Faded

You claimed to love me;
Yet I was so easily dropped
Couldn’t you have at least tried carrying me
just a little bit longer?
I guess I was too much of a weight
you couldn’t wait to discard.
You made so many promises
I basked in the glory of your lies
I worshipped the words you spewed
I believed in us
I adored the wrongs you did me
That’s how much I was hooked on you.
Like a butterfly to nectar
you had your fill of me
and then you needed a new flavour.
I’m still here,
I still glow,
Even with the scars
I stare at them every day
They have become my halleluyah.
Theres still sadness in my eyes
I still see no light
I feel like I have no more fight in me.
So, wilted as I am
i’m still hoping your lies will become truth
Call me hopeless
theres nothing romantic about this
Somehow I believe you will wander again
Into my arms
And I’ll be here to receive you
Wholeheartedly
and love you
Like you never even left.

One sided Love

Sometimes you find yourself trying to let go of something But it's like you have been swimming in the ocean For a very very long time And you feel like you belong there You are one with the waves The warmth of the water And your body moves in sync with the ocean And you swim around just trying to stay afloat Then you get tired and you start to drown And you swim back to land When you get there you just feel so heavy Because you lost touch with gravity for so long And you collapse on the beach As you try to find balance again And then your feet finds gravity You stand up and you look at the horizon one last time And just know that no matter how beautiful the sea was And how good it made you feel it was never yours for you to keep And somedays you will miss it, you know And you feel yourself moving with the waves And you dream of diving in Then you realize your feet was meant for land And not cut out for the ocean Maybe you're meant to climb trees Or hi...

Just love her

Image
She would give her soul to feel loved. She would sell herself short to have that love even if its unrequited. Shes walked through fire, her heart's been broken, her feet are sore, no more tears to cry. She wants to be loved, loved with a love so strong, so real, so passionate- loved with the lights on. She wants to be seen, she needs to be mended; she craves for sanity, for an unbroken mind.  She would kill to feel again; she just wants to be loved... A moment, thats all she asks for. Love her like a life depends on it, it just might. Kiss her like a butterfly feeding on the best nectar its ever found, touch her like you're scared she'd be broken, breathe her in like shes the only air you need to survive, adore her like the roses in your garden, treat her like you'll never find anyone better, hold her like you're scared she'd slip away, and fall in love with her like she's all you've ever wanted.  When her flaws make her cringe, and she hides in the ...

Imperfect Strangers

Image
We’ve become strangers to ourselves. We barely say two words to each other. I’m watching you slip away, fading gradually. You’re not even there when I try to talk to you, your mind is on a journey; so, eager to travel, far far away from me. I stare at you but I don’t see you. I feel like I barely know you anymore I talk to you and you forget to smile, but I see you smile at other people. Is there someone else? Are you in love with her? Cause I see she makes you laugh like I used to. She makes you come alive in ways only I used to. I miss us. I miss our little moments, the little things you used to do that meant everything to me.   I miss the nights we get so wasted and talk about our future together. Is it still with me? I'm scared to touch you cause i feel im no longer good enough You dont see me like you used to I;m no longer your world And even as i stay, convincing myself you're good enough for me; all i feel is this loneline...
