While you two enjoy each other's company,
I'm looking on, trying not the hurt,
trying not to show my tears,
while you two flirt.

Tamanna
something about the way your words
roll off your tongue
as stars i'd watch to no end,
while my words
are a fleet of insects, crawling out of my throat
antsy to escape to freedom,

or the way daffodils
grow in every single crack of your spine,
while my spine
contains a variety of weeds sprouting before my eyes,

something about the way you smile in your sleep,
even when the darkest of nightmares arise,
while my dreams are nonexistent,
as much as i'd like them to be,

something about you makes me hate you,
for you are the most lovable creature out there.
i am indifferent about this

Every time I see a Map,
I look for your island.
Your lovely, rustic, historic island
The island which you shall escape
And I touch it,
As though,
To pluck you from the sky
And hold you close.
Five hundred fifty-seven kilometers
Is simply too far,
Even in peak route efficiency,
For me not to miss you.
I miss you
Albeit knowing
That mere inches of distance
Between you and me
Would not really make a difference
You live inside your head, while I live inside my room. I guess that is too far.
when you touch the soft bark of a fallen tree.
                Do you think of me ?
when you sit by the sea, and trace the sand.
                 Do you think of me ?
Does the setting sun remind you of the days
we spent hiding beneath the covers ?
The night's bright and the stars ; they sing.
i misplaced my semicolon for you.
Did you even notice ?
Does it even bother you that i still
love you.
Can you hear me now .
Because when i see that fallen tree i think of you.
My fingerprints in the sand, draw your features.
The fading light from the sun, oh how it saddens me,
oh how it reminds me.
I am sad; do you even notice ?

Every time you call I'm filled with joy
For it's one more time I get to hear your sweet voice.
I love to hear your laugh.
I swear I can see it through the phone.
It's what brightens my life
From dusk ti'l dawn and morning ti'l night.

As night starts to set
Butterflies crawl in my stomach and never seem to go away.
Then comes this awkward silence that so many like to break.
But this kind is different.
It's the kind of silence that you don't mind having around
The kind that lets you know
the person you love is just on the other side
Saying without words, I love you.
When you lose someone, someone you care for so much. When they break your heart. Its the hardest thing you can ever go through. The shortness of breath, the lonely nights, sitting alone just listening for the phone to ring, or maybe that knock on the door. But its not going to come. No matter how much time goes by, you think your getting better, your not. You suddenly get a flashback of memories, you hear a song that makes you break down and cry, and then, it hits you again. Over again. Like taking a knife to your chest. You collapse. You want to just run away. You try so hard to get them back. It never works. Your left there alone waiting and waiting. Waiting just to here their voice one more time again. Hoping that they will just come out of no where and be with you. Like nothing had ever happened at all, like your in a scene from a dream. But it doesn’t. Your their still.Waiting. Sad. Alone. Helpless. You could move on you've had so many chances. But you don't want to. This one is different. This person truly means something to you. This one is special and you don't want to let them go. But you have to.It is a choice less choice.Life moves on, however your momentarily stuck in time. Stuck in that moment. You can't stop thinking of them. Don't give up. Never give up. In the end if it's meant to be it will work. You'll sit there letting time fly by. People get older, seasons change, and then. All of the sudden you hear it. The noise, the distinct sound, the voice. You know exactly who it is. You turn around hoping its not a dream, and then, you see her. Its real. Its night, and it hasn't stopped raining for hours. Your crying but she can't tell the difference between the tears, and the trickles of water running so smoothly down your face. You look around. Your sitting on a porch. You talking you don't know what about. The emotions are running endlessly. And then. She collapses. Almost hitting the floor but like you’ve always promised your their to catch her. Shes emotional, always helping others, being the one to talk to, never talking to. It has all hit her at once. The weight of the entire world truly is resting on her shoulders and it has decided to wake up. Nothing can help the medicine the friendships, the space she tried to put in between you. Nothing has worked. She tried to forget about you, tried to move on, thinking things would be better. But in the end you are the same, in the end you both have been stuck in time. Motionless. Hearing my voice has forced you to go over the edge. Like gasoline in a fire, you have exploded. Taken Enough You want me back but you can't take me. You don't know what to do. How to handle. How to understand what the hell is going on. But it's ok. I'm here now, and everything will be alright. Two heads are always better then one, either to succeed or split the emotions of a stressful life that can't be handled. Im here. I am not going anywhere. Were back sitting collapsed on the porch both soaking wet. Rain and emotions are pouring out all over.Were silent but we are holding each other tight, never to let go. Its then I speak. Words, so perfect, so passionate that they can't be described. And then you respond with a simple. I love you too. This is not a dream, a heaven, a vision of something that will never happen. It is true, it has happened. It is uncontrollable and you can't stop it. No one can. It is impossible. You never truly know what you have until it is gone, or until you have been able to find it. The solution is simple don't ever give up. Its is meant to be. It is true. It is passion. It is beauty. It is total confusion. It is... True

I’m too young to be so empty
My heart should be full
and waxing,
not waning like the moon.
I poured out so much in those eight months
I gave you my heart and soul
And after it was done and said
You acted like it was just a trifle
Like I was just a silly girl
I don’t want to be some
Brief spans in your life
Where someday
You’ll forget my favorite color.
Where someday
You’ll forget my last name.
How could you
throw it away?
How can you
be sincerely okay?
I feel so broken
I don’t know who I see in the mirror

Just a shadow
Of your girl.

I wish you missed me like i missed you
You easily found someone new
I don't know how to let you go
I miss the days we would play in the snow

I still love you with all my heart
I used to think nothing could tear us apart
Almost 2 years since I saw you last
Here I am still living in the past

Why can't I let you go
Only you would know
This is killing me inside
If only our paths would collide

Replacing you isn't as easy as you think
I wish I could bring you back with a wink
I will never let you go
Just letting you know..
