Always the lover
Never the loved

Always the listener
Never the heard

Always the giver
Never the receiver

Always the healer
Never the healed

Always the helper
Never the helped

Always the hugger
Never the hugged

Never forgetting
Always forgotten

He was smooth but not understanding
He was charming but not loyal
He was beautiful but a manipulator    
I knew this would come to and end
I knew I was a fool
He was secure but brought my insecurity
He was strong inside but not loving
He was my first but never mine

Thinking about the future
makes me anxious.
Not thinking about the future
makes me anxious.
There is no middle-ground and
we are all anxious.

it wasn't until the sun rose
that I realized
just how much
I was in love with the moon

Looking up
staring down
Heavy hearts only weigh what you feel like
The glass is only half-empty if it was full before
Loss is only a loss if you feel worse
The best thing to say is “at least”
“Well now I get to”
“It’s fine because”
Don’t worry about it
Unnecessary sadness
Think up
Not down
