So bitter-sweet is solitude
'Cause why on earth would I need you?
I'm perfectly happy here by myself.

Except when it gets it dark and it gets cold
When I'm alone, sitting on my bed
and I miss the way my hands fit perfectly in yours

So bitter-sweet is solitude
Because I'm better now I'm without you
But it is still solitude, and I am still alone.

I miss you, I love you, no I don't, I hate you
I miss the memories, not the person
but the happiness, the company.
Not about me in anyway, just written for a collection I was recently added to.
What a difference a week can make
You go from happiness to heartbreak.
The single best day of your life
To wanting to go and grab the knife.
From the happiest person you could be
When everything's perfect and you're filled with glee
To hating everything and wishing you'd die
Because life is now terrible, so why even try?
A lot can change in one week
Life goes from perfect, to ever so bleak.
Oh how would love to sit beneath this ever quiet moon
My arms around you my dear, I hope this happens soon.
Oh how I wish to just lie there and be with only you my dear
But that won't happen not any time soon, at least that's what I fear
Those perfect days, our fingers knit, where it is just us two
The difference between now them, is that today is missing you.
"No, Cassius, for the eye sees not itself
But by reflection, by some other things."

Maybe that is why she won't believe the things I say
Doesn't agree she's perfect in every way.
She say's she not perfect, beautiful or amazing
But she doesn't know it's her I'm craving.
She only see's a pale reflection of her true self
in the imperfection of those like myself
But she is more perfect than anyone
If beauty were stars she'd be the sun.
If only she knew, just how I see her
So perfect she makes everything else a blur.
Because when I look at her she's all I can see
And I know she's as beautiful, as beauty can be.
Maybe this is why you don't believe me. Because you see all the imperfect people around you, and don't believe you could be so much better than them, so much more beautiful, and wonderful, and amazing, and perfect. But you are, more so than anyone else.
"No, Cassius, for the eye sees not itself
But by reflection, by some other things."
-Brutus, act 1, scene 2,
Just a quote that I remembered while talking to someone who can't see how beautiful she is.
With that first chance that you gave me
I messed up and now I see
I didn't deserve you at the time
But I still got to call you mine.

I didn't deserve that second chance
Try as I might with that romance
So I'm not surprised when pressure got high
You walked and left my heart to die

It seems you've come back yet again
Though the last two times I was to blame
I didn't deserve chances one and two
What makes you think I'll ever deserve you?

But you still think I'm worth a shot
And I still tell you that I'm not
But I'm in love and you are too
and all I want is to be with you.

So thank you for, chance number three
Perfect is all I'll let it be.
Because being with you, is the best thing ever
And all I want, is to love you forever
You love me more? Well I love you most
I'm writing you poems, not trying to boast
But I love you and it makes my heart soar
It makes me write, and I make you go 'aww'

You miss me most? Well I miss you more
Because you're the one thing, I truly adore
I love you each and every single day
I'll love you forever, in every single way
