You came to stay
from the very first day

And I let you in
Cause with you, I felt peace within

You bring me happiness
when I am buried in sadness

you can make me smile anytime
as if i've made lemonade of life's lime

But my goals you inhibit
Cause you make me addicted

And I'll fight, fight and resist
to let myself taste a little bit

But once again I fail
another one you win

A process I thought I was gonna nail
but this feeling of a sin
is just going up the scale

The perfect mix of good and bad
Is litterally the best thing I've ever had

In this zone, with just you and me
I hope that none else will see

How many tablespoons I ate

Of the most delicious chocolate spread
Funny, dramatic, relateable poem.

We fight and seperate when life's a bore;
There is an emptiness within our core.
It is as if our pain is sweeter when
We're young – it doesn't suit us anymore.

The next time he killed me
I was ready for it
so I filmed it.
And whilst it still stung
I was able to ride the trauma
kept my good side to the camera
and the transition
whilst still in essence 'dying'
was kinda exciting.

I think the third time
might be even better
by some measure.
I'll have to wait
and see.

You think it's going to be your way or the highway but that's not how it's going to be.
You'd better change your way of thinking if you want to continue to be married to me.
You are not always going to get your way.
You'd better learn that if you want me to stay.
You need to learn that marriage is a two-way street, it's not a one-way street.
When it comes to our marriage, I'm not going to take a back seat.
You don't care about my dreams and desires, you think it's all about you.
If you don't change, I'll have this marriage annulled, that's what I'll do.
You've started laughing because you actually think I'm not serious.
When I talk about this problem, you think it's not worthy to discuss.
It won't be your way or the highway but that is something that I have failed to make clear.
I no longer want you for a wife so I'm going to pack my bags and get the hell out of here.
EVEN THOUGH THIS POEM IS FICTIONAL, I REALLY WOULD LEAVE SUCH A PERSON

One day i will not need love anymore.
I will not rise to open the door cause that sound i am hearing is all in my heard.
You loved him the way fragile kids love candy.
You wrote songs and letters about him.
You still sleep with his shirt  to smell the cologne on it.
Anxiety will not let me breathe.
Because i was a fool in love.

When i caught you cheating.
You made my heart bleed.
I attended a nearby funeral procession.
I joined mourners there to cry my heart out.
Than i realized i never loved you.
I felt pity for you and couldn't let you go.
You were suicidal and lost everyone close to you.
I did not want to see you in that dark place.
So i stay to keep watch on you.

It became a devil snare for me.
I got trapped in a situation where you always came first.
I tolerated your toxic behavior.
I had to support your childish trait.
Find myself accepting your drunkenness.

I really wanted it to be you.
I so badly wanted it to be you that i will walk with the the alter.
Until i understood i was never in your plans.
I was your cry shoulder in your darkest moments.
You had someone to entertain you daily.
Until you get bored and came running to me with your problems.

I was never a boyfriend in your eyes.
You loved me because i reminded you of your father.
So instantly i was a father figure you wanted to uplift you..

I loved you when no else did.
I sacrificed my sanity to se you smile.
I can't put into words what that did to my heart.
I was hurt so deeply that i thought i will never love again.

Now that the dust has passed and settled.
I found somebody to help me find myself.
Who appreciate and values my love for her.
I bought a dress and a wedding ring for you.
This person will wear them in your behalf.

I saw that's there's nothing painful like regret.
Wondering what could have been.
In this love month you are sending me messages for forgiveness.
I am preparing a wedding for myself.
I can't worry about spilled milk.
While i have a platinum in front of my eyes.

Finally i realized that i was never asking for too much.
I was with a wrong person to give me affection.
You were with me because i was your therapist.
I am with someone that love and support me whole heartedly.
You gave me a lesson in life..
That don't stay in a relationship because you are afraid of what will happen to another person.
Stay in a relationship because you are loved and appreciated.
Knowing someone out there is praying for you.
I am a living testimony of it.
I have found that one whonis os dearest to my heart and soul.

I tend to romanticize, 
I romanticize friendships and love and all relations,
Makes them a little more than what they seem,
Doesn't it?
And maybe that's what the flaw of romanticizing life is,
Once you start romanticizing it you ignore the practicality,
That the real-life beholds,
One part of you stuck at the expectations,
And other tries to avoid the befalling of this little kingdom,
Your mind survives in,
So you romanticize bad memories too,
As if you were really dead every second someone scolded you,
Or crumpled your ***** of life,
And in this loop of romanticizing, you end up hurting everyone,
So you tell yourself to wake up,
You force yourself to be awake,
And when you finally are,
You see there never has existed a premise,
Where you were playing your orchestra.
It feels to me the world I live in is crumbling down and I am washing away with it.

Did you realized that every drama is about love?
Don't you think love is dramatic?
