poetry

every living thing dies alone

every living thing dies alone

Don’t love me because I love you 

Love me because you mean to  

I know where I really need to be  

But you hold me I’m not really free  

To be who I am without causing stress  

I feel like I am okay now I was such a mess  

Believe me when I say I still pray every night  

I wish you were my god and held me so tight  

No one is worth dying over no one is true  

I thought differently when I first met you  

Way to prove me wrong and regrow my doubt 

Love and faith isn’t really all this is about  

clear my name

 

You tear through me the way fall tears through the trees

 

You’ll leave me completely bare and frail

 

 

 

Said you’d never let me go and you never really did

 

Said you need me in your life and I believe it

 

 

 

 

 

 

he says I make him speechless but somehow I make you run away

 

Don’t you understand what you have?

Others before you have made similar mistakes

They always come running back to me

And babe you should know I never have time to wait

 

And as I get older I learn the different levels of lonely

The newest high I felt is when you hold me

How can being in someone’s arms feel so empty?

At the end of the day I know I’m all I need

 

In the days you didn’t know me that’s when I felt most alive

These days I don’t want to be out I just want to hide

 

So we will hide together away from the sun and everyone

And I’ll just keep smoking until there is no oxygen in my lungs

 

 

she’s prettier anyways

I know you’ll never play her that song

The one in which I’d sing along

You used to stay up with me all night long

Without you, I don’t come off too strong

 

If you were here

If I were there

Honey, we’re going nowhere

 

My love for you will remain as a ghost

You were always the one I cared for most

 

You don’t know love until you know pain

I want to call but I’ll try to refrain

You’re just the only one in my brain

I asked you to stay you said get in your lane
