I'm sorry I wasn't able to hold your heart
the way it should have been held
with all the care I could ever give

I'm sorry your heart was the most precious thing I've ever held onto
that I got so scared I trembled
and dropped it to the ground

I'm even more sorry that I wasn't able to pick it up
I did not even try to hold it ever again
instead I stomped on it until it was a
myriad pieces too late to be restored
Originally ends with: I'm sorry I'm not sorry because you're a *******. You can stick your head up your *** for all I care!!

It was meant to be a ruined poem.
This bottle is to all the
Guards I put around myself
Times I failed to love myself
Nights I always cry to myself

This blade is to all the
Long roads I have walked with you
Coffee afternoons I have shared with you
Beer bottles I have smashed with you

These pills are to all the
Dreaded school Mondays you have lightened up
Down moments from where you have picked me up
Hollow holes in my heart you have almost filled up

This day is to you
Now that everything's over between us
I'm getting over myself, too
Re-reading this today (03/27/15) and to anyone who's gonna read this, I don't have suicidal tendencies. This is plain fiction.
You backed out with a million reasons why
I walked out with my heart broken into all these pieces

You got it right to say goodbye
I got my heart broken into all these pieces

You have the next days to finely pass by
I still have my heart broken into all these pieces
He's been staying in my heart for a long time now
I don't ask him for rent but he pays me cigarettes
And drinks to have during silent long talks
Alone
With each other
Alone in another way
But at least together
She is a flower
Out to glamorize everything she touches
And everything she sets foot on

She is a flower
Admired for her beauty
That casts light on your gloomy day

She is a flower
Your object of adoration
Where your loyalty lies

She is a flower
A cure to the sickness
Unfolding within you

She is the flower
You picked up rashly
And took away from where she’s supposed to be

She is the flower
Caged in the vase locked in your dark room
No one else can see

She is the flower
Stray in your heart
That blocks the daylight she deserves to indulge herself in

She is the flower
You so much care for
That she wilts in your selfish hands
---
I only see you clearly when you’re near

I only know you when you’re here

I forget you when you physically disappear
Tonight,
The stars won’t shine as bright as they are supposed to
The night sky will reflect the darkest possible color

Tonight,
The angry rain will pour but the raindrops won’t touch the ground
The lightning will overcome the stars but the thunder won’t follow

Tonight,
The outcry of the moon will have everyone voiceless
The heavens won’t easily clear all this mess

Tonight, as my grief takes over my body, the sky shall be with me.
