i thought we were friends, close ones at that, but i suppose it was just a trick of the light.

i just hope you know that you're not the only one seeing things differently; cause i could never look at you the same.

i've always been alone.
i guess people caring, has just never been a norm for me

life is full of unexpected happenings; sometimes it'll throw storms at you, and some days it'll fill your week with sunny days, and a slight breeze. that's why you have certain people in your life; while one will comfort you, make you feel at ease, another may bring you back down to earth, let you put together the pieces. some people are lucky enough to have one person, who can do all of that. some people aren't lucky at all, and find themselves in the company of individuals, not fitting any of the criterias, period. but you work with what life gives you, and you work through tough times, and no matter how lucky or unlucky you are; you get what you've been destined to get. you just gotta believe in it.

even the happiest of people, can get swamped down a hole of dismay.
*it's just a little harder.

where the wild things roam, we find ourselves in. we dream of the places we've never even been, and we hope for things that may never come,
but most of all; we want the ones who don't return the same love.

be like water.
still and calm as a pond.
strong and harsh as a storm.
even when it all feels like mud.

i can't help you fight your demons all the time,
when i'm still in a furious battle with my own.

i'd never felt that kind of love; the one
where it consumes you and makes you feel whole.
i never felt that, until i met you.

maybe i don't know you at all, but ****. every part of me wants to. i want to know all the itty bits of you, the things that piece you together. i want to know your favourite colour, your worst nightmares, your wildest dreams. i want to know what keeps you up at night, what song you'll leap for at the sight of a karaoke machine, and about the time you broke your arm at just thirteen. i want to know you on your good days, your bad days, and everything in between. and i know it can be hard, i know it's hard to trust people, but i am willing to wait. i'm willing to wait for you to let me in, because you, my darling, are worth it. you're worth the heartache, and the times i have to push back when you try to distance yourself from me, and you're worth the nights you call me and wake me up because you need someone to just ramble to. your worth is undeniably large, and that says a lot, because i wouldn't do this for simply anyone. you're special. in my mind, you are. you're an extraordinary human being full of talent and wonder and yes, flaws, but you are perfect in my vision, you; you're you. and that is everything to me.

leaves are always falling down from the trees, straying from the branches, but i never thought that you would leave me. i may have thought plenty of others would, but you- you caught me by surprise. i didn't expect your departure. i didn't expect you to just walk out the door, without a word. it was like you wanted to, like you always did, deep down inside, and i had just given you the means to escape. escape from what? my love? my care? maybe it was too much for you. maybe i was in, and you were out there, far, far out there, and it was all simply an illusion that you wanted me. that you wanted this. i suppose in that way, i'm just a sapling. i believed you were going to stay with me forever, through even the coldest of the seasons. all the eldest of trees told me you wouldn't, but i believed, for once more in my life. and i was let down, yet again.

i guess i'll have to get used to this continuous torment, until i find the ones that do stay.

i just hope it's soon. i've never hoped so much for anything.

i just want somebody to stay.

you don't miss him, no. you miss the feeling; the feeling of just being loved. feelings fade, though, and believe me. it won't hurt so much some day. one day. maybe it'll sting every time you see him with someone new, but you'll be okay. you'll get through the day. you, too, will find somebody new, and they will fulfill that want. that need for love.
*to just be loved.

have you ever met someone, and they're so ******* perfect in every way. maybe they aren't perfect to everybody, but to you they're just absolutely amazing. the way they laugh, and smile, and talk, and think, and look, and just everything about them, and everything they do just keeps amazing you.

have you ever met someone like that?

but if you really missed me, you wouldn't have pulled away for so long. i can't chase after you; it's like searching for rain as i stand in the desert, and i don't want to spend my whole life searching for something, that doesn't seem to want to be found, so when you're ready;
*you can come find me.

i would swim all the oceans in this world
if it meant you would smile back at me again.

i tried so hard to make you feel like you could open up. i did it a lot with you, to see if it would make you feel more comfortable. i tried to showcase how nonjudgemental i was, how open minded i was, how willing i was to be friends with you again. maybe it just showed how stupid, and naïve, and pathetic i was. and maybe now you think i was never who you thought i was.

but i was always me. always. that's always been who i am. and this is also who i am. i take chances, i give people second chances, and. i wanted to spare another, but if i wake up in the morning, and i can't.

i cannot apologize for that.

a zombie i am, walking through the light of day without a worry or care, of what other people think cause i'll just eat all their thoughts;
*their brains.
