Changes
Jamie Nov 2014
I see it in your posts
Your becoming someone new,
An incredible version 2.

This new city is changing me too
I no longer care of whats expected of me
I'm moving on and what will be, will be

I will always remember those moments
Including the nights where I wish
I never said good bye or good night

Or that morning when I woke you up
And you gazed at me with hate, yet joy
To wake up yet, having me by your side

Friends
Jamie Mar 2015
We really are,
But I would rather,
Be home with you,
Than a night with the boys.

I wish you all the happiness,
But I wish it didn't hurt,
When you are with,
Someone the floor below

Disbelief
Jamie Jul 2016
If I wasn't brave tonight,
I wouldn't have been where I was tonight.

But then weeks ago, I wouldn't have met you,
I wouldn't have held your hand.

But I wouldn't have felt my heart beat faster,
When I saw you with another guy tonight

Forever Waiting
Jamie Sep 2015
Despite moving to London
With life flying by,
Faster than it ever has,
I know that I am waiting for something,
Something or someone that will make my life worth while.

Expecting, makes my expectations
So much more than it should,
Yet I can't change the way I am,
So I will continue,
Forever waiting for you

Memories
Jamie Aug 2014
Maybe this is why I cling on
The past is what I want
Maybe I missed my chance
After fate threw up together
And I ****** it up
...
Apparently its never too late
But it feels that way
More and more everyday
Maybe with some work and luck
Fate will once again throw you my way

Benchmark
Jamie Oct 2016
It's ended like I expected
I lost another
But when it happens
My mind goes back to you

I wonder if current me
Would have lost you like before
Or if it was old me that
Might have won this time around

London is too big
With too much choice
Is that why I lose?
Or was old me better than now?
848 · Jun 2015
So Disappointed
Jamie Jun 2015
Hearing about cheating,
Makes me upset,
I don't understand how you could,
Worst when you expect more from that person.

I don't care how bad life is,
What is one night going to do?
Don't you blame the drinks or the drugs,
It was all you.
Feel so strongly about this
843 · May 2018
For You
Jamie May 2018
For whatever I am,
And whatever I,
May ever be,
In this lifetime and the next,
I'm forever yours!

Livid
Jamie Sep 2014
I was all good
Slowly letting go
Then you appeared
On my phone

It was only a picture
Not only did she look amazing
Like the most perfect
I have never known

I know she wouldn't
Just do so, sitting at home
She never went to that much effort
For me

So for who?
Slowly dragging me back

After Dreams
Jamie Aug 2014
It's 1am and I am thinking
What does it mean
When you actually,
Achieve your dream

I have dreams
Some of which will
Never come true but,
What happens when they do

Currently I need a change of direction
A new lease for life
As for now,
I don't feel right

If I get what I want
Will it make me happy?
For a while yes,
But will it be forever?

I hope so
Because day by day
I know,
I am losing the fight
713 · Apr 2015
Seeing You
Jamie Apr 2015
I know it wasn't actually you
But my heart still jumped
I was excited, and all I could do
Was think about talking to the copy of you

And when I saw her guy
I wished there was something I could do
I know it wasn't you, but my heart knew
I am still in love with you
709 · Sep 2014
Stars
Jamie Sep 2014
I wish I never associated them with you
Cause when I see them, I think of you.
And they seem to be everywhere I go
702 · Aug 2013
Gravity
Jamie Aug 2013
All you do is draw my in

Into more thoughts
More ambitions
More goals
More life

I wish us to be fine
I really do

But the reality is
I don't know what you want
And more importantly
What I want to do

We owe nothing to each other
No payment is due

All you do is draw me in

I question
From time to time
Do I?
Really want you

We owe nothing to each other
No payment is due

Wouldn't it been
Easier
If we never spoke
If I never met you
700 · Jul 2013
Lie
Jamie Jul 2013
Lie
Sometimes it feels
Like one after another
I have no proof
Just what's going through my head

Logic is my strength
Give me the details and I will resolve
Being mislead is what am used to
With each lie I seem to restart
700 · Jan 2021
Home
Jamie Jan 2021
In every corner
I have a memory
Of us together

Lying side by side
Talking the night away
With food nearby

It hurt knowing
You would never
Come back home

Remains
Jamie Nov 2015
As more and more days go by,
I realise that you won't be in my future,
But you will always be in my heart,
That piece will stay for the rest of my days.

One day if we meet,
When I have someone new,
Only then will I know,
If I am truly over you.
651 · Feb 2016
Not Myself
Jamie Feb 2016
I haven't been around for months now,
Not the person I was born to be,
Taking it out the those who help,
And those who are around.

A disruptive path,
Damaging everyone around,
The ones who fully don't understand,
Personal pride being the issue.

