A STORM TO ME

I thought you were a tornado I thought you would change my life But I wasn't right You were more of a storm
SadMafalda

MEANT TO SOMEONE

I know I shouldn't feel this I shouldn't be asking what if I know I'm the reason it ended But I don't even know what I ended Don't get me wrong I don't regret it But I still wonder what if I still wonder if it was right But I think I know it was We simply weren't meant But it hurts still Maybe I'm not meant for anyone So maybe I'm not hurt Or, at least, not hurt it ended Maybe I'm just hurt Hurt of how I feel now

RAIN

Rain is such a beauty Everyone says it's pretty But everyone covers from it No one wants to enjoy it They say it's beautiful when it comes They say they can't wait But when it does come They don't want it I feel like I'm rain Everybody says I'm a catch But no one wants to catch me They just hide like I'm rain

NO SMILE

When our gaze met I wanted to smile But no answer was on sight So I kept it inside

UN-PERFECT MOM

"You have such a great mom" "I wish I had your mom" "Why don't you talk to your mom?" "I love how I can talk to your mom but not mine" This are all quotes Quotes I've been told But no one knows how she is How she is at home I love her But sometimes I hate her Only if they knew... Of if they knew... If they knew How she stops everything To talk to her boyfriend To listen to him

NEVER THERE

You talk You joke You turn around You walk away You don't look back But maybe you should And see What you never did before I hope one day You'll look back And see How your joke Affected me But for now You just keep making it all Never looking back

TOXIC

As I think about my day As I think about my decisions As I think about my life As I think about my friends As I think about my family As I think about my lost friends As I think about everything I doubt myself I hurt myself I punish myself I hate myself But the more I think The more I realize They aren't the toxic ones, I am. They left me because they had to

Oceans

When people talk about depression About loneliness About that dark place that infests all our minds, They equate it to drowning I say false, It is not drowning But rather being lost at sea Drowning is pain, Drowning is struggle, Drowning is impulse and the bodies reaction to what happening, Drowning is the path to death. Now, Being lost at sea is closer I think. Being lost at sea is suffering, Being lost at sea is pain, Being lost at sea is struggle,

Confusion

I want to talk to you but how can I? I'm still broken Although I'm getting better How can I talk to you, When your mind is still a muddle And you don't know what you want? It would only end in more pain, Pain for you and for me, Brought about by our mutual confusion. Oh how I wish that I could talk to you, That I could hold you in my arms. Lay with you looking up at the stars. I hate what has happened to us. I hate that you won't talk to me. I hate that I cannot bring myself to utter the first words. I hate that I am afraid to...

Letting go

A pain in my chest Too strong to deal with, I try to cut it out. Saved by a loved one But sent away to be with the insane I tried to get better, Listening to the others like me, Helping when I could. I stopped thinking about her, At least to the extent I had before. Most thoughts were of memories, The good times we had shared, Not the bad I has happier though I missed her greatly. But then the world came back, The flashing lights,

The Cold

Is it cold I say As I wipe the tears away My life is such a waste I wish I could just pray But no, I'm not religious And that fact will stay For my motto is to give up And just live another day.
SadLittle_Mystery

I'm Sorry, Sir.

I can't get you out of my head when I know I should, They say I should forget you but only If I could. You're always on my mind, Even when you're un-kind. She's all that you think about, But you still have a doubt. You asked me for advice about her, But I'm sorry, Sir. I can't help you there.
