I am more than what you see
I am more than what you read
More than just a memory or moment
I am human flesh and bones with a heart deeper than the ocean, yet no
I will not let you in
My heart is not a garden,
for you to take a walk in
I have died so many times
while you were gone
The world has ended every night
you didn't come back

But I am more than that
I am standing on my feet again
Holding my dreams and hopes
in each hand
Because not even the world ending will stop me
Trust me
I am more than that
I am enough

I picked flowers, for her
Dropped my dreams, for her
Never questioned why and where
I went along, with her
Over time you see that the look in her eyes never changed
It's been dark and ashy, don't remember the last time she smiled
I apologize every night, wondering if it's something that I did that got her upset
She says no but he hasn't spoken to me in years
Not one honest word
The lies come out of her mouth
like it's nothing
Like I'm nothing
The I love you's are the worst,
You don't look me in the eyes anymore

Mother, I love you
While you probably can't even tell my eye color

Am I really a poet,
If all I ever write about,
Is you?
Feeling insecure today.

You
there’s a
thorn
stuck inside
my chest,
it throbs in pain
every ****
time when
someone says
your name

About you.

They told me about you
They told me you'd hurt me
They told me you'd break my heart
They told me to not fall for you
But what they didn't tell me was why 
I had grown curious as to why no one seemed to like you . As if you'd made a big mistake and everyone seemed to spite you
But you ... knew what to say and maybe that was the problem .... maybe you knew what to say and you got me to fall for someone like you .. someone like you that completely broke me and I should have listened but a part of me only saw the potential in you and it broke me ...somebody so broken .destroyed .. empty ....
But you had your way of doing the same and you made me sane again for a while we were happy ... for a while ...
You then took your anger out on me and I saw what they meant by when they said you'd hurt me
You were still in love with her ..
She broke you and you broke others but I don't blame you. . I can't blame you.  
You didn't mean it .. in fact I should have seen it coming ..
Dont know who this is about...

Nothing that I have is mine anymore,
He has taken everything.
From the air that I breathe to the words I write down,
He,
Stole them.
I have been looking for the words
to describe this feeling for 26 days
and they didn't come to me until
you left me to be with her.
I told you that I wanted you to be
happy, and god do I wish that were true.
I was suppose to be your happy.
It was suppose to be me.
I made myself vulnerable to you
and you chose her.
and I thought to myself,
"I cant wait to find someone
who loves me unconditionally
for who I am as a person"
and I thought I found that in you
until you left my home
to go be with her at yours.

i miss him
           not like
                  when you lose someone close to you  
but like
       when the last petal falls from the last rose
                  when you know spring is over
                              and you wished you'd played in the rain a little more
