unraveling-you
I'm not a writer nor a poet, but here are my thoughts in words.
i'm sitting on my front porch with thoughts in my head slamming against my skull. constantly reminding me, "that i could never be the girl he needs or that i loved him more than he loved me." taking pills and pills just to forget you, isn't working anymore. suddenly, drowning my demons in drugs wasn't enough anymore.

it's 6 am i haven't gone to bed i'm stuck in this thought of you that i wish i didn't have. it's 6 am i'm on my roof gazing off into the sunrise. i can't compare you to the sun anymore because the sun gives me hope that everything will be alright. it's 6:30 am you are no longer my sun you are no longer what i hope for in life you are no longer in my thoughts.

you clipped my wings then asked why i didn't fly. you drowned me and asked me why i didn't survive. you broke me and asked me why i couldn't be the same. you told me you did those things for my own good. how can you possibly still tell me you love me after all the things you've done to me?

he poured poison down my throat and called it poetry. he tried to explain to me that our love was never real. he felt nothing at all when i was the one feeling everything. he told me to forgive him for ruining me. but all i knew is that i was his damaged goods, his non existing love, his poised poetry.

i never thought i’d find comfort in a voice. i never thought i'd find comfort in you.

I want to write but every time I write, it’s about you. And it hurts to write about you.

writing about you
it's really sad to know that you looked at me once the same way you look at her now. and it kills me to know that she is your happiness now.

he was my person, he was everything. he was the flowers that grew in the spring time but when he left, all i got stuck with were these roots sticking out the cracks in the cement.

i thought nothing hurt as much as hating yourself and then i fell in love with someone who didn't love me back and it was the most painful thing of all. maybe because he started seeing me the way i see myself.

people are not the rain or snow or autumn leaves they do not look pretty when they fall down. people are not the sunrise in the morning nor the sunset they do not look pretty when the day is starting or the day is ending. people are not meant to be romanticized because everyone is different, and people simply don't share the same story.
