I suppose I have an apology
To the loved one whom I didn’t know,
The soft anchor that I couldn’t let go.

I will hold your hand, even as I drown
In an ocean, all alone.

Oh if it's true that only love can make a home
then why is it, when I'm surrounded, I feel so alone?
And if a set of walls and a roof don't mean a thing
then why is losing it releasing such a heavy storm within?

And He said
Hold on
Don't you let go
Stay strong
Somewhere along this road you'll find a home again.

I'm tired
It feels like everything I once held dear
it slowly fades away
Give me soms quiet
and let the moments turn to memories of those early summer days.

He'd give her the constellations
bound amid every flower
to hold her close

he holds my hand
and spends the night
chasing after dying stars
he smiles
falling for the moon
Savor the taste of medicine only to be drunk by the few.
Incented by the scent of a peace that few will know, and fewer hold.

Bittersweet blossoms fold to the earth in showery haze,
He cries of days long gone. Relishing the birth of memory's daze.
Praying for the pill to find the end of his endless sound.

Astounded, he lays:
Two way mirror perception, but with no reflection.
Expectations drive the nail deeper into false perfection's mentions of a better way.

Deeper, so the bittersweet blossoms may bloom,
And pretend to be the medicine to be drunk by the few.
The few we hold will hold the peace we don't

Love isn’t meant to be a heavy thing.

Yet every time I fall it seems to crush me.

And all of a sudden, I was beginning to lose my breath and the room was spinning.

But then again, maybe it wasn’t love I was falling into, just the suffering in your eyes and the way you held yourself throughout the lonely nights.
This poem is about falling in love with someone, but it is not what you expected. You think you’re falling in love with them, but you’re falling in love with their toxic ways. Leave a comment for feedback and enjoy reading.❤️❤️

i want to feel the warmth of that room again
where i used to never be scared to lay my head
until the night everything changed
and it changed us
the room was no longer warm
i couldn't bare to even close my eyes
they took the warmth from me
and they took it from you
as the food burned
along did a piece of us both
they say as time goes by it gets easier
but they forgot to mention a part of you will hold onto that night forever

It's a scary time.
A time where there's a lot
we don't understand.
We can't even take each other's hand.
But I don't need to hold your hand
To make me feel safe.
Just one look in your eyes
Is all it takes.
