Forever
Emily Aleta May 2015
I don't care what everyone else thinks
When they see us together
And whisper to each other

I only care about the way you hold my hand
And laugh softly at a joke only you know
And smile the most genuine smile in the world

Because they haven't seen you like I have
At two in the morning
Making stupid jokes because you're tired.

They haven't felt you like I have
Pressed against my back
While your fingers run through my hair.

And they will never love you like I love you
With every fiber of my being
Forever.

Tired
Emily Aleta May 2015
I'm tired
Not physically
But mentally

I'm tired of becoming anxious
When you don't respond
And I'm left contemplating
All the awful things that could have happened.

I'm tired of not sleeping
Because my brain won't stop racing
Because you told me you weren't ok
Then refused to tell me why.

I'm tired of feeling sick
Because my heart beat won't slow down
Because you tell me there's nothing I can do
To help my best friend

But one thing I will never get tired of is you
The way you make me smile
And the way you make me laugh
And the way you support everything I do.

And I hope one thing above all else
That you won't take my worry to be nagging
That you will keep me in your life
Because I won't be able to handle it
If you get tired of me.

— The End —
