Perhaps we may never meet again
or we will live next to each other
run into each other at the store
or live across the globe

Life always became messy and strange with us
on circumstances that never should have existed
yet there we were
enjoying what never should have happened

Maybe our time is done
or we're on a pause right now
but while you're away
playing house with another

I can reread stories we shared
moments that are mine to keep
Sensations I relived
to remind myself they happened
and that it was real

It black ink
our love never dies
and you never leave
but instead stay




like you promised you would
She believed that lie
that no one loved her but family
that everyone else was being nice
but didn't care

She believed that lie
when her boyfriend said "I love you"
for the first time
he was just being nice with her fragile heart

With a final breathe
she believed that lie
that no one cared
they were just being nice

But the line to view her
the silent screams
the aching hearts
and glass tears

those weren't a lie

They honored her like she was a hero
one who went to war over seas
when the battle she loss
was much closer to home

She believed the lie
when people said
"Oh you must have many friends"
"I don't have any friends, everyone is nice
but no one is my friend"
What if my heart was bruised
From being dropped so many times
By hands that forgot
It was fragile

What if my trust was broken
From those who took it for granted
And never listened
When I asked for understanding

What if my skin is scared
Not by purpose
But by accident instead
By something I can not control

What if my eyes do not see right
The uncertainty of the world
When vision fades
And all I can see is the darkness I think

Could you still love me
Or even let me be around
Even if friends
It would be nice not to be alone in this silence
Through the tears that fell
through her body shaking
Through the cuts bleeding out

she still held her head up
gave a smile
and said she was fine

Because she didn't want them to feel bad for her
I still look for you
despite the years it's been
beyond the time you last touched my skin
I still long for you

Looking for that spark we had in others
and coming up empty
because none will compare to you

I still miss you
and feel like I'm still crying in the rain
as you drove away

away from me
away from us
away from what could have been

so I hope
pray that one day you'll relise
that despite how you view yourself
that you are still loved

unconditionally
unchanged
everlasting

you still have my heart
and one day I hope we meet again
even if it is to see you one last time
A+T
I thought it would be easy
putting myself out there
hoping to find a spark

but when I actually do it
All I can think of
is you

the warmth of your hugs
the comfort I felt at your touch
The softness of your kisses

All of it
is you
and I'll I'm doing
is chasing the ghost

of what will never be
I am smart
I am beautiful
I am kind
I am healthy
I am fit
I am loved
I am amazing


and I feel like crap
