you'll show up
today
and become the man
you promised to be

Painless?

let

Love her
larissa Sep 2017
Here i am.
In front of you; me.
I am a person, and i am
so far away from ordinary.
I have problems, i feel things,
sometimes maybe too deeply than
they should be felt, but that's how i am.
People get close, really close, and then boom.
They're gone, just like a quick snap of the fingers.
We used to be close, but you left and i stayed to break.
My heart aches for your attention, for your precious love.
But i can't make you want me, or crave me in such ways.
Its been a while since we've last spoken and i miss you.
I see you sometimes, and when i do, it's like fresh air.
But it's strange too, because my eyes look for you,
and when you don't see the person that you love
it becomes easy to realize that you're empty.
You no longer care to look for me anymore
and spend your days looking for her.
So if had courage to tell you words.
I would tell you that, if she makes you happy,
love her.

Hands
larissa Sep 2017
here are the hands that held me.

from the moment i began to break

to the second i was healed.



here are the hands that hug me.

when all my hope is gone

and i am left to breathe.



here are the hands that let me.

touch the lives of those around me

and love myself in return.

— The End —
