25/F I love writing. Ive been writing stories and now I've been writing poems for some time now.
I thought I was broken but I realize that I was raised by a broken woman.

Stressed, overwhelmed, scared
Thousands of miles separate us Who said long distance works? I hate it I want you here My bed is cold I sleep diagonal When are you coming back? I miss you Come hold me again Virtual dates & late night talks Five minutes of holding you can change it all Long distance is tough Baby I want you I miss you Come hold me again.

Distance
I’m the invisible friend. The one where everyone tells their problems to. The one where everyone comes to for advice. The one where everyone comes to for research. The one where everyone’s goes to for fun time or random adventures. The one where if I need a lending ear I’m alone. The one where if I want to cry I find a corner. The one where if I want to eat I eat alone. The one where if I want to talk I better find my notebook & pen. The invisible friend, Always needed, never wanted.

Dating is like a new bottle of wine. You don’t know what you’re going to get, But you’re eager to finish the bottle

Dating
I can’t trust my heart because she betrays me. I can’t trust my brain because it won’t tell me what I need. They go back and forth. The only thing I have constant in my life is a pen and paper. They never let me believe something else. Everything in front of me is black and white. I trust my pen and paper.

I’ve loved you when I didn’t love myself You loved me but you only loved yourself I did everything for you My heart and soul bled for you Leaving blood marks on the sidewalks But you let the wind blow it away And you choose to see what you wanted Some of you thinking, this is about my boyfriend But listen, best friends can break your heart too. She stuck that knife so deep in my back There’s no way in hell Im ever going back I took care of you cuz that’s what friends do But I like I said, you only loved yourself

Hurt
This is what disappointments feels like. Getting your hopes up knowing you shouldn't Waiting for something that you know in the back of your mind isn't going to happen Predicting different outcomes hoping maybe one of them will be true But when the lights turn on and you take off the shades That deep feeling of dread sinks in because you did it to yourself again I've felt it all my life

Same feeling, different situation
For you I want to be something more The mere thought of your angelic name, brings a brush of wind on my skin Taken, my heart will not let go of you My brain says to run My legs are moving slowly And my heart is beating too fast What do I do?
