and
i have never
prayed for anything so badly
but i remember
begging the universe
that if it could hear me somehow
all i want is a chance to make it work
it was when
i was on the verge
of losing you
that i realized
i've never wanted anything more
i can't
was all you said
and that was the end of it all
2 words
5 letters
i've never been hurt
by anything more
i asked you
if we could talk on the phone
and you said sure
so i called you
and you picked it up
baby can we talk about this
i was in tears
and i couldn't breathe
what is there to talk about
you were nonchalant
unemotional
i was upset
i was angry
every thought on my mind
was screaming at you
but i held myself back
because it wouldn't make a difference
and holding it inside me
broke me down even more
do you think
we are together?
10. it's been 4 years, and yet you are still able to
inspire me to write.
if i could,
i would
take you on a journey
and make you live it
on repeat
- vengeance
at the beginning
it was only a little
like a ball getting into motion
and then it happens
all at once
tumbling down at full speed
everything that was built
comes crashing down
all at once
me,
falling for you
and you,
feeling the same
without you
i'm feeling like
i don't have enough
hurt is pain
hurt is despair
hurt is overthinking
hurt is wanting revenge
hurt is wishful thinking
wondering if it would change anything
if they know how you feel
before convincing yourself
that it doesn't matter
because they don't know
and they don't care
and they don't care
hurt is
being awake for fifteen nights straight
completely exhausted but you still can’t sleep
the time is six in the morning
and you woke up with a mind full of thoughts
and you can't remember
if you drifted off at some point
or if you stayed awake for six hours straight
hurt is
repeating the same question
over and over again
trying to look for different conclusions
but coming to the same answer every time
perhaps it’s time for you to move on
but how the fuck did it come to this?
your brother
still watches my stories
did you know that?
is it strange that
i just crave for your presence
without an actual reason?
other nights,
i wonder
does it really matter?
i remember it hurt
so I muted you on all my notifications
i tried to pretend you didn't exist
despite you being in my mind all the time
but at least i don’t see you on my instagram feed
i muted you for a long time
although i'd still go to your profile
like it’s a daily routine
like it's an addiction i can't get rid of
phone lights up
wrong notification
maybe tonight isn’t the night
but i’ll be alright
- dating advice
there is beauty
in loving someone
even if they don’t love you back
the same way
