There in a small room,
the writer lays on her bed
writing little stories, wheels turning in her head.
Across the moon sky lays the reader, lying on her back,
mind waiting for a good book to feed her.
Writer writes broken-hearted
Reader reads with feelings guarded
Coexisting in the same quandary of life
Finding themselves on the opposite ends of a sturdy rope
Woven together with the same fibers of the same hope
Both holding each other in strength from their codependency
Yet their presence might never touch
Their words might never exchange
They live on with their lives as two strangers with a
connection
In a life, in a world, in a love,
so strange.

I am a sponge
To the suffering
Of others
Willfully
Sinfully
I will drink away your pain
I lick the hurt from my lips
But there is a stain
Growing ever larger
A hole
Deep in my soul
I give all I can
And strive not to take
I was a hurricane
Now all I feel
Is soft love and dull pain
I am fertilizer
Deep in the soil
Decaying
Nourishing others
By depriving myself
Stitching together torn souls
In exchange for my own

Trust is sorta like a piggy bank it's good 'til it busts
You stop being self centered and you start thinking about us
but please take your time, wait a second, please don't rush
just one slip up and the relationship will end up being crushed
No orange but the apple doesn't fall very far from the tree
But orange ya glad that you ended up finding your cup of tea
You went from being lonely to being half a piece
Having so many arguments and all you really want is peace
The codependency and negativity is not good for you
You rushed into a relationship but you never knew
That you need to assert your boundaries
Cause, people are bound to cross them when and however they please
Listen closely
This is one of DJ Khaled's keys
So just implement it if you want to be happy,
Set a line and don't let anyone cross it
And if they do, calm down and don't through a fit
Just tell them no we have to split I quit
They don't deserve your blood, sweat and tears they should know you're not a blacksmith
But just craft yourself a shield and sword
Communicate with your words
Then you'll be able to be happy even if you end up getting hurt
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!

Don't leave.
I'm tired, I just wanted to lie in bed and know that you're next to me.
You left.
I'm alone, I might as well always be.
The only company is my aching bones and my fractured heart.
I don't know why I was built this way.
Broken from the start, doomed from my first labored breath.
But all I have is this curse,
This constant overwhelming feeling of
a l o n e.
I feel less alone with you.
More alone with them.
But it's always somewhere,
The feeling with claws
Used to climb up my throat
Slice into and manipulate my vocal cords.
"Don't leave."
I'll be fine alone, maybe I should be.
But the feeling's teeth and claws are too deep into my flesh.
I need you.
And the feeling says that you don't need me.

Please remember to break me gently
Take your sharp tongue and slice me tenderly
With your offenses destroy me lovingly
Never allow yourself to confuse abuse with love. Love yourself above all

There is nothing more love can teach me.
So how can I skip class discreetly?...
She'll say that I think love is beneath me,
But if only it was that easy.
Unfortunately, because it's just something I see,
I will not receive a grade of empathy.
Love is becoming too pushy for me
And it's holding my consciousness in captivity.
When in my heart, I know it should be free.

You burned down my villages
You pillaged my temple
Only to conquer the land you desired
Until you heard of the nearby Empire
The one with towering walls
Where they say gold is abundant
A new conquest awaits you
While I'm left to rebuild
