If a boy says "I love you"
He's probably an *******
Samm Marie Dec 2016
Even after all your other friends leave
Because of the way you treat us all now
That you have your girlfriend who
Occupies your heavily teenage male brain
I will still be here
Even after she leaves you
Because I strongly believe that friends should never walk out
I will be there cheering you on
In your successes and
Comforting you throughout your failures
Because although you seem to fancy yourself
To be some Adonis of man
I know I will see you fail many times
But I also know the world could be yours
I don't appreciate the way you've been treating me
Or any of us for that matter
But know this:
I'm still here

And I said
Let no man break my heart without consent
And so it was

Don't you think it's just a bit funny that
Maybe you could have liked me had she not
Waltzed about with her perky ***** and flawless
Life hiding under ten pounds of ***** rouge because
For a while that's what I called her not because I truly
Believed that was what she is but only out of the thoughts that
If not for her I'd still have a chance don't you think it's the least
Bit hilarious that as soon as your relationship began our
Friendship seemed to have disappeared and now
I'm stuck here regrettably in love with you and
Leaving class the second you walk in  if only
Because I begin to panic with anxiety and heartbreak my
Heart is broken because of you and I spend hours
Awake crying when I really should be sleeping but
I suppose this is the way of the world but you should know
That if this is you exhibiting your godliness then
I don't want to know your god because he seems
Cruel and partial and mean to those
Who were not born into his beliefs and if I was
Created in his image then **** I want to
Die because you're not the nice man I thought
You were but merely a teenage boy

Dear Karma,
Thanks for being on my side
Dear Universe,
Thanks for remembering your laws
Dear Friends,
Thanks for being wrong
Dear Lies,
Thanks for harboring false hope
Dear Truths,
Thanks for carrying me back to shore
Dear Anxiety,
It'll be okay soon enough
Dear John,
Thanks for leading me on
Dear John,
Thanks for proving me right
Dear Charlotte,
Please treat him right

I thought someone like you
Could never like someone like me
So I didn't want to cave in
Didn't want to feel anything for you
But then you outstretched your hand
So I placed mine there
I didn't think you'd be weaving our fingers together
I thought coloring was just
A normal day in the neighborhood
"I want this one"
You leaned over my paper,
Pointing at that zing sag scarf
"To be red and green,
Like Christmas"
I didn't realize our chairs were touching
I thought it was an accident
That our thighs were together too
I thought an invitation to
Church was an act of discipling
And that you wouldn't be too
Bummed if I couldn't make it today
I thought someone like you
Could never like someone like me
But hey,
I guess I thought wrong
