Usually I lie
Whenever I say I'm fine
Except not right now
Hmm.
Surprisingly.
I feel okay
Of course, I know it's not going to last,
but I'll enjoy it while I can.
I can breathe.

I recognize that this haiku ***** but I felt the need to express the fact that I'm okay because it doesn't happen very often and I figured I should actually put it in a poem format instead of a short rant
I've been feeling so alone
And so lost
As if I was trapped in the dark forest of my mind
Not knowing which way is out
And which way is into further isolation
And than I walked
And walked
With music playing in my ears
Alone
But I wasn't lonely
I was free
And I wished that I could just walk forever
Not away from anything
Not to anything
Just walking
forever
Partially metaphoric, partially literal. Idk
I am a logophile. A lover of words.
I love words. Language. The way sentences can be constructed and broken down. How you can persuade, intimidate, bribe, barter, bully, influence, tempt, and so on. I love poetry. Slang. Lyrics. Quotes. Phrases. I love the pronunciation of words. The way we can read between the lines. How we can distinguish "Okay" from "ok." from "Kay:)" from "k.". How some words can send shivers down your spine, be it from how they're worded to how they're spoken to who spoke them to what meaning it holds. I love the quiver of the lip when someone says something that hurts. The stammer, the raw emotion, the shake in their voice, the tears that swell up in their eyes.

And I love words even more
when they come from your mouth.
I planned it all out
    Carefully manipulated
       Every tiny detail
           As if I thought
               For those few seconds
                   That I could script life
                        I was going to tell you
                           I had it all figured out
                             But when life happens It never happens the way you wish.
    Your laughter seemed off
        Your smiles struggled
            As if you were clinging
                To a past happiness
                     Or trying for us or you
                         To act like everything
                               Was fine
And so I knew that my seemingly
   Unimportant piece of news
       Would knock you from
            Your carefully placed
                Pedestals, and that I could
                    Not bear to see
                        So since I couldn't
                           Find the courage.
                               To tell you in person
                                   I wrote it in a poem
I had a relapse, it was only two days
But I felt so hollow, so empty
And everything seemed to hit me
Like a train that had been delayed
I realized how far apart we really are
We said that it wouldn't change us
But I know that isn't true
We will always be friends but things are different now. And just the other day. In the hall I met his eyes and all I wanted to do was turn to you and cry
But then I realized I have gone so far, that no longer can I turn to you and hug you, unless it's from afar. So I had a two day relapse, it's run its corse and gone, and even though it's over now, if you know what I mean, the long sleeves are on.
All I can say is I'm sorry, I'm sorry I did it, I'm sorry if I hurt you by telling you, I'm sorry I couldn't tell you. But please don't be sorry back.
I should have been better
I should have saved you
I don't know what kind of friend I am
I'm sorry
This is the second time I've failed you
And the fourth time I've failed as a friend
my friends keep hurting themselves and it is all my fault and I just want them to be okay because I love them like sisters and it's so horrible and no one deserves the pain they have less than them

Just read Lovecraft's most recent "poems"
and started laughing my *** off.
I think I'm going crazy XD
I'm SOOOOO HAPPY that he would take the time
to write poems about me,
and think about me!
I'm honored, sir, truly honored, that you would
take the time to remind me of what I am,
a, "Creep who loves is NOT a dove"

Bravo, Lovecraft!
And I thank you for your idiocy,
your mean words,
and reminding me that I ****,
cause I do, I know. :)

Love,
the Creep that does not love you.

PS. Love your profile pic and background pic, where'd you get them?
The Creep Who Loves You ( only if you 'like' her first )
by LoveCraft

The Creep who loved you
Only loved herself,
Writes incessantly, drollest Drek
Wants it all to be celebrated,
Unfortunately she never read,
ANYTHING
EVER
deep or substantial,
She is a TROLL!

She's a fluffer, she's a troll, she is vacuous - she NEEDS a dictionary
AND a thesaurus

Creep
There once was a sweet boy
that lived in a dark town.

There once was a corrupted girl
that lived in a bright town.

There once was a day,
the corrupted girl escaped
this too cheery,
too vivacious town
to go fathom the overcast town.

There, she met him.
The night light in the dark,
struggling to stay lit in the depths of hell.

He lit her up like the 4th of July,
brought her new hope, new goals, new strengths,
reminded her what living was.

She swept him off his feet,
brought him back to where he belonged:
Elysium.

It was there,
that she hoped he would always remember
that she loved him
even more than he could ever imagine.

As long as he knew this,
she would be
*okay.
*shrugs* i was greatly moved by his poem, so i wrote a "response" to it... hope he doesn't mind ^^"

et monsieur right? je t'aime. <3

are you gonna be my girl
by jet
You are my snow
White reaching me
In my winter
Beautiful falling
Touching me all over
But you are the one
Melting me
My thoughts of you
Abundant as these
Crystalline flakes
All about me
Filling my heart
People move past you
Everyday ignoring
While I crouch
And hold your pieces
Up to my heart
Beating in my chest
Warmed by the chill
You are my frost
Coating me
Making me numb
Yet feel so deeply
Covered in your
Glistening in the
Sunshine
Moonlight
Daytime
Dark night
You are my snow
Reaching far to me
In my winter
I love you.
Now that I've said it, I won't stop:
❄ I love you.
