don't push me.

i can't do it
for a reason.

im terrified.

i hate confrontation!

can't i just.. deal with it?
silently,
quietly,
as my heart
twists in pain,
my lungs
slowing down
every breath i take.

i can deal with that.

to keep us friends.

i don't want to lose you..

yes you may have
talked about me behind my back,
made fun of me to my face,
pointed out insecurities,
embarrassed to be infront of people i love,
hurt me physically --
not just emotionally.

but i can't lose you.

you're one of my closest friends.

even though
i know
it's all a fake.

you hate me.

i still can't
lose you.

my body won't let me.

Who do you trust?
Just so you know —
yesterday was ******* all of us,
so don’t play hard to reach.

People come and go,
stepping into our lives
and then leaving
as if they’d never been there at all.

Are you real,
or did you wander in from Neverland?
Because I know there’s no one left to trust,
so don’t act like this life is a rehearsal —
this isn’t a fairy tale.

So where do we go now?
I don’t know.
But you go first,
and I’ll follow —
or maybe I won’t.

I am so patient and funny and kind
And that's what you like,
A pretty girl with silly rhymes.
I can be funny and laid-back and free-
You love it so much,
Because that's all you can see.

The moment I know your feelings are more,
I start closing up, exposed on the floor.
Really it's backwards, the way my mind acts-
The less that you know, the more we interact.

When you learn secrets and more of my lore,
I start getting nervous, I start locking doors.
What if you find something you’ll never like?
My heart starts racing, I’m braced for a fight.

I almost can't breathe at the thought of you leaving,
I did it again- and now I’m pre-grieving.
It seems fun to fall when I'm up at the peak,
But I’m close to the ground now,
With a crash on repeat.

I pull back the moment it starts feeling good,
Sabotage sweetness- now misunderstood.
I look for red flags in a forest with no debris,
Inventing ghosts no one’s ever even seen.

I scan for signs you’re starting to sway,
Even when your actions beg me to stay.
Afraid of love that might go right,
So I dim all sparks before they light.

But it's all my mind-
It's not even real.
I have to leave the thoughts behind,
Break the hypnotic seal.

You aren't my past-
We haven't even yet said hello.
You look at me with interest,
But you remind me of letting go.
Realizing it's silly to mourn a love not yet savored, I'll step out of my head a bit and do us both a favor.

I gave you all, my steady hands,

to build your dreams, to meet demands

but when I fell, when I was weak?
you turned away refused to speak.
don't trust anyone again.
Beneath cold bricks and cement lies my heart
Not easily chiseled away
I spent long hiding and raising my guard
Often times it’s newly paved

If I count on my hand each one in my heart
Few fingers would be lifted
Gaining my trust is a task that’s quite hard  
I’m too scarred to show and gift it

The sadness falls in sheets of rain—
I long for an umbrella of love.
You are the Atlantic, lost in tides,
I am the Pacific, distant above.

Two waters that will never meet,
divided by fate, by silent war.
Loneliness hums in flickering streetlights,
shadows stretch, but mine is no more.

The mirror mocks with a cruel smile,
a stranger wears my skin and eyes.
If self-love is an illusion,
why can’t I stop despising mine?

My world, once golden, now Atlantis,
drowning beneath a memory.
The pillars that held my past and pain,
once strong with love, now start to break.

And as the cracks run deep and wide,
they show the truth I failed to see—
the ones I cherished, swore were mine,
were only ghosts disguised as peace.

El Dorado gleamed on the horizon,
but it’s farther than the stars abide.
Betrayal shattered like porcelain glass,
a wound too deep for love to hide.

Yet even ruin learns to harden—
one day, I will return the favor in steel.
Why did you ignore

My please to cease

I had no desire

To believe your fairytale



You always lead me back here

I’m so tired of your ****

So stay the hell away from me

I’m done playing your games




——————————————————




You gave me

-Trust Issues-

Why you lying all the time




You said I’d

-Burn In Hell-

So I guess I’ll see you there


We were walking

-Hand In Hand-

But Then You Left Me There To Die



——————————————————




I’m not sorry

For the things I said

You can tell me what you want

But you know your own fault




Don’t ask me to apologize

For your mistakes

Never expect me to take your blame

Because I'll never feel your shame


___________

You gave me

-Trust Issues-

Why you lying all the time

-Burn In Hell-

____________


Will you just shut the **** up

And get the hell out of my head

Not everything is about you

So get out of my life

I shouldn't have met you

And trusted that smiling face


——————————————————

You gave me

you make me sick
Wow i got a bit mad after i got rid of a toxic friend. Written as a song, kinda old BoyWithUke style. Somehow actually got a rhythm in my head.
Jesus christ she started doing it again, but to someone else this time.

Covered in lies.
People, covered in lies, lies.
In this generation-
does anybody ever tell the truth?

“To thine own self be true, and it must follow, as the night the day, thou canst not then be false to any man.”
But what if thine own self shallnt be true?
To own man, or any man, do we tell ourselves
the things we are to be
and plans play out?

No man is perfect
Therefore, every man lies
about something
there is not a full decade
or a full lifetime
that a man is honest throughout.

Nobody is truly honest.
So, is any man really to trust?
I wrote this on a whim after literally 5-7 minutes. I don't think it's really that good, but I just wanted to post something.

I don't know if I should trust you
It's true
You give me deja vu
You made me second guess myself
You made me question if I should tell you the truth about myself

You make me cautious about my words
Scared that I'll slip up my words
You make me think that life is a chess game
One wrong move and I lose the game
I got to move my pieces wisely
To not move my pieces truthfully
I am tangled to you with the fragile strings of trust that have been ripped too many times,
and still,
you are slowly tearing them appart without knowing it.
