ever since i told myself i wasn’t allowed to love you, that i cant love you,
i’ve done nothing but put more distance between the two of us.
as if the thousands of miles, as if the oceans between us
wasn’t already enough.
i miss you.
I never liked anyone so much...
Like I like you...
But I never felt so ignored by anyone...
Like you ignore me...
But I can't blame you...
We can't go back in time...
And I can't change what happened between us...
But I wish I could get my mind and heart to ignore you...
The same way you do ignore me...
I just can't...
And it is so painful...
Don’t cry, for the relationship we lost
Cry because it happened.

Don’t cry, because I am no longer there
Cry because I once did care.

Don’t cry, because of time that has now gone
Cry because of all the memories that you made with me.

Don’t cry, too much
Time will continue to pass.

Please don’t cry because you think you failed.
Cry because you succeeded,
and because, it meant something.
Not because, it meant nothing.
Please do cry, as much as you want, because there, once was, a you and me.

I stood between my father's fist
and my brother
dared to say the words
hit me instead
you know it's what you want
bulging red eyes
and a thousand-mile stare
17
and bravely standing up
to my lifelong bully
and at that moment
I reclaimed my value
he knew I was no longer scared
