A brunette girl in love
A brunette boy thought
He thought he loved her
She thought so too
That all changed When he broke her heart
He changed the way she talked
He changed the way she walked
He changed the way she thought
She thinks differently.
She doesn't believe anything

She just misses him
He could care less
She told her friends that she was a mess
Her friends said she'd be okay
She would never believe them anyway

She thinks of him everyday
Locking eyes is their only way

She doesn't feel anything but hurt anymore
He feels mixture if emotions, but none for her
She wishes this would change, but it never will

She wishes she could be over him
Like he was her, ever so long ago

A brunette girl in love
A brunette boy dying inside
Thinks he loves her but doesnt
Think she loves him and does

He was her prize and she was his phase. She cried her eyes out hoping he'd be okay, when in reality he felt nothing.

She soon became numb to all feelings and her friends pushed him to be friends with her again  

She wanted it and he never tried.

She wanted just one more chance and he wouldn't give it to her.

She tried to think of a way to talk to him, but never did.

She wanted his jacket and he wanted her out of his life.

All she does is feel numb and live life acting like she feels like everyone else.

Of all of the bad decisions
I've made in my life
Loving you was my favorite.

Today I touched your hands for the first time in months
They were cold
You said winter was quickly approaching
I laughed
Because winter is something California doesn't know too well
But I do
I know the below zero temperatures
How we spent those nights huddled together underneath your sheets
When your breath was the only thing in the world that could keep me warm
I kept my socks on
I always did
You said it looked silly
But you didn't mind
I think we fought most when it was chilly outside
The weather being both a catalyst for an argument
And an excuse for me to spend the night
I spent so many with you that I lost track

Today I wondered where the time went
And gave up looking when I couldn't find it
I thought about how I used to tuck my secrets into your palms
For you to keep safe
I know you probably still have them
Wedged between your knuckles
Blue from the weather
And the lack of circulation
You told me you hated it
But the color of your skin when it is cold outside is my favorite
Everything about you has always been my favorite

Today I was next to you
But tomorrow I wont be
And soon enough I will be back on the other side of the country
I can't help but hope that you will still think about me
When you are stuck in the snow and the wind blows against your flushed cheeks
I hope you think about my hands cupping your face
And how they would shake
Just to be able to hold you there
I would risk shivering for your comfort anyday

I never told you this
But you are the only warmth I have ever known that doesn't burn at the touch
You are the only fireplace that I can lay next to without catching flame
You are the only summer that exists even in the middle of a Chicago winter
Yours is the only jacket I will ever accept when I forget my own
You are my warmth
So I am going to keep you close
For as long as I possibly
I am going to keep you close
As long as you want me to,
As long as you let me.

One day
Happiness is going to come.
And I know it won't end well.
Either my depression won't let me answer the door.
My anxiety will make it so uncomfortable, it will want to leave.
Not that I'd have anywhere to put it.
Oh bother.
"Well she loves you, yeah she says that she loves you
You're faithful, she says "Yeah I'm faithful too" "

I'm so full of myself.
And I hate myself.
And I don't know why I assume everything is about me.
And I don't know why I make everything about me.
Love me.

I'll weave your love notes into a noose for two.
It will probably have to just be two separate nooses.
I googled "couples noose"
And apparently it's not a thing.
Love me.

I don't know
My stomach is in knots tonight
And I need someone to help untie them.
And kiss my forehead
Or something.
Please love me.
I'm not desperate, I'm drunk.
I'm shivvering and very upset and very cute.
Love me.
