It hurts to know you aren't here anymore
To not feel your lips move across my neck
And up to my lips
It hurts to know that I'll never hear "I love you"or all those sweet lies you once told me while smiling at me
It hurts to know that I'll never feel the warmth from your embrace
Since all i know now is the cold from you not being here
It hurts to know that you are dead and gone.
But I'm still stuck here wishing i was still with you.

Theres nothing wrong with me
I have a normal and happy family
But for some strange, strange reason
My head hurts no matter the season
My mouth is pained from smiling
The heaping weight keeps piling
How long will I have to tell my lies
I can see the distaste in their eyes
My heart is underwater slowly sinking
My mind is full of wishful thinking
All my tears and pain unseen
Hear the words I really mean
“Others have it worse” they’d say
But its getting harder every day

Plunging down into freezing waters
Every single time without supporters
I can hear the things that aren’t there
I just want to disappear somewhere
Falling in my dreams, landing in a heap
See, all this really plagues my sleep
But its alright, I’ll just say ‘I’m fine’
Looking up and down to pass time
Watching birds fly on their wings
Feeling a pull on my heart strings
A lantern’s glow and a candle lit
They’re growing dimmer bit by bit
Try and try and try as I might
But I still can’t reach the light
Still can't reach the light.

I have finally given up on you
It hurts me more than you think it does
No point in looking backwards
I tried everything to save our love
It takes two trying for love to work

Wave your **** eye-roll, salute my attempt at least. We can no longer please; perhaps we never have. I’ll hold up, to when we next meet; I’ll shake your hand. I’ll be waiting for you, myself, when I used to be able to command the man. The man with no new qualifications, other than to displease. Hold your judgement please, lord. You're biting to hard, with your golden teeth.
God hurts

Substantial are the ways to show love
To feel love and let it sink in
Let it run in the veins and tear through the heart

Touches now tattoos of memories
So sweet and lingering
So searing and painful

Greater than a God above
I worshiped you and gave in
Sewed together my pieces to once more be torn apart

I could always love you with ease
You who could never love me or anything
What love is this that leaves me empty but feeling full
lost in the in between
lost in your eyes
lost between my head and my heart

my head tells me go
my hearts tells me stay
but its not that cliche

i feel trapped in the guilt that follows me everywhere

every conversation lingering in my head
hours on end
thinking how i can end it

how can i tell you
without thinking about the endless ways
that you can end your life

separately
we are perfect
together
we are toxic
a viscous eruption of anger and spite
distance is our enemy and our friend
"im sorry, baby. forgive me."
and my naive brain always forgives

but im lost in the in between
until the day
i found my way out of the maze
and found myself.
glad i dont have this toxicity anymore. it was becoming unbearable

Another lonesome, night has passed
The same moon, gives random smile
Lost count of my sleep, being days
Memories rush in pile by pile

Thoughts linger of those left
The four corners of my room, cry with me
No one comes now for chats over tea
There is nothing left, in my eyes to see

Pale, flushed, dark begs hung by
These eyes have grown tired of blinking
Rush through these windows, O daring wind
And carry me away from this sinking pain

Take me to a place, where feelings don't exists
Away where I can forget everyone
Put me, then, in a deep deep sleep
Or just shoot me with a gun

Once and for all, these eyes would shut for good
Even my memories won't pile to project
Tears would no longer wet my pillows
Everything known, I'll just forget...

Why now?
Out all these months, All this time
Why is it now that you think its okay to jump back into my life?
You vanish, I cut off everything for you
I left my heart behind in the dirt
I buried my love six feet underground
To forget you, like you forgot me
But here you are again
Acting as if nothing has changed
My phone gleaming with your messages
And I respond to you in a heartbeat
I have no self control
You're stirring up a storm
Though you don't know the effect
This intoxicating feeling you give to me
With a single word or a call
It sends my heart into flutters
I love you
No, I did love you
I need to stop this now

I can't fall back in again not after everything
Not after what I went through to get out
It hurts too much to try again
but everything about you draws me in
Your striking blue eyes that seem to mirror the sky
Long wavy hair, in a Carmel brown
Soft to the touch, gently running through my fingers
It sends a shiver down my spin to think
But its forbidden to return to that place
To that state of mind and time
We removed that memory
Along with our existence
So why is it now
Why now have you come back?


Please don't come back
because I am still
Unable to Resist

He is my bestfriend.

You are out of this world,
you are too good to be true,
but you are genuine, sincere and real.
You are a beautiful human,
i wouldn't get by without you.
I never want there to be a time where
you aren't in my life.
I fear that, i dread that.
You get me through everything,
my confidence used to be underground,
but you've built it so high its sailing above the clouds.
Not to throw myself a pity party,
but i have had a very rocky life at times.
although wonderful at times,
excruciating.
It now feels all okay.
You give me hope and make me see the bright side to things.
You have created this monster of a laugh inside me,
which only came out when i met you.
You have taught me how to be fun and be myself,
You have given me a different perspective on life,
because anything seems possible when you're around.
You appreciate me, respect me, listen to me and boost my ego.
I love every thing about you.
I wouldn't change your flaws even if i could.
There is no one like you.
Being away from you hurts,
because in my head i know i'm around people that are nothing compared to you.
I will choose you.
Always.
I sincerely have your best interest at heart.
I care for you more than i do myself.
I don't want to sound cliche,
but you really are the best thing that has ever happened to me.
You are honestly so incredible.
I would be nowhere near where i am today if i hadn't met you.
We have dedicated huge portions of our lives towards helping each others.
I knew from the moment i saw you in 6th grade,
that i wanted to get to know you.
I remember it like it was yesterday.
And that day was just the beginning for our friendship.

He is my bestfriend.
