Back and forth
And back again,
In and out you go;
There you were,
Now here you are,
No place too close
Nowhere too far,
An endless loop
Of your indecision
Leaves me dizzy
From all this spinning.
L Marie Apr 2016
I run as fast as I can--
From myself,
From my anxiety,
From my depression,
From the voices,
From the guilt,
From you.
Yet every corner I turn,
There are the feelings--
Of self-deprecation,
Of fear,
Of apathy,
Of frustration,
Of judgement,
Of my heart breaking.
When I finally let go,
There you are
And when you're gone
There come the rest.
I am caught in a web
With more predators than prey,
And I am ripped into pieces
That will never satiate them,
Nor you--especially you.
L Marie Apr 2016
Here we are,
As we were before,
Only never to be the same.
You took the pieces of my heart
But I'm the only one there is to blame.
I took the risk and placed myself in the rain;
Who would've ever thought with such a smile
Your words could bring me so much pain?
Yet you don't see the difference in me,
You genuinely think I am happy,
And I suppose I truly was,
In the memories of
My brain.
L Marie Apr 2016
I wish, I wish, with all my heart,
I used to beg upon the stars,
To find a love and ever after,
To wipe my tears and share my laughter--

Now I can't see the stars at night,
Just hallow darkness in place of light,
Now all I truly ask the heavens of
Is to grant me some of my own love.
L Marie Apr 2016
You always called me your Queen
And said you would be my King
But in the end, I was just the Joker;
I suppose that makes you the Jack-***,
So please kiss my Ace goodbye.
L Marie Apr 2016
You stole the words
Right under my breath;
You took a piece of my heart
And now you won't give it back.

I gave you all the trust
As you fed me all those lies
And I gobbled them up, just like
The little fool you always knew I was.

I'm left here to wonder
In my newfound isolation
Was it ever how I thought it was
Or could I ever see it, how it truly is?
L Marie Apr 2016
I am disgusted with myself
For inexplicably catching feelings
For someone I would never
Logically fall so hard for.
I must have left my heart open
And vulnerable and I'm sorry.
I hereby demand you leave my heart,
This is your eviction notice,
You have twenty four hours
To pack up and go and don't forget
To leave the key behind.

Please.

I'm begging.

This makes so little sense,
It is utterly maddening.
How could this happen to me?
