I’m writing this in between Stints of self-medicating When the memories scream the loudest When the heartache feels the deepest This feeling it feels bottomless An unfathomably hollow emptiness A deep dark abyss From which I can’t escape Let me start by saying That I feel like a ***** up A self-destructive piece of **** You were the only one that kept me grounded My heart’s beating too fast write now Even though I know you’ll never see this I have an uncontrollable angst You kept me sane in this crazy ****** up world You were my best friend You know everything about me Even my ****** up daddy stories The ones I don’t tell anyone about We almost had a kid together It was the most terrifying moment of my life And I still haven’t told anyone about it ‘Cause I thought I’d have you to hold me during the nightmares But I’m a complete **** up (Nothing good ever stays with me) Not my father, not you Yeah, everything I touch turns to **** “Light up till the pain gone” Now I’m quoting rap songs But I’m inconsolable and it’s true I haven’t come down since you left me I wish you could’ve seen the pain in my eyes I wish you could’ve heard my cry for help Every time I drank myself into oblivion All I needed was for you to take it all away I wanted you to fight for us To put your beautiful pride down For just one second and to realize That I would go to the ends of the universe                                                                                          for you I would've swept my self-numbing aside Not for you but for us I believed in us and all we were But I was for us and you were for you These past few weeks We haven’t spoken a word So the dreams keep getting longer And the aching keeps on aching I keep telling friends funny stories My best memories throughout recent years And all of them include you My best memories are with you I realize you don’t want anything to do with me But I hope you at least look back and smile I pray that you cherish our memories .. Please don’t throw our love out of your consciousness completely. Love, L