Alone is what I need to be,
To grow up and out of this shell I have formed,
Now I have to prove I'm not wrong,
Battle to be the person I want to be.
I have been such a **** to someone nice
647 · Mar 2019
Last Breath
Jamie Mar 2019
One day when,
My time has come,
With my last breath,
I hope,
The memory of this current moment,
Will be my final one.
647 · Sep 2014
Loss
Jamie Sep 2014
I just don't know what to do
There is a feeling in my stomach
That I just don't want life anymore
What's the point in fighting for nothing
640 · Apr 2016
Lost
Jamie Apr 2016
I am a good guy
Who is just a little lost,
In love,
In work,
In life.

Trying to be happy,
Just wears me down,
Some ups,
But mainly downs,
Doesn't mean I'm excused for how I was to you.
633 · Jan 2015
Blank
Jamie Jan 2015
6am

I have a million thoughts
None of which I can finish
Before another interrupts the previous

This endless loop
Of when I get myself into this state.
Hours of happiness to this

Awake,
Alone,
Confused.

Have I just wasted another day?
623 · May 2018
First Kiss
Jamie May 2018
I want that midnight stroll,
Under that moonlit sky,
With both of us blushing,
Not being able to hold a gaze.

With smiles from ear to ear,
Biting our lips so lightly,
Slowing our walking pace,
Until we stop.

With my hand on your waist,
Moving my hand towards your cheek,
Brushing that one hair from your face,
Being nervous before our embrace
623 · Jul 2014
The Speech
Jamie Jul 2014
If I tried harder back then
We wouldn't be here
I would be in love
And so would you
The words I wish you knew

So much time has passed
And all I have is regret
We don't have long till you leave
And this is what I long for

Me and you to burn
Brighter than the sun
With what time
We have left
Right now

When you leave so will I
Our sun will emplode
And it will swallow itself up
Slowly losing all its shine

And if will meet in a few years
The sun we left to die will explode
Amungst the night sky
And the remainder of the supernova lights
We shall share till we die
I want to fall hopelessly in love with you. Die when you leave hoping one day we can be together as right now we can't be

After All This Time (16w)
Jamie Aug 2018
After goodbyes were said and done.
Even in silence,
It's possible to still be in love.
598 · May 2014
3.30am
Jamie May 2014
I can't remember the last time
I could sleep
Without the need to drink
To pass out
Without any thoughts
In my mind

Do I need an escape from reality
A new city?
Or a hobby? Or to get lost
In someone's eyes?
Life seems pretty bleak
Or maybe I just need sleep
586 · Jan 2014
Chemistry
Jamie Jan 2014
Something I don't understand
Are you friendly or is it more?
I open up to those with those I have it with
Then do I say too much to change your mind?
581 · Jul 2013
Fall Out
Jamie Jul 2013
Now you're gone
But I'll be OK
I know I will
Miss missing you
One day

But for now
I am upset
No words come to mind
I don't want you
To see me this way
575 · Jan 2016
Not Again
Jamie Jan 2016
Excited like a kid at Xmas
Hands sweaty in anticipation
Then you appeared
From nervous reck to comfort
With only a lingering hug

We spoke like we speak everyday
Not like the 2 years it has actually been
I gather the courage and hold your hand
Then I kiss you like I used to
Suddenly it all ends abruptly, with me waking up
She came back in a dream
567 · Jan 2017
Middle
Jamie Jan 2017
I'm lost in the middle
Don't know what to do
Do I stick or do I move
Content but yet alone
Commit or do I go
559 · Jun 2015
Goodbye Boy
Jamie Jun 2015
Rest well my giant silly pup,
You will forever be a puppy to me,
Always looking at me, wanting treats,
Wanting attention and crying when I didn't.

I wish I could have one more walk,
One more hug and one more kiss,
I know, you know I love you,
And how much too.

I will spend a life time missing and loving you.
Thank you for being in my life.
He was the best
558 · Apr 2013
Seasoned Thought
Jamie Apr 2013
My heart was winter
Chilling blizzards
With no light

An unexpected sun
Scorched my soul
Brief is what it was

Winter has now returned
The memory of light unforgetable
Summer is only a thought away
542 · May 2016
Waiting
Jamie May 2016
I am waiting for that day,
The day when everything makes sense,
So many days alone,
Too few days of content.

Waiting till my thoughts,
All my experiences,
Come together,
To feel more complete than any day before
531 · Sep 2014
Still Not There
Jamie Sep 2014
Today I was excited and optimistic
Not knowing what lay ahead
But that faded in the heat of the sun

I was then left with that all to familiar
Empty, soul wrenching feeling
I am alone, coming up to the lonely hour
525 · Jan 2014
One Year Later
Jamie Jan 2014
I am not the same
I was happy, alone but content
Waiting for something special
Then from no where
I found you and your little smile
Waiting for me to write

The fastest 3 months
I have been through
Was with you, in all my life
During that time I waited,
I found 'Someone Else'
Similar, yet better in hindsight

Still ... 3 more months I had to wait
6 months in total just to see her smile
And eventually we met
Something was right
Too much expectation
Not enough fight

This door closed abruptly
All of a sudden
My cousin was right
With this slamming door
To my damaged heart
A window opened

That 'Someone Else'
Reappeared
And showed me
What was right,
How to hold her hand
How to make it feel right

