This Way & That!
VinceV 17h
September
We fall in love
You're all I need.

Five months pass
We fall apart
What was it all for?

Just take me back
I keep on hearin' things
Your voice calls to me, asleep
Repeating your words
Or phrases of our own

I sleep
We go this way
I awake
We go that way
Sometimes I'm it
And other times not

If only it wasn't this way and that
When we were together
VinceV 17h
I drift into consciousness one hour before noon
Worthless sack of ****
Scrolling for anything to make me happy
Nothing will today.

One hour later, I take a thirty minute shower
Pathetic and alone
I made coffee for after my shower so it wasn't too hot
There is that at least

I start thinking about you endlessly, longing for us again
What we could have been
And even after you came back to me with an ever beating heart
I still told you no.

It is now the afternoon, I am now getting my first cavity filled
They did not numb me
It was too small for that, I was told it was probably just genetic
There is that at least

I now wait for to go hang out with friends
Something needed now
Because as I wait, you infiltrate my mind, the regret of letting you go
I can't help but cry.

After hours upon hours of weeping, I arrive at my friend's house
Nothing too special
We just sit around and eat and goof around
There is that at least

And while I continue to be with friends
You infest my thoughts
Only instead of feeling loneliness and regret
I simply feel sad.

It may not be much
But it is better than before
So there is that at least
VinceV 18h
We both told each other it was the end
It’s what both told ourselves
We were to part at this crossroads
Until you came back

But when you came back with open arms
And hope gleaming from your eyes
I stuck true to me
And told you I just saw you as a friend

So we moved on
And every day
My heart breaks more and more
And I wish I could take it all back

At least until tomorrow morning.

— The End —
