She was the girl that loved to draw at night
All her drawings were out of sight
She was most artistic at night in the bathroom
The more she drew, the less space she had, it was going to run out very soon
She kept a secret that no one knew
Not telling anyone, her work grew
Her drawings were like no other, no paper or pen
Shes been drawing since she was ten
Before her friend can leave, he asked if she was ok
That's when she broke down and told him to stay
They sat on the bridge watching the passing cars
She rolled up her sleeves and showed him her scars
regretting her decision, crying not knowing what to say or do
Then he rolled up his sleeves and whispered "Its ok..I draw too"
You are not alone, someone is going through the same thing as you or even worse.
My work but got the idea from another author and used one of their sentences
A lot of people have silent cries and are quietly asking for help
I miss the "we" we were before there was just me

I.miss.us
Even if I move on
I can never stop loving you
I can never forget you
Even if I'm with someone else in the future
you will be in the back of my mind
but locked up in a box titled "happy memories"
Which they should be called "lost memories"
Even though your lost now
you still wonder in the past
and sometimes I cant help to take a step back
Because it brings me satisfaction just thinking about you
Even though they always tell me to move forward
but sometimes I can't help it
Even though I'm single now my heart is still taken by you
I can be with someone else
But I would still be loving you
Not finished but yeah
While he "moved on"
his new girlfriend wanted to go through his library and read his books
but she started to realize that all his books were about me
My work and another authors work combined
I ask you
"are you trying to fall out of love with me?"
You said
"no I'm not trying to fall out of love with you"
Then I asked you
"wait do you want to?"
Then you said
"no I don't to, I'm just living life as it does and seeing what happens."
Finally I said
"but maybe during that time you might stop
He stood speechless
I don't want you to be the story I tell my future daughter while shes crying over a heart break.
Never fall in love with a poet
for their words are sometimes lies
on occasions they're a shield
on occasions a disguise

They will take you on a journey
upon which they bare their soul
in a bid to ease your burdens
in a bid to make you whole

But in every word they choose
for the stories that they tell
lies a little piece of heaven
and a little piece of hell

Tormented souls we poets are
sometimes quite broken and despaired
in search of lost expressions
missed by others who once cared

Never fall in love with a poet
unless you're prepared to share their pain
to hold them close on the darkest nights
over and again
