I thought I found a friend so true,

Someone to trust and talk to,

But as time went on, I began to see,

That she was only using me.

I was just the second option,

A place to vent without caution,

She only talked about her own needs,

Expecting me to answer and feed.

With her other friends, she was more loud,

And when I asked her to hangout,

She always had an excuse to give,

And with her other friends, she'd rather live.

It hurts so much to be used this way,

It's like my heart is thrown away,

I thought she was different, but now I know,

She's just like my past friends, ready to go.

She told me once that she was lucky to meet,

But now I doubt if she was being neat,

Or if she just wanted something from me,

And pretended to care to get it for free.

I feel so stupid to have easily believed,

And now I'm feeling so deceived,

I don't know if she thinks we're friends,

Or if she's just being polite until the end.

I thought I found a friend so great,

But now my heart feels heavy with weight,

I must learn from this painful lesson,

And only keep friends who are true and stand.

[itstimetofall]

I thought that we were solid,

A friendship strong and true,

But now I see the truth revealed,

I'm just a second view.

You come to me with all your woes,

Expecting me to mend,

And yet when I need someone close,

You're nowhere to befriend.

I see you loud and laughing,

With other friends in tow,

And suddenly I'm feeling,

Like there's nowhere left to go.

I thought that we were different,

But now I see the light,

That you were just using me,

To help you through your plight.

I feel so stupid now,

For thinking we were friends,

And yet here I am still holding on,

Hoping that it never ends.

But deep down I know the truth,

Even if it hurts to say,

That maybe we were never friends,

Just passing in each other's way.

So now I'll step back quietly,

And let you go your way,

Because I know I'm not your first choice,

Just a place for you to stay.

[itstimetofall]

As a therapist I sit and listen,

To the stories of those who glisten,

With pain and fear that they hold tight,

Afraid to share, afraid to fight.

One day a young client came to me,

With eyes so sad and heart so heavy,

They spoke of fears that held them down,

Of doubts and worries that made them frown.

As they spoke, I listened with care,

Hearing echoes of my own despair,

Memories of my younger years,

Of pain and hurt, of doubts and fears.

But I didn't interrupt or say a word,

For I knew the silence was preferred,

To let them speak and share their heart,

To let them know they're not apart.

For I too had feared to speak,

To be judged, to be weak,

But here I am, a listening ear,

To help them through the pain and fear.

And though I didn't reveal my past,

I knew that our connection would last,

For in their eyes, I saw my own,

And in their heart, I saw my home.

[itstimetofall]

Sitting in my chair, I listen with care

As my client speaks, their burdens to share

Their voice is familiar, yet I can't quite tell

Why their story is one that rings a future bell

As they speak of struggles that I have yet to face

I can't help but wonder, what is this strange place?

Is it possible that time has played a trick?

That this person before me is a version of me, yet to exist?

They speak of their worries, their hopes, and their fears

And as I listen, my own eyes fill with tears

For I know what lies ahead, the journey they'll take

The decisions they'll make, the paths they'll forsake

But I cannot change the future, I can only provide

A listening ear, a safe space to confide

And so I sit and listen, as they speak their truth

Knowing that someday, I'll be in their shoes

For time is a circle, it twists and it turns

And what we think we know, we have yet to learn

So I'll take this moment, and hold it dear

For it's not every day, that the future draws near.

[itstimetofall]

Happy song, bitter steps,

My heart skips to the melody's rep,

Yet my feet drag with every beat,

Memories of you weigh down my steps.

The joyous tune fills my ears,

But my eyes remain clouded with tears,

For every note that brings me bliss,

A pang of sorrow steals the hiss.

The rhythm bounces in my veins,

But the pain of loss still steps.

The lyrics of the tune so bright,

Remind me of our past delight,

The laughter, love and all the fun,

Now vanished like the setting sun.

The rhythm and the joyful notes,

Make me want to dance and float,

But as I move, it's out of synch,

My heart aches in a way so distinct.

For every time I hear this song,

A part of me sings along,

But the memory of our love awakes,

And I'm left with bitter steps to take.

So I dance with tears in my eyes,

And hold back all the painful sighs,

Happy song, bitter steps,

Reminding me of love's regrets.