You then left me
Not your fault or mine
I missed you
The second your hand left mine
Sleep was hopeless
It couldn't escape my mind

3 months later
Which is this point in time
What a year it has been
A hurtful one which
Made me wait for 2 people
Who were never mine
What is this year going to throw at me ...
507 · Jun 2014
Changed
Jamie Jun 2014
Currently I am drowning
I jumped in when I can't swim
I dug myself this hole
Life will be worse without you

Through lack of thought
Not being the person I was
When I met you
I have hurt you

I have become the person
I said I would never be
Sorry for all I have done
You really did, mean a lot to me
I don't love you and I didn't mean to lead you on.
501 · Jul 2016
Why isn't it easier?
Jamie Jul 2016
Having written down,
All I have ever felt,
Why isn't the pain
Or loneliness any easier

It feels like I am on loop,
But going through it all faster,
Feels like an implosion is pending,
Not sure if I can cope again
499 · Sep 2015
Imaginary World
Jamie Sep 2015
I used to spend my life day dreaming,
But this built high expectations,
I think it's because I normally,
Have a positive outlook on life.

What this has taught me is,
I have wasted too much time,
Dreaming of something that,
Will never come true
494 · May 2017
Come away with me
Jamie May 2017
Come on away with me
I love you so
I just don't know
Just where to go
As long as we are so
488 · Sep 2015
Down
Jamie Sep 2015
I can't believe where I am,
Having to force myself to look up,
I feel like everyone is above me,
And that I'm not worth anybody's time.

I spent a week being angry at world,
Thinking if the world is treating me this way,
I will treat the world that way too,
But today I'm exhausted.

I don't have any fight,
Work has taken me to Amsterdam,
All the fun that could be had,
But I just want to cry.
Today is a bad day
488 · Aug 2014
The Line
Jamie Aug 2014
Its finally been drawn
I held the pen for almost a year
Never sure if I ever connect the dots
But you steadied my hand

I cherish all the memories
I only remember the good ones
Not all the times I missed you
Or wondering if you missed me too

Currently I'm not hurt or happy
Neither numb or full of relief
I knew you wouldn't reply
And I don't mind, not knowing why

If I saw you one final time
I wouldn't know, how I would be
It was a gamble and a wait and see
But I am glad I tried one last time
She didn't reply meaning we don't get a chance to say goodbye
484 · May 2014
Endless Hours
Jamie May 2014
This mood is tedious
Waiting patiently
For nothing in particular

All the smiles never last
Always returning to
My lonely hour
479 · Sep 2015
Cancelled
Jamie Sep 2015
I spent all week waiting
Like a child at Xmas,
I didn't text much
Because I wanted to save it all,
For the moment we met again.

A million questions were ready
Because I want to know you,
There is more than just the looks behind
The way we looked at each other that day,
A glimmer of a future together perhaps?
476 · Jul 2014
Writing
Jamie Jul 2014
A part of me feels
I only write when I feel

When I have nothing
I am empty but seemingly content

As I write in this moment
I have no emotion for once

Perhaps I know
Something on the horizon is coming

Maybe I should take some time
To not force anymore but take it as it comes
Looking up for the first time in months
469 · May 2015
Disbelief
Jamie May 2015
I can't believe I'm bitter,
You said hello and said things,
That I have dreamed about.

But with every word,
I want conversation over,
So you can't let me down again
"I wish this could be over now, the proofs in the way it hurts" - Sam Smith

Sleep
Jamie Oct 2015
Only there are we together,
And only there,
Is the place,
Where you really care.

Older Now
Jamie Feb 2018
When I was 24,
This was the girl
I dreamt of,
Coming in like a steam train,
And change my everything.

Now at 29,
You came in and fit into my hand,
Like it was there before,
But less than a month,
I am back to never have met you.

If you were older,
If I was younger,
We just might... have made it,
But you need time,
And I need patience.

But I can't spend,
5 years writing and waiting,
For someone who won't come back,
So I will end this,
The way "The One" ended it,
all those years ago.

Timing is a *****
5 years of looking for this kind of person. But now I have grown, I know this isn't what I want anymore
464 · Dec 2016
Back Again
Jamie Dec 2016
Hello, it's me,
Back again.

The feeling of,
not being enough.

What is it that has changed,
From 2 weeks ago?

Did this one also,
Just wake up to decide...

That I am not enough,
Like all the others?
That feeling is back
455 · May 2016
Enchanting
Jamie May 2016
There is something words can't describe,
You are my type but it's more,
I want to open up your shyness.

Something I know I have to work at,
I know that I could easily fall for you,
It's been so long since I felt this way.

I need to fight but I just don't know how,
My emotions won't win but it's hard to ignore,
How hurt you can make me feel
452 · Jan 2018
The One
Jamie Jan 2018
Why are you there?
For someone 15,000 miles away?
Why couldn't it have been me?
I'm so done,
I don't understand,
4 years I could have spent, better off.
I don't hate you.
But I'm done
