I loved you despite every imperfection,
Everything.
Even the imperfections that hurt me.
I loved you in spite of it all.
Not because they were good for me,
Not because I got off on them,
I loved you because I needed to learn how to love.

Despite anything you’ve done,
Despite anything you do to me,
Despite any possible reason you have to hate yourself,
I love you regardless of who you are.
I love the things you say and the things that make up who you are.

Before you I didn’t know what it meant to love,
To truly love unconditionally.
I read but didn’t understand,
Was aware but didn’t know,
Was taught but didn’t experience.

You think you’ve caused me more trouble than anything else,
You hate yourself for what you’ve done or who you are.
You didn’t think love existed until we met.

I promise you,
God will bring you to it,
I know it because
Here’s my secret my dearest,
I hate myself too,
But God showed me the way.

Your life is a clock,
I was simply an hour.
When you’d tick I would tock,
But my talk would leave you sour.

My time passed by,
Your time is running short,
But those memories won’t die,
So to them I resort.

I hope your next hour treats you better than I did.
I hope it doesn’t cower like your eye to your eyelid.
I hope it kisses you like your ears to a vinyl.
And I hope your next hour doesn’t turn to be your final.

Sometimes...
    I sit here and cry,
       Because it's You I Despise.

Spend every waking hour
                                by your side;
    Hearing every I Love You and
                                      Goodbye.
  
With every kiss you give,
          I feel Empty and Sick...

Why do you deserve to be Loved?
When everything about You is...    
                                             Flawed.

  You're an Accident,
                   A Disgrace.
  You don't belong in this place.
                       Dead and gone,
            Where you belong..

So My death
     Do not prolong.
                I Hate You...
                         I Hate me...

You can hate yourself...
                        
                            ­        Apparently...
This was after a 2 year relationship, my life spiraled out of control into hard substance abuse and an obsession to die. I blamed myself for it... But I now realize Love cannot be regulated.. Either you're all in or you're out.. Even though you can blame yourself all day and focus so much on aggressive self destructive behaviors, at the end of the day you will find that peace you have so desperately seeked.

Sometimes,
We shed tears for no reason
We feel sadness without explanation
We wake up in the middle of the night for nothing
And we fall in love unexpectedly.

today i have a stomach ache for some reason.
i think something must be rotten
in there.
i don't know if this malaise comes from
the microwaved chicken wrap
i had for breakfast, or
from the unexpected death of all the butterflies
that used to live inside.
but
if the second one is true,
the second one was you.

I don't like to express myself
Because I know I'll be put down.
You say you wouldn't do that to me,
But darling,  don't you see?
You already have.
So now I sit silently
Having nothing to share.
No individuality.
No importance,
No need to be here.
I'm about as needed
As a white crayon is
On white paper.

I am part of human destruction
And I refuse to believe that
You can change someone else's point of view
I realize this may be a choice
But happiness comes from within a lie
It will make you paranoid
And in the future relationship
Jealousy might be the biggest mistake you'll commit
no longer can it be said but
My senses are already gone for long
It will be solely unreliable to believe that
This word is purely agony and longing
It is foolish to assume that
There is Love.
