your hand tangled in my hair,
you tilted my head up, bent down,
and pressed your lips to mine.
It felt wrong... really wrong.
I pressed my body to yours
My mouth opened, inviting you in with a sigh.
THIS IS WRONG my head screamed.
Something I should not have done.
Something I should not have let you do.
It was a long kiss.
Your tongue grazed mine
your hand cupped my face and your breaths calm and quiet
mine hot and staggered.
A few seconds of confusion; of desire.
5 years we loved each other,
5 years we couldn't be together.
I pulled away, breaking the spell.
I gasp, my eyes fluttering to stare at my shoes.
the air around us thick with shame and loneliness.
what have i done
I couldn't look you in the eyes.
You embraced me, and asked if i was alright.
I nodded numbly, and stumbled into my home as you walked away.
I entered my room expecting myself to cry.
I cheated. I am a cheater. I destroyed what was the only good thing that was happening to me.
I'm not single,
you're not letting go.
This can't go on.

I am a menace.
I bring with me pain, and heartache
I hurt you, and anger you in ways you never knew could
I taunt you, and harm you in places that can't be seen.
I am a disgusting shell of what I used to be,
full of masks to hide my scars.
I don't know how to love,
only to act selfishly.
I am undeserving of hope
underserving of a job, a school
Unworthy of friends, unworthy of love.
Unworthy of happiness, and unworthy of life.
When can I cease to exist?
When can I finally disappear from existence?
When I'm gone from this earth, do not keep fond memories in your thoughts.
Remember me as I was -
A brutal, rude, spiteful creature, unloving and selfish.
Remember all the times i hurt you.
Remember all the pain i caused
Remember the disappointment, the shattered hopes, the wasted time, and money.
Remember my glare, not my grin.
Remember my scowl, not my laugh.
Remember my cold eyes.
Then maybe you'll hate me and you won't miss me.
Maybe you'll forget me sooner because you want to forget.
Maybe then, and only then,
I'll finally cease to exist.

One hug was all it took to send me reeling.
Our hands grazed and I wished you'd grab mine
My thumb touched your palm as we flipped the pages of a book together,
sitting so close - our thighs side by side.
Your eyes light up when you talk about art
and your smile brightened the dark museum.
As we said goodbye, your opened your arms for an embrace,
I ran into your arms and it felt right.
Our hug was long, it was comfortable.
I wish i could stay in your arms.

I've been getting up at 8.
The first thing I do is to check my phone,
Hoping to see a text from you.
These days we don't text anymore,
I still check my phone,
hoping to see your name light up that tiny screen
I should stop clinging to a disintigrating flame,
But I can't stop getting up at 8.

Do feelings fade?
or will my heart always skip two beats seeing your name light up my screen with a text from you?
Do feelings fade?
or will I wish we'd never met just to spare myself the agony of not being with you
Do feelings fade?
and how do i get over the fact that you're so perfect, funny and witty?
how do i say i love you without making things awkward, without jeopardising what we have? and how do i make you stay?

i used to write poems about you
and here we are texting each other like we're best friends.
like the good old days
sometimes i wish we were together.
i could hold your hand and love you,
hug you tight and kiss you.
but we're not meant to be..
maybe we shouldn't be texting.
maybe i should let you go

your smile,
your scent,
your eyes,
and the way they wrinkle at the sides.
your chest,
your face,
your hands,
that love to hold mine.
your charm,
your laugh,
your shy moments
that make me giggle
your tears,
your anger,
your fears
that no one else has seen.
your love,
your voice,
your touch
is what i live for.
your nose,
your lips,
your waist
that i put my arms around.
your tongue,
your mind,
your soul
that i love every inch of.
your hair,
your clothes,
your heart
that i hold so dearly
next to mine.

we both know
we won't last.
i regret so much telling you i loved you too.
Here we are, tears streaming down our faces
as if we've already broken up
i can't look at you
but you tilt my chin up.
you tell me to forget all that we've said
but i know you won't.
we're not meant to be.
your life and mine
never should have intertwined in the first place
i never should have fallen in love with you.

My hands are shaking
i can't breathe
my tears won't stop flowing down my cheeks
my chest aches
and my hands are cold.
I really don't want to be alone.
You pressed your lips to mine
and held my face in your hands.
But now you say we're just friends.
i knew you were trouble.
you say you're not the right guy for me,
but you're the guy i want.
you say you aren't over your past
well neither am i.
**** me for falling for you.
I should have known better.

It's hard to put into words
how you make me feel.
Every time i see i have a text from you,
my heart skips three beats
and i need to catch my breath.
When i meet you,
looking into your eyes
renders me speechless
and all i can do is hope
i don't look like a toad to you.
Do you know you're giving me
these little heart attacks?
What are you thinking when you stare at me?
What do you feel when you ask to meet me?
Am i simply another girl you know..?
I don't want to be.
