I waited for you
for nothing.
I can't believe I was so blind.
I waited for you
to see you,
real life is nothing like online.
When at last I finally saw you again,
I think we were both a little disillusioned
Though you were sweet and kissed me when you left,
I've not heard a single word from you,
you must think I'm a loser.
For months I stayed up late at night,
just to have a chance to chat,
while you were off overseas,
now I just feel like a prat.
I should have known it wouldn't work out.
I should have seen this coming.
You don't think I'm as great as you hoped,
and I don't think you're all that stunning.
I removed your picture from my phone,
I can't believe things ended up this way.
I was expecting us to fall in love,
not to give up after one day.
But it's fine,
I'm okay,
I only waited almost a year.
I'll find someone else,
I won't have to wait for.
Thanks for everything, my dear.

How do I let you back into my life

When you slammed
the door
in my face
and only opened it
when you got lonely.
Saw me dead on
the doorstep.


How do I let you back into my life

When the title
of this poem
is the title of the song
that I spent years
wasting time
on loving you
like you never
spent
on me.

And I let you in
And I let you in, again.

20 weeks and I've fallen
So hard that I have shattered
The butterflies ate me alive
As I realized I never mattered

i've been alive seventeen years
and I am just now scratching the surface
of living.

A wise man said you aint young forever
well forever is a **** long time
so I packed my bags and I headed for Georgia
cuz Georgia is on my mind

don't waste time

because wasted time is like a hobos change
it aint good for nothing but crime

Nobody told me
That disappointment was your body.
Nobody told me
That hope was something I shouldn't waste on you.
Nobody told me
That blood was a synonym for your name.
And nobody told me
How I should love you
or how I shouldn't,
But then again,
Nobody told me
That you are just like me;

Pushing people away
The second they ask for some
Honesty.

Nobody told me
That I needed to love myself
Before I could ever love you

Nobody told me
That you're the reason
I'm disappointed in every person
I've ever met after you.

You're the reason
Nobody told me.
Because no one told you.

I hate him
I hate him
I hate him

He was never in love with me
He doesn't know how to love
Wasted years on him
Five to be exact

Years of feelings
That were never returned
Just lies
In place of them

I'll always be there for you
He said
This isn't the first time he's lied
I shouldn't be surprised

I keep falling back under his spell
Is this what it's like to be in love?

Love bites

I want to hate him
I should hate him
But I can't
