I am worth something
I deserve to be hugged
I deserve to be touched
I deserve to be loved
Tag: relationship
What does it matter anyway?
Just so so broken
A million pieces shattered in the wind
It’s going to take an eternity
To put me back together
I don’t think I’ll ever be complete
Just patch me up as best as you can
I’m not worth the effort
I don’t care anymore
What does it matter anyway?
Even though you’re gone
I used to look for love
Craved it more than anything
But now I’m so lost on my path
Fighting myself within
Where did I wander?
Falling to the abyss
Why were my choices so wrong?
What was so amiss?
What is wrong with me now?
Why does it fall apart?
Such pity and self doubt
Pumping through my heart
I just question everything I do
As if every decision was wrong
How can you still be with me?
Even though you’re gone?
Will you go?
Never good enough
Everyone screams
You’d think it was
A murder scene
No one listens
As hearts break
Realising all
Was a mistake
Told to go
Get your stuff
Get the fuck out
Had enough
Think about it
Before you leave
Upsidedown
Life upheaved
What do you want?
Do you even know?
Will you stay?
Will you go?
You’ll always have the status quo
Why do we always have to change?
Are we so imperfect we can’t refrain?
Driving our partners wild with every breath
Knowing it grates them is half the test
Never to decide if we stay or leave
All the shitty baggage we have to upheave
To start once again from nothing at all
As if in a video game looking at four walls
Driving a car thinking about a way out
Never to do it, just to cry and shout
You’ll always be a coward not to leave or jump
Backing away from a fight you always were the chump
Don’t worry, you’ll always have the status quo
Until one day you grow the balls get up and go
How to get out
I need to get away
From this abuse so bad
Taking its toll on me
Feeling so sad
.
He’s not violent with me
At least not physically
Although it’s still torture
The way he bullies
.
You just wouldn’t know
He’d never do it to your face
The mental abuse
I feel so disgraced
.
I wonder why he does it
Why he has to control
He enjoys his puppet
That he can mould
.
Whatever he wants
His every whim
I have to do it
Or else he is mean
.
It just never stops
Again and again
I wish it would
I feel such shame
.
How to get out
How to leave
I’m tired now
I just want peace
Dysfunctional romance
.
Cliché
Six inched heels
Middle aged mum
Enhanced
Beautiful
Lines
Student
Intelligence
Youthful vibrant
Love crushingly strong
Pull like cheese wire
Violently battering together
Never happen
Love fatal brutal openness
Not to be
To be simple
World’s cannot collide
Must subside
Snow in summer
Hail in fire
Impossible
No
They will be together
Not pulled apart by a million flames
This is love
Stronger than a million boars
They will make it
Entwined as threads
A perfect dysfunctional romance

Write her a poem
.
I fancy her
Impossible to talk
Every time she passes me
I just walk
.
She has amazing eyes
Small but so beautiful
I will write a poem
That’s what I’ll do
.
I write what my heart wants
Have someone give it to her
Everyone laughs at me
I’ve caused quite a stir
.
I’m so embarrassed
What have I done
My life is a million times worse
Hell has begun
.
The laughs, the sniggers
Everyone laughs
Oh I hate them
They’ll feel my wrath
.
It was really tough
I’ve learnt from my mistake
I put my words on paper
Put my love on a plate
.
I never spoke to this girl
Never once in my life
My failed love story
Now I take it in my stride

Girl in the rain
I see you there in the street
I can’t take my eyes off of you, just a peep
It’s pouring with rain five pm
You shake your umbrella again and again
You don’t see me, I’m invisible
Unnamed and in your eyes feeble
How do I get you to notice me?
Could our paths cross? Is it to be?
You light up a cigarette take down a breath
On your telephone, what you gonna do next?
You look at me, just a glance
I’m staring at you in a trance
A smile crosses your face is it for me?
I think yes, maybe it could be
I wave my hand just to say hi
You wave your hand too, It’s a lie
I decide to move to approach you
My feet don’t move stuck like glue
This guy pushes past me, knocks me down
I start to pick myself up, I turn around
She’s hugging him, that pushy guy
Just my luck, she’s not for me. Why!

Her
She don’t want me
Scruffy old me
I’m too skinny, no muscles
I watch as she flees
.
That other guy, he’s fitter
Look at his body, looks
I’m always reading comics
Or my head’s in a book
.
Not interesting, not at all
Like watching pain dry
Just plain old boring
I’m not gonna live a lie
.
She doesn’t notice my hair
My clothes as I try to impress
It seems just like
I’m trying to pass her test
.
I’m sure we like all the same things
Many common interests
If she could only know me
She wouldn’t care about the rest
.
Swallow my overwhelming fear
I’m approaching her, try to talk
I freeze solid in front of her
She smiles, my heart starts to stir
.
