Yes, gladly I would be notified of your departure from my life! Yes, cut me off like loose threads in your tapestry. Yes, dispose of my heart saying it's for the good of both of us and please do ignore me when I crumble in a moment of weakness and ask: Was I ever worth fighting for? I gave everything: I waited. I listened. I kept my distance I stayed close enough and still it ends the same way every . single . time . i smile. i watch you leave and happily, politely, perfectly, with not a bit of anger i cry.

You're all sick of me.
A payphone, Paid for with time and energy All my change I spend on you Released from the caller's heart An already safed contact, Feeling like an anonymous number, Ignored like spammers "Call me back" left on voicemail Hanging loose from the box Still waiting- more days to come

Payphone
Standing at the edge of a cliff with you by my side, We watched the sun as it sets, leaving a wonderful sight of twilight As I turned towards you, my gaze fell upon your meaningful eyes, I fight myself not to tell how much I miss your smile We had so much to say yet neither of us said a word, It's like the voices inside us are desperate to be heard Things aren 't hundred percent right between us, But i will try my best all i want you is to trust I smiled while admiring the radiant sky,     Secretly wishing to have some colors sprinkle in our life          I am optimistic but when i see you all I feel is hopelessness & despond, Should I be worried about the future or is there any future at all? Your eyes are telling me something I don't want to knew, It's not that I don't understand, but I refused to believe you Standing at the edge of a cliff with your hand resting on iny back, All we had faded avwy in a moment as I fell in the arms of death

At the edge of a cliff
May be you know its true Of all the things I do You were the reason And never did I treason As my memoire was filled With nothing less than you And now as I see you Lying down in this forbidden dome With eyes shut close Fragrance everywhere With tears of despair As I no longer perspire The you in me As you have gone far Far away from my reach And girl, you shall remember ‘I’ shall never stand alone As I seek the real me in you Even in life or in death As I shall follow you To your kingdom tenure

The Long Lost And Found
Have you ever gotten to the point where you push the ones you love so far away they don't even bother trying? I have, it feels like everything is dying. I mean it was might fault in the first place, I pushed them hard, But I was just afraid of letting down my guard. This is what I get for being scared of getting hurt, This has all made me so very alert. I'm such a fool, And you were cruel. I let him take advantage of me, Now I'm drowning in a sea. But it's not his fault I was so dumb, It's not his fault I've become so numb. I wonder how the ones I used to love would react, I bet they would look at me and cry since I'm so cracked. I wish I could say goodbye to all, But you would get mad and put up the wall. So instead I'll sit here and smile, Hoping I don't have to stay for much longer.

Ignored
I'm on my way but I don't know I'm slinging sacks over everyone I know I'm on my way but I don't know They all go in different directions I'm left alone I'm on my way but I don't know Why I gave anything to anyone

This Life
I am just a raven I was the one who was sent To see the waters rise and recede But my story forgotten by a dove Now you ignore me But yet you mistake me For a measly crow When I squawk, you tell me to shut up But when I am silent, you mock me So I squawk, and it repeats I pick up your scraps and waste Left on the battlefield With my hard work and precious time Yet you look up to the soaring eagle Forgetting who cleaned your mess I wanted to write this to you To remember me But now I mourn with these phrases Because who would need to listen to me?

why do I feel like I would welcome you back with open arms after being ignored for an entire year if you wanted to be part of my life once again

If You Came Back
If you leave me All the hangers will get tangled in the closet. It won’t matter;  all my clothes will be on the floor. If you leave me The cheese in the refrigerator will turn green. And the milk will soon be far too thick to pour. If you leave me The remote will only tune in somber shows. That will be OK;  I’ll have forgotten how to laugh. If you leave me Dust bunnies will build a hutch beneath the bed Where one forgotten slipper hides that I will never move. If you leave me The sun will shine on everything that’s not within my view. I won’t mind;  my sunglasses will fool everyone but me. If you leave me Hummingbirds won’t visit the back garden any more They’ll be blind to the red juice in the feeder. If you leave me I will build a house of memory and grief And move myself inside and lock the door                     ljm

IF YOU LEAVE ME
I feel empty My emotions were stolen from me By the man who once told me that he love me But suddenly, he just left me How a fool I was when I told him I would give him anything So a gave my all, I gave my everything But Without a warning he was gone Took everything now I am left with none

Remains
Don’t you dare try to betray A woman that chose to stay To love you till the end To your wounds she promised to mend Don’t you dare try to leave A woman who live Lives just for you For you, anything she can do Don’t you dare try to hide From a woman that lied And said she will be okay As long as beside her you’ll stay But you did Betrayed her and left You even hid Yourself now Don’t you dare try to find A woman you’ve left behind To find her, you cannot ‘Coz here in this world, she is not Don’t you dare regret The things you have let Let unfold because of your choices 'Coz you gave in to your vices Don’t you dare forget The sufferings she had met The burden she carried alone Your sins to her that you can never atone

Don’t you dare!
Time have stopped for her Until he came It was then when her time ticked again Then little by little she started moving and with those movements little by little she started growing the time spent with him made it possible for her to again little by little started living Every moment with him made her little by little started enjoying It made her realize, that for him little by little she started caring More time passed, then she knew little by little,.. no.. more and more she started loving More and more she started knowing about the person that made her life worth living More and more of him she wanted having So more and more of him she kept asking She loved him and He loves her So more and more of him he kept giving But the cycle of asking and giving did not cease So the more and more she kept having, The more and more of him he kept losing It was late when they realized, little by little his time was ending Little by little he lost his sight More and more she saw his plight Little by little he couldn't feel More and more she prayed for him to heal Little by little that he couldn't hear More and more she whispered in his ear, "I love you with everything I have, everything I am, and everything I'll ever be my dear" Little by little he was suffering More and more she kept hurting Little by little that the time kept moving More and more his end is nearing And Little by little he stopped breathing More and more she knew it was coming More and more his life was leaving little by little he stopped moving And when he met with his ending His clock also stopped working. Time had stopped for her, but he made it move. Now time had stopped for him, and there is nothing she can do...

It’s started when the first time you came You let me fall into your game Oh, fool that i am, for falling too deep, and that is my shame I keep calling out your name, hoping that you’ll turn around and wipe my tear But instead, you’re just standing there, drinking a can of beer, pretending not to hear And watch me drown in my own tears, choking in fear Alone, with nobody near And that, is how I disappear Are you happy now, my dear?

This Is How I Disappear
There was once 'attraction' in between my heart ; Not-a-day-goes-by phrase is overused in our fashion, yes?
