Oh, to be loved enough to be understood
To be loved enough to be seen
To be loved enough to be honest
To be loved enough to be me
Maybe I was loved enough
Maybe I was seen
But all I know is that with you,
I was every version of me.
Just me, though
No embellishments
Maybe that's why we didn't happen
Because I just wasn't worth the impediment
But you said I was more than enough
But you said so much
Maybe if you hadn't explained
I'd actually see myself as such
Maybe I was always enough
Because I was more than enough for you
Maybe if you hadn't given us up
Understanding would have hurt less too

I know you don't watch my story anymore
But I'll still post this, hoping you'll see
Hoping you'll look, hoping you'll
Maybe notice what it feels like to be me
I love you...
God, I have never said that before
But you probably won't see this post,
So who tf am I even writing this for?
For me, maybe
To get this off my chest
To maybe, just maybe
Put these conflicting feelings to rest...
You said you really liked me,
What's the ******* use...
Of a love acknowledged
That will always only be refused?
You know, I sometimes wish I
Didn't text you that night
To ask you that question
That possibly ruined my life...
Because the more I thought about it,
The more it hurt...
Because how can I be more than enough
But still not yours?

"We hardly see you anymore", my mom said today.
Weren't you the one who chased me away?
I'm never home because of you.
Because I can't be who I want to be with you.
Because I can't cry in front of you.
Because I can't tell you anything anymore.
Just trying to tell you about my day is signing up for your degradation.
And I know you're bitter about the way life turned out.
Does that mean I shouldn't be happy anymore?
Home is supposed to be a place to look for
You turned it to place I don't want to be anymore.

You know it’s scary
how I let you close.
Too close.
Far too close.
I probably shouldn’t.
I know I shouldn’t.
Yet here you are,
staring into my eyes
like you’ve already found
what you’re looking for.
Planting kisses on my cheek
that linger a second too long,
like they’re asking
to become something else.
And a part of me—
a very quiet, reckless part—
wants to let them.
But they can’t.
Because you’re too much.
Too sure.
Too… everything I didn’t ask for.
And still,
I’m not complaining.
Because sometimes
God doesn’t give you
what you want.
He gives you
what you need.
And maybe that’s you.
Or maybe
you’re just another lesson
I’ll have to survive.

"You're always happy".
To you, yes.
Because you don't see the midnight tears.
Or the tears welling up when I think too hard
To you, yes.
Because you don't feel me feeling feel too much on days that I just want to end
To you, yes.
Because you don't notice me noticing what makes me overthink everything.
To you, yes.
Because you're not me.

I feel empty nowadays
Not sad
No despair lurking below
No joy.
I laugh
I smile
I play
But the emptiness just doesn't leave.
It never leaves.
I can't explain it
It's just empty. Nothing. Rien. Nada.

A friend saw me and said
"What are you thinking about, Elizabeth?
Stop reasoning life. Just give up."
She meant it as a joke of course and hugged me on her way out.
What she doesn't know is I already did

"Why are you always on your phone?"
-"To escape."
"Escape what? The world?"
"To escape me.
To escape the thoughts too loud in my head To escape my mind tearing me apart from the inside.
To escape who I am when no one else is there."
There you ******* go."
I didn't say all that tho
" Just to escape."

I love their love
I say, tears in my eyes
They're my favorite couple
I'm forcing a smile
I don't care
I say, my fingers crossed behind my back
They're happy together
My smile begins to crack
He loved her once
They whisper behind my back about me
But she was just a phase
They say, like I'm nothing more than pills of ecstasy
I was the high he didn't want to keep chasing
She was the low he settled for
I'm trying to accept that
I'm not the one anymore
