a sad love poem

BrokenHearted

Sick and tired of all the fake laughs,
Sadness in my heart because i thought we would last.
Broken and hurt, the same you say to me.
Maybe if you hadn't stabbed me in the back, i'd be able to see.
You do not want to be with me, it's true.
But I'm brokenhearted because of you.

Stalk me eternally

Here as I sit 
I feel your eyes watching me
I turn my cheek and you're looking at me
Class ends as I watch you stand when I do
Racing me to the door 
you push, rush to get through 
Next class I won't see you
I'm sure you think of me too 
My boyfriend kisses my face 
Stalker kid watch me as I embrace 

Home I lay, enjoy my music
You're obsessed, your souls sick 
Drawing my name into your arm 
Open wound you're hurt inside 
Stalker kid, wish you could charm
Your dreams are a wild ride
Longing for me but can't you see
You and I could never be

A little something I came up with . Inspiration from a creepy kid. [: thank you creepy kid.

Lost My Mind

i used to spend my nights beside you
now i lay alone
i used to have options
but then i chose you
what happened?
we took things slow
dipped our feet in the water
before we jumped in
i thought i knew what i was doing
i thought i knew you.

don't take what’s not rightfully yours
you have my heart
and i think you stole it in the night
when it was just you, me, and the moon
the times i was most vulnerable
how could you.

i don’t understand
all those nights you walked in the rain
to come kiss me, hold my hand
i don’t think you did it to cause me pain
so why did you run away
you either want me or you don’t
and i think it’s rude of you
to hold on to my heart
that piece of me that’s still yours
why don’t you do me a favor
let it go

although i hate to say it
what’s mine is no longer yours
but the stars have fallen from the sky
and the tears have exploded from my eyes
you consumed my heart
you consumed my mind
they say destroy what destroys you
this should be war
yet i find myself reluctant
although you broke me
i could never hurt you.
i must have lost my mind

A LIGHT I LOST IN SHADOW"S FLIGHT

Shadows crawl,
Shadows hide,
Their looming sway,
Will not bide.
Here and there,
Everywhere,
A shadow lurks,
A shadow stares.
Look around,
Why so bound?
Why keep moving,
All unaware?
Dreams are dark,
Silence still,
My morrow is,
Until...until...
Wait for me,
Please don't flee,
No, not lonely,
Let me be...
Am I not
Grim existence?
A shadow's trip,
From hence to hence.
Will I know?
Will I find?
How shadow's skein,
Does unwind?
Amid all this,
You were light,
A light I lost,
In shadow's flight.

BEATEN BY FATE

When dreams are shattered,
And time looms ahead,
Like eternity stretched before the eyes...
Whenever you gaze...
Then, slowly, everything unfolds,
The stark uncertainties of everything,
And uncontrollable emotions become tears,
Creasing down the face like slow streams;
All that was just a while ago,
A pathway to a rosy future,
Seems blocked by fate's threatening spears.
You wanted her so badly and so much,
Yet you were not meant to be lucky as such,
And grief stuck you and stole away your cheers.
Weep not O poet, accept what has come,
And vanish somewhere for pain's freedom.
