You tell yourself every day "tomorrow, he'll love me"
But tomorrow's a relative term
my eyes are raw
and sting
from the constant blotting
of deep
and soulful
resurrections of emotions,

perhaps I would feel better
If I stopped trying to hide them.
Not so long ago
in this land of Poetry
you see

I was Used, Abused
and Misused
and like that wasn't  
enough

I was then Stripped, Ripped
and Flipped
Stomped, Cursed
and Kicked

And finally,
Finally when I thought
they were done with me

Well this ringleader,
Mr. So and So
His pride
must've been really sore
Not exactly sure why though
Anyway
He wasn't satisfied
Until he gave me more

Sometimes I have to remind myself to breathe.
In short.

What are these roads?
We've walked them before

Your love is a pain,

I wish to endure
The heart is but a
yawning wound, needs to be burned
out. See? There you go...
you already have the key to my phone, yet you'd deny me the pattern to your *own.
I am thinking
I am shrinking
I am freaking
I am normal

I am depressed
I am complexed
I am compressed
Is this normal?

I am tired
I am expired
I am undesired
This can’t be normal

Each letter I laid
Has its own little voice,

And together they sing
To be heard by yours

.
very anxious talking
