I can’t be the only girl 

Who thinks it’s crazy

How we live in an age

Where asking for the “I” in I love you 

Is normal? 

Because I’m the kind of girl

I keep reaching

for something I know I can't have

But I decide

To waste my energy anyway

All I want is for

you to look at me

The way you look at him

I'm searching for that

To hold on to

I am an enigma; forever stepping in front of mirrors attempting to angle myself in the perfect position to be loved; always making myself smaller than I seem in order to be seen.

What you gave me everyday

Was never really love. 

It was toxic, poison, 

You stained my blood black.

All of your words

I realize were all lies. 

Even the ring on my finger

Her eyes light up the galaxy

They shine like golden stars,

And on her face a rainbow peeks

Beyond her bleeding scars.

Atop the hill of vanquished beasts
