After  years  of  you  giving me the silent treatment                                                                                                  if  no  one  calls  I  think  it's because  of a disagreement                                                                                  Because  of  your consistent  lack  of communication                                                                      sometimes  when  I talk, I forget people are listening                                                                 Convinced I am never enough or  I'm too  much                                                                                                        I overdo for others in hopes of earning their love                                                                                                                  Under your  sense of grandiose entitlement                                                                                                            I've  put myself last and under your judgement                                                                                                            With persistent efforts to  disrespect me                                                                                                                          I  over explain and apologize habitually                                          I've  accepted bread crumbs of your affection                                                                                                     a love  concocted of toxin and poisonous venom

Each time I think of you It is as if                I call down the moon                To frame your silhouette                Embraced by another It is as if                The four winds                Shall burn us both                With the jealously                Born from my nature It is as if                Each composition of                Scented dialogue                Withheld from my eyes                Became a letter                Of indiscretion                               Unleashed upon the world

Jealousy
this watch strap was meant to be made of genuine leather the highest quality chocolate brown with a steel pin buckle alligator patterned finished in matte though whether cut from that soft yet durable popular reptilian hide as was "guaranteed" questions will remain it was not after all purchased from one of the authentic branded sellers so would appear that i may have been caught out by one of those virally pervasive regrettably persuasive and ever-prevailing peddlers of **** once again instead of the promised "many years of enjoyment" that were blindly expected i am left resenting those moments between glances at that glassy face futilely aware of the seconds minutes and hours that each split and crack grows wider and deepens beyond repair

on constant watch
Love is a boulevard, Sometimes we're in different lanes. If all's going well, then I guess it's the same. But what of the self-imposed roadblocks, Or closures for repairs? Things never gotten round to, and now Some roads lead nowhere

I Die Every Night
Maybe it's all the avarice The commonplace detachment, Of trodden-life, taken as a game. It is what it is, The way things go, A billion different ways To say the same thing.

she knows he hates her she can feel the resentment from a mile away non-stop thinking about him turns into nightmares waking her up everyday at 3am she can't go back to sleep her mistakes haunt her every night and she hates herself for it, and can't seem to forgive herself

how can i forgive me
I waited in vain for your validation In hopes that maybe you’d see me The way I saw you, beloved Sadly, you viewed me like thin air While I was mesmerized by your cappuccino skin And the way your hair danced in the wind You couldn’t give a **** about me I was just one of many who looked your way Even as I would ignore you in plain sight I would beg for your attention in my head But you only threw crumbs at me Like I was some lost street pigeon Keep your linty crumbs for someone else The hell you think you are? I am deserving of so much riches Yet I feel like some vagabond

Crumbs
The two ol' pals are facing each other. He passes a glass of poison to his dear guest, leaning near the front door, slightly opened; and he's learning the reason— why he's standing there, about to storm out of the stone-cold apartment— 'bout to burst in tears shedding the vivid droplets that shouldn't be belonging to a mere ghost. Yet he's fleeting, escaping the scene still, while the owner of the kitchenette is putting back the bottle     to where it belonged;     and he's gone, present no longer. The drink on the rock—left on the shelf— is evaporating, following the vaporized guest, leaving the scent of faint alcohol that lulls the other friend to regretful sleep.

A Drink
You're just another ******* hidden under the name of God. You're soon to be 40 I'm nowhere near 30 I hate you so much now, I only wish you bad I hope you'll die soon, wasn't your plan to be closer to God? All your ******* stupid beliefs broke us apart. And I feel a LOSER falling in your trap of love. I hope you'll read this and understand that you shouldn't exist A mistake you were always, an angry ******* beast.

BEAST
You think I really hate you Know I ******* should But I do not think I ever will Any girl in my place would In head screams echo off the walls My soul rotting, begging to heal Organs a meager cushion for substances Heart beats but doesn't want to feel Raindrops pound, I miss your kiss And I swear painful truth is all I  see Used to write my adoration for you It is clear you are unworthy Picking at emotional scabs Left by resentful carving knives I wonder between snaps of anger If this is how you wanted us to live our lives

I Really Should Hate You
*This shore is where we walked between the whistling sands of the dunes The cry of seabirds and the thunder of the sea as it broke its waves upon our feet. I thought of you as I walked the spray filling my eyes like salty tears. and I know my days will turn past deaths shadows and time will freeze the mountains before you hear these sounds again with me.*

Sea Walk Vows
Resenting the light, from the Olympian, that warms my wool. It cowards behind holly, that grows in the pine grove. Retreats to shaded cold, below timber arms. It is disgusted to the sight, of white, yellow and orange. Prefers the blue of night. As it fades, flows and steeps. It becomes clear, pillaged of its white veneer. Though, it carries forward, like a grudge that won’t melt away. Or is it more like love, ever changing. Or even as stubborn, as a cold bedded love. That brings life to you, at least once a year. But, in the end it recedes. Into the wood, from under the holly. Then waits, until you’ve almost forgotten.

Resentful as the snow
Don't you dare try to convince me that You taught me how to fly when You were the one who pushed me Over the edge. Before you, I was afraid of heights and Even then I didn't stop falling after I realized you would never be there to catch me.

That wasn't flying, anyway.
Horror binds my body in place I'm struck by the height of your ignorance Facing the hateful comments from a race That uses religion as it's weapon. Help me cleanse myself of this Of evil thoughts of destroying them too For I will not take their place. I wont become you. I wont spend sleepless nights venting my frustrations on the innocent Poisoning my ideals and my future With fools who have no aspiration i wont bow down to your demands And i wont speak to you either For your brain doesn't have the capacity to understand this: society is evil. Keep my body as an example Of a girl who dared to try, Who stood up for true morals, And fought for what was right.

Taken away.
If a world is known by its ideals Let mine be known as sanity Let all men be infertile And all women, stale Let streets be known for sanitation And all babies dipped in chlorine All talk, sterile and sufficient All excrement concealed Let the youth of my predecessors And their mocking vulgarity Drown in a town of minimal design And shocking similarity.

Suburban Blues
Her speech patterns are like coffee. Black, harsh, and bitter. Empty of cream or sugar. Her thoughts are caffeine. Wired, over loaded, full throttle. Piercing shards from smashed bottles.