When you're young, people assume you know nothing

That you're naive and always bluffing

They disregard your thoughts and your voice

As if you're just a child playing with toys

[itstimetofall]

But they don't understand the toll it takes

On my mind and my soul

To constantly strive for perfection

When all I really need is a passing grade, to reach my goal

The years have gone by in a flash

And my priorities have shifted so much

What once consumed my every thought

Now barely makes a passing touch

I used to fret and worry so much

Overpassing grade

The workload is overwhelming

Yet I find myself procrastinating

Leaving assignments till the last minute

And scrambling to complete them

Years go by and I realize

That the stress I put on myself

To keep up with grades and expectations

Wasn't worth sacrificing my mental health

So now I take a different approach

I do what I can and let go of the rest

As long as I'm moving forward

I know I'm doing my best

So don't be confused when I don't panic

About the pile of work waiting for me

I've learned that sometimes it's okay

To just let things be.

[itstimetofall]

The lure of a world so bright and fair,

Fills my heart with joy beyond compare.

Yet as I venture deeper in,

A twisted tale of lies begins.

This world of fantasy has me hooked,

I feel it holds more than it looks.

A place where pain is lost to time,

Where troubles fade and all is fine.

The pull has grown too strong to fight,

I'm lost within it's dazzling light,

And so I stay and let it be,

As this world illuminates me.

But as time passes by, I see,

The cost this world has brought to me.

It's taken more than I can give,

And bade farewell to how I live.

I'm trapped inside a world of lies,

And every day that passes by

Becomes an endless search for light,

In a world that holds no will to fight.

The grip this world has over me,

Is much too strong to break and flee.

So here I'll stay, so far from real,

And hope one day to break the seal.

A world so bright, a world so sweet,

It's addicting nature tough to beat.

In this reality I long to reside,

But breaking free is hard to abide.

[itstimetofall]

A feeling that's foreign,

A mystery to some,

The pangs of separation,

For me, they never come.

Friends come and go,

Relatives drift away,

But I don't feel the emptiness,

That comes when they don't stay.

I don't know what's wrong,

Why I don't feel the pain,

Of missing those I love,

When they're not here again.

Perhaps I'm just wired different,

Or my heart beats a different tune,

But I know that I'm still human,

And I'll love in my own way soon.

[itstimetofall]

I see you there, feeling unsure,

Wondering if you're just a backup, a lure,

For your friend to use when they need,

But cast aside when their other friends succeed.

It's a familiar feeling, one you've felt before,

With ex-friends who left you feeling insecure,

Like you were never quite good enough,

And always left feeling like a backup.

But this friend felt different, special, unique,

Someone who saw you for who you are, not just a freak,

But now you're not so sure, the doubts seep in,

Wondering if you're just a backup again.

You see them with their other friends, having a blast,

And you wonder if you're the one who's last,

On their list of priorities, someone they can ignore,

When their other friends come knocking at the door.

[itstimetofall]

I thought you were different, a friend unlike the rest,

Someone who saw me for who I am, and not just as a guest.

But now I'm feeling insecure, like I did before, With my ex-friends who left me wanting more.

I don't know if you see me as a second option or not,

But the feeling is there, and it's all I've got. I wish I could shake it off, and trust in our bond,

But the fear of being left out is a constant beyond.

Maybe it's just my own self-doubt,

That's making me feel left out.

But it's hard to shake these thoughts away,

When they've been here before, day by day.

I wish I could know for sure,

That I'm not just an afterthought, something obscure.

That you value me as much as the rest,

And that our friendship is truly the best.

But until then, I'll try to push these thoughts aside,

And trust in you, and in our friendship to abide. For even if I'm just a second choice,

I'll still cherish our bond, and raise my voice.

To say that I'm here, and I care for you,

And that I'll be here, no matter what we go through.

For even if my fears come true,

I'll still be here, a loyal friend to you.

[itstimetofall]

Once again I find myself in this place,

Wondering if I'm just a second-rate face.

Feeling like a backup, a last resort,

Like I'm not really wanted, like I'm out of sorts.

I thought I'd left these feelings behind,

That I'd moved on from that bitter kind.

But now they're back, and just as strong,

And I can't help but feel that something's wrong.

It's like with my ex-friends all over again, Feeling like I'm not part of the main.

