why cant i let go of you
You say my name,
I don’t expect it,
I stutter,
Brushing hands,
Pretend it didn’t happen,
Keeping distance we stay afar,
So far,
So close,
I can’t let go,
Did you?
Do you ever think about it like I do?
The good,
The bad,
They all relapse in my head,
I can’t let go of you.
I don’t expect it,
I stutter,
Brushing hands,
Pretend it didn’t happen,
Keeping distance we stay afar,
So far,
So close,

Do you ever think about it like I do?
The good,
The bad,
They all relapse in my head,
I can’t let go of you.

My P.O.V
A daughter,
Is that really what I am?
Screaming out like a surge,
Tears like waves crash over,
Hard to convey my sorrow when numb has been my life,
And heartbroken is something I know too well,
hopeless , worthless, nothing, a mist of lies seep through, shattered, cloudy skies are my only company as I lie awake in a foreign bed, my mind is a hurricane or hallucinations, anger washes over me like a flooded street, I don’t want to be okay, I can’t, I can’t hold through the storm, this frigid wind.

Moms P.O.V
My little girl, voice choked by misty clouds filling her eyes, I, shocked, stalled, secondary took over; a blow of anger though beneath the veil I am heartbroken, Lacerations make of her, a lonely letter left behind by her, Exposed is the only aftermath a portray, hopelessness I hold, rough sky’s, how long can I stand through this downpour; separated, we take away through fog, calling for help I choke on an icy gust, melancholy nights as I wait, longing for hope, a clear sky, I grasp at tangents floating by, wishing my little girl was okay, warm, safe, and dry, though hurt and frail an...

You
Strings still bare,
My heart throbs,
A pulse,
A melancholy flutter,
You,
Something about you,
I can let go of,
You,
Passing presence,
Coming in contact,
And brushing it away,
You see,
Every so often when I stare,
I look away,
Hope you know nothing,
You,
I promised I’d be there,
And you,
I parted,
Aching guilt,
Throbbing regret,
Painful eyes and sorrow filled mind,
You,
Something about you,
I can’t let go of,
But you,
I parted,
All this time,
Strings still...

I'm sorry
Why do I still care?
Troubled eyes,
Lonely breath,
Trying to catch up and move on,
I’m sorry,
Broken farewell,
Lost hope,
Weary dreams,
I’m sorry,
Find myself thinking and I can’t bring myself back,
I can’t stop these feet from sinking,
Please don’t let this be all you see,
I’m sorry,
Living a pattern,
This is what I’m meant to be,
Losing faith,
I’m sorry.

I love you
Have faith”,
I was losing it,
“Stay strong”
I was feeling too weak,
“I love you”
Nothing brings me back better than that,
And I think I’ve found you do,
We skip along to the rhythm of life,
Growing older,
I’d only do it with you,
Chapped lips,
Stolen kisses,
Wrapped in your arms,
It’s the safest place,
Holding your hand,
It’s the most wonderful thing,
Kissing your lips,
It’s my interminable desire,
I look to you with a smile for no other,
You sit beside me over the beautify lit city,
I couldn’t...

A fool for you
Half-awake still dreaming bout you,
Feeling your love is all I wish for,
Need your lips on mine,
Think my countenance should tell you where else,
Loving you never gets old,
Love with you will never be dry,
I’m a fool for you,
Be a fool for me,
Love me tonight,
You’re all I want,
I’m only a fool for you,
Be a fool just for me,
Love me all night,
I’ll be everything you need,
Half-awake still dreaming bout you,
Feeling your love is all I need.

Love me tonight,

I’m only a fool for you,
Be a fool just for me,
Love me all night,
I’ll be everything you need,
Half-awake still dreaming bout you,
Feeling your love is all I need.

Broken girl
I want to say I’m okay,
But I’m not….
I try to speak up and say what I feel,
The words just won’t come,
My mind closes off and a delusion takes place,
Just a smile,
Just the brush of a hand,
Crystal eyes in these torn up goodbyes,
I sit there, my head in my knees,
I ponder why I feel this way and how to make it fade away,
My stomachs tied in knots,
I feel fragile and unsettled,
My mind shuts off and ignores what’s going on,
I know I’ve tried and I know I want to,
But I can’t get out I just can’t escape, ...
But I’m not….

Losing my mind
Staring blankly at what I once found hope in,
Losing my mind,
Breaking down inside,
Don’t know what’s wrong with me,
Why do I wish for such horrible things?
I should care and I should love,
But all I want is my own space,
Go away flee this place,
And get out of my damn face!
Don’t want this fucking shit,
Don’t want you to convince me,
Don’t want you to love me,
Once upon a time I would have told them “hold on”,
Now I’d tell “it ain’t my problem”,
Don’t want this fucking shit,
Get out of my damn face!

lost girl
Sweet and endearing,
Yet truly frail within,
Pondering life, she feels so lost,
Smiling and saying she’s okay,
She goes through the motions,
Hoping for happiness and dreaming of rapturous loves,
Feeling numb but flooded with emotions,
Thinking she’ll fail her motivation has faded,
Knowing she not okay she brushes it aside,
Believing in others seems to be so easy,
Believing in herself seems to be too hard,
Sorrow fills her eyes as she looks to her reflection,
Seeing lost girl,
A single tear falls,
And her eyes drift away, ...

I'm done
Now I’m sitting in the corner wishing I were dead,
People walk by and don’t notice I’m dying inside,
A school full of hypocrites even my best friend pushes me aside,
All my regrets wash over me, they consume me like animals,
I wish I never left you,
I wish I never lost you,
I wish I never left the fucking light on!
I’ve grown tired of this feeling,
Get the fuck out!
I walk around this school I’ve become the fucking hypocrites,
I act like I’m fine and I say that I’m okay,
But my mind runs over with a different story,
I’m dying, I’m...
