I'm sick of these endless nights face down in pools of sweat And waking up only to have my head full of regret I had to check my phone to made sure I hit "send" And to no surprise, there's no reply again It happened again, I placed my bets You know I was all in A promise of escape from the way things had always been So why am I lower than where I have began? What am I hoping for, if it's not you? I've spent all of my time and money Trying to find something to distract me I'm over starving myself just to feel some type of control And doing trifle things just to fit the mold So why stop now when I still have some control? I just want something to make me whole Don't leave me standing out here in the cold The pain always comes back in the morning Again, I'm living just trying to ignore it

Faded visions, I can barely Remember it so vaguely Yesterday when you still had me But you let me slip Broken promises, broken grips Heavy lust for your eyes and lips Heavy feelings that we both can't lift Putting up a front like this ain't wrong Listening to sad songs while denying that I ain't strong This is a love that I turned my back on This is a mistake I'll never learn from Late night voice messages on your phone You still listen to them right? I'm the villain, you're the victim, right? Frustrations got you wanting to get back at me Instead of with me, right? Who took who for granted? Insecurities dragged us in this You told me you understood But your eyes show growing distance Let's just face it, right now you hate This kind of love that now needs space Drowned you in trust, even though I'm drained But you still doubt me like you don't know my name

It's been three weeks since but I guess I'm just never ready To be honest, since you left everything has been pretty unsteady To be honest, since I left, I can barely eat or get ready I've been trying to fill this void with anyone who will let me And I just hate how I'm still stuck inside this game The loser is the one who shows they still care, or still feel in pain I'm checking if you took down all our pictures, just so I can do the same I'm so ******* petty, I wasn't ready for you to just stand up and change And I know that you won't even miss me when you look for replacement I live adjacent on the map, didn't I give you enough space? How could you be so fake? I was real from the start Every lie was like a knife that I took straight to the heart I don't know who you are, how could I when you lied from the start? I can't lie, honestly, I still think about you And when I go out with my friends, I still drink about you I'm sorry if I made you question how I feel about you Put you over everything, but now I have to live without you I promise I would've stayed if there was a way I could save us If only you spent as much time on us as you do your make up I tried everything I could but you still gave up

Will you please explain to me why there's another man? How can I not sense such things when you're the only love of my life? Although you won't say so, the lack of feeling shows All of the warmth is gone; the space between us just grows How could a kiss give you away? Tell me what's it that you've done? I bet you have the answers, but you can't give me one I used to trust you so; lately, I just don't know And after what I've seen, there's no doubt left in my mind Whatever happened to that girl whom I once fell for? I'm hoping we'll soon meet again And share those times like we did before When you thought I didn't know Which wasn't that long ago I tried to ask you, "Honey, why are you feeling low?" If something's wrong, say so; not, "I have to go" But the real problem, though Lies in what you'd rather do Did you not think there'd be a chance you'll get caught with that man? How you can do such things, I don't understand If I have wronged you so, why can't you let me know? Instead, you went with him; making a mess of my mind If you don't know, then let me tell you what hurts me more It's to insist on seeing you just one way: like I did before When I see you with that man, it's just more than I can stand You left me easily Could've made you stay if I had not ignored all the signs This time, I'm reaching out Because there's just too much left unsaid Although our love took its toll, there won't be peace in my soul until I know I've done enough I can change what I've done wrong if you would tell me how; though I fear it's been too long to make a difference now Can't we just let go of the past so we could start anew? And once the worst is over, maybe you'll soon see; despite our troubles, we're worth it after all

I know I've been a gone for a while But I heard that you're doing just fine You graduated and got a job and you've been working for some time It's good to see you looking forward and not behind I know you never find me crossing your mind But I would be lying if you didn't cross mine And from time to time I see some of your pictures online Summer of 2017 was hard, a time when I put my heart on the line I tried to forget you and that took a couple months of my time It looks like you found the love that I was hoping to find The only you that I love is the one that I create in my mind You'll never be mine and I know that But remember the time I came to see you? I thought it would just be you, but there were a few other people I know there never was a "We", so there would never be a sequel I know you were bluffing when you said you cared Our only real connection were the memories that we shared I would never try to blame you, I know that much isn’t fair Not that you care but the stress is really starting to wear And through these words is when I took our story and I used it I'm gifted with the curse of honesty and the truth is, I loved you more than words I just didn't know how to prove it And I often ask myself if you ever did care I ponder countless thoughts that's why in my mind is the only time you were ever there I know we were only friends, but it felt more than just pretend These past few months have been awfully clear The real us is what I fear to see The one where we were only friends and I acted like we were dating And nowadays our messages go, "Hey, happy something~belated" And every letter I wrote for you Deep inside I know you actually hate them Because I realized that you never felt the same when you read it You never cared on how much I put into it But I guess that's why I'm so emasculated All the love that I've been getting through my phone feels phony I try to rhyme a couple of words together To put myself out there so you could understand me We're in a world full of people and yet I'm still feeling lonely I lie to myself that there's plenty of fish in the sea But the sea is full of sharks and you’re the only one for me And as I'm finding myself drowning while I'm fighting to breathe I realize that I'm still in love with what I thought we could’ve been

