You said that after all these times, it’s always been me
But yet, I know that if you were placed in a room with all of us
I would not be the one you run to
Would not be the one you glace at first
Would not be the one who catches your eye

You'd look at her
in the blink of an eye

The best thing that's ever happened to me,
cannot and will not
be the thing that tears me down
Michelle Jun 2020
I hope you never forget how much I love you
never forget how much you mean to me
never forget that I would cut any distance between us if I could
you will always be my everything
i hope it doesn't hurt you when i'm no longer around. I'll love you from beyond, forever

Meera
you inhale tragedies
and exhale poetry
From where do you get your perseverance?
Michelle Jun 2020
No one warns you about how bad it feels
how bad it feels to fall back into your worst habits
how bad it feels to wake up hurting
how bad it feels to witness yourself become the person you swore you'd never be again
how bad it feels to watch the one thing you love slip right through your fingertips
No one told me it would hurt this bad
I want to stop hurting
please make it stop
Michelle May 2020
For nights on end,
I thought about the questions you failed to answer
questions you failed to know about
but i took everything within me to ask them now
i wish i never opened that window of conversations
i would not be hurting right now
Michelle May 2020
"So can you please tell me why you feel like this?", she asked
"It's when-"
"You know how-"
"Have you ever just-"
...nothing

how do you explain the pain you don't understand?
when all you want to do is make it stop
How do you stop the pain that just creeps up on you?
How do you talk about the pain that comes back to **** you when spoken about?
how do you explain the unexplainable?

"You ever have those days where-"
"Do you ever feel like-"
"Or maybe ever just-"
... forget it

it's like maybe the aching doesn't exist to anyone if it isn't said aloud
the pain doesn't come back for more when its left alone
but for the love of everything good,
i wish it'd stop coming back to me
I just wanted the pain to stop
