(Written Spring 2013) It’s over, it has been. You’re part of my past then. I hate that you’re involved with my friends. It’s like I’ll never get to hear the end. Thanks for proving everything right. all that shit that would always make me cry and fight. What was the whole fucking point? nothing that can’t be fixed with a bowl or a joint. That’s your solution to everything. Hit when you cry, hit when you sing, hit when you pick up the phone to give me a ring. You never even listened though, just a wall so blank and slow. the fuck was I thinking? fun loving and sinking. Into a world that wasn’t for me, becoming someone I never wanted to be. What’s sex if that’s all you know? What’s love? Besides just a show. I don’t believe in you, I don’t even believe in myself. I don’t believe in hope or maintaining good wealth. What’s health if it isn’t with you? What’s red if it makes me feel blue? You took my heart and showed me it was still in pieces, you sucked the life out of me like a thousand leeches. Now here I am, cold as ice. It took not once, not twice, but thrice. I know I’m not meant for things like this, I know this is something I’d rather miss. So what if I’m alone and nobody cares? A fool is the one who tries and dares. I gave you my heart, I gave it all. I don’t know why you let me fall. You said I was special, you said you were true. You didn’t see things the way I do. how could we be together if we didn’t know forever? What you saw as one, I saw as five, agreeing never. Yet you forced us to try, said We’d get it right. You forced us no matter how sad I’d cry or fight. I gave up everything, I’d give up anything. To see that smile forever, to know something. Something as true as what I thought we had. Something more real than my mom and dad. Now I know, more than ever, that stuff doesn’t exist. It’s short lived like a thick fog or fresh mist. On a lonely night that’s cold and blue, this is something I wouldn’t have missed. But other than that, I’ll always remember the first time we kissed. For that moment in time, against that brick wall, I seriously and honestly thought that I’d have it all. Now I’m just a mean, rather cold hearted bitch, my heart skips no beats, not even a twitch. Love, love is just an idea created by man kind, it wasn’t made for me but it sure seems divine. If ever again our hearts do intertwine, you’ll be mine, forever mine, I say that though because I know it can’t be true, it’s a fictional tale, and it’s called Me and You.
