poetry

don’t think too hard

please don’t think too hard darling you’ll hurt yourself

I always thought when you fall in love with someone its magical  

Why do you push me away? 

Does my kiss not fix your bad day? 

I feel alone when I lay next to you 

This feeling isn’t anything new 

I have only ever trusted me 

I wish you could help me breathe 

what is this to you

what is this to you?

I touch you I feel sparks  

I wish you felt what I felt  

Am I full of lumps  

Do I disgust you?  

I just wish you’d touch me 

Like magnets colliding  

A need that can’t go unheard  

Stick with me 

Like I’m all you’re need  

you returned once and I’ll see you later

you returned once and I’ll probably see you later

I broke your heart last week  

I imagine you’re still hurting from it 

Strange how I feel no sympathy  

For causing pain to someone who used to be my everything  

But like they say everything comes back around 

You returned once and I’ll see you later  

You’ll never be ‘you’ without me  

Don’t you see?  

You were the best ‘you’ when you were with me 

breezy; a note

I don’t want to keep going. I’ve been low before but I’ve never felt so hollow and empty; worthless. My body follows my mind and shuts down with it. I know I am capable of loving who I am but I feel, right now, like I am no one, like I am nameless. Searching my mind for reasons to stay every day and the list continues to grow shorter and shorter. And I remember losing you and I remember how it felt to me; I don’t wish that on anyone I love. But I also remember how easy it seemed. One day you were here and the next day you just weren’t. Like a breeze.

Some days I want to join the wind with you.

i guess i’ll die wondering

i guess i’ll die wondering and you’ll die asking

How can I be honest with you  

When I can’t even be honest with myself 

22 years spent in this skin  

Because I guess that’s what we do  

I’ll keep watching over you  

I’ll grab onto your rib cage and never let go 

I can’t die alone  

Because I’m a ghost can’t you see 

 You’ll never be able to live with me
