Poems

Thank You
I wanted
more
for you
than I wanted for myself.
But you showed me
You didn't
care
and
I wasn't
enough.
Daily routine was your
happiness
and me
pretending
I was happy.
Never did I think my
love
for you
Would **** me in the
end.
But I died. I didn't care
Lost in an unfamiliar world.
Left alone figuring my way through.
So many drunk nights. So many mistakes.
Morals down the drain.
Cold tile floors
my comfort at night
But
warmer
than your words.
One week passed. Then two.
Born again in
Whiskey and Joints.
Week three was better
Week four was a realization.
Thank you!
For your
breakup-text
Thank you for
letting me go.
I would have stayed,
Even though I was
unhappy.
I would have done anything
To put
you first.
Unlike you did for me.
Thank you for
choosing yourself
and letting me
discover
what happiness is.
Week five has proven progress.
I'm first.
You wanted
more
for yourself
Than I was
willing to give
and I
show
you now
that I
always cared
But now I
never
will again.
