Breaking up
Maria G Victoria Dec 2012
I breath deeply, the clock is ticking
It’s been hours, but nothing’s changed
“What’s happened to us?” You ask
But I won’t answer, because deep down I think I know

We used to laugh,
It never took us this long to get over whatever little argument
And just when I think we are finished you find some other reason to stay mad
I throw a lamp. I didn’t really mean to, I just did
You stare at me and ask again, louder
“I don’t know” my voice begins to crack because I really do know

You try to kiss me, but I push you away
I remind you of that stupid thing you did last month
You remind me of that phone call I forgot to make
It never stops. It’s no longer enough
We are no longer enough

Your green eyes start to water
I can see that you know as well
This time I ask you
“You don’t love me anymore” you whisper
I run to hug you, because I don’t want to believe it
“I think you don’t love me,” I sob.
You grab me tighter. I can’t breath
And just like that it’s time to let go.

I apologize for the lamp.
We promise to stay friends
But it hurts too much to loose love like that
So we move on, and go our separate ways.
One day I’ll see you, with the life you deserve
I’ll be able to smile and say
“I loved him once”, and I’ll know it was okay to let go.

Lies in rhymes
Maria G Victoria Jun 2013
You hold me tonight
In your arms so tight
You whisper in my ear
Lies that I wish to hear
It’s not hard to see
What you mean to me
But the sun is quick to rise
And with that my reality dies
You kiss my cheek and say goodbye
What good is it to try?
Should I ask you to stay?
Or watch you leave without a sound?
The door closes and I swear this was the last time
Oh please, I really shouldn’t lie in this rhyme.

Hope
Maria G Victoria Mar 2014
Remind me why I can’t
Why I won’t
Remind me why it’s impossible to do so
Why it would **** me dry of what makes me... well me, to give it up.

Remind me how it exists
Why it’s worth it
Remind me what it feels like to have it in you
Why it made me feel I could fly

But don’t remind me of what its like when its gone
For I’m living it right now
And don’t tell me how others settle in a life without it
For it’s beyond the last thing we should loose

Remind me how it surrounds me, even when I feel alone
Why it’s within me, even when I feel empty
Remind me that I’m worth it, even when my mind screams that I’m not  
Why I’ll have it, Why I deserve it, Even if you don’t think it so.

— The End —
