Things I'll Never Say
Poems

We've barely even touched this new year.
We certainly didn't touch it together.
You always knew I was the thunder and lightning,
Not the calming before the storm.
You knew this,
and you said you loved me anyways.
But tonight a new year began,
and I couldn't find you anywhere.
Because my storm came crashing down today,
at a time when your sun was rising.
And this was too much for you.
It poured rain all night, literally.
But the real storm hit when I got home.
Crawled into bed and for the first time in years
Your arms weren't around me.
And this
This is the LAST time you break me
The last year I spend praying you and I will be enough
The last time I run back to you thinking you're the only one who can love me the way I deserve.
I deserved you here, tonight.
You were gone.
They say with love comes compromise and understanding.
But to you I was the enemy.
Nothing to understand , its just who I am.
You knew me better than anyone.
The only person on this planet who can break me down in seconds.
You know all of my triggers and yet you use them against me
instead of trying to build me up.
I'm tired of being shamed for who I am
when you know every part of me and claim you still love me.
Then come back with, "but why do you do this.?"
As if you have no idea.
But this is the last time.
I'll love myself this year.
In all the ways you couldn't.
I'll love myself for me this time.
-i have you to thank for that
I woke up this morning and it wasn't a bad dream. He wasn't here.
