My infatuation has turned to suffocation.
A year in the making is running me down.
My craving for another human's attention
is disgusting inspiration.
I surrender the game.

Well played.

i'm trapped in your virtual reality
reciting poems of love
& dancing to strange tunes
of swinging simple beats
played on the 1989 jukebox
while stars snow down in the bleak
& the tide washes in on where we could be
i marvel up at the sky
because there is little better to do
than enjoy the presence of your company
crooning like a shadow in the bonfire
i catch you in my sleep,
but nothing can bring me back to you
now that you're gone
i miss you so much

I don't know which is more sad?
Is it that,
Here I am alone and wishing that you'll be by my side,
Or the fact that you will never be mine?

Maybe what's more sadder
Is that I have given you
the power
to do this
to me.
Love is so cruel.

Try
I try so hard to write poems for you
And Yet you never did the same for me.
Loved you with all I got and that's true.
Even if I don't know how to swim, I'll jump at the sea.
If that's what will it take for you to love me.

*I want you to be mine.

The fire turned into an angry fire,
even if the flames were not yet visible.
Our love got dark and indistinguishable,
beneath the volumes of smoke towering above.
Yet,
the fire did not come that day.
Only the smell of it,
and the sight of smoke.
The sky,
bright yellow.
I saw it coming.
I saw us breaking apart.
Did you?
As the sky gets even yellow,
i felt more and more threatened.
Your fingers interwined with mine,
we ran.
We ran from the savage destruction that was now almost visible.
Then you let go.
You let go to save yourself.
As the air thicken,
and flames flutter from branches,
flowers crackling,
everything we built together,
burnt into bare earth.
I remembered you promised,
for better or for worse.
This is my worse alright,
but you promised.
Where are you now?
You know what's worse?
I'd never leave you behind.
I'd grab your hand tighter,
and we'd run together.
And when serendiptous victory is ours,
we'll rebuild.
We'll plant seeds again.
But you ran.
You ran away.
But the worst part is,
I won't blame you.

(FAH)
This was inspired.

Why
I forgot the Me
I was before

I forgot the way
I've lived before

I forgot the things
I've steered clear of

I forgot the monotone
I've been in

But why can't I forget
The way you placed your sweet lips upon me?

Why can't I forget
The way your beautiful mind functions?

Why can't I forget
The butterflies I felt when you held me?

Why can't I forget
Our deeper-meaning-of-life conversations?

Why can't I forget
Your face, your smile, your laugh?

Why can't I forget
*You?

I have a monster inside my head
it disguises its self using my own voice
it tells me I'm not pretty, no one loves me, I'm not smart, I'm doing everything wrong, and that I'll always be alone
some days I'm as bright as the sun while others I'm as dark as a night sky filled with no moon
I try to tell myself "you're happy, you're happy, you're happy"
but I never am
this monster has controlled everything
I have depression: and it's winning
