its pretty hard to comprehend why everything has happened the way it has. things could've gone better, we could both be a little happier, and maybe in a different time or world we would be together. but until then, we wait.

11:11

11;11 eyelashes shooting stars dandelions pointless petals on pretty flowers; waiting and waiting countless hours. All for one wish, that wont come true. You're running away from me while i waste my wishes, love, and time,

It will be

"If it's meant to be, It will be" So I sit And wait Hoping you'll come back. But I see you Every week, With a different girl. And yes, it makes me sad. And yes, sometimes I do cry. But I keep thinking It's meant to be. So I sit And wait For you to come back to me

I need

I need to forget about you. The way you forgot about me. I need to drop you And never look back. I will be fine, As i was a page in your book, You were a chapter in mine.

Back together

You were the one That broke me And I'm still waiting For someone To put me back together

Short poem (with thank you note)

I wonder What hurts more? The scars on my wrists, Or what you did to my heart. You caused both, No surprise. But I thought you'd be Different this time.

Sane

You Brought me light. You are my moon On the darkest night. You said forever And I thought for life. You only stayed For a couple nights. And those nights were glory While my days were pain. I danced through heaven As you screamed my name. But when you left The darkness came And I realised You're the one who kept me sane.

First???

When we met You told me your dreams And I always thought I would be apart of them. I was your first kiss Your first valentine And you were and will always be My first love. Years have passed since Our lovely time. As we grew up You weren't mine. And with another girl The rest of your dreams came true But mine never did Because they all involved you

Requestedddd (dezzy1976)

When I met you in 5th grade It pained me To see you with other girls. So I made a move To get you To be mine and only mine. As the years went on You slowly forgot All the things I would not. I still miss your eyes And your smile And I crave the way you looked at me Every once in a while. And now I'm older But It still pains me

Unspoken words

She smokes He cuts Different things But for the same reasons. She's harmed On the inside He's harmed On the out. Her skin hides The effects Long sleeves Hide his. With the disguises She can't see his pain And he can't see hers. Their eyes tell

Wish

But once again my mind Is flooded with all the thoughts Of what I'm not Perfect Skinny Pretty Happy And with each thought There is another cut With a wish Of finally being loved By someone Anyone Me.

Long Sweaters

On my arms, In the summertime. Its hot outside, But I don't mind. It covers everything I hide. I say its for style, To seem like I don't care, But that's all a lie, I notice everything that's there. Why do I wear sweaters In the summertime? To cover my arms, That are covered with scars. And While you're too focused on my pretty sweaters, I'm silently hoping Everything will get better.
