Life passes between you and I
As our eyes met
And you saw everything you needed
As I saw everything I've been looking for

You cross my mind so often
Might as well say you live rent free in my head

I wish I could scrub you from my skin
But your fingerprints have seeped through to my soul
You left smudges, marks
on my windows
And now, I think I will never be free of you
You have ruined me for anyone else
I don't shine quite the same
And it's a shame
Because...
I've given so much of myself that now, I'm left with only pieces of who I once was
After you waltzed in
like the Devil in the pale moonlight
With your promises
as empty as they were
And your "I love you's"
even I knew they were lies as they fell from your lips
But I believed them
And I actually thought you were different
Silly me because I'll be spending a spell
Trying to wipe you away
I refuse to be dirtied by the likes of you

He says to me,
"Letting you go wasn't easy."
As if being the one being let go was a walk in the park
As if he wasn't the one that pulled the trigger
Aimed directly at my heart

Love is just a word
Until someone comes along and gives it meaning
Or reiterates that it really is just a word

See, with people like me
We expect good things to come as a surprise
And bad things to come like clockwork
Isn't that sad
So to the question as to why I don't put faith into anything
Or believe in anyone
There's your answer

Some mar the mind
While others ****** the body
And they leave lasting impressions

I don't run from my demons
I see them everytime I look in the mirror
Maybe that's why I hate looking at myself so much
Because I see them
And they're a part of me
And there's no hiding it
And I think they like being seen
They show the true darkness that lies in me
That lies within us all

I won't remember the parties
Or the school events
Or the games
Because I never went to them
But this is what I will remember
I'll remember the late nights of homework
And having to wake up early the next morning
And being exhausted in my 9am class
I'll remember the stress that ate my *** alive
To the point where I would cry for 10 minutes straight
And then get back to work like it never happened
I'll remember having an anxiety attack after leaving my professor's office
Because she made me feel stupid about how I wrote my speech
And the moment I stepped outside
I let go of a breath I didn't know I was holding
Then, I started hyperventilating and crying
I'll remember working out in the gym
Because according to my doctor I was obese
And well exercise is a great stress reliever
I'll remember losing my grandfather my junior year
And being so sad and depressed that some days I wouldn't even go to class
And having to go home for the first time and see him not there
I'll remember going through a break up the summer before my junior year
And having my ex try to gain my trust so that he would get another chance
Still confused on whether I should or shouldn't by the way
I'll remember growing closer to some of my friends
And some of my friends distancing themselves from me
And barely spending time with my friends from home
I'll remember contemplating on dropping out
Or going to another school
Or trying to make my other dreams come true
I'll remember being in the financial aid office more times than I can count
Because I'm paying out of pocket for my education
Student loans, Pell grants, and financial aid
Still isn't enough to cover my tuition
I'll remember being moved off campus into smaller dorms
Sharing a room with my best friend
And fighting off creepy crawlers and critters that found their way inside
And missing classes because transportation either ran late
Or didn't come at all
Who knows what else I'll remember
Not done with college yet

Why would I wear my heart on my sleeve?
Such a dangerous place for it to be...
