Out with the old and in with the ....new?

After the last one we just kinda gave up, as a whole generation of people finding their one and only.
Both sides spilling poison into the water making each person hurt like we do inside.
Cheating on eachother because if it happened to us, why cant it happen to them.
Flirting with new people online because its harmless fun, I didnt make my significant other go to sleep this early and NOT give me any attention.
Sleeping with every person out there because self empowerment and being a ***** (both sides) merged into being the same thing instead of having decency and self respect.

I miss your face like hell

I've had a lot of first kisses since you
None have shot stars to the moon
Fireworks when I close my eyes
Shivers walking down my spine
None other than you.
Too much time has passed
I miss your face like hell
I guess we are going to better places
Move on, we might as well.
I see your eyes in other faces
I miss your face like hell.

I've never known
how to end these poems
when you're the subject..
because to me it isn't over.

Blue eyes and fall skys

The pain creeps on, till I can't sleep
It lingers inside of me deep
Watching and waiting, anxiety builds steep.

Another one bites the dust, love or lust?
Broken friendship and mistrust
Anger builds and fills me with disgust.

Falling for you, nothing I could do
It's going to be slow, letting you go
You planting that kiss, I dreamt it pure bliss
Hope you can wise up, but till then good luck.

The curse of YOU

Since you, I have had no one.
The girls have yet to come close to the fire you left smoldering in your wake.

There was this one girl tho,
blonde, bombshell and out of my league.
Reminded me of Annabelle Lee
and her kingdom by the sea.
She just happened to be
The best friend of the girl I was dating.
Oh the misery, the jealousy and debating.
Two worlds torn, friendship and loving.
Here I sit silent and suffering
She could be what lifts the curse
But I fear now, I've made everything much worse...

When to be loved

In the bathroom stall crying, wiping away tears
It will be alright you say
Behind the closet door as distant shouting continues
It will be alright you say
Touching hands on the trampoline star gazing
It will be alright you say
Another night covering up bruises instead of a ER visit
It will be alright you say
Putting your heart to someone after all that pain...
It will be alright... you say.

Happy birthday regret.

How do I say I'm sad that the one day that's supposed to be for me, is the one day I feel the most alone. That I want to be more noticed by one and yet invisible by the rest...

How do I say that I made great choices in life but in love I'm so poor, that when the after life hits none of the riches I've made could equal to the loving memories I could tr make with me.

How do I say I love the way you look at me and we haven't even met, I love the way you make me feel warm yet we have never touched, how do I say hello when you have yet to hear me...

Remindher

Shadow shifting in the rain
Slowly driving me insane
Loneliness is killing me
Happiness couldn't set me free
Painful beatings from a lover
Stuck till I can find another
Bruises covered in makeup
Flinching, till I give a quick ****
Writing in my only safe corner
Saving my little ones from such horror
Hide quick hes back home
Gotta pretend this is a loving home...
