#3 Surprise

Maybe they don't even realise who you are, let alone care, but does that even surprise you anymore? No...

#19 Jigsaw pieces

I'm losing myself in pieces and you can only stare as you wedge my jigsaw heart into the wounds you helped create.

im urs

little do you know i am entirely yours. no matter how many times you hurt me. no matter how many times you lie to me. i am 100% entirely yours and that's what's most painful. i just keep coming back

#14 Her name

It hurts when you hear her name as it rolls sweetly off his tongue and how you wish her name would sleep soundly on your lips than on his every night...

to wish for more

she longs to be seen to be heard to be felt to be loved to be hoped for and cherished in this world where too many have shed her raw where too many have shut her out where she has been bled dry.

overworked

the tired wrinkles around his eyes; pronounced against the paleness of his skin; gnarled hands incapable of holding hers again - his shoulders no longer look like it can hold mountains - battered broken yet still standing; and she wonders how time can leave someone so relentlessly disfigured; heart and soul and she wishes things were different.

Dead Leaf

Why I can't give up on you? I'm holding onto memories Am I being greedy? I try to repeat the last season I try to I want you who makes eye contact with me I want you who wants me again like the dead leaves that have fallen and are flying away my love collapes weakly If our hands touch It feels like it's going to crumble I can see our relationship starting to wither

numb

Guilt There's guilt inside my heart Numbness I feel nothing as to whatever happened Lethal That same old verse is repeating itself Doing the mundane activities Eyes wide awake Wake up like never got enough sleep Put the blanket over my head Trying hard to sleep again and again Hibernate What dates today What time is it right now How many days I've spent Only to feel nothing

I am Still Here

the sun does rise tomorrow and the world sings with alarm clocks and morning news and cities burst to life and i am still here. even when i haven't wanted to be. still locking up in my own room not having the capability to differ the hour, days, and dates everytime the sun came up would always be a morning everytime the sun goes down would always be a night barely cared about looking at the calendar to tell the date monday or sunday didn't make any difference whatsoever retreated to this solitary state that i am in put aside my cell away let the battery died

Get Back

sometimes i almost forgot how to smile but i'm fine i'm totally okay with it i don't need to smile to stupid things i don't need to force a smile or a laugh i'm already fine with the color grey and black in my life for too long i know its gonna be fine

it kills me it makes me sick I'm drown inside my thoughts I don't feel like me the darkness consumes me I keep telling myself, "you're okay you'll get through this things will get better" when I know deep down I'm Broken

* * *

You loved the ocean The way it moved The way it smelled The way it sang I lay on the cool sand now in the dark listening to it sing The waves are the melody, the birds are the chorus, and the wind is the harmony Remember on sad nights you sang us to sleep
