No, I don't want this
But does anyone?
The want of someone's attention
But instead you get none

I guess it's human nature
Wanting what's untouchable
But what hurts deep down
Is feeling you're incapable
Jasmine Steele Aug 2015
Not everyone will be there
No, not everyone will care
There won't always be someone
to wipe away your tears
Not everyone will come and take you by the hand
Don't lose yourself
This you must understand
When people let you down
And when times get tough
You only have yourself
and that has to be enough
Jasmine Steele Nov 2015
It's come to a point
Where I can no longer see
Blind with disappointment
A lock with no key
It's come to that point
With no shame I decree
That I'd rather reverse time
Back to the misery
There's no one here now
And there will never be
Someone who cares
Who truly longs for me
There's nothing here now
And to God I plea
For someone to come around
With love to guarantee
This isn't sadness
This is not misery
Take a look inside my heart
You will find that it's empty
I suppose I speak for all
When I say that this is the worst
This is no misery nor sadness
But a feeling that restricts all words

If you wish to tear me down
Tell me you love me
And never speak to me again

If you wish to break my heart
Make me a promise
And destroy it in the end

If you wish to make me fall
Tell me I'm worth it
Give me truth, not just dare

If you wish to call me yours
Be there at my lowest
And show me that you care
Jasmine Steele Sep 2015
You were the first
Saying you'd be the best
I didn't know better
So I said yes
But now I see
Now I see the lies
Behind those sweet eyes
That I have memorized

Did I mean a thing to you?
I want the truth nothing more
You never cared enough
And for that I still mourn
She was always on your mind
But you still called me yours
Now I see the lies
Behind the promise you once swore

I wish I was taller
I wish I had wit
I wish it was easier
for addicts to quit

I wish for love
I wish for world peace
I wish for discrimination
and hate to decrease
I wrote this in like 10 minutes as classwork for school

The good times you've had
Are not sewed in time
Just 'cause it's a new day
They're not all left behind

The bad memories held
Move on when it's your time
To let go is your choice
Don't let one day decide

Remember you're in control
On what you choose to do
Your experiences, your decisions
Are entirely up to you

Though it's just a number
And nothing will really change
The idea of new perspectives
Will not be tamed

Not always a goodbye
Sometimes another hello
Expand into the new year
If there's too much to let go

I wish you experiences
Adventures, love, and luck
I wish you good memories
That you will never give up

Have faith in each day
And fulfill every smile
Remember life is short
So make yours worth while

Take my hand
And you'll never be alone
I'll always be here
I won't ever let you go

Take my heart
It's beating just for you
With feelings incomparable
I only wish you knew

Take my world
I'll give it to you dear
Leave everything I know
Just to have you here
Take my apology
For I have broken my vow
I never meant to hurt you
But I will love you better now

So take my word
I'll try my hardest to mend
The pieces of our shattered hearts
This love won't fall again

— The End —
