I now can see
that We are not the "We"
I wanted us to be.
But that's fine!
Cause, even if its
"Just you" and "Just me"
we love;
honestly.
I've now learnt- to expect is okay
and rejecting too.
Its all irrelevant anyways
cause I'll still love you!

Roses are red
Violets are blue
This constitutes as poetry
I love you too

I find it funny
To be called a poet
When often times
I cannot sew together
A simple sentence
To explain to you
The anxiety drilling
Holes deep within
My bones of which
Often feel non-existent.

I find it funny
To be called a wife
When often times
I cannot collect
The energy to make
A simple dinner
Meant for two
Or wash and fold
The laundry now
Two weeks past due.

I find it funny
To be called a friend
When often times
I cannot pick up
My phone for
Even a simple
Message to let you
Know I love you
Even if it may seem
Like I avoid you.

I find it funny
To be called funny
When often times
I am the **** of my
Own jokes and they
Have no clue that
To me, I am stating
Simple facts with
A hint of laughter
To keep from crying.

You're full of it
False hope and limp words
Spilling more than you're worth
I wish I never let you in
Always pulling my hair out
Cutting me with your nails and shouts
You're a mad mess
And I'm a wreck of your creation
