They ignored me.

disappointment
Natalie Feb 2014
isn't it awful when you are hurt and disappointed so often, you start to say,
"I'm used to it"

You're Wrong
Natalie Feb 2014
There you go again
Blaming it on me
So I look bad
But in reality
You've done the most wrong

Alone
Natalie Oct 2014
We cling to music, to poems, to quotes, to writing, to art because we desperately do not want to be alone. We want to know we aren't going crazy and someone else out there knows exactly how you're feeling. We want someone to explain the things we can't.

Changed
Natalie Feb 2014
You walk by her,
the girl you've known all your life.
The one you relied on for those years past.
But she moved on and no longer wants you.
They got in her head, under her skin,
forced a mask on her and twisted her into someone you don't know.
They have taken everything from you but, you did not think they could take her.
You then realize that you were very wrong.
They didn't take her
They did worse,

They changed her.

Him
Natalie Mar 2014
Him
I barely even know him.
We only met once, but that one night was better than I thought it could be.
We talked for a while after that night.
I waited for you to ask, but you never did.
We stopped talking.
I tried to get over you.
And now I might see you again.
I have handled rejection before,
but I don't think I could deal with it from you.

Gone
Natalie Mar 2014
I woke up and looked at your side of the bed and thought that you must have gone downstairs early.
Then I remembered that you weren't here.
That you left.

Come back
Natalie Mar 2014
The first time we met
That one perfect night
we danced, we laughed, we talked
The last time we met
That awful night
you apologized, I cried, you left.

Even though I know you're gone I can't help, but hope that you will come back.

The Art ofAttraction
Natalie Feb 2014
It is said that opposites attract.
Maybe that is why we are attracted to those who are opposite of
what we need,
What we deserve.
That makes us odd creatures that are craving rejection
disguised as love.
This is a sad and cruel fate,
But then again that is--
the art of attraction.

What love feels like
Natalie Feb 2014
Loving
How he makes you laugh, even when he's not around.
How you smile when you think about him.
All the late night texting you shared.
All the thoughts of what your future might be like.

Recalling
The first text, the first meeting
the first time you knew you liked him.

Remembering
The last conversation,
the last word you said to him.
What it felt like
when you realized he didn't like you the way you liked him.
The pain, heartache and tears.

Hoping
he wants you back
find someone knew
forget the pain you feel every time you see him

Wondering
If he thinks of you
If he is with someone else
If you'll ever get over him

Every time
Natalie Feb 2014
Every* time I say, "things will be different, he will be different".
Every time I convince myself that it's true
And every time I get my hopes.
So, every time it hurts when I realize

He's not coming.
