My heart aches
I never knew one person
could make me feel so much pain

My soul breaks
Our relationship worsens
And both of us are to blame

You are my love
My first time  
My good morning kisses
My goodnight hugs
My year long love
My first everything

But what am I to you?

Your first ****
Your burden to bear
Your sigh of relief
When I’m not there
Your fat girlfriend
Your ball and chain

You will always be my first love
Yet I’ll never be good enough
So as much as it pains me to say
We need to break up

they said
"you'd be jealous"
they lost 42 pounds
in only four months
quickly doing the math
that's 10.5 pounds per month
2.625 pounds per week
i laughed a bit
realizing their monthly rate
was how much i had lost
within only two weeks
then i asked myself
"why would i be jealous
when i can be better
and lose that 42 pounds
in half the time took them?"

I sit in a lonely corner.
Watching minutes go by.
The world spins around me.
And still no one can explain why.
Why I’m so hurt, in a world full of joy.
Why I’m so dark, in a world full of light.
No one can explain why I’m the only one. Sitting in this corner. While the other kids run

Well, I'm still here
In a room with the lights out
Maybe I will die here
Hopefully not today
I couldn’t see the end, yet
We STILL tried like we were true
In unfinished LOVE you let me go
Cause within your heart, YOU felt that I would cheat on you.
Ran into my ex today...

When I finished this poem and was looking for what to name it... my friend pointed out the title, I didn’t even see it.

all I ask of you,
don't buy me flowers.
take me to a garden.
for I get sad when they die.
when they are ripped
from their roots
in the ground.
their time for
growing is up.
they can no longer
have conversations
with the sun
or the grass
or the rain
as it kisses them
so softly.

In my mind
and in the shadow of our illusions
We all come together
as one

I want you to explain to me
what you can see
in my eyes
and in my head

Because every tear that have ever fallen from my eyes
is just part of the sea

Count your blessings
Sticks and stones

I am broken
But don't try to repair me because it will take your life
and my life too
Take me away from here,
I've always wanted to run away;
Show me how to fly,
I'm sure it's easier than they say.
