Without You



Some places 
have memories 
so distinct  
that no matter 
where you end up 
or 
who you go with 
how much you try  
to alter your experience  
memories will always find 
a way back to you   
 
I come here  
with all my sadness  
and happiness.  
I think of how long it has been.  
I smile because of you  
It is strange  
I thought you could  
never make me smile  
again. You have your ways, 
old friend.  
I hear the waves  
of the water fall back  
and forth, I think I hear  
your voice so I turn around 
but you’re not there. 
I turn around and my 
stripped blue dress twirls 
against my black seat,  
so elegantly,  
perfectly 
without 
you.

A neverending story

Speak to me (part 1) As I try to be me, you come back in my face and you know your smile always gets me. Our little small talk mesmerize me with the things you call “just being nice”. Get real, or get out. You don’t try and it does get to me. My voice weakens as I call your name because its not worth it. What is worth waiting for the day you call me again. The compliments are not worth it. If nothing is worth it, I don’t know what is. ` Strength and will I am done being your lullaby every night. You used to tell me you loved me every day. It sickens me how we were once one because you are not deserving of me. Please, I know how to werk it. I definitely do not need you and your ways to persuade me back in your life. Do not grab me by the hand and try to catch my look I do when I know you mean it. Once you leave, I’ll fall and you’ll laugh. So please leave me alone forever. I already left long ago. Just don’t talk or walk towards me. You have the wrong person in your hands. To

What do I know?

Where are you? It's been days. Months. No call, nor text. I can't laugh without, the thought of you popping in my mind. It's a rush of emotions hitting my face, I don't know whether to stare or cry. It's a force that I'm struggling with, holding the emotion in or pulling you towards me. And I don't know why you do this. Without you, I die inside. I see you everywhere, I think about you anywhere. I see you in my dreams, will it be okay if I say that to you the next day? We can look intensely into each others eyes. Who knows what will happen next? I cry late at night and, I don't know why but I do. No matter what happens, you dont look at me the same way. My cries for attention, don't effect you. Nothing I do... No, I don't know what I do. I did something that you used to love And I don't know, why

Secrets (part 1)

Hi again, you left! But its cool. I survived. You came back and greeted me with a kiss on the cheek. It felt like things changed. Like you did. So I did. It was all laughs, hugs and kisses. You know I can't deny my love for you.  We would get lost in each others eyes and gaze off into the moonlight as we hold each others hand. The talks about life, future & us - it just made sense. Well, didn't everything? It was like the perfect beginning to the most epic love story.  Believe me, I tried. Was it me? Like why couldn't we make it work? I guess I was  at fault when I trusted you.
