I’m missing how it used to be How you’d seek me out like a little puppy The sparks flying between us like fireworks Anticipation building as we engaged in conversation Then it finally happened on a steamy summer night The curiosity we had about our bedroom manners Discovered in an instant moment of gratification Our bodies tangled as mouths and tongues tasted one another But as expected things fall apart We’ve slowly morphed into distant acquaintances You pay me a visit only when you need to vent As I listen in silence about the woman you love and hate Laying wide awake in my bed Thoughts of you take me over Pleasing myself at the thought of your mouth Gifting wet kisses to that sweet spot You can’t deliver your message to my face That this short lived connection was just that Ceasing your exploration of me and my body Our association has reached its final stop

End Of The Line
I searched for reasons through all these years and now it proves me all so wrong. All of that hurt, so many tears, and what was it for? It's all gone. I thought you better, I thought you changed, I walked the extra mile, all for a lie. Just to be fooled one more time. You use people to get what you need, you use them just as it suits. And then you drop them as if they were used toys To find new objects for your joys. I thought you better, I thought you changed, and if the world would know me story you would look very lame. This is no goodbye This is no farewell This is simply you don't deserve me anymore

No goodbye, no farewell
remember that you were the one that wanted to be friends You asked me, Can we please, Be friends? but then something in you changed, you went back to your old mean ways, And it still hurts you know, seeing you avoid me like I have ******* lepracy, when we dated, Everyone told me to leave you; He’s too short, He’s ugly, He’s a liar. But I didn’t I cared about you, and I stayed because I loved you, but apparently the feelings weren’t mutual, today, someone sent you a picture of me, and you said ew, but once before you used to smile whenever you would see my face.

I'd like to say Our love is like Puzzle pieces. Even if our pieces Are worn And hands don't Fit anymore, The picture we Made together will always Be beautiful In our memories.

Everyone is living their fairytale While I’m living in hell Come back to me already Let's make this right Mend this hole and close it tight No one has to ever know The deep cuts created The harmful words spoke Let’s go back to the way things were Before you shattered my heart Before everything between you and me fell apart

apart
One of these days I will be on deck, put pedals on my boat Low it down the deepest streams And you will watch me as I slowly sail away Towards the ocean, underneath a stormy sky Floating ahead of the hightest tides There I will dive in with everything that I am Wash away your promises and love notes Feed your rebukes and blames to the sharks Then one day I will return, not for you 'Cause I will not know a thing about you but I will notice you if you dare try to take advantage of my Amnesia

Amnesia
Letting go of what you never had Is the hardest task of all I wore that today with my coke cola sweater.... And a coke bottle figure I wore it like i had something to prove Cuz losing you is the worst newz I recieved this year I used to stare from afar and dream Now i just wonder why u ****** up things Or why i even tried Now i try to live a lie And try not to stare and try not to hate Try not to love The very shape of your face And your smile And your hair And im in air Im afloat And today i wore my coke cola sweater And a coke bottle figure With a little missing you And it was the hardest thing to do U used to be a daydream Now youre just misery And u try your best to inflict the most pain Im just insane Youre doing nothing AND im not a thought on your mind I never got an ounce of your time When all you did was occupy mine You were a movement So i wore my heartbreak And a coke cola sweater With a coke bottle figure And it was the hardest thing to feel nothing at all For you.

Coke cola
sometimes i miss our friendship and i miss the summers spent playing volleyball in your backyard with the boy from down the street but then i stop and think of how horrible you were to me you weren't a real friend you used me as a crutch during your suicidal days yet i was alone and weeping over life you hurt me emotionally and to pretend like you cared i'd receive gifts and plastic tears with choreographed paragraphs filled with apologies and i forgave you time and time again it's days when i miss you, the happy you, that i accept that the happy you isn't here anymore and i stop missing you because with you i forgot what friendship was because without you i can sleep again because with you i'm confined to only you because without you i'm happy and surrounded by people willing to teach me what a real and healthy friendship is

sometimes...
Letting go is another thing in life that just doesn't sit well with me. But I get it. And so I must swallow whatever pride I have left. Only because people have been sent after me. I didn't ever think I'd see the day when my once close friends decided to bash my reputation. And to be completely fair, not everybody came after me. But the ones who did, really wanted me to have it. But despite what I've done. I can find some relief in knowing that some of those people still think I'm decent. And thank God I haven't done anything to some people. I try to be kind, and that gets me a decent reputation. But only one mistake can drive it right back into the ground. After all of this. I just want an iced capp to numb the pain and to keep me awake. And sure, this isn't ideal. At all. But it's my life. Or at least... It is now.

