wondering if any of this writing works,
do you see my world,
do you hear my words,
do you ******* pain?

when you leave,
do you carry my thoughts,
do you sing like songbirds,
do you smile like the sun?

if you return,
do you feel satisfied,
do you stare at the art,
do you come back again?
poetry and the poet have a weird relationship.
poetry is like abstract art.
the poet wishes on a shooting star,
while an audience picks their words apart.

i did some reflecting today;
thought about my time with you;
how much i loved you;
but realized I was in love with the future you.
Looking back, I loved u for who u could be, not who you were.

Around every poorly lit street
the ones with cracks in the road
and coin beggars in the shadows
you will find my unwanted poster
a picture with clarity through time
from child to adolescent
the poster remains scattered
throughout this ****** city
a poem about feeling unwanted your whole life

changing myself for you,
telling myself i am someone else,
all for you
would u like the real me? do i like the real me?

yesterday i tried my luck,
i played the lottery,
and it is safe to say it is not like pottery.
1 billion? if u won what would u do?

you are in the deep end,
while i am wishing we were back to being friends.
sometimes we make the wrong decisions

i’ve spent years being mentally malnourished.
chasing sparks in the dark only to be burned.
on the edge of never knowing what i would do.
i asked myself where my mind was.
probably in a sinkhole buried deep in the earth.
i betray myself before i hurt anyone else.
my mind controls my body.
i’m so sorry…
haven’t written in a day, here’s my first thing back lol. another character driven thing

why can't i be happy?
i have everything i could dream of
except i don't have u
so how can i be happy?
seeing the glass as half empty instead of half full

none of my memories are about the happiness love brings,
all of my memories are about the sadness it brings.
why?

i wish if i had a coach to tell me to stay in the game,
i wish i had a propane to keep the flame,
but all i have in my heart is pain and shame.
falling out of love....
