#pleasecomeback - Hello Poetry

It's hard to breathe And weird to touch I was acting so normal And I was thinking too much Trying hard To figure out Moving onward Engulfed in doubt Don't look back Too much pain And in fact Nothing to gain Filled with knots Wasted time I got a penny for my thoughts When I deserved a dime Who's to say what's true I never said I was right Guess I never knew It's not worth the fight Thinking about before Don't know who I was Could have closed the door And never been an "us" Said you would stay Promised you could Chose to walk away I knew you would Everything was fine Said we'd never part Knew it was a line But gave you my heart I'll take the blame I've always known I played your game You lost alone I know you know There's more to give You were a stepping stone I have a life to live Hard to love Weird to trust Acting typical Think it was lust You told me to be strong, Then you left

Maybe I Feel Too Much

It's hard to breathe And weird to touch I was acting so normal And I was thinking too much Trying hard To figure out Moving onward Engulfed in doubt Don't look back Too much pain And in fact Nothing to gain Filled with knots Wasted time I got a penny for my thoughts When I deserved a dime Who's to say what's true I never said I was right Guess I never knew It's not worth the fight Thinking about before Don't know who I was Could have closed the door And never been an "us" Said you would stay Promised you could Chose to walk away I knew you would Everything was fine Said we'd never part Knew it was a line But gave you my heart I'll take the blame I've always known I played your game You lost alone I know you know There's more to give You were a stepping stone I have a life to live Hard to love Weird to trust Acting typical Think it was lust You told me to be strong, Then you left

sometimes when people hold me i don't think they realize how many broken pieces they're holding together even just for a moment before they let go and i fall apart all over again

hold me just a little tighter, just a little longer

You were the type of person who loved dancing in the rain. Laughter and the smell of daisies followed you everywhere I don't think you owned a sweater that wasn't oversized You would leave pressed flowers in all of my books, and I still find them today I never would have imagined how terrible life without you is If only life came back to people who deserved it, people like you. No one except for me knew that behind the daisies and the oversized sweaters, you were hurting You wore the sweaters to hide yourself You were ashamed You never wanted anyone else to hurt, so you spent your time fixing others instead of yourself I tried to help you but I failed And I hate myself for letting you hurt I know I musn't dwell on the past, but it's hard when that's the only thing keeping you alive is my mind

Behind the Daisies

Laughter and the smell of daisies followed you everywhere I don't think you owned a sweater that wasn't oversized You would leave pressed flowers in all of my books, and I still find them today I never would have imagined how terrible life without you is If only life came back to people who deserved it, people like you.

It's been a week when he decided to surprise me with his goodbye... It was 7 in the morning.. I didn't expect to wake up feeling lost.. not able to utter a word. He asked me to just find someone else like I'm someone who he can just give to anyone.. The reason for ending the relationship was because he will be moving far... and he said that is the only way he sees to save us both from the hurt that the distance would cause.. he said if he happens to cameback next year and we're still both single we might get back together.. He doesn't want me to wait.. but I'm more than willing to wait for him... idk until how long I can wait, but I'm more than willing.. GOD I WANT HIM BACK.. I MISS HIS TOUCH, HIS KISSES, THE WAY HE MADE ME FEEL.. I MISS THE PERSON I AM WHEN I'M WITH HIM... I MISS US.. I MISS HIM!!!

I swam to the bottom, hoping to find something new— I realized there was a whole new world to discover... Through silent currents and an endless blue— How surreal; how tranquil; how serene. The darkness and the cold don't mean anything to me— its quiet brings a peace that I could never compare. The sight of a sunken ship— so wondrous in its beauty. How euphoric... the gentle touch of the sea sends a shiver up my spine— no, through my mind. One sudden undercurrent— that's all it took to pull me away. It was only a mere moment... How sudden; how cruel; how cold. I guess that's just the way of the earth.

I once discovered the sea

I swam to the bottom, hoping to find something new— I realized there was a whole new world to discover... Through silent currents and an endless blue— How surreal; how tranquil; how serene. The darkness and the cold don't mean anything to me— its quiet brings a peace that I could never compare. The sight of a sunken ship— so wondrous in its beauty. How euphoric... the gentle touch of the sea sends a shiver up my spine— no, through my mind. One sudden undercurrent— that's all it took to pull me away. It was only a mere moment... How sudden; how cruel; how cold. I guess that's just the way of the earth.

The space between us used to hum, A symphony of whispered fun, Now silence sits, a heavy guest, Where laughter flowed, and joy was blessed. We built a world, a vibrant hue, Shared dreams that felt forever true, Now tinted gray, the colors fade, A memory of promises made. Remember nights beneath the stars, Secrets shared, behind life's bars, Each other's anchor, strong and deep, Secrets that now we softly keep. A simple glance could say it all, Before the rise, before the fall, Now eyes avoid, a painful game, Where neither whispers out the name, Of what we lost, or let erode, A bond we carried on the road, The road of life, with twists and turns, Where fire flickered, slowly burns. No angry words, no shouting cries, Just quiet tears behind our eyes, A gentle drift, a silent pull, Leaving hearts heavy, spirits dull. We walk on eggshells, light and slow, Afraid to ask, afraid to know, The reason why, the where and when, Our story fractured, not again. But here we stand, on opposite sides, Where comfort once securely hides, A hollow echo, faint and weak, Words left unspoken, we can't speak. The distance grows with every day, As feelings silently decay, A chasm forms, a widening tear, Leaving only emptiness to fear. Perhaps someday, the ice will thaw, And understanding we will draw, But until then, we both must bear, This weight of silence, in the air. Two souls adrift, no longer near, Haunted by what once was clear, The unspoken truth, a constant sting, The end of everything.

The End of Everything

The space between us used to hum, A symphony of whispered fun, Now silence sits, a heavy guest, Where laughter flowed, and joy was blessed. We built a world, a vibrant hue, Shared dreams that felt forever true, Now tinted gray, the colors fade, A memory of promises made. Remember nights beneath the stars, Secrets shared, behind life's bars, Each other's anchor, strong and deep, Secrets that now we softly keep. A simple glance could say it all, Before the rise, before the fall, Now eyes avoid, a painful game, Where neither whispers out the name, Of what we lost, or let erode, A bond we carried on the road, The road of life, with twists and turns, Where fire flickered, slowly burns. No angry words, no shouting cries, Just quiet tears behind our eyes, A gentle drift, a silent pull, Leaving hearts heavy, spirits dull. We walk on eggshells, light and slow, Afraid to ask, afraid to know, The reason why, the where and when, Our story fractured, not again. But here we stand, on opposite sides, Where comfort once securely hides, A hollow echo, faint and weak, Words left unspoken, we can't speak. The distance grows with every day, As feelings silently decay, A chasm forms, a widening tear, Leaving only emptiness to fear. Perhaps someday, the ice will thaw, And understanding we will draw, But until then, we both must bear, This weight of silence, in the air. Two souls adrift, no longer near, Haunted by what once was clear, The unspoken truth, a constant sting, The end of everything.
