Pain.
Hurt.
I think I’m afraid of it.
Afraid to feel so strongly for someone again because hell,
I know how it’ll end up.
Me, broken, bleeding on the ground
my heart ripped out and ****** on the floor.
That’s how it always ends, isn't it?
Suffering.
That unbearable ache in your chest that makes you wish you could rip your heart out.
If only it weren’t already torn to shreds
by the only person you trusted
to hold it together.
- torn apart

someone once told me
you never forget your first love
you always love them
maybe in some strange twisted way
your brain forgetting
all the pain they caused
you love them
and i think they were right
because in a way
i love you
and i think i always will
for some nonsensical reason
i will never see the world
the same because of you
and sometimes i wish
i could change that
erase you from my thoughts
as you distort them
with your unwavering power
but then i remember
i wouldn’t want it any other way
you have shaped me
into the person i am today
and because of that
and i wouldn’t change a thing
- i'll never forget you

you came back
a fresh start
a new beginning
taking me
out of the dark
and into the light
so i can heal
from what you
left me as
petals wilted
leaves browned
wounds now mending
let me learn
so i can grow
once more
take me
somewhere i belong
where i can bloom
as the flowers do
with pretty petals
green leaves
full of life
a new beginning
a fresh start
that’s what you’ve given me
- bloom

when i think of you
you are now no more than a
stranger i once knew
a stranger
that broke my heart
and didn’t care
that what you left behind
wasn’t me anymore
a stranger
that stitched themself
into my life
just to rip themself
out of it
without warning
a stranger
i once loved
with all my heart
that never gave
anything back
to me
but silence
a stranger
i once thought i knew
but realized
too late
i didn’t recognize
who was
in front of me
when i think of you
you are a stranger
and maybe that’s
how it’s supposed to be
but i find myself
missing you
even though
you are a stranger
even though
you hurt me
more than anyone
ever has before
even though
you turned me
into someone
i don’t recognize
in the mirror anymore
even though
i am now a stranger
to myself
i am caught
in your web
unable to escape
from your grasp,
stranger
--- i knew you once (and it was nice)

air can no longer reach my lips
as i try to remind myself
what it’s like to be in love
i can’t remember what it feels like
to have kisses down your neck
or to exchange loving smiles
with someone you want to spend
every waking hour with
unable to withstand
the ache of being apart
so i cut off my oxygen
hoping it will remind me
of the feeling
of my breath catching
as we locked eyes
i am depriving myself
of the air i need to survive
to finally remind me
of the pain you caused
choking the life out of me
that i interpreted as love
but now i realize
that was never really love
i never had the moments
of loving smiles
and kisses on cheeks
i crave so deeply
so i don’t know why
i keep searching
hurting myself
trying to find something
i never will
knowing i’m looking for
memories of nothing
just dreams
created by my mind
to save me the pain
of never really living them
--- (i’m so sick of this) fake love

you broke me
letting me believe
we would last forever
knowing **** right
that was never your plan
that you would leave me
to waste away
into nothing
and you did
- hurt.

today i think of you
and i’m okay
i don’t miss you
but more so the idea of you
your kisses on my lips
and hands in my hair
late messages of “i love you”
that i never really believed
i want to go back to that
to love filled stares
and intertwined fingers
but with someone
that when they say “i love you”
i believe them

it is not your words
that pierce my heart
like a bullet
but the absence of them
they leave me broken
shattered into pieces
withering away
unable to be put back together

confusion plagues my mind
distorting my thoughts
into a jumbled mess
making it impossible
to think about anything
but you

validation
i crave it like a drug
i am an addict
searching for my next high
through your words
that tell me i am enough
for i cannot tell myself
that i am worthy
