#betteroff
It’s been two days now, And I’ve been dying. I’m drowning in my thoughts Those thoughts about her. I wake up, waiting for her call, Then night arrives Without hearing her echoes. Yet I wonder Do you miss me too? Are you still thinking about me?

Love Suicide
haunted by your presence your imprint in my powder stamped on my heart forever everything reminds me of you I wish you didn’t matter can’t even see pictures of me without relating them to how you used to be changed the way i see pivotal in my evolution, delusional since rejection been off the market, been on the grind been second guessing my part in the tragic fall, maybe i am not such a victim after all maybe i am not so young and dumb after all maybe i am better off

It's almost been one year since we began talking, Since we said, "Hello" for the very first time; And that is okay because we went out and we had a good thing going, But on December 6th, we were split up; We didn't talk for months on end, No, not until April 20th; When you finally realized that I was not going anywhere, And we both realized that we could no longer go on fighting; Even after we started talking, I disappeared for a week, scaring everyone; When I got back, the first thing I did was come looking for you to apologize for everything that happened; I put the blame on you, and we didn't really talk again until July 28th; When I put something about abortion on my Instagram story, and I tagged you in it; You were confused on why I did that, I was freaking out about your reaction; Once I explained what it was about, We then had a four-hour conversation; It started at 10 pm and ended at 2 am, The longest we ever talked since December 6th; And from that moment on, We became better friends; A friendship that once was something more, Something that turned out not to be quite right; Something that turned out not to work out, Turned out that we just needed to work things out; Two people who tried to be something great, Wanted something different; Would finally realize later on, That it would be better if they were new and improved;

shoelaces My shoelaces need to be tied But I’m stuck still in love I’m trying to kiss my goodbyes But darling it’s tough My eyes don’t really see anymore his eyes are stuck in my sight No... I know I need to shut that door For it keeps me awake at night My shoelaces need to be tied Maybe then I can move on Maybe then I can move to a new sky Instead of repeating the same god **** song Falling out of love is a hard thing to do So give me some clues Now you know why I can’t tie my shoes

shoelaces
For the first time in my adult life I am free from you. But what is freedom really? I've come to find out it's something that's subjective, arbitrary. I am physically free from you but still chained to something, and I don't know what that something is. I'm free to be the person I knew I always could be without you. But why are you still chained to my thoughts? Why am I still chained to this toxic lifestyle? Maybe it's this City. Maybe it's the way you used to hold me at night. Maybe it's the way He looks at me now (He looks at others the same too). Or maybe it's just me and I still miss you. And I still sleep alone while you sleep with Her. So then, is freedom really free?

I'm better off without you I'm really starting to see Now that time has past I've dried my tear soaked sleeves I thought you were my angel What a cunning disguise Turns out you were my demon Crippling my mind So thanks for the memories But I'm finally moving on It seems that to catch my breath I needed you gone

Better Off
Have you seen me? They took my face Off the the missing posters, Because no one Would want the reward, If they saw my face. The description They removed too, Because how can you Define a girl Who's nothing but bruised? I have been missing -- gone, For far, far too long.

Missing, Have You Seen This Girl? (would you even want to?)
I am given to an unfamiliar direction, disturbed into one in need, by confession, of sympathetic sorrow, and her fond affection. Yet I was left to fall to ruin in a mode, a condition of the great and hapless misery of this wan dejection, by the one whose sweet tenderness once was unquestioned. Her lovingness by no thoughts is considered to be any more. She became a shadowy wretch that was long ago and once before a primary source to my poor crying heart's deep and ever endless store. To my heart's succor she could not allot a smidgen more, because I lost my way by way of a muse whose virtue was pure, and I was lying within my secret hideaway far from me, far from her.
