"I sit here stitching myself back together
Wondering if this time too, it'll break
or finally last forever."
Lauren Leal Oct 2017
If there's anything that you should know
Is that I never really wanted to go
I would have used myself whole
To help you, that's the goal

Then there would be nothing left of me
So, I had to leave you see
There just wasn't enough for you
I ran out and didn't know what to do

To come up with more pieces
I made deals with Demons like car leases
To full fill your needs
Responding caringly to every plead

The cost was my happiness
That made me a mess
I never got a chance to be alone
Away from you or my phone

I buried every anger and every sadness
Which lead to my madness
You never paid no mind to me
I can do this can't you see!

I was left in the dust
You were steel and I was just the rust
You only know what what I spoke
Or that too I make a joke

You never asked about my heart
So that's why I left, because I fell apart.
Enneagram Personality 2-1 = Me.

Lote Do
I'm tired of your smiles
Your laughs and fake gestures
You choke me
With kind words
Behind your sly faces

Please, please
Stop it
I'm tired of your fakeness
Leave me be
Leave me alone
I'm tired of you all!
This poem is about people who tend to talk behind your backs. Lately I've been dealing with those kinds of people lately.

John Doe
You are as toxic as chemicals

But look at me

Still breathing you in like the cigarettes I smoke

I'd rather you hate me
and move on dear

Than love me
and be stuck, I fear

"I find myself happy and free
Oh how life can be
But why not with you and me
Is there something we didn't see"
The only thoughts tonight.
