Afraid
I want to pull away from this. From you. I want to just stop and act like we never got close. I want to act like you never became my rock. I want to pretend like you don't know how to make me smile / or laugh when I don't want to. I want to do this because I am afraid. Afraid of falling in love with you even when I know you would never feel the same in return. Afraid to get my heart broken. Afraid to once again get hurt. Afraid to put my faith in someone else. I am so afraid.

I feel the world closing in, / My heart pounding rapidly like rain drops on a windowpane, / As I struggle for breath.

Anxious Thoughts
I feel like I am being pushed away by those I want to be near the most. Slowly but surely. No one really needs me. They don't want me. Their lives won't be any different when I am no longer in them. I will be just that girl who used to bother them. I am just a side note. An afterthought. I am meant to be alone.

Awkward
I have gotten so used to letting myself down, / And getting let down, / That it doesn't surprise me,

Bouquet of Flowers
There was a time where you meant so much, / Just like a fresh bouquet of flowers. / Now my memory of you falls apart at one touch,

Boy meets girl, / Girl meets boy. / A friendship formed,

Breaking a Habit
I still expect your name to pop up in my open Facebook tab. / A message has been sent from so and so, / Maybe in reply to me,
