i wish i could look at myself in the mirror again
without seeing guilt
regret
sorrow

all of the things you could take away,
at least for a little while.

i miss you
dead inside

caressing warmth
godly comfort
self security ;
what you never failed to supply me overwhelmingly with.

tormenting panic
constant worry
plaguing stress ;
all i had to give back to you.

i still love you as much
as if it's worth anything

a note for you
silas Sep 2014
so i've known you for well over a month now
and i still love you as much
as i did before, if not more.
i really love you.
your ex-bestfriend told me some stories
about you taking things too far
"like you always do"
and i'm not sure if i should believe that
i suppose denial is a stage of loving someone as much as i do you,
because what's good for both of us?
it feels like you do just fine,
going without talking to me
and i can't breathe,
i miss you,
i miss you,
i miss you,
every **** second of the minute,
every minute of the hour,
every hour of the day,
every day of the week.
but you know what?
i don't know what to do anymore.
what is there to do?
out of simple fear of being alone.
i remember waking up that morning
and talking to you,
almost being late to life
but you know
it was worth it
i didn't feel like i was being shoved into a hole
and i'm so grateful that conversation happened,
you know?
otherwise, i would have killed myself
a long time ago.
look,
i'm not letting go anytime soon
i'm tired of this routine
me falling in love,
me getting attached,
me being left, me being heartbroken.
it runs you down,
and i'm so sick of it.
i'm not sure if you realise
but you mean literally everything to me
and as time goes by,
you'll still be the only one on my mind

i still remember
silas Aug 2014
i still remember
your intoxicating scent
masked coldly in the mist of regret

i still remember
your alluring eyes
charred red, like the dying sunset

seven months
and i still can't forget

maybe having my heart broken by you
wouldn't be so bad
i just wish i could reset

maybe this is what love is
silas Aug 2014
behind the locked door
in a steamy cloud of mist
i drag my finger down the mirror
writing your name
over and over
inconsistent, misshaped words
humidity conquering my breath,
making it feel impossible to respire
yet i do nothing to help myself

maybe i'll die in here.

in that moment
i felt nothing
only
utterly
pathetic

worry
silas Aug 2014
it seems like all i ever do is worry
worry this, worry that
whether it be
the important assignment due in a few hours
forgetting to buy groceries
worrying that tomorrow, you may not love me anymore
perhaps, one day,
i won't need to

a poem for b.k.
silas Aug 2014
sometimes
i find it hard to believe
that at one point in my life
i was unaware of your existence.
i didn't know that you could see darkness
only not during the day
i didn't know that you could see kindness
only not from those who love you
and sadly,
i didn't know that you could see beauty
only not in yourself

my apologies for the initials
