The One That Got Away

CATEGORY

romance

I know, I know

I’ve made some mistakes in the past.

And I know, I know

You live, you learn, and you grow

And I know, I know

Your past doesn’t define you.

And I know, I know

What you do in the future makes you.

I know, I know

When you look at me

You see, you see

All the fragmented pieces that puzzle you.

I try, I try

Piece by piece

Inch by inch

To let you piece me

This mystery, confined within this box.

With the picture displayed,

But the puzzle don’t fit together.

It’s not the same.

And I know, I know

You get frustrated

With all the puzzle pieces that make me.

But I know, I know

You tried, you tried

And you thought, you thought

You had me figured.

But only to see me crumble

With the slightest missteps you’ve made.

The same steps I’ve took,

You tried to follow.

But I couldn’t afford to give you the chance to build me

And for you to break me again.

So you cried, you cried

And so did I

And I know you died, you died

That part of you where love lived.

Sunshine and rainbows.

And you saw, you saw

Me for who I really am.

This silly girl,

Puzzled and put together by the world.

So you saw, you saw

All the mistakes that I’ve made

And you saw, you saw

That I haven’t learned, and I haven’t grown.

Not into the woman that you could be with for eternity.

And you saw, you saw

The pitfalls that are me

The cracks and crevasses that used to be flesh.

Now replaced by holes and darkness.

And that my past was bound to be my future

An ever ending cycle of deconstruct and reconstruct.

So the cycle, the cycle

You tried to avoid.

But I wouldn’t let you.

I had this void

Now is emptier without you.

But you see, you see.

I hope to learn and I hope to grow

So that I won’t make the same mistakes, I did with you.

The beginning

I used to laugh at happy endings. Knowing those wouldn't end with me. if they really existed, Fairy tales and in my dreams... I slept... In fantasyland Only imaging sleeping beauties, as i slept passed them. Imagination reigned supreme That such a superior being has ever been created. Only in fairy tales did I think you existed, Cinderella. The beautiful princess. no glass shoes and no happy endings Being witness to injustice and maltreatment. But still manage to be beautiful inside and out. When you slept next to witches that put you in trances, Wasting chances and time... progresses Always wanting, wishing, and waiting to be saved by magical kisses. Kissing toads in hopes on finding your... Happily ever after... Never changing. Chasing after rabbits down rabbit holes That made quick exits... Knowing you deserve more, Alice, in a wonderland. You lived in dreamland under a tree. Finally awoken, After you... I saw you... me. I knew my... your drea...

Broken Souls

Two broken souls colliding Emerging forcefully trying to not emerge where their souls should meet In fear that they will make each other whole and therefore complete. under each other spell they wish each other well Dumping all their hopes and dreams in a wishing well But never wasting it on each other As they run their own course of course Running never stopping to reach a conclusion so deep in thought under the illusion That the faster they go Leaves no time for I love yous or Discourses of mourning when they leave each other in the morning Early morning... booty calls But no gains as they crawl to their Courses of how to love Bugs them, the distant memories creeps on them Like roaches they lay eggs in their head Hatching thoughts of lonieness causing them to Merge again but never submerging under Their feelings of endorphins Because they both know that when it leaves Them it leaves them with themselves And they can't face the self hate They reguru...

Once Upon a Time

I wanna understand your feelings..

But my mind screaming ,

"No f**ks given"

I wanna listen to your heart.

The rhythm it beats

And I want to march in line to your beating heart

& connect with you once again

And Be the conductor of this two man band

However Im left without any legs to stand

& now im using both my hands

And on both of them stands two middle fingers standin straight at attention.

And did I forget to mention?

My.ears are turned off. too the. bull.s**t

You try to. breathe in to. existence...

My lips incoherent too love

My.eyes wont look you in the face

Because The truth runs away

And its soon replaced by another b**ch that stole her space.

Like motel 6 she left the lights on--Your lies shine bright

Brighter than the Attraction that begs me too stay...

Untitled

The nerve of you

you thought you had me fooled

With your Cruel intentions,

You evil genius you.

Poisoning my mind.

Apple of my eyes

Had me going blind to the sight of you.

Going deaf to the talks and thoughts of you

Going numb

My feelings couldn't feel nothing but for you.

The s**t I did for you

And the s**t you didn't for me

You couldn't see nothing through

But you could see your way to the other side

and hide your feelings in another's bush.

Rattling my cages

Gagin what you could get away with.

and away you went

To do your dirt

You got buried in.

Caught with the Shovel in hand

Digging on fresh land

Like my soil turned into sand.

And your love couldn't grow on this land.

So busy plannin and scheming

You couldn't see the dream in me

But preferred the nightmares that laid over...

Seperation

I wrote these words so that you could find me

For when I speak these words they will be forever intertwined in the atmosphere

So that we will be forever connected through time and space

6 degrees of separation

However my separation never separate

Like the master hands of time they always re align

Over time they may unwind, unravel

This journey of ours is not well traveled or even a mapped out plan

However here I am

I will forever stand the test of time

I will never hit that rock

Bottomless pit is where my love will grow though

So you can find me in the air you breathe

Let my words fill your world.

Let these words be your oxygen.

Have comfort in the strength of a well written thesis

Thank You

I love to love

But hate to be loved

Feelings of deserved nothings

Makes me question the existence of your feelings

As I try to sleep in your arms of peacefulness

Daydreaming of the horrors that used to define me

I am easily awaken and to my surprise you're still right beside me

I wonder, I often ponder why are you still behind my campaign

And how come you let your love reign down on me, over me, and between me

And it amazes me how

Your heart doesn't bleed over me but embraces me

And how over time I could find myself letting you love me with no objections and no oppositions

And how I can now march to the sound of your beat

Your heart beats slow

so that I can keep up with your tempo

Never demanding more than what I can handle.

I love you always seemed like a simple antidote to calm the airways

When enough a...
