Description
how to apologizeto the air
that I breathe
for the fear of loss
that costs
everything
when this grip
that grasps
forever
is so suffocating
when your ears
have grown tired
of these
sad songs I sing
see, panic
and I have spent
so much time
alone
that fright forms
my features
etched its shape
in my bones
and while
I long to make
my heart your home
all flaws
in design are
completely my own
I'm awkward
I'm anxious
but I'm also
all yours
for the rest
of the years
my dust circles
this earth
and though I know
to you it must
seem quite absurd
I hope to rebuild
on the strength
of these words
said
I love you
(I'll always
love you)
yes
I love you
(I'll always
love you)

I read it on one breath. It's amazing, the words scar the mind like sandpaper but it's worth it, definetely.

This poem made me think of him,
and then her,
and then him again.
It gets all tangled up inside, my feelings that is.
They seem to rule me these days,
with gusting winds of anger,
unannounced rain showers of sadness,
and tears that come like a tsunami
devouring anything in its path.
When will i be okay?
What is okay-ness,
surely there must be a definition.
So i trace the thoughts in my head
the memories spinning in circles
making me dizzy
no more she screams
i vomit, and i hit the ground
face first
do you feel like a man?
why can't you love me?
please love me, please
please don't go?
i miss you so.
keep me safe
it hurts.
it hurts.
i hurt.
and he's gone forever
and im glad
he never loved me anyhow
or so i tell myself
she whispers in my ear
let go.

Beautiful. It touched my heart and spoke to me like nothing has in awhile... I feel this sometimes.
Change because you want to, and it'll make you happy, not because someone else wants you to and it'll make them happy.
