We pray every night,
Hoping to wake up in the morning.
We carry out the lives we despise.
We work the jobs we never wanted.
We love those who  don't  love back.
We have a nostalgia for a home we never visited.
Yet, we pray every night,
Hoping to wake up in the morning.
Old poem. I decided to share.

I can't stop writing about you
Ughh its really annoying.
Because every time you pop into my mind
My whole mood changes.

I get soo angry.
Right now I'm angry writing this poem.
I know I should be wishing you happiness
And good fortune to come your way.

I should,
but i won't.
I know that's really selfish of me
But i don't care.

I want you to feel what i felt.
I want you feel what its like to be heartbroken.
I want you feel Whats like to feel empty.
I want you to feel so unhappy
That you cant make it throughout the day
Without breaking down.

I hope she makes you feel this way.
I didnt know how to end it.

I was going through my gallery today and i came across a photo of you.
I sat there and stared trying to remember all the good times we shared.
Like that time we were on face time and your mom came
and she was asking me what did i do to her son ,
because thats the happiest she've seen you in a long time.

Or that time we went out to the movies and talked until the show was over
Just enjoying each other's company.
What happened us ?
I remember you telling me that i meant the world to you.
But when your world was crumbling down
you were no where to be found to pick up the pieces.

You were the one always talking about not giving up
and trying to make things work when times got hard.
You're such a hypocrite .
Its funny because you were the one that left and gave up on us.
Im still trying to put my feelings into words, but im not doing a very good job

someone
you created us, humans, one after the other trying to perfect the creation you defined as imperfect. you thought of this as a way to show us that your power holds no limitations. flawed species; and alone, we have created a civilization. we live to create a more damaged environment for us to die in. 

and i was destructive. an emptiness so vast took hold of my being and no one i encountered could rid me of it. no one could make me feel.

until i knew of her existence, or lack there of. and now every atom in my fragile body lusts over every cell her celestial figure withholds. i unconcsiously cannot stop wanting her, because my heart pumps desire into my system rather than blood and no ***** that makes me up can function without her. 

i've always felt dead inside..i've always felt that my days were of no purpose, until i met her, and i could ask for no bigger purpose than to love her. 

she awakened my soul; the soul that was burried so deep in that i misconceived dislocation with it's nonexistence.

i never was interested in astronomy but i've always loved the idea of everything that exists beyond this earth. i speak of her beauty, and god, i can't help but compare her to the galaxies. i know the stars don't hear me, but that doesn't limit me. sometimes i wonder if they do because everytime her name rolls off my tounge, i can see them flicker. i think it's because they're in awe. they never saw someone feel so much for someone else before, and they never heard of someone as beautiful as her; not in centuries past and definitely not for centuries to come. her eyes hold universes within them and i want to study her instead. i'm fascinated with every detail there's to her. i never held interest in anyone before her and no one after her could measure up. she's everything everyone wants to be, but nothing anyone can be; because she's the perfect you were aiming for. isn't she?

she taught my lungs how to breathe.
"and i'm so glad i held onto my life long enough for her to be in it. -@whorefrost" and although the weight of this life is heavy on my chest, it's worth it. loving her is worth it.

i've been asked to describe art, and every thought in my head screamed her name louder than the other wanting to be heard. but she's more than just art, she's reason. 

she's my reason.

i see her, and i believe.
i believe in you.
I hate how you broke me down
Only to build me up
Just so you could break me down once again

I hate how you convinced me to open up to you when I was shy
Only to give you what you wanted from me
And then tell me to be ashamed for being so exposed

I hate how you would ask me what’s wrong
Only to pretend to listen as I would cry
And then tell me off for thinking I have it harder than others

I hate how you would tell me you loved me
Only for me to find out that you have another lover
And then to get angry with me when I would try to move on

I hate how I wasted my time loving you unconditionally
In hopes that you would love me too
Only to realize after eight months that you don’t deserve me
