Love
Love-less- lacking love in both the secular and the divine way
Love- who needs it
Love- who craves it
Love- who poured her heart out on the side of the road
Love- who mustered up the courage to say how she felt
Love- who, despite what her so called friends would think, fell for you
Love- who cries at night just thinking about all the opportunities she had
Love

Wanting you would be a death wish but
I'd cross the river styx and look the devil in the eyes
just to know your every thought...

On the 7 ways to make your partner fall in love with you list one stuck out in my mind. "Stare into each other's eyes for four minutes without saying a word," it read. So here I sit, staring into the eyes of my reflection in the mirror hoping that maybe if I am able to stare long enough I will begin to love myself. I'll notice my favorite attributes and learn to love my flaws. However, within 30 seconds of locked eyes, my vision was blurred as I began to sob. Within those 30 seconds I came to the realization that I do not love myself and I'm finding it hard to believe that I ever will.

All of our awkward glances never seem to go unnoticed. In a city I barely knew, with people I barely knew, you made your move. At the time, I was nervous and worried about the gossip that would endure so I rejected your kiss and terribly regret it.

Now you seem to be unable to make eye contact except for that night we stayed up til 5 am talking about life

So maybe I'll just avoid your gaze so that maybe I can catch my breath and make a move myself but that was until I saw another girl's arms around your neck and wanted so badly someone's arms to be around mine, suffocating me.

No one will ever love me
No one will ever count the constellations of freckles on my body
No one will ever hold me close and whisper they love m e
No one will discover the galaxies hidden beneath years of heartache
No one will ever beg me to stay
No one will ever love me
