Even though we don't talk
Even though we're not on good terms
I'd still defend you to the death
And I'd never be against you
You see...
I didn't leave because I don't love you
I left because I love you too much
i wrote this in december of last year, on the 12th, actually. and it still applies. it's ******* sad.

He kisses
The salty tears away
Completely
Loves me right

I have the best of friends
The kind that can watch me cry
And hear me complain
About my so called "problems"
Which in the grand scheme of things
Probably aren't that big of a deal
But in that moment of weakness
My true friends are there for me
Always caring, always loving
They give me hope
Hope that used to be tainted
By fake people
People who lie and cheat
People who use me
For what?
Just to let me go?
Time after time
I never knew what the point was
But those are people
I wish to no longer speak to
What I do wish for
Is eternal happiness
For my friends
For my family
Who truly love me for me
They see my extreme flaws
They accept my heart
And its ridiculous emotions
They accept my mind
And its crazy assumptions
They know that I am a lover
They know I am not a fighter
They cherish me
And I cherish them
They hate those
That hurt me
That ruin me
And that is something
That they do for me
They get angry
To see me so hurt
And that is why
They are my real friends
I wrote this very quickly.

Do you know that I am human?
I am not a nothing
That is behind your phone screen
When you text me
I am a real person
With emotions and feelings
Do you know that I am not a toy?
I’m not just some game
That you play on your computer
I am a real person
With a heart and a mind
That is tortured every time
It is treated like a nothing
Do you know that I am not a robot?
I can’t just be entertained one day
And forgotten the next
Without extreme consequences
Unlike a robot
I have needs
I have wants
My heart is left to rot
Every time it is abandoned past recall
I think sometimes
Our society is overrun by technology
We forget how to be human beings
We forget how to treat one another
We get lost in the chaos
And instead of finding ourselves
In someone else
We end up making enemies
Rather than friends

I once knew this person
Gender doesn’t matter
What mattered
Was this person’s heart
Although I’ve never met them personally
I can still tell
What love and care it held
We weren’t lovers
We weren’t friends
It was somewhat of
An in between
Some weird connection
That came out of no where
But it was fun
They were so nice
Always so caring
And so gentle with their words
They would text me
The second they woke up
The second they were going to sleep
We would tell each other things
That we never told anybody
I know their deepest secret
Not even family members are aware of
It’s such an honor
To be trusted like that
By someone I’ve never even met
It shows that
They know the real me
And know that I am trustworthy
Just like they are
We’re both deep and emotional beings
This person had such a kind and caring soul
I miss how genuinely sweet
They were
It makes others seem rude and selfish
Not everyone can be the cream of the crop
But this person was
And I miss them

The more you get to know someone
The more you realize
That you never really knew them
In the first place
What does it matter
If you can see their face
That doesn’t hold much meaning
When it comes to friendship
What significance does a picture hold
When you can’t even watch
That person’s life unfold
What does it matter
If you can say a bunch of words
That doesn’t mean much
If their voice is unheard
Friendship is about being there
Being there in the flesh
Getting to hang out
And see if your personalities mesh
Distance separates many people
Yet a real relationship
Can still be formed
But only if
The right precautions are met
They talk throughout the day
They’re honest and truthful
About everything, in every way
They talk on the phone
Comforting the longing
Making it feel like home
Real friends are real people
It takes real work and effort
To create something that isn’t feeble
From now on
I’m only interested
In focusing on the relationships
That I know can withstand
A lifetime

i get really sad
and somewhat heartbroken
when i think of all the things
that i don't know about you
i don't know where you go
or what you do
it may seem weird
that i would want to know
all of the little things
like what you eat
and when you go to bed
and what you do with your day
but i guess that's what love is
i'm interested in everything
that i could possibly know
it ***** that most of you
is kept so private
i would share anything with you
i guess you have to protect yourself
but i'll tell you right now
i'm not dangerous
and i love you enough
to where i would never
want to harm you
or use anything against you
no matter what
i wouldn't dare think of it
i just want to know you
thick and thin
through and through
i feel like i'm shown one person
and the rest of the world
the real world
is shown something else
i want to experience who you truly are
not just some part of you
or some held off
piece of you
i want all of you
i want to know everything you think
everything you say
and everything you do
i want you
one hundred percent
i want to know all the secrets
that you don't share with anyone else
i want to know all the different parts of you
the dark ones and deep ones
that only come out at night
the light and funny ones
that come out on a good day
the hard working and dedicated ones
that come out when you are focused
i want to see it all
because i love you
and to think i don't know all there is to know
rips me in two
