.
