Anxiety
Heart thumping
Blood pumping
Mind racing
Vision blurring
Chest constricting
I can't think,
I can't see,
I can't breathe
How do I make it stop?
This feeling of helplessness,
This feeling of despair.
How do I make it stop?
These thoughts running through my mind,
These tears falling from my eyes.
When will the fear end?
When will the pain end?
I refuse to live like this.
I refuse to give in,
I will fight.
If I lose,
At least I swung.
Blood pumping
Mind racing
Vision blurring
Chest constricting
I can't think,
I can't see,
I can't breathe
How do I make it stop?
This feeling of helplessness,
This feeling of despair.
How do I make it stop?
These thoughts running through my mind,
These tears falling from my eyes.
When will the fear end?
When will the pain end?
I refuse to live like this.
I refuse to give in,
I will fight.
If I lose,
At least I swung.

Memories
Memories,
They haunt me
Taunt me
Was it really that good?
Or is it all in my head?
Memories,
Of your voice
And the choice
I made, to walk away
Memories,
Of time spent together,
The innocence and purity
Memories,
Of the hands held
Of the laughter shared
Of the cuddles and hugs
Memories,
Are all that are left now
And that's okay
They are all I need.
They haunt me

Or is it all in my head?

Of the laughter shared
Of the cuddles and hugs

Are all that are left now
And that's okay
They are all I need.

Want
I want you to look at me
The way you do her
I want you to think about me
The way you do her
I want you to feel for me
What you feel for her
But truthfully,
I might as well say
That I want to hold the moon in my hands
That I want to walk on the sun
That I want to go to the core of the earth
For I know,
You won't do any of that.
I'll keep wanting all these impossible things.
It's okay,
A girl can only hope
The way you do her
I want you to think about me
The way you do her
I want you to feel for me
What you feel for her
But truthfully,
I might as well say
That I want to hold the moon in my hands
That I want to walk on the sun
That I want to go to the core of the earth
For I know,
You won't do any of that.
I'll keep wanting all these impossible things.
It's okay,
A girl can only hope

Never
We were never really dating,
But we didn't pursue other people.
We were never in love,
But we looked into each others' eyes the way lovers do.
I never loved myself,
But you taught me how to do it.
You had insecurities,
But I showed you how perfect you were.
But after all this,
After sleepless thoughtful nights,
I came to realise,
I was never yours
And you were never mine.
But we didn't pursue other people.
We were never in love,

Done.
She was done,
Done feeling sorry for herself
Done doubting her own strength
Done trying to please him
Done trying to make him love her
Done playing a part in his life
Done waiting on him
She realised that she deserved better
She deserved to be appreciated
To be loved
Now,
She's moving on
She's happy.
Just like her, I'm moving on
Leaving you in my past
I am watching you become a memory
And honestly
It doesn't bother me anymore.

Erase.
I want to erase
Erase my memories of you
Memories of your touch
Your gaze
Your lips
Your voice
Your laughter
Erase,
Those memories
That haunt me in the night
Those memories
That make my heart bleed
Those memories
That torment me
I want to live a life
Free of the pain
That I brought on myself
By letting you in
I want to forget
To forget everything
Maybe then,
I'll be free from you.
Erase my memories of you
Memories of your touch
Your gaze
Your lips
Your voice
Your laughter

I want to live a life
Free of the pain
That I brought on myself

I want to forget
To forget everything
Maybe then,
I'll be free from you.

In love and alone.
You look into his eyes
Thinking to yourself
How did you get there
So madly in love
Love,
A word that, for so long, meant nothing
Yet,
In that moment
It means everything
But then reality strikes
And you realise
You are in this alone
Yes, he cares
Yes, he likes you
But you know that he won't love you
Then you think to yourself,
How did you get here,
In love and alone.

Dreams.
I had a dream.
In my dream,
I was nothing to you
You told me I was unworthy
You told me you didn't care anymore
You told me you had no time.
The worst part is,
Even when I'm awake,
You still have no time for me
I'm still not worthy of you
And it seems you don't care for me anymore
But it's okay,
Maybe I'm not meant for you.

She remembered.
She sat in her living room
Listening to some sappy love song
Her heart flattered
It was back
That ache that was so familiar
She embraced it
She let it take her to a different world
She willed herself to remember
To remember everything that happened
She remembered the first time she saw him
He looked like perfection
And to her, he was exactly that,
Perfection
She remembered the first time he held her hand
How he made her feel complete
She remembered their first fight
She remembered the first time he said...

Your world
You tell me that you love me,
Yet the way you look at her says different.
You tell me that I'm special,
Yet you treat me like I'm ordinary.
You tell me that I'm your world,
Yet you act like I don't exist.
You tell me that you care,
Yet you're never around when I need you
You must live in a world,
Where words mean nothing
Where promises are meant to be broken
Where love is just in words
Where care is nothing more than a pat on the shoulder
Where the heart and soul are merely parts of a person that mean nothing.
I can't live...

You.
I gave you my mind,
and you loved it.
I gave you my thoughts,
and they amazed you.
I gave you my heart,
and you gladly took it.
I gave you my secrets,
and you made them yours.
I gave you my dark side,
and for some reason, you accepted me.
Yet,
I still wasn't enough.
You made me believe,
only to break me .
You made me happy,
only to cause me unfathomable sorrow.
You gave me hope ,
only to shutter it.
Now I sit here
my heart broken
my eyes welling up with tears
my soul torn to pieces
