i. do not confuse love and obsession. love is only real if you have a connection on both sides of the relationship.
ii. it's okay to not always be happy. occasional sadness is healthy for the soul.
iii. life is not fair, at all. you can spend years thinking you're in love with someone while they spend years never thinking about you.
iv. do not treat yourself as others treat you. you are who you are, nothing will change that, you might as well love yourself.
v. love is rare. people get married all the time but that doesn't mean they love each other. sometimes we just get lonely.
vi. feed yourself. your body is a beautiful flower that you must fill with food and nutrients, why would you purposely try to destroy something so wonderful?
vii. maybe we were in love, maybe we weren't. either way we're *******. if we were in love then something must have torn us apart, but what? can it be fixed? if we weren't in love, which I'm guessing we weren't, you moved on to another girl who let you wither away.

I would never let my gorgeous flower wither.

I tried letting you go
But you left footprints
On everything I own

I can't go in my room
Without seeing that *******
Stain on my carpet
I can't sleep in my basement
Or play ping pong anymore
I can't even write ******* poetry
Without you somehow
Creeping into my words
You want me to leave so badly
Why would you leave so many memories?

You're selfish and ******
But you know
I am too
You're a liar and a crier
And I love that about you

I sat on my bedroom floor
And wished to be somewhere free
I'm a claustrophobic person
And I've been trapped in a cell of pain
For nearly three years
I closed my eyes
And prayed to an unfamiliar soul
"Take me away" I screamed
"I want to be happy again"
I did not get an answer
I did not get a sign
I gained a constant feeling of pain

It's times like that
Where I want to believe I'll get better
But none of my prayers were ever answered
I'm still in the cell
But it's getting smaller
How much longer
Until I crack?

Holding together
All these broken fragments
Of what was once a living person
Forcing myself to keep going
I'm almost at the finish line

Things are getting blurry again
I found myself trembling
As I fell to the floor
I've already given up
But I can't let that show
My mother wouldn't be pleased
With this girl she doesn't know

I wrote to you
Every night
Things you would read
But never respond to
Things you would see
But never hold on to

Sometimes I look up
To the moon
And whisper to you
We used to be able
To communicate through the stars
At night

You don't want me here
And trust me
I don't want to be here
Because it ******* hurts
Watching you hate me
When all I've ever done
Was love you
But I still find myself
Writing these ****** poems
About your dumb face

The burning sensation
Spreading throughout my body
It hurts like hell
Like a snake bite

The mornings I have to myself
The sun is awake and well
Clouds so milky and pleasant
And the sweet taste of honey
Fills my mouth

I watch myself through windows
I'm never really there
Ice is blocking
My soul from my body
I don't think it's going to thaw

I am asked how I feel
Nearly every day
Yet I still don't have an answer

To be honest
I don't remember the last time
I felt anything
But fear and loneliness

Fear for the future
Fear that I'll never
Make it through high school
Fear that you will leave me again
Fear that I will never be content with myself

I'm lonely because I'm sad
I'm lonely because I'm scared
I'm lonely because you left
I'm lonely because everyone left

Nothing will ever be okay again
