Pushing people away,
Remembering the pain.
Diving into work
Emotions restrained.
Yearning for the touch,
Faint trails on the back.
Wishing those moments
Didn’t leave such an impact.
Smiles are superficial
Emptiness left inside.
Absence of a companion
No one available to confide.
Mind kept occupied moving forward
Memories made a blur.
Heart aching for attention
Wishing for a fervor.
Lost without a path
Still finding my way.
Convinced I must do it alone,
Still pushing people away.

They say when you’re happy you hear the music.
When you’re sad you hear the words.
Music lost its melody,
Everything I hear is just verse.

I forgave the ones who hurt me,
yet the pain was still too real.
It wasn’t until I forgave myself,
that the inner wounds began to heal.

We’re adults,
But the boy in me
Will always love
The girl in you.

You moved on.
I’m happy for you.
Now, to myself,
There’s nothing I have to prove.
You moved on.
That’s surely for the best.
Thoughts of what could be
Can now be put to rest.
You moved on.
Malice replaces my place in your heart.
I’m try to keep it together,
But it’s tearing me apart.
You moved on.

my heart wasn’t intact when I met you
but you took my pieces
and arranged them into a puzzle I didn’t know could complete me.
you held them close,
cherishing the small details they entailed,
and warmed them when they were bitter.
one day,
you decided my puzzle wasn’t yours anymore,
and you threw away those tiny, curvy fragments.
a few there and a few here,
I will find them.
I’ll piece them back together,
and find my heart again.
looking up at the stars,
I wonder why my heart feels this way,
the same way it did before I met you.

I love him
I tell myself
I know that
We will be together forever
I don’t believe that
We could be separated
My thoughts tell me that
He’s the love of my life
Sometimes my heart lies and says
I could live an eternity
Without him
Like my friends say
“We’re perfect for each other”
And you can’t tell me
He’s not the one.
Now read from bottom to top.

I told you what love was,
that I know now.
Believe me when I say
that was the only way I knew how.
It was never physical
and I never raised my voice.
I guess I forced you to say it
leaving you with no other choice.
This here is my apology,
although it may fall on deaf ears.
I’m just now realizing what I’ve done,
even after all these years.

Oh sweet little love of mine
We could meet again for the first time.
I thought what we had was true.
Truth is I never really knew you.
