I always forget that grief
isn't just an emotional reaction.
Something constricted in my chest
Nobody ever talks about the grief tightening.

Every girl, every flirtation, every **** since that summer
(four years?)
was meant to destroy
the idea of you,
of us,
but instead none of them could
compare to that dream.
A vision.
I thought it was finally
real.

I hope that
all is not lost.
Hydrogen was in the air,
but I didn't have the courage
to set the air on fire. There is
still time.

I play his goodbyes
like a classic
broken vinyl,
too many spoken
farewell's
to even fix;
the endmost
pain
i'll ever need,
his
last word
i'll ever hear.
Pity and sadness
Lust causes me madness
Roses and chocolate are needles in my eye sockets.
And moonlit nights they
Fog my eyes cause
All my life's been
One bad ride
I wish for death
Any
Blissful end
But it won't come
Life won't end
So
My eyes will weep
And all will see
A creeps eyes bread nought.
Save tainted seas.
It a poem about the mixture of hormones and rejection all thrown in together. This is my greatest challenge constantly trying to find someone that loves me,cares about me and understands me. But it's hard when you aren't pretty,funny,smart,or relatable it kind of repels every all human beings from you but I try anyway and fail then I'm back to pen and paper cause theynever leave me why is life and love so hard

Every time I see you, I smile a little bit.
We could've looked good together, you have to admit.
Your love was a cold wasteland, and I was clearly frostbitten.
They warned me about drugs but why never about love's addiction?
I was so confident that I couldn't accept rejection,
but I accepted and it was because of my own condition.
Everyone knew that I liked you except you, it was emblazoned.
In the flower village, where my love had blossomed,
You became the uninvited guest that my heart had welcomed.
I would describe your body, your perfectly slim figure
igniting my passion for you, almost like a trigger.
The first time I saw you, I laughed and thought you were a low peasant.
Oh how the tables have turned, now look who falls in your presence.
Just having you in my life is a ******* blessing.
Understand that girl, you were so perfect
yet you left me with almost no self-respect.
Rashed cried, knowing she will never come back no matter how hard he corrected.
She was his undying flame that he failed to extinguish.
She was the canvas that he couldn't finish.
She was the criminal his heart let go of unpunished...
So many girls who wanted him, yet he had so little interest,
She wasn't just an entertainment, but a commitment.
What a joke, she gave me the silent treatment,
why? Because my love for her was so persistent.
It was annoying...but for the price of a relationship that might've been resilient...
This is dedicated to the one that got away.

I smiled and waved
I thought you wanted to say hello
But you put a space between the l-o
To make some room for an N

I've made a fool of myself again

He was my peach
My plum
My one true love
He jerks away his shoulder from my resting head
He's cold
Like his open window in November
The wind blows through me
He indulges my cherry heart
With sweet nothings tainted
And turns around to slap my hand
Remind me
How ugly I truly am
My peach
My plum
My one true love
The smell of mandarin lingers in the hallway
His smile comes to caress my cheek
It hurts my head
His Gemini spirit
Taunts me
This unavailable heart of mine
That's his

knowing that you’re gone isn’t as painful
as wondering if you’ll ever come back

did i really mean that little to you?
cause you left me easily...
almost like I was nothing...

sometimes love is not enough
and some things were never ever
meant to be. you just have to
accept it and learn to let go

someone asked me,
“ what kind of person do you want to love? “
i replied,
“ someone who is not strong...”
i added
“ not strong enough to let me go “

my mind understands that you’re gone
but my heart refuses to accept it.

you took a piece of my part with you
when you left and knew that,
i must keep forward
even though it’s hard,
even when you left my heart empty.

if you’ll ever love me please let me know,
if not, please gently let me go