I swear that I've been praying for a better day But everyday I swear it feels like it's getting worse I'm losing everybody slowly and it's causing me pain Maybe the afterlife would be better than this Earth? Depression is killing me up inside I'm all alone and I'm feeling so useless My friends told me I've been acting so stupid But they don't know how I've been really doing It's not easy when you have nothing and have nobody So if I take my life no one else would care about it Been contemplating for a while to pull this trigger now I hope you keep this same energy when I'm going down You don't even know what I'm going through I feel like I got nothing else to lose I don't know what to do, can you help me? Because I will pull this trigger if you let me I've been trying hard but I'm only human And the devil got my soul

Indecisions between a dream and the girl of my dreams I keep telling myself that there's always better things You start to neglect what you have and regret it the moment it leaves For me, it was always the ocean but only one fish in the sea I know I said a lot of things that you know I didn't mean My heart got broken so many times and yet I blamed you for everything And I know it's been a while but I still feel like I'm the only one struggling I wasn't at all entitled but you made me feel like a king I'm sorry I tried to change you You can hate me but I won't blame you If I told you that I'm different now would you give me back the same you? I know you deserve better I know you're moving on as I'm writing this letter As I'm pretending that I'm fine like I don't want us together While I've been shoving this loneliness aside like I'm the one doing better It's all a mask, can't you see that there's a heart with your name? All you gave me was love but all I gave you was pain

FinalThoughts
Lately I've been entertaining my depression Why does everything have to be a lesson? Does everybody think that my life is so perfect? It's not and everyday I'm always stressing Don't tell me what's best for me When I needed you the most and you weren't there for me I'm speaking in full honesty I know that I can't let these things get to me There's not too many answers and there's so many issues A **** ton of tear drops and I've been running out of tissues I wake up every morning and I ask myself Is life worth living or should I blast myself? I got these thoughts up inside my head What's the point of even living when I would rather be dead? I ask myself if I'm another victim to my misery? Or maybe everything I'm thinking is all in my mind Why does that everything that I want still a clouded mystery? And everything that I don't want is so easy to find I used to go to parties with all my friends Until I got comfortable with these lonely nights And lately my head has been an empty state of mind How ironic that being alone is the one thing I'm good at, right?

MYkindestREGARDS
My heart aches on a depressing state Can't face these lonely nights, I keep staying out way too late In need of good hands, where the hell are all of my mates? A stronger heart is just the thing that I lack I go and start up the engine but I keep hesitating if I should come back I told myself to do it but now I'm 2 years too late I'm at a dead end road in life and I can feel the weight Chasing a so called vision and I don't know where it goes They say the highway to happiness can be the loneliest road You know I'm doing the best that I can Talking about this, doesn't mean you'll ever understand It's pathetic that my heart is still calling for a girl Who has got a better man And yet she told me not to fall for her But I did so anyways She told me not to wait for her But she crossed my mind so I thought of her today Lately I've been writing these things that I shouldn't say And I've been feeling the things that I shouldn't feel But if don't let her know, would all of this be even real?

I know I haven't been myself lately I've been feeling like someone else other than me and just maybe It's this empty glass of gin, it helps numb my pain inside Because truthfully, I haven't felt any love from you lately I'm still in love with you and I've been needing a sign We both needed our space You needed someone else's love and time I never understood how you became so heartless Until I realized that maybe you just needed mine Loving you was so hard and it never helped Because I just couldn't decide between loving you or myself I know what it's like to lose somebody you love To feel emptiness as you lose yourself to the drugs I know what it's like to let go of someone Because they've hurt you to a point You're not the person you were once was I've been dying to live and the devil's been shooting to **** I just can't help but think if one day, you're thinking of me still
