This House is not a Home

I made this house a home

Yet it doesn't feel like a home at all

Just an address we return to every day

An 30 year prison cell

Watching as time passes by

As we're wondering where it all went

I made this house a home

But it's still two families divided

Meals eaten in separate rooms

No laughter bouncing off the walls

Everyone left to their own devices

Imagining a better world to be apart of

I made this house a home

Yet it lacks no family value

Or emotional safety

No strong bonds to build a connection

And there's no going back to fix the damages

That made this house is not a home

He was drunk... and the words he spoke to me. He meant every part of it. While hiding behind the facade of not being perfect. I never asked him to be. I just wanted him to love me. Instead he reminded me of everything I will never be. While standing beside him.-jeroberts

I've written about him so much. That my feelings became the real villain in our story. -jeroberts

[jerobertsthoughts]

He's the reason why some days I'm floating on cloud nine.

He's also the cause of my ugly cries.

He's the reason why I lost interest in everything I once loved.

Why some days I sit in the dark and fight battles with my inner thoughts.

He's the reason why most nights I can't sleep.

The way he treats me plays on repeat like an endless nightmare.

He's the reason why I'm aggressive, quick to anger and swing moods.

Because he refuses to complete me.

Like my broken pieces can't be glued.

The closest I would get to happiness...

Was having kids but no family.

Was buying a house but not having a home.

Was seeing the world without the one I loved experiencing it with me.

Was accepting your proposal but never making it to the altar. -jeroberts

I'm tired of love taking me in every direction. Except the one that would lead me straight to you.-jeroberts

[jerobertsthoughts]

Forever doesn't scare me as long as I'm with you. Being without you forever is what scares me.-jeroberts

[jerobertsthoughts]

I loved you with my entire soul. While you only loved me with your broken pieces. It took me too many years to learn that we don't love the same.-jeroberts

[jerobertsthoughts]

With you I'm voiceless. Through my poetry is the only time you hear me speak.-jeroberts

i wonder if you’re feeling this same quiet longing that’s keeping me awake.

“I wish I could look you in the eyes and say it- you didn’t just hurt me… you made me feel like loving you was a mistake.”

[quoteastic]

I broke my own heart loving you.

We are all better versions of ourselves when we are loved.

It's always you that makes me smile. Even when I don't want to.-jeroberts
