Let's face it.
You did steal me.
But you saved my life
Too. And somewhere in the middle
You showed me a place
So different and beautiful.
I can never get it out
Of my mind.
And I can't get you out
Of there either.
You're stuck in my brain
Like my own blood vessels.

Catch my sight
Heart leaps
Goosebumps form
I saunter over
Intentions in mind
You shy away
Just out of reach
All hope is lost
Why do I even try?

Oh child you say you wish to fall in love?
But all you know of love is that it is a four letter word, that brings people happiness. You have yet to be told of the horror's that have taken place because of love, nor have you been told of how it brings more people down than it lift's up.
No child, you do not wish to fall in love.
You wish for happiness.
Upon wishing for love, you wish for heart break without even realizing it until its much too late.
Wishing for love is oh, so much more than you could even begin to comprehend.
Therefor, child do not wish to fall in love,
wish to fall in happiness.

I had this story in my head
I had this story on my heart
Where you were with me
Even when it all fell apart

I couldn't picture you with anyone else
But Satan is sweet
Giving me memories that never happened
Like the remains of your kiss on my cheek

I told myself I didn't care anymore
Oh a long time ago
But whether this is real
Or a joke
I'm not laughing
I can't get you out of my head

See I had this image
Where we ruled the world
We were just, brave, and true
You were compassionate too
We raised the heirs to the throne
To be as such

One time I had a nightmare
The kind where you wake in a cold sweat
You were asking people to help however they could
You were getting married
To the loveliest of girls

You wouldn't look me in the eye
Not even when I cried
I woke to tears and shaking hands
I prayed that it would never happen again

I tell myself that all I want is your happiness
But then I turn and think that I'm the only one who will make you so content
I want to only think of you when I see you
But I can't get you out of my **** head

GET OUT

I want to sleep
I'm tired but now that I've opened these floodgates I don't know if I'll shut my eyes until dawn

I have pains in my stomach
I feel knives in my ribs

I want you to love me
But you can't if you never did

Take these thoughts from my head
Give them to her
She's done something to deserve them
She's not just a convenience
Like a mat on which mud is scraped from boots
She's in the right place at the right time to love you and to have you love her too

So now again I feel empty
When I told myself I never should
I feel like I've been used
Though you never touched me like the other boys would

My thoughts are muddled
Like the feelings in my chest
As I lay trying to sleep
One day may I find rest

Now I'll stop rhyming like an idiot
Climb out of the valley in my heart
Find a boy one day
Who has the guts to tell me whether or not he loved me from the start

Today i found out that you met somebody else.
I thought i was over you,
I stopped crying at night
Letting the black tears stain my sheets
My chest never ached for you anymore
I never felt like i couldn't breathe
Like all the air was slowly suffocating me
I didn't hear your voice in my head anymore
You'd just became a memory that every once in a while id play back the record i saved of our love.
Instead of breaking down every time i saw your face,
It brought me happiness.
Today i found out that i am replaceable by someone else.
someone better.
It hit me like a bullet to the heart
Thrown against the wall as if a wave brought me out to sea and started to drown me.
As the water filled my lungs
I heard your voice again,
But now its muffled by the water I'm submerged in.
I saw your face for just one second
And then the ocean swallowed me.
I lost it, every inch of myself i lost today. All because you found someone new, cause i was never enough.

As I laid in his arms after the passion,
I placed my head on his chest,
the silence was deafening,
for his heart did not beat for me....
Monica's poetry Jul 2014
Confused,

     You told me you loved me
      You told me you cared
       But you're not here
      Nobody's there to help my soul
      Heal from all the pain that haunts
     Me like a ghost,
         All I have is a bunch of questions,
         questions with no answers...



                       Or do I ?
???

Love is for saps, suckers, and fools,
Love is pointless,
Love is the blues.

Love is cause for all the evil in the world,
Love is the gun,
Love is the girl.

Love is heartbreak and anger and fear,
Love is the pits,
Love is never clear.

Love is pain from the hottest wildest fire,
Love is burning,
Love is our strongest desire.

Love is what ails me every minute of every day,
Love is sickness,
Love is caring anyway.

Love is SO STUPID, it makes no sense,
Love is your touch,
Love is your lips.

Love is in me, though you do not care,
Love is rejection,
Love is not here.

Love is time, even when you don't have it,
Love is far-fetched,
Love is unrealistic.

Love is never real, reliable or true,
Love is someone else,
Love is not you.

I got curious about your past so I sat down for two hours and read every single thing you had ever written
I also discovered every single thing she had written as well
AND!
I managed to see what you had written each other
I sat back and drank my coffee and laughed a spell
Oh you had me at hello
You charming ******* you
and to think I have shared and shared
and to think I opened up my soul
I let you in
For the record, her poetry ***** ***** in comparison to mine, and to anything I ever written for you bled onto the screen like a wounded heart
My blood wasn't clear it was thick and sincere and full of harmonic truth!
Because this isn't just infatuation
this isn't just a **** text message
oh light up my screen every day type of conversation
It was written
It was predicted
and here I am ******* for making such a careless and irrational decision
The nerve! Ugh!
To think I seriously believed
that I was the first
and the first of many was me
but from the looks of her story
it seems the first it was she

You answered my question and I read
right
between
the lines
I'm here for your amusement
and the passing of time

You are so good!
I wonder how many other women you have swooned
How many of us were lured in by your excellent ******* poetry
to have our sorry ***** served on a spoon

You know what? I'll give you the benefit of the doubt
Ill throw my hands in the air and throw in the towl
To think I shed a tear because I really wanted and needed you around somehow

Go ahead and take your bow

The show is over now
Just venting.
I'm pretty angry for no reason and I find it somewhat hilarious. Lol.
