a year. 12 months.
almost.

short of the milestone,
something changed.

i tried to ignore, but
still, ending.

yet maybe it didn't.
or maybe

almost a year, 11 months
led to comfort

that i fear i wont find again.

Your coffee rings still
stain
the kitchen counter.

Pinned maps
of the vacation
we never took
         hang
                             crooked
  now.

Our pictures on the wall.
Shrines
to what we once
were.

I hold your forgotten
t-shirt —
this stubborn map
of you.

My fingers hover over
the 'send' button,
before
falling
into
my
lap.

Night seeps through
these windows
and your memory
burns.

Flashing
like
broken
film.

Remember me well,
These are the last lines.
Suppose I was a wind,
I blew through your life.
Or a rain,
Flooding beneath you.
Then the earth absorbed the water,

I disappeared...

You got just what you want,
And that's what makes it wrong.
Who am I? Someone that you just barely know,
Believe me you will never ever know.
Oh, I loved and hated at the same time,
You and I were the cracks that matched, but even us shattered with time.
Fell in love, broken into the pieces we will never know.

Without you,
Neither night nor day, no moon nor a single star.
Can guide me to your heart.
I'm lost in the dark.
Missing you every night.
If I got you right,
You will be mine only when we're far apart.

Sometimes it feels off,
Wasn't supposed to end us both.
Getting cold in your shadow
Letting myself cool off.
Angry to us both,
But there's no need for more.

With the best version of you,
In another universe.

i miss the comfort of her warmth
i hate how avoidant she is
i miss her kisses on my skin
i hate how she lies to me
i miss how loved she made me feel
i hate the secrets she keeps from me
i miss how she looked at me with her beautiful eyes
i hate how she avoids eye contact now
i miss her laugh
i hate how i believed her even though i knew she lost feelings
i miss her affection
i hate how she doesnt try to keep me in her life
i miss the time we spent together talking about our future
i hate how easily she replaced me
i miss her touch
i hate her attitude towards me
i miss how perfect she was
i hate how she gave up on us
i miss her love
i hate her how cold she is towards me
i miss her love poems
i hate the was she makes me feel now
i miss how we cried together
i hate how she doesnt understand me
i miss the promises she made
i hate how she didnt keep them
i miss her scent
i hate how she doesnt love me anymore
i miss how excited she was to see me
i hate how sick i feel without her
i miss when she told me about her day
i hate how stupid i feel for believing we were going to last forever
i miss how special she made our love feel
i hate how much i trusted her
i miss how i felt like i was made for her
i hate that she made me believe that
i miss how much i smiled because of her
i hate seeing her frowny smile at me
i miss our spark
i hate how easily it disappeared
would give anything to go back to the way we were

to spend the rest of my life missing you

the boy loved God so much
he had no love left for me
i poured my love into his overflowing soul
and ended up in a biblical drought of my own making
it’s hard to love the source of your lack of love

Pictures of her hang quietly on my wall
Carelessly tracing her fingertips along my jaw
Gift wrapped chocolate
Secret handwritten letters tucked in my pocket
Unspoken words
Never to be heard

This feeling of belonging
Unfamilar, but sweet
It enveloped my soul
Making me feel oh so complete

This feeling, so fleeting
So bitter and painful
All I wanted was something real
But I always end up with with someone hateful

In the end, I’m glad you left
We weren’t meant to be
But I still think about you, sometimes
As my own bittersweet memory
You never really loved me
this is about a toxic ex. idk I'm so tired