Wondering if you really care,

Or if you're just being polite, or even unaware.

I want to trust and believe in our bond,

That we're more than just a friendship beyond. But the fear of being left behind,

Makes me wonder if I'm just out of my mind.

I don't want to be a second choice,

A backup plan without a voice.

I want to feel valued and secure,

And know that our friendship will always endure.

So if you ever doubt how much I care,

Just know that I'm always here to share.

And if you ever feel the same way too,

I'll be here to support and see you through.

[itstimetofall]

Again I find myself in doubt,

Wondering if I'm just a fallback route.

A second choice, a backup plan,

A consolation prize, a second-hand.

I try to shake these thoughts away,

But they linger on, day by day.

I wonder if you truly see,

How much your friendship means to me.

Do you value me as much as the rest?

Or am I just a friend, second best?

I wish I knew just where I stand,

But the uncertainty is hard to withstand.

Maybe it's just my own insecurity,

Making me doubt your sincerity.

But it's hard not to feel this way,

When it's happened before, day by day.

So I'll try to push these thoughts aside,

And trust that our friendship will abide.

But the fear of being second best,

Will always be a lingering test.

[itstimetofall]

Neverland, my sweet escape

A world of dreams where I can take

Flight into skies of fairytales,

Where time is but a mere detail.

I've danced with Peter, sung with Tink,

Laughed with Lost Boys, without a blink.

The sound of waves, the breeze so mild,

A place where magic is compiled.

But as the sky begins to fade,

And gently whispers "time to change,"

I know I must accept the truth,

Bid farewell to my youth.

With memories of Neverland,

I'll step forth to understand,

The challenges that lie ahead

And all that can be born and bred.

So farewell, my dearest realm,

I'll keep you close, within my helm.

And though I must now say goodbye,

The spirit of Neverland will never die.

Inspo:Farewell, Neverland by TXT

[itstimetofall]

I knew from the start, it was a fantasy, My love for you, a distant reality. I watched you on the screen, with eyes so bright, Asking the heavens, to bring you in my sight.

I knew you were famous, loved by millions, But in my heart, you could have been my sole billion. I watched you smile, and my heart skipped a beat, Hoping one day, with you, I'd be complete.

But then I realized, there'll be someone new, Someone else who will make your heart renew. And that hurt, more than I could ever say, As I watched you from afar, each passing day.

I know we'll never be together, that's not what I seek, But watching someone else, admire the smile, that I once did seek, It hurts, more than words can convey, Watching my dreams, slowly fade away.

But I'll keep on smiling, keep on pretending, That one day, our paths will keep on blending. And no matter who sees your smile, up close and true, I'll always admire the idol, that I once knew.

[itstimetofall]

I watch you from afar, my heart in tow, Your smile, your voice, oh how they glow. But deep within, I know the truth, That there's someone else, who will have the proof.

Someone else who will see you smile, And make your heart skip, if only for a while. Even though I knew, we could never be, It still hurts, it still pains me to see.

To know that I'll never be that one, The one who sees you when you're undone, The one who brings light to your eyes, And makes your heart feel like it could fly.

It feels like a dagger to my heart, Knowing that I'll never have a part, In the story of you and I, Where I could make you happy, and never say goodbye.

But as time goes by, I'll learn to cope, And cherish the moments, where you gave me a glimmer of hope. I'll be your fan, from near and far, And always love the idol, that you are.

[itstimetofall]

I knew from the start, that we could never be, Though I held onto hope, oh so fervently. I watched your every move, your every smile, And cherished the moments, I saw from a far.

But now I have to face, a painful truth, That someone else will see you, in your youth. Someone else who will witness, your breathtaking smile, As I sit here, knowing, it will only be for a while.

It stings a bit, I can't deny, To see you light up for someone else's eye, But I know in my heart, your happiness counts more, Than any feelings, that I could ever encore.

I'll stay true as a fan, to the idol I adore, And bask in the memories, I've collected before. I'll watch you rise, to the top of the sky, And still feel the love, that refuses to die.

So, go ahead, and smile for someone new, For your happiness, is all that counts, and that is true. As I move on, I'll carry a part of you with me, And cherish the moments, even though we could never be with glee.
