Him leaving, It’s going to hurt. It’ll burn and sting. It’s going to hurt. He will build you up, Like Lego blocks, Just to tear it all down, It’s going to hurt. He will convince you he loves you, Say all the right things, And he’ll still leave And it’s going to hurt. You will lay awake gasping at night, While he sleeps, While he dreams, It’s going to hurt. And I was expecting it too. What I didn’t expect, was that I Loved him more than I loved myself. What I didn’t expect, Was that I had planned for a future with him. What I didn’t expect, Was that it would hurt, It would hurt so bad, It killed me. It killed the girl I used to be.

It’s Going To Hurt
Bones, Delicate, slender, beautiful. Cheek bones, That encase a beautiful face, A glowing smile highlights those bones, With a tint of pink. Collar bones, Which lead to big beautiful ******* That are **** and hold a head up high. Ribs, **** little bones, peering right through the skin Showcasing every small gasp, Every small breath. Hip bones, A product of a flat stomach, Sharp and beautiful, Something he can grab tenderly. Knobby knees, That have a gap between them, A gap for someone to fit in. And long spindly fingers, Cold to the touch. Bones, I want to see them, I want to touch them, Caress them with a tenderness never shown to me, Then perhaps, when I can touch the fragility of my bones, under my skin Will I be happy with my body, with myself No longer will I be the girl needing to lose weight, I will be beautiful, wanted, cared about Perhaps, even people will see how fragile I truly am, Perhaps someone will look after me, finally.

Bones
Eyes flutter while heads pound, Memories come flooding in, Someone else in the bed, Soft smirks, asking how it was, How what was? Heart and head pounds, Memories go blank, Except small struggles, Soft drunken no's, that go unheard, Still touching, no stopping, please stop, Blank, Enough, smile, It was good, it had to be, Small nagging feelings, Ignore, ignore, go away, Nothing happened, Everything stills, Voices heard, but not recognised, Shapes and shadows, Nothing real, nothing happened, Silent screams, as the world moves, World moving, but I am not moving with it.

Memories
Beatings and screaming Tears streaming down your face Punished for being attracted to guys Something you didn’t choose Why do you have to be this way? People hate on you for who you love You hate yourself for loving them You hide yourself Hurt yourself Why do you have to be this way? Your friends are gone Your families screaming, “It’s just a phase” Nobody understands After all, they’re not gay Why do you have to be this way? “God will send you to hell” They scream Getting louder each time they speak You can’t take it! Why do you have to be this way? You scream and cry in anguish Until they push too hard They push you off the edge This is the only way Why do you have to be this way? You fall The wind screaming relief in your ears You’re flying The ground getting closer Why did you have to be this way? One last breath THUD! You’re gone, gone from the prejudice You’re safe, there’s no more pain Why did you have to be gay? They cry, they lie About how they didn’t know But how couldn’t they? They gave the final push Why did they have to be that way? Why couldn’t they just accept and love you the way you were?
