24/F Born and raised in New York. (City) / Just a collection of my thoughts. / Literal emotions on a metaphorical sleeve. / / If you know who I am, just pretend like you never found any of this.
It’s okay that you never put me first Because I will It’s okay that you never let go Because I will Someday you’ll be someone that I once knew Someone who someday might become someone that’s worth it to know But I will never Know that it could have been great You and me; imagine that For now; it’s been too late I was worth it, you know You held onto your pride and me; you let go It’s okay, though I forgive you And maybe someday Even today I’ll miss you

It’s Time to Grow
That's how I remember it It was self destructive It was a problem I was problem That's how I remember it I never meant to I never wanted to I hurt you That wasn't how it was supposed to happen That's not how I wanted it to go down But that's how I remember it Uncanny how it fell into place But I still recall The look on you face I wish I couldn't remember it To forget is to insult To shed responsibility To own up to my mistakes Is to establish nobility

Remember It
It’s always another day Always another season Always another year I still feel the way i felt I’m still unclear About how it all went down How it all crashed and burnt without a sound

13 Years Later
I swear to god I'm sorry My heart breaks to the sound of yours I'll remember you in 2 months I'll miss you in 20 years I know it sounds as if I'm martyring myself I know it doesn't matter that I shed a tear You're more broken than I But my dear, you'll repair stronger than I Be a better person than I Theres always a downward spiral Until you hit the ground and put yourself back on your feet I'll always love you As much as you don't understand You were my best friend, my lover, my confidant, my world, my future husband, my future father to my children I'm sorry things ended this way Eight years not wasted, but held dear I'm sure you'll find another Who will always cherish you See your worth I hope the best for you It's what you deserve He might not love me He might not care that I long for him But to sit there and pretend it's only you on my mind Dear, it's such a sin I'll be in the past Wondering what could've been What would've become of us If I hadn't fallen for him

Sincerely, Me
I wanted you to notice how I felt So I destroyed myself To put myself back together To turn into somebody you’d like

My friends have friends Friends they turn to Friends that turn to them My friends have a best friend Friends that hang out all night Friends that laugh until their last breath My friends have friends So where does that leave me? *Lonely and empty Envious and yearning Jealousy churning* My friends have friends My friends dont need me

My Friends
Try as I might, I cannot refer to you with anyother title For you had unfortunately raised me You stood there Unaware, as my childhood grazed me I never saw it coming You never asked for me I never wanted this to happen For you to cry over me I thought you'd be glad You got what you wanted Me out of your life But like a ghost I still haunted Your memories of regret Your memories of pride All those nights crying We shamelessly lie I'm sorry you find your sanity in a bottle of wine I'm sorry I find mine in a bottle that was prescribed We both need our peace We both need our distance If it helps you to know I'd love you to listen About how I still care, deep in my heart I'm sorry that our minds Tore us apart

Dear Mom,
With everything I do I will have the doubt in my mind That the things I am doing Are just to fill time My empty accomplishments My empty wall of fame My empty heart beating My empty full name I lie awake tired I lie here distressed I lie here, my mind racing My whole life a mess I'm counting the hours I'm counting the days Until I can give up This timeless charade Dear god I'm not happy Dear god I'm a fraud Dear god are you listening? Dear god, I've wrote you all along When will this be over? When will I feel full? When will my life become everything everyone said it would? When will I feel sure? Dear god if you're listening Dear god hear my plea Dear god I'm begging you Why won't you answer me?

Dear ***
I  know how much you never wanted me You don't know that I know Or maybe you do and that's why you're so distant As much as I want to I could never fix it It hurts to think that you favor them more That they're yours and pure, through marriage even more I was a surprise, a mistake; unexpected 21 years later, a relationship formed and weary Straining and wearing thin Maybe I'll never know what it's like to be close Maybe I'll never see what a healthy relationship is You'll always be a hero to me I'll always be your greatest sin

Hey Dad,
It came down Like a tidal wave Grasping towards the surface I couldn't reach Here I was On the train Hiding my face so patrons couldn't see I was weak I was alone I was tired I was bleak I was me He wanted to know what was wrong Why the tears I told him "It's been like this, like this for years" I say "I hate my life" at least twice a day "I always hope it's jokingly" I say But it isn't I mean it, it's meant for every second My family is aloof My friends are in the past Where I can't reach them I wear their memories like a cast "I gave my all" I exclaimed All is what they took They left what they gained My life's heading nowhere And it's getting there fast 21 years old And all I can focus on is my past Where am I going? Why am I doing all of this? I wish I knew I wouldn't be ashamed to exist One life to live And this is how I'm living mine? Time is all I've got And I've got none at the same time If it's all the same I don't want to **** myself I don't want to die But what's the point of living If you're dead inside?
