She apologized for
the embers he left
in her mind

and for every singed lock of hair
She dropped to her knees
and begged for forgiveness

She said sorry
for protecting the tatters
of her heart

For the shaking earthquake
her hands had become
and for wrapping her arms
tightly around her torso

She regretted trying to hold
her crumbling frame together
When he was not finished with her yet

I don't just want a one time date,
I don't only want a perk on your lips,
I don't just want a formal dance,
I don't only want a warm bear hug,
Nor a walk down the gardens,
Nor a one nighter.

I want someone to hold in my arms,
I want someone who makes me lose control,
Someone who would embrace my imperfections,
I know it's hard and tricky,
But I just want someone to keep.
To him,
My midnight dreamer, my only thoughts, my favourite heartbreaker.

Never
Will you ever
Have me back
But I know you wish you did
I was your first everything
I showed you
What love was about
I taught you pain
And ache as well
But you know I was well **** worth it
And even though you act
As if you are over me
Deep down
You know good as ******* aren't
You may kiss her lips
And hold her waist
But don't dare deny
You wish it was me every time
"do you have anything to say to me?"

why don't you love me?

why aren't i good enough for you?

what did i do to you?

why did you abandon me?

you've never actually loved me like you loved him

was there ever a time i didn't disappoint you?

i wish i didn't need you but i do

i love you

i wish you knew how much you mean to me

why do you want to fix me so **** badly?

sometimes i feel like a stranger in this house

i know you regret me
i regret me

i don't know if i can forgive you
i hope i can

will i ever feel like when i was eight
when you'd give me piggy-back rides and smiles?

i miss you

i'm sorry i'm not the daughter you want,
nor will i probably ever be

why don't you ever let me explain myself?

why is everything my fault?

will this barrier between us ever break?


"no."

(h.l.)
if you guys are confused the opening line is the mother speaking to the daughter, the italics is everything the daughter wanted to say back, the ending statement is what the daughter ends up saying.

I don't write
poetry,
I write little pieces
of my heart,
hoping
they will
*touch yours
If
If I were to see you,
I don't think I could say a word
For I'd be much to captivated
And every phrase would be misheard

If I were to touch you,
I think I just may faint
For your skin is a canvas
That my fingers yearn to paint

If I were to kiss you,
My lips would catch on fire
For my body and my heart are scared
Of the love that may transpire

If I were to lose you,
I would simply fall apart
For you know the truest me
Darling, you've stolen my whole heart.
