you gave me butterflies when i talked to you
you gave me the attention i craved.
each time you texted me i got the same butterflies,
over and over again, you know?
yeah i enjoyed it,
lasted a few days
and maybe weeks
it stopped when you stopped texting me
when you started talking to other girls.
the butterflies went away whenever you texted me
instead of butterflies
i got teary eyes.
the funny part is that
the tears still come,
and the butterflies went away.
but someone special got the butterflies,
who actually pays attention to me.
and understands me

its that chocolate brown eyes that make me
go crazy; the brown that most people don't
like. the brown that look's golden in the sun
light; the type of brown that has blue under-
neath. the brown that has flicks of green and
hazel; the brown that i fell in love with; but
you don't notice how beautiful your eyes are.
each time you look at me, i don't see brown,
i see hazel, with some gold; that mimics your
personality. gold. the gold of the ring that i
always wear. the gold ring with the gold dia-
monds. but its not just your eyes that make
me smile. its your lips as well; the pink, plump
lips. the lips that i wanna kiss for hours with.
the ones that always smile at me. the ones that
never change. that pretty salmon color pink.
the pink that the flowers have during spring.
it hasn't changed. my feelings for you. its stayed
the same for months now. you'll always be the
love of my life. and that my love will never change.

you remind me of
the first summer breeze;
warm, relaxing.
you remind me of
the first autumn rain;
cool, refreshing.
you remind me of
the winter coats;
huggable, cozy.
you remind me of
the flowers blooming in spring;
beautiful, colorful.
you remind me of
the small things in life;
the stars in the sky,
the salty sea breeze at the beach,
the feeling when you put fuzzy socks on,
the sun and moon,
the feeling of waking up feeling refreshed.
everything i think about
reminds me of you.

I remember when you first said hi to me.
I died inside, even though I didn't know you.
I had butterflies in my stomach
and the vivid thoughts of us dating;
Even though we just met.
You always flirted with me;
even though you liked other girls.
Month's past and I got your number,
from the girl who liked you.
I remember that day like it was yesterday.
December 15, 2014
I sent you homework;
You moved really fast.
I went along; Considering you
were the one who started it.
And I liked you.
We would talk about all the deep stuff
How we should move to New York
How you would come over and we would study
How you said you would keep me safe and happy.

Well two days later you lied.
You got high;
Talked about other girls how you would talk about me
I was emotionless the next day;
upset because I thought you'd be better than the first.
Upset because you lied to me.
I wasn't upset because you did drugs.
Upset because you broke me again.
Hoping you would fix me.

I watched movies all winter break
Didn't help
I texted other people hoping to forget about you
Didn't help
I tried talking it out; Drawing it out.
Nothing helped

But
The worst part is that,
You didn't even notice.

Today, a man asked me if I'm happy. I thought about his question for a moment. I mean, there's nothing wrong with my life. I have a great family, I adore my friends, I'm going to a college I love, yet I still feel empty. I told him "yes" anyway. He looked me straight in the eye and said, "I know you're lying." I thought my facade was convincing, but I guess I'm losing my talent.

I'll sing of all the ways I miss you
and how this sorrow came to be
the verses, lies I should have whispered
the chorus, truths in harmony.

The melody will break the silence
and call your broken heart to me
to be repaired by love unyielding
to broken hymns in minor key.
Depression lies and makes us push those we love most away, sometimes so far away that they can never return.
