Sometimes sorry just doesn't cut it,
Sometimes it simply doesn't work.
Sometimes I can't do anything,
but think and wallow in hurt.

Sometimes I wish I was stronger,
Sometimes I wish I could speak,
Sometimes I wish you'd understand,
that I am only weak.

For you are the decision,
both savior and destroyer,
that one choice I had made,
to bring the joy to summer.

But alas, it seems you are not it,
not the warm breeze I wished would come,
but the harsh winter from rage come undone.

I love you, t'is the truth we know,
but as you add another tear,
to my own joy and happiness..
Sometimes I wished you had more care.
For my friend
I see you
standing there
expecting me
to do something
to impress you

like danceing
on the edge
of the balcony
or in some way
try to seem like I want you

but I could
care less
of what you think of me

of a preety girl
hiding in plane sight
that you would rather
somehow save
and take to bed

but I'm not her
I would rather
fall off the balcony
than be with you

So what if I use simple words?
So what if I use cliche scenarios?
So what if I do not rhyme?
So what if my metaphors are lame?
So what if my stories are incoherent?
So what if my thoughts are obscure?
So what if I prefer free verse than iambic pentameters?


I write to express,
not to impress
So please, mind your own style.
Another old poem of mine. No worries, I take any kind of criticism.
your absence is
like the aftermath
of the storm

i'm left to wonder
whether i prefer
the desperate
insanity you blew
into my life

or the deadly
silence.
At least I know where I stand in a storm.

When the music stops,
I'll still dance with you
When the world is insincere,
I'll still believe in you
When you feel tired,
I'll carry you around
When you cry in pain,
I'll save you from your tears
When no one hears you scream,
I'll scream with you

Just put your heart in my hands,
You'll be safe here
Inspired by the song You'll Be Safe Here.

Don't ask me why I stop giving you attention,
When in fact you never gave an appreciation.

Don't ask me why I didn't fight
I know you will only say it wasn't right

So please don't ask me why I left
When in the first place, you never asked me to stay.
