Recover

I thought I was over you,

but I was wrong.

 

I miss you,

but your feelings are gone.

 

I still love you with everything that I have,

even though I know all I will get is a cold shoulder back.

 

You used to look at me with love and admiration,

but now your eyes have turned cold and completely vacant.

 

Your arms used to be my home,

but they have become stiff and hard to hold. 

 

My heart tries to mold,

but at this point it feels like it's been swallowed, 

your keeping it in a choke-hold.

 

Suffocating in your indifference,

drowning in your kiss of absence,

I know I will never be able to recover from this.

  • CONVENIENCE

    I hate that I am only loved when you feel like it,

    like I'm lovable but only when there is nothing better,

    you miss me but you just miss having me as an option,

    you wish I was there but only when nobody else is free. 

  • I want to LIVE

    I want to live,

    I want to hear a million songs and dance in the rain,

    I want to kiss and make love,

    I want to see the world from every angle,

    meet people that I will love and ones I won't,
