Valentines's Day 2014
It began with a good soaking of my pillow,
A swallow of some pills,
Some drool as I was tripping,
Hitting the snooze button 5 times,
Some more tears to wet the sleeves of my clothes,
Running late,
Driving 14 miles to school in 11 1/2 minutes (don't ask how),
Slept through class,
Sat alone crying in my car for an hour,
Went out to lunch with best friend,
Played a first-person shooter all afternoon instead of homework,
Cried in the bathroom with the door locked for a bit,
All while I'm sure she had the best day without me,
Going to see her girlfriend play Trumpet in a concert,
I currently sit and stare at a necklace I bought her,

Wondering what the **** I'm doing with my life.
The necklace says "Be brave, be true, be special, be you"...
It really only signifies, how little I mean to her and how much better shape her ego is in for her to stand against me.

I am damaged, beyond repair.

Continue
Go on
Keep ignoring the flipping **** out of me
You know how it makes me feel
I've told you a million times
Keep being so ******* inconsiderate
I've never seen someone so inconsiderate
You've put me in so much ******* pain
I haven't slept in 4 days
I hope karma comes back around to you
You need something to bite you in the ***
For all the **** you've done to **** me up.
I've gotten close to killing myself over you.
But maybe you're proving now you're nothing to be upset over.
That I shouldn't even care.
Because why should I need someone who doesn't give half a ****.
Why should I care so much about someone who ****** me over so bad?
I thought I loved you
But not this you.
Not this you, you inconsiderate *****.
Keep going, please. I like the pain.

An old friend of mine I hadn't talked to in over two years,
Asked me today if I ever got the *** change I was talking about.
I remember two years back when I was unsure about myself...
Unsure about my sexuality or who I was born to be.
How uncomfortable I was in my own skin, how unhappy I was with my life.
It was a weird time for me, I felt alienated toward my girlfriend at that time,
I started developing crushes...on...boys, and I didn't know what was going on.
I mean, the thought of loving a guy that way was kind of freaky but,
Sometimes I said "I think I'm gay" and other times I said "There's no way"
But then I just realized- I love people for being people.
I love the people inside, with a preference for females.
And let me say, I fell in love with you.
I did a lot more than fall in love with you.
And when I said I "appreciated your anatomy" it wasn't because I wanted
...to *******.
It was because God, or nature, or whatever made you that way,
and I thought you were beautiful even when you didn't think you were.
Back on the topic of when I thought I was gay,
I just think the thought of taking **** up the *** is a bit too traumatizing.

You know, as I got to know you more, I noticed so many similarities...
You don't believe it anymore but I think we could still be true.
I know that you really, really loved me at one point, so...
Who says you can't love me again? You? Your new realizations?
You loved me once. The way you loved me, I know was not false.
I could read it in your lips, expressions, I could feel your beating heart.
The way we squirmed with hands all over in those moments alone.

P.S. I had a ***** then, too.

Rainedrops down
A windowpane
This is more like windowpain,

True love
Real love
Wholesome love, in love.
Lifetime of love.
Hooked on loving.

Love everything about you.
Love the bad things, too.
Love them because I understand why.
Love them because I can see the thought process.
Love the beauty in your functioning.

Would love to help you...to be your relief from the pressure.
To talk through your life, help reverse confusion of your troubled mind.
Because I get it. I understand. I know your feelings, your reactions, what makes you happy.
You don't see it, but I get it. I know that's not much proof, but
I know you better than I know myself. Better than I know anyone.
Love is the wrong word to describe how I feel about you.
"I care about you" is much too insignificant.
You're the world, to me...
And I feel like nothing, to you.
If only you'd give me another chance some day.
I'd take you on the ride of your life.
