When we met,
I was haunted, broken, bruised,
And you fixed me,
Filled the spaces with golden honey,
Healed me until I was strong,
But you did too good a job,
I'm too independent,
Thank you for healing my heart,
But you were my saviour, not my love.

I write to get my emotions out, to ease the pain, to help me get rid of disgustingly strong feelings for people, to reflect on certain situations and remind myself that I deserve more than what I got in the past. I spent so long, thinking it was wrong to fall hard, when in reality, it was wrong to settle for nothing but cheap words and ******* promises. Love is never wrong, unless you're falling for the one who won't bother catching you. That's a heartbreaking thing to realize, and to accept, especially when it's a person who easily affects you in every aspect.
Never settle for less than you deserve. Love the one who loves you. Don't make the same mistake I did.
Just a vent. Not a poem.

you care like no one ever has before
do I deserve that?

No one told us love was dangerous
Nor took the time to explain
How it would tear our lives apart
And leave behind this pain

Would we have even listened
If they had stopped to take the time
Though love is not deaf in it's reasoning
Love can still be blind

And blindness is what lead the way
Holding hands with the both of us
Keeping us from reading the sign
Caution...Love Is Dangerous

Not my fault

It's not my fault
that sleep doesn't come to me easily,
that the thoughts in my mind will not leave me,
that it takes two hours before I drift off completely
(sometimes even three).

It's not my fault
that my hands and legs would not stop fidgeting,
that I find the littlest things very distracting,
(like how the clock never stops ticking)
that I like to keep repeating.

It's not my fault
that sometimes I can't breathe,
that I'm not the person who you would want to be with,
that sometimes I don't want to live.

It's not my fault that I have a condition.
Or maybe it is.
