23/M They say love is blind so I write my poems in Braille
There's a storm inside me Where my heartbeat crashes like the thunder across my chest , with the water from my eyelids pouring as the rain comes to take over. It’s the lightning thats scattering throughout my mind as if Zeus is condemned with a constant rage. Where the wind takes over my fingertips to write these imperfect letters on cold open page. it's hard to explain how is it that I miss you when I've never really had you in the first place and you wouldn't understand you see your heart has long forgotten about feelings like these. still I hear your voice calling my name I see you before my eyes even in my dreams I write about you , where I’m still lost in the time. and in my waking hours your smile brings raindrops in my coffee and tears on the shirt I wear because once you said that you liked it; spring brings tulips at my doorstep but it's hard to feel their perfume to let their scent in my broken lungs; people tell me that all I have to do is breathe but it's hard to breathe without crying.

Washed up
We went from talking everyday to strangers. From goodmorning texts to a forever goodbye. I cant even say I miss you, because I dont know if I do. I wasted my time and emotion, and it's what I hate. A habit that never seems to end. I just cant seem to find the right one. Maybe it's me that is lost

Truly wish you the best
She's the girl you read about in books, The one with a happy ending. An intelligient mind, With a heart that's still mending. She's the girl you'll wish to meet, The one that's worth trying. A strong steady spirit, With a perseverance  that's never dying She's the girl that's truly special The diamond within the stones, One who is worth listening to, The music to your headphones. She's the girl who will inspire The success story no doubt, The chapters in a book, You'll read to your kids about. Shes the girl that brings smiles, Something so bright and new. A happier life's to come , With this different shade of blue .

A Different Shade of Blue
I tried my best this time I really did! To start all over and try to feel happiness again. But just like that, life dragged me down. Leaving me empty and useless For what's a king without a crown? A new beginning that came to an end Trying to hold in the demons, so my heart can finally mend. Yet I'm just a slave of a constant depression a body with no soul, dripping teardrops of perfection. I hoped for a chance but I was just given a fate, relying on the bottle and taking the pills for a date . I'm racing my life down, Leaving with traces of evil Theres no point in trying when your left with a stitch and a broken needle.

A torn stitch, a broken needle
I have to imagine these thoughts of us being back together, but its never the same . You are already happy again with someone else, But why can't I change? It seems so unfair how easy it is for you to let go and not me , I just wish I'd never met you then my heart wouldn't be melting. I just wish I could forget you and let you go and close the chapter to our book, But every photo of you brings back the memories we once had, and all the times they were all took. But I just wanna forget them now, Cause it feels like I'm the only one in pain. I just wanna forget us now, Cuz I no longer want it to rain .

Stop the rain
Put a bullet in my skull, maybe two or three. I'm  tired of all the excuses  and lies, that you made me believe. I wish you were out of my life already, but I also wish we just met. but why do you keep giving me hope we'd be together again, then dropping me like a finished cigarette. I try my best not to look at a text, that comes from your  name. Cause ever since you've left me, I can't read them the same. I just want to let you go, and forget all we had and whatever could've been. I mean,  why do you always ask me what could've been when you were the one who broke us apart to begin. I just can't take much longer of your fake innocence and lies I just wish you'd let me be everyone keeps thinking I'm the wrong one, but you're the one they don't bother to see. Yet I never cared what others thought, and never will I ever, cause they don't know what it feels like, to lose what you thought you'd have forever. Because forever and always, was what we always said after our I love you's. but now your happy with another guy, while I'm lost singing the blues. I wish you'd get out of my head so I can finally be free. Better yet, just put a bullet in my skull, maybe two or three.

Pull The Trigger
The chains wrapped around my body seem to get tighter every day. The thriving sensation in my chest never seems to go away. The stones attached to my feet, aim to drag me down lower. I can't even scream for help, cause the waters getting colder. I try to remember what it was like, to be able to breathe on my own but the weights that are sewn into me, continuously have grown. The shackles on my wrist feel like wet concrete in the sun My blood flow has stopped, and the feeling is numb. I don't know how to explain myself, when people ask me what's wrong I just look and say nothing, with a smile to go along but really I'm not sure, and I haven't found the right answer I'm just tired of living and wish death would come faster I"m slowly going under the harder I'm thinking Trying to find a way to keep myself from slowly sinking. My body wants to break free , but it's my mind that's not allowing maybe it's best if i just give in, I mean I'm already drowning.

A Floating Anchor
I always wonder how life would be, if we were still together. Would the words I love you  mean something? Or just be a parade of letters. I guess I'll never know...and I'll forever have to wonder the hardest part of letting go, is trying to forget what you remember. But finally I'm free! Or at least that's what my mind wants me to feel... Maybe I'll feel free, when the devil takes up my deal. When you let go, why is the pain caged in like nightfall, and not release like the sun rays up above? Maybe that's the reason why they call it, falling in love...

Drifting minds, and Falling skies
Another sleepless night. The voices in my head never seem to stop. The screams and the yells are a continuous wall that I just can't seem to break through. My body feels like it's trapped in a cement cage. A feeling so dark and confused, it's seems no bullet or pill can bring sweet pleasure to what's left of my empty soul. How do you love, when your heart is unattached ? The pieces are missing , and the center is cracked . How do you love , when you want to give up? When your mind says okay, But everything else is fucked . I guess the best way to love, Is to just let go, Let the pain take over, And give the devil, your soul ...

Give up, it's Over
I shot for the moon for you , and only landed among the horizon of space. I promised that I'd be there for you when you come back . But it aches. The pain of losing you into a black hole. A distance and a galaxy far away from you, feels never endless , and nevertheless, hardened by the earth's atmospheric pressure trapping me into a haze of emotions. We take our lives for advantage, We take each other's hand for warmth . Yet, All we can do is wait . Wait in the suffering , of unforeseen futures, taunted by others , neglected by more . ... We never cared , Our love meant more than the words of pessimist and judgers , We walked hand in hand with each new war that came to us the next hour . Yet you were always there for me , Your hand in mine. Mine in yours . As it will be when you come back , Forever and always Through depths of space , and the distant future . Landing me, among the stars .
