poetry

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

 

there is some heaven hidden in hell if you can believe it

You’ve always been an open book and I’ve always been above your reading level

 

You’ve always tried to play it safe and I’ve always been a bit of a rebel

 

I push your limits when you want to take it slow

 

I wish I knew better but I obviously don’t know

 

I’ve always been pretty bad at waiting

And every day I see you changing

 

 

 

 

don’t want to admit it’s killing me right now

 

Hate to think you’re less than gold

But I’m alone

 

Our hearts in different hands

The thought of you with her I can’t stand

But I’ll keep stable

While I’m still able

 

I miss you and I shouldn’t

Abandon you, I couldn’t

 

 

You miss the way I talk with my eyes

I miss the way you’d tell me lies

Like you love me

 

 

 

terrified of repeats

 

I am not being dramatic

I have simply learned from the past

 

You ask if I’ll bleed for you

But blood loss is so fatal

And I’m already running on low

 

It starts with a wall

A broken cell screen

Soon there will be nothing

For you to break but me

 

I always attract such selfish boys

Ones who view me as a toy

When all I do is try to create joy

 

selfish vs selfless; a classic love affair

it is what it is because you believed in everyone but me

you could never see what was in front of you it was me

stuck around no matter what you did, that was also me

some people never learn and i wish that wasn’t me

coming back again i’m not sure what you are giving me

but i need to be free

i wish you could see

whats this means

for me

 

stumped lifelines

 

I’m letting you go the way a tree lets go to a saw

 

I keep going back and forth with you

And even though it seems like I’m making no progress

 

My cut gets deeper and deeper every time

 

Green painted to black

You’ll never have me back

 

nose ring

it’s starts with a single dream

And then I infect your brain

You won’t be thinking straight

Won’t cause you too much pain

 

 

Until the memories start bouncing back

We could never keep on the same track

It was the hunger and passion you lack
