FTM/Toledo My name is Nyk, I am a writer, I am interested in what people think of my writing and I love reading new things. I'm huge on outdoors and I'm also a nerd.
Let's write a book. Just you and I. We can fill it with all of our happiest times. Our luckiest moments. You fill the first line with yours, Then I'll write mine. Mine is obvious, the moment you came into my life. Yours is short and unspecific: "The moment he walked into my life." We spent a lot of time putting life into that book. And you lied about everything. About loving me, about wanting me. You let me go, and you burned our pages. And all of my love, went up with the paper.

Us.
Instead of sewing the pieces of our broken hearts back on, we stitched them to each other and when you ripped away I bled for days, while you stitched another. Did we make a mistake? Or just do things the wrong way?

You'll realize, no matter how much you beg or how much you cry, you have far less value in their eyes, so let it come as no surprise when you're never by their side.

So Sick of Being A Last Resort.
"Why God?" He asked, tears threatening to spill over. He picked at the metal of the train track as if it would fix his broken heart. And then when he least expected it, God said. "You'll never be enough, and for that, I am sorry."

A Heart Is Never Fully Healed Until It Is Content With Never Getting What It Wants.

Do you know how much it hurts to not be enough for anyone else? Maybe it's because I'm not enough for myself. I am hurt from the lacking of everything. I thought you truly loved ME.

You make me sorry for wanting attention But I know you love me. NOTHING could tell me differently with everything you've showed me. But why do you get angry when I ask you to call? You told me you would.... And why is it that you don't want my attention? You know how I am Bursting with affection! But still I feel the need to say sorry Every time you say something that stings me deep down. I want to curl up in a ball, regretting that I miss the sound of your voice like it's something to be ashamed of. I want to forget the way that it stung to hear those words, how my stomach dropped and my blood numbed, just like it always does. I'm sorry that I care, I'm sorry that I miss you. But I truly can't be sorry that I love you.

I'm Sorry
I'll never forget your red knees. Or the way you clutched that book. You said today's world has you afraid. You close your eyes screaming you can't look. I look outside and I see quiet, I understand why you're scared. You whisper to yourself a quiet prayer. "There's only crazy people out there." I grab your hand and look in your eyes, "there's no one there, on ones alive."

Apocolyptic Prayer.
Sometimes, when I lay in bed, things crawl into my head. They tell me how to think, as I fall asleep.

....
I miss the sound of crunching leaves, victim to our druken teen feet. My soul aches for the way you used to look at me. I miss the way you'd line up with the trees, smile at me and breathe in disease. Almost as beautiful as the smoke in your lungs. I miss a lot of things, but I'll never miss what we've become.
