so you say that we are from the people
who buried their dead
with flowers.

and you say that when
the world ends, we will simply learn to fall
apart.

i wonder,
if there will still be love when we convince
ourselves
that everything is still alright.

but how can we love the children that
we lie to…
and how can we trust those who
we forsake…

when you look me in the eyes next time,
or when you look at that spot, right beside
me,

i will remember our dead,
and i will remember
how you never truly meant to leave flowers.
stop gun violence. rest in peace.

Every time a heart breaks
It grows a little harder
Yağmur Kaya Dec 2018
When you feel like all come to an end
Remember me, please
Just remember
Remember the time that I hold your hand
for the first time
Then I kissed your lips
You said it was fine
You're the only one, that I want
to be touched by, or to be loved
Then I touched you, then I loved
More and more, it didn't stop

Remember, remember the time that I told
I told you everything will be alright
Nothing is consistent, not even our love
You got ******* first, but then you got
That even our love
will eventually die

Remember
Remember when I hold you so tightly
December, I think it was a cold and snowy
You said "God this must be heaven!"
I said "But Satan was also an angel."

Remember
Remember all of those times
I was so blind, I was so dark!
I couldn't see your beauty, not enoughly!
Because "This world is a hell" I thought
"Nothing can fix it, nothing can solve"

I was no good to you
I just soaked up your shine
I needed to tell you
But you thought our love is divine

I couldn't say that, not to your face
I had to leave, so I just left
"Why?" you screamed "Why?" you said
"You took my heart, isn't this theft?"
"I'm sorry darling, we've come to an end"
You said "Why? We loved each other
Now you're saying to me just don't bother
Leave me be, I'll be gone
And that will be how our story get done"
"Yes", I said "Yes I will leave
And that'll be the end of everything I feel"

I had to lie, I've got to lie!
Or I could never, never be gone!
You think I'm selfish, I've gone blind
You're wrong, but I can't tell that dear
'Cause remember
Remember what I told
I said everything will eventually die
For your good, now I have to die
Believe me, not our love

Why her
Why her
Why anyone other than me
Me-the young girl who loves you unconditionally
The fragile girl who cares for you so deeply
The one girl who understands your broken happiness
The girl who gave her all to you
Gives her all to you

She said she could love you better
She said you trusted her more
She said she knows you better
After a week?!
She had convinced you that I can't love you
If I can't love myself
***** she called me
****
Worth less than dirt
Do you think she loves herself?
Can you say you love yourself?
No-you can't
But
I know you can love
I've seen it
Felt it
Believed it
Basked in its radiance
Bring it back to me.

Why her
Why her
Why anyone other than me
How could you touch her
How could you let your lips
Touch anyone else's
When I would treat you like a god
If that's what you want
Beg at my hands and knees
For you to use me
Protect me
Because there is no one above you
With your flaws
Your mistakes
There is no one above you

I
Am mad at you.
I hate being mad at you
Hate being mad at you
Part of me is so hurt
That I wish I could hurt you back
This anger sets fire to my lungs
And I know that when I speak to you,
Smoke escapes my lips
So I try
To keep my mouth shut!
I am trying to suffocate the fire
But the fire is suffocating me too
If I could stop the fire from breathing I would
The fire would die
But so would I
I am dying
I can't tell when you are lying

I want to hurt you back
It wouldn't be hard to get someone else
In my bed
On my lips
I feel sick saying that
Sick to my stomach for thinking that
Like how I felt those couple of weeks
When I knew something was wrong
I DID know something was terribly, terribly wrong
I told you I felt something was terribly, terribly wrong
And you spoke with such patients "love, nothing is terribly, terribly wrong"
You lied
I trusted
I know that feeling well
It wasn't a wave of anxiety
It was truth
I wish I didn't trust you so easily
I have never trusted anyone so
Willingly
So lovingly
And you
Took advantage of that

You say you care
But do you really
Don't you dare
Think I'm silly
I'm not fine
I'm not alright
And while you shine
My heart’s as dark as night
You say you love me
But I know its a lie
You tell me to see
But look me in my eye
I've been through this before
I've been hurt by worse
You call me a *****
And I ask for the next verse
You say I'm crazy
And I agree
Not because I’m lazy
But because in my head I feel like a banshee
I'm always screaming for help
Never receiving
I cry and yelp
But I just end up grieving
You say you love me
And expect "love you too"
You turn to me with glee
And I turn to you
All you deserve is “sure you do”
and now you finally feel it too.
Sorry for being inactive

When you say
"Believe me",
I doubt.
You already said it
a hundred times now.
Why would I still
trust you,
when "believe" itself
has "lie" in it?

Letters from Lia Dec 2018
I'm lying if I insist
that I never loved you
I'm lying if I say
that I wasn't happy
when we held hands
I'm lying if I deny
that I'm still
wishing for your
comeback
Just please
Come home, my love
For all the fragile hearts that were left broken and still waiting
