i trusted you were different from the rest. i believed the words as they flowed from your mouth when you told me that you would always be here that you cared that you loved me. i trusted you were different when you said you dont express things through actions so i had to believe what you said. maybe i was intrigued by the newness of it all the constant wonder the thought of you watching me in the corner of your eye instead of your full gaze on me. i longed for your total attention just for a minute but you told me you were different. i trusted you were different but actions triumph over words and thats when i knew we needed to end.

trusted you were different
they never wonder about her mind the racing thoughts the never-ending fear the rapid emotions they pursue what they see through the eye the visual but her mind cannot be seen only imagined if you could see her mind you'd see a swirling tornado never ending picking up random **** as it wanders making it a part of itsown but they never wonder about her mind when they see the visual when they see the content girl the fake smile on her face her hair flowing in brown waves her nails painted a soft yellow and they are satisfied with the visual if only they could see her mind.

her mind//the visual
"you can not cry" "crying shows weakness, you are not weak" "push away the feelings you don't want them" "what is that weight you're holding" i feel the tears building my throat clogging my tense hands trembling with fear but not the fear of being seen as weak. i could give a **** about that. the fear of feelings, letting them flow, saying goodbye.

no tears
i see life going i see a clock ticking the sand flowing through the hourglass and piling up at the bottom i see it all. i am there there through all the laughs all the cries all the adventures i am there through it all. i see it all happening i am there through it all happening yet i can not feel anything that is happening

i never meant to say goodbye it was intended to be a see you later i needed time and so i left. but then i came back and you were gone i held on as you changed your morals, your interests, your hopes, your fears. and i then realized i had said goodbye.

We are the ones who are hard to understand We'll be the last ones in the movie theatre because the ending scene made us cry We'll stop to smell the roses because they deserve to be appreciated We are the ones who will take the time to learn what keeps you up at night We are the ones who will imagine an entire future of adventures with the people who show us love We are the ones who will love you more than we love ourselves We will give you our strongest parts in hopes that we can make things better We desire to see you become the best you to make sure that you always feel our love We crave affection and appreciation We give a piece of ourselves away every day sometimes to people who don't deserve it Our love is easy to take advantage of and sometimes we don't get back the love that we give away When we hurt, we crumble and fall apart We constantly have to put ourselves back together We are more fragile than we like to give off We carry our emotions on our sleeves Our flaws have the ability to consume us We aren't afraid to give you the world but we are afraid to feel unloved We want you to see what we see We want you to understand where we're coming from We are good people with good intentions We are stronger than we believe Not everyone can feel the way we feel We feel too much, too often We are not hard to love We are something not everyone knows how to love But you need to remember that your worth does not change just because no one is there to appreciate you, to remind you You are not any less lovable You are the most lovable person in the world You are a light that the world needs Your kindness is not your weakness You do not need to change for anyone's acceptance You do not need to stop giving love just because you don't get any back Your heart is the best thing about you And one day when you least expect it someone will notice you from across the room and know exactly how to love you They will think all of these things are beautiful They will deserve the love you can give They will fill the empty space in your heart But for now, don't stop feeling We are the ones who feel everything so deeply We are the ones who can't give up because We are the ones who will teach the world how to love

To the ones who feel everything

We're almost touching. we were walking side by side, you're talking about cabs in your hometown. I can feel the gravity of your hand, calling my fingers whispering "it's alright." We're touching but not quite. you held my shoulder to protect me from the passing cars. and for the first time in a long while, I felt so fragile. In this world where I find it hard even to breathe, you believed me. I almost said it. All I need is one ounce of strength to tell you every single thing that I have ever felt about you. I want to find home in your collarbones. Would you be kind enough to let a stranger in? I want to seep in your being because I'm cold. The world is harsh and my cracks are aching. Almost.
