fingers down my back
*** too fat
you like my thighs
and my lips
and my little quirks
i can be as silly as i want
and i love it
you're like him
without the abuse
am i allowed to say that?
i like him
And this.
This is what
it could
be like.


                                                                                                   And this.
                                                                                              This is what
                                                                                                    it almost
                                                                                                    was like.

I feel like I'm living in a house
That has already been packed up.
Displaced things.
Confusing mazes.
Unlabeled boxes,
But never unable to find the *****.

I'm too powerful to be open.
It's not secrets,
It's survival.

I can feel my tears
Rolling down my cheeks
I can feel my hands
Trembling like the drums
I can feel my heart
Beating as it fall apart
I can feel my head
Aching as you fade
Not away from me
But away from all the memories we shared

I saw the cuts
My reflection on the blood
They turned into scars
A symbol of your personal war
But believe it or not
You were still beautiful

I saw you crying
I knew the reason why
I witnessed those tears dry
And I let you rest on my shoulder
But despite your dark side
You were still beautiful

You pushed people away
Your heart punctured with thorns
The people you associate with is limited
I am rarely a part of that circle
But the fact that you do indeed feel these things
That makes you beautiful

Parallel lines tell the story of how you and I never met.

A poem is never finished
A word to be added
Or subtracted
Or changed
Or

Forgotten

Or with the loving grace of god
A poem is never finished
Just found
And appreciated
And understood
And

Remembered

A poem is never finished
If someone finds it
And has a new interpretation
A new meaning
New feelings
To take from it
Maybe 2 minutes to write

And so she wrote about
the most exquisite pain
he caused;
the way he said 'i love you'
the way he kissed her
and then a bit later on,
the way he left with a simple 'sorry'

She wrote about every tears
that has been shed
and yet she wondered,
was it all that easy
was it worth it
was he worth it?

She told the world about him
She turned him into a poetry
And she wrote wholeheartedly
Hoping someone could understand
How cruel he was to break her

But deep inside, she wanted him
to read it out loudly
and finally find his way back to her
and she wanted to hear the phrase
'i love you', once again
but this time-
she wanted him to not tell her a lie
