when you lose someone
it stays with you,
leaving a hole in your heart
where that person used to be

there's no getting away from
that aching feeling of loss
it haunts you no matter
where you decide to hide

when you lose someone,
no words can describe
how it truly makes you feel
in the darkest of the night

how is is possible to talk
about a feeling deep within
a feeling that can only
be described as unspeakable

when you lose someone,
time doesn't heal all the wounds
it simply hides them
but the wounds always remain

but somehow it all changes
you don't just lose someone
because in the end
you lose yourself too
every sad teen
with dead eyes
who hates their parents
and thinks the world is ****

was once a happy kid
with bright eyes
who believed their parents were heroes
and that anything was possible
ugh life is just.....
I was in love with you
with the silly things you did
and obnoxious words you said
but over night
you changed
there's now nothing
for you to do
or say
that'll bring back
who I fell for
high school changes people
Sometimes I get so empty
I think I'm floating
I'm so light,
I think, perhaps,
the feathers will love me.

I am not okay
but I will be okay.
I'll try not to stick my head in the oven
and close the door.
I will be okay,
without you.

Just wait a little, would you,
darling?

You cannot fix me.
You cannot fix me.
The real question is: when do I ever write poems that aren't about falling?