So Um..
After 2 weeks of being away from school, here I am again. And if I'm going to live through this week, I should tell you right away, it is going to be hell. It's already eating at me and I am doing my best to pretend I'm okay. Because what's the use of feeling like nobody can fix me? Because nobody can. I'm so broken that it's funny. Yeah, I can laugh about it. I already have. When I poured out my pain to my mom I was laughing and crying. But it quickly turned from funny to just sad. For... a multitude of reasons. I think I'll keep the keys around my neck just to prove a point. That I can showcase my pain without anybody really caring. So... what now? There is nothing I can do, the friendships aren't dependent on my actions. They never have been. I guess one thing worth mentioning is that I redo the sharpie on the key everyday. Just to keep it clear and legible. And because forgetting this doesn't seem to be an option at this point. And my stubbornness in forgetting is... there. But that's always been a part of my life. So I distract myself with my work, however boring it may be. And it's not all boring, but it is more than effective when it comes to my mental state. It's exhausting. But it works. And that is... enough? Probably not. Ugh, nothing is making sense. I'm at a loss for once in my life. A loss of... well... what seems like everything. And for a teenager yeah, my situation does seem very "end of the world" like. But I try desperately not to overreact. But I do. And I will.

Rainclouds form, in a grey skied mind, pouring down, is so unkind, crystal ball tears, & lightning fears, emotionally you're mind reading, indigo ink is quickly bleeding, your touch you know I'm needing, a premonition was imprinted, on your darkened heart, & doomed us right, from the start, I crash to the ground in a deafening sound, thunderstruck, endings **** & so does luck, I'm ripped apart at the seams, shattering my broken dreams, of ever finding the way, to your sea, & ever hoping my heart, will finally be free.

"In Crystal Ball Tears"
The love stretched out to two. The entangled strings between us. I let go of one, not to long ago. The other, My mind was set to follow. I clung, I hurt. The confusion built up of the simple, "He said, she said" The one of whom I let go, gave me valid advice: To let go of the other. I refused, I clung, I hurt. Finally, the message came through. Written in the stars was the message. Rain poured down as I told, "This is the end, forever shes gone" But instead I received nothing but sunshine. I clung? No, I let go. Im free. Im free.

Its Over
I would want nothing more, Than to hear you knocking at my door, You want nothing to do with me I'm sure. I cant get you out of my head, I lie alone, awake in bed, I can don't know what to do instead. There is only one of you, And one of me, I thought we fit together perfectly. My edges were too rough, My heart was too tough, My love wasn't enough. I don't blame you for the pain, I remember that day it rained, When I scooted to my left and you to your right, But now I cry at night.

Heart of Stone
Our love is dead It is gone to the ages I lie alone bed Now my feelings are in cages What we had is lost It lies within the ground Only I know the cost But you I'm glad I found.

I found
Time is running out The clock is ticking fast Tick tick tick A time bomb waiting to implode I’m just buying time Until the hour glass has dropped its last grain of sand No more turning it right side up and starting all over again I don’t know how to fake it anymore Pretend when the seasons change that she’s not on your mind It’s spring again The mania has returned And I won’t stay this time I won’t wait for the fall to come For you to realize once again that you’ve made a mistake Just when I think it’s over, you pull the box out again I’ve tried to bolt it shut I kept the key around my neck You snuck in last night and stole it When I woke up it was all over the floor A picture of her flutters down You pick it up and speak to her You lie and say nothing was said It’s just a secret between you and yourself And you think if you only speak to her in your mind that it will stay that way I’ve tried to Cauterize the wounds but you open them again and again Leaving bigger scars than the time before You look at me and say it’s done Your secrets still on your breath No matter what I do she’ll always be there Right behind me Breathing down my neck — AJ Bell blogbatsinthebelfrylove

Spring Has Sprung
It's been raining all day And how fitting it seems We knew it'd happen eventually So why am I having trouble breathing? I watch you fall through emotions Like the rolling thunder outside You try to understand my mind But oh, I've broken your heart so I'm not sure what delusion I was in That this wouldn't be a messy conclusion Or that I could somehow make you understand That loving someone doesn't mean they're best You're no good and I know it I'm no good though I've tried But your touch is like ****** Toxic as it seems It takes me higher and higher And I've played these games for far too long Running away from a truth I've known So how can I be so surprised That you lash out and scream 'why' I dream about the day years from now When I run into you on the street You'll have her hand in yours And I'll be alone We'll catch eyes, and for a brief moment We'll go back to those times of love and loss But then we'll smile, and casually walk on And that, dear man, is why I can't find the words to speak I know this is really the end

I opened up recently, and it feels amazing. This is the first time I can think of that I've turned to poetry out of happiness rather than anguish. I just went back and read every poem I had ever written. My conclusions were thus: The thing that hurt me and caused me pain was never who I was, but rather the fear that people would see the real me. Now, I have shown myself to all the important people, and life has gotten so much better. I knew I couldn't be closed forever, but I never expected openness to feel this good.

I walk outside, it's forty degrees and the grass is twinkling like your eyes do. I stretch and sigh and feel tears ***** my eyes, the same tears that I had when I put an end to this. So, I ran. I ran and I ran. I ran like I was Jesse Owens and I ran like I was drunk and I ran like I needed to be drunk. I stopped and I cried and I sighed and I loved. I don't love you anymore, Madison, but I did at one point. I stopped like I stopped running and stopped caring and stopped drinking to get rid of your smile burned into my eyes. I met someone new, Madison, I met someone else and I'm happy now. I'm happy without you, Madison. I don't need to get drunk and I don't need to run.
