Your Love is a Headache
Your love is like a headache.
I can't think, and
I can't breath.
You're suffocating me.
You're always too close.
You're always touching me
And, at first, it was
Great to have this much
Affection aimed at me.
It made me feel good,
But then, it got to
A point where it was
Just way too much for me.
I love you, but the
Way you show you
Care hurts me. Seriously.
If I'm in the middle of
Speaking, I...
I can't think, and
I can't breath.
You're suffocating me.
You're always too close.
You're always touching me
And, at first, it was

Playing Pretend
Can I pretend
For even a
Moment,
That you're not
You and I'm not
Me. And that I do
Not mean anything to
You (which could be true).
Can I pretend
For even a
Moment,
That I'm not paranoid
That every other girl
In this hallway is
Looking at you,
Or worse,
They see me looking
At you. And it hurts
So badly. My heart.
It's gone. I hate it. I love
You. I LOVE you. So much.
I love you. I hate it.
I am broken.
And I can't pretend
For even a
Moment,
That I haven't always...

Soul Bruising
This is all
Because of you. Again.
My very soul is bruised.
I wanted you and I
Can't even look you
In the eyes anymore.
I should've guessed
As much. Why would I
Deserve any better than
This? Both of us know
That you barely even
Understand me at all.
My heart goes much
Deeper than you think. But,
Somehow, you've managed
To bruise my soul. And you
Must be so proud of
Yourself to have hurt me
Enough that I'd need to ...

On the First Intake
Electricity,
Violently through me...
Pain followed by the gentle
Aftershock of bliss. I am
Complete.
That hole that was
Once my soul is
Now filled. I wish I
Could say that I regret
Doing this, but it's
The only way I can feel
Okay. The only way.
My heart beats, and
The whole room is
Spinning. Spinning.
Spinning. Spinning.
And I love the way
That it feels. Heaven
Is so far out of my
Grasp, but Hell is
Easy to fall in to.
I'm flying... falling... ...

To be Beside you
I can't stand to be
Beside you... even
If it's only for a brief
Moment. It just hurts so
Much. It feels like you
hammered a nail into
My heart. You already
Knew my heart was
Completely yours to
Break. Well, it's not
Yours anymore, but I
Can still feel the pain.
It's as real as it was just
Yesterday. It still feels
The same. And it won't
Fucking go away. I can't
Get away from that
Promise that I made to
Always love you. It breaks
me inside to break a
Promise I made to you.
Even a promise you didn't...

Like Absolute Shit <3
I fucking hate corny-ass love poems.
I hate reading them and I
Hate writing them even more.
You shouldn't have asked me
To write one for you.
Because, it's gonna turn out like
This. Like absolute shit.
I'm not going to write about how
Amazing you are, or how you make
My life worth living again. I'm not
Going to write about how you are
The only one I would ever need to
Have with me. I would never write
About just how much you mean to
Me. Or how you made me need you.
Or, worst of all, how much I love you.
No way would...
