when a door closes, another reveals itself

doors close when you fail to satisfy the requirements to help it stay open

you did not study hard enough

you did not try hard enough

you did not work hard enough

but what happens when a door closes itself when you did

you chose him again

of course you would

you told me i was the better choice

but you didn't pick me did you

you picked him

him

who has had everything given to him on a silver platter

with as many companians as the blades of grass on a hill

instead of me

the person who supported you with everything that you have went through

i don't have much money

i don't have many friends

but i thought im wealthy enough

if i had you holding my hand
this is the first time i'm writing something with non gender neutral pronouns and it's because this is raw and it is happening. and i do not have the capacity to make this as beautiful as my other pieces.

always said to be an option

always said he would be chosen

always working to be the best

but always ending up in second
back to my normal stuff

blood - flesh - tears - pus

beg for my mercy

beg for forgiveness

i will slowly run my blade across your skin

slowly peel the nails off your fingertips

bleed - cry - scream

beg for for me to end it

beg for me to stop

as i rip the hair off your scalp

as i gut you inside out

i want to **** you

but slowly

make you feel every little bit of pain as you scream

scream my name

as i **** you

in this dark room

filled with pieces of you

rap tap tap

you hear the trees rustling against the window

rap tap tap

you hear the water dripping in your sink

rap tap tap

you hear the ticking of the clock

rap tap tap

footsteps on the floor

rap tap tap

hes standing by your door
a different pace and genre compared to my usual writing but i wanted to see what i'm capable of producing

i'm not what you want

i'm not what you need

but i've always been here for you

so why did you not choose me

this always happens

the same vicious cycle

over and over

im stuck at work; working to be better

i always think everything would be alright

since, i thought, we always talked every night

then it happens, they ask you out

they ask you if you're free to be up and about

you tell them yes, lets meet

word for word

without missing a beat

as i sit here at work waiting for your text to bring me peace

i see them with you on social media

a fire raises

my blood boils

my tongue to be a knife

sharp, deadly, lethal, unforgiving

i get ready to burn everything to the ground

to cut everything into pieces

i hate them with the very same passion as i love you

and i love you with every cell in my being

"you should have picked me," i thought

i would have been there soon

then suddenly i realize

that i didn't want to hurt you

you are my love, my heart

i could not bear to see you hurt

so i take it all back

the flames, doused

the knife, put away

i want you to be happy

if i behave then you could be

then maybe, in the end

once you have seen what i have done

my effort would be recognized

then maybe you would choose for me to be with you

just me

not them
