We are all waiting for something to happen,
Someone to text us and ask us out,
Someone to tell us that they we are beautiful.

We feel lonely in our own company,
We feel this heaviness in our heart,
We wish someone would hold us and tell us we make a difference to their lives.

We are depressed souls
We are burnt out, waiting.

Fairy tales were all lies
We meet so many people
But none of them do anything to us.
None of them make us go 'he's the one'.

I keep looking at other couples
And wonder how happy they must feel,
Being with their one and only.
If I have a hard day at work,
Or a fight with a friend,
I wait to get back home,
Just to be alone.

I put on some scented candles,
And some soothing french music,
Then get into my bathtub,
My comfort zone.

For it's the only space,
I can be my complete self,
No one to make small talks,
No one to play any games.

Its when I am able to make a decision,
Its when I can think wisely,
I love how it calms my heart,
I love how it releases the pain.

I don't need no therapy,
I don't need a friend to talk,
Just need some time by myself,
And I will be whole again.
I think about you
I think about us
I wonder what it could be
I wonder if it could last.

We are more than friends now
Something they couldn't imagine
But we have to keep our mouth shut
Or it might repeat the past.

All we know is tomorrow
Tomorrow we could make it work
As today we are scared
Scared to trust our gut.

We are meeting really soon
That makes so excited
But I am feeling quite nervous,
As i might be in a rut.

However, my lips dangerously miss you
My hair waiting to be caressed
My forehead is waited to be kissed,
When I am with you, I can easily forget the rest.


My heart is thumping
The blood is pumping
Soon I'll be next to you.
Soon i would be lying on your chest.
What do you do?
Where do you stay?
Oh okay, good to meet you
Now I have to move away.

What is that brand?
Oh its from that shady place?
No, sorry I can't meet you today,
I will call you later, have a good day!

What does your father do?
How much does it pay?
Oh alright well, speak to you soon,
I have to go now, I have a busy schedule, hey!

What am I doing tomorrow?
Well I have stuff to do
And I wanted to tell you that
We should go our own way!
I love poetry
But what annoys me is that you write them too.
Who knows at this point,
You might be filling up some spaces as well.
Screaming your lungs out of hell.
I know I have done the right thing
But why does it hurt so much?
Am I not supposed to feel good about myself
Am i supposed to not give a ****?

It has only been a few months since I have known you
And we decided to stop talking once and for all,
Thought I could focus on better things in life
Since knowing you was a wrong call.

But why does it hurt so much?
Why do I keep thinking about you
Why do I have this empty feeling within?
And why am I even writing about you!

Your words keep spinning in my head
And I can't stop thinking of that face,
It keeps distracting me from whatever I try to focus on,
And I just find myself walking around in a daze.

Truth be told
One day i will get over you,
And I will feel a great sense of relief once that happens
Like getting rid of a really bad flu.

It might not happen today but it will happen soon
And once it does, I will be dancing to a new tune.
I tried to keep away from the heartbreak
I tried to hide myself in a shell
But then it happened again,
Yet again I got another story to tell.

You came like a wind and disappeared
And now I am left alone, like I was before
You haven't sent me one single text since then,
As if what we had doesn't matter to you anymore.

It is funny how things break easily and die
And now I wish I had been a little bit wise
One moment life gives a cookie, and the next moment it takes it away,
Before you even realize.

I guess now I am left with nothing but to work on myself
For a better tomorrow I hope,
It's not easily to remove someone overnight
But with time I am sure I can cope.
