I wish to be hers forever
To fix her broken heart

I wish to make her whole
To help her be happy

How much does it take?
To fill the void of sadness

What will I do if I cannot be hers
Because all I think about is her

I know it cannot be forgotten but I want it gone... I want the pain to leave this body. Is it too much to ask to get the truth? All I want is her and I can't ever have her because she is the whispering sadness I feel constantly. If it could only be simple to just tell her and she would say yes. No matter what she will stay with me but I know she doesnt feel the same about me.

Fear is a complete lie there is no fear but the reality we make for our selves good and bad. Its the sunken sadness in our eyes, the many beliefs we choose to contemplate through the time we are alive. I choose not to fear and in return I feel so much more pain... but not the physical pain you think of when you break a bone or scrape your knee. I feel the heartbreak of thousands. The temporary happiness of all. There is no description for what I feel but I shall be the one to endure through all the times of my life and all others.

I just want you
to be happy
but sometimes
and selfishly
I want to be
your happiness

But
'happiness is a choice'
you say
and you didn't choose me

I clung onto the idea
since you made me happy
it would be the same for you

What is happiness now?
where has it gone to?
In time, society has robbed us
the real meaning of happiness

Go on your own way
and pursue your happiness
for your smile, is my smile
your laugh, is my laugh

and I'll be happy
when you find your happiness
because I love you
always have, always will

summer nights
fairy lights
women rights
skinny tights
we ended up with
lovers' fights

plain as day
you took away
a sunshine ray
left me with
no words to say

feelings fade
a girl's parade
to hold her head high
and hide the mess you made

You spend your adolescent years studying and taking school way to seriously only to find out that life ***** you over and your completely unprepared for the times ahead unless you have trained for a real life. When you finally get out and you have the job you wanted, you find that it is more boring than you realize.  You spend another few years "power leveling" for a job that you thought was cool and your stuck in this oblivious cycle thinking that you will finally get what you want then BOOM your old, you can't do  anything with your life anymore... for the few that end up happy I wish you the best...

her
I want to be hers more than anything, to feel the soft caress of hers lips over mine. She doesnt know how I feel but I hope that one day it will all work out. in the end I will be her white knight... but I know the difference between fantasy and reality. The unknown scares me when it comes to her. I get up everyday scared she will be gone and I will never see her again. I only fear her for a reason I can't acknowledge.... I love her and she doesn't
