Ode To Heartbreak

Ode to heartbreak
Because sometimes
It’s the only feeling left
Amongst
the lack 
of feeling
To remind me
I’m still 
Alive

Inhale

When I inhale,
I still feel 
a rush

I smell
The feeling:
It was more 
than a crush

The touch
Was fleeting,

So why do I 
Still want you 
so much?

Your heart beating
I once smelled this smell 
on you
But now,
that isn’t true

Just an 
old 
discarded 
sweatshirt,

as 
forgotten 
as me 
and you.

Blue Car

I keep waiting
To see 
Your blue car
In front of my house
I keep looking out the front door
Even though it’s stupid
Because you won’t be back
No more
Sometimes I close my eyes
And imagine it is there
Even though it’s pathetic
Because I know that you
No longer care

Rome

Rome
Was my home
Until Rome evicted me
But all my roads still lead to him
Trains of thought
All follow tracks 
That always seem to take me back
To my one time baby- boy
Who for a moment brought me joy
Buildings and walls they could destroy
And I’d still find my way back 
I’d still find my way back
Find my way back
All the way back
Way back
To Rome.

Missing You

I miss the warmth 
Of your embrace
I miss that very blissful place
Your presence took me to
I miss when there was a 
“me-and-you”
I miss it when you were kind
Why’d you have to 
change your mind?
Now there’s nothing left to do
Then spend my days 
missing you

Abandonment

I fear you’re going to leave me
At every turn we take
I fester up the delusion
That from our bond you’ll break
I’m living in a nightmare
No, I’m not awake
Because 
since I fear abandonment 
Everything’s at stake

Apprehensive

I'm anxious about the future
I'm caught up in the past
I'm fearful towards those 
petty things
I thought would never last
You never see what's meant to be
You never can detach
What's darkest and most beautiful
Is the shadow that it casts

Betrayal

“Betrayal”
Doesn’t half 
describe it

You didn’t have to
Go 
and hide it

But you did it 
Anyway

You 
sure 
have
A lot to say

But I 
Hide
My words 
away

Because expressing 
How 
I feel
To you
Would only 
get
In 
my 
way

I tell you 
I don’t 
know
How I feel
Because this is all
Way too 
real

You act like 
it’s not 
A big deal
That you are now
My best friend’s 
steal

When I remind you
How we 
were once 
a thing
You deny it,
and
It
Leaves 
a sting

You’re not living 
In 
reality

It’s 
So 
much 
easier
for
you 
Not 
to see

How you could
Be hurting 
Me...

“Betrayal”
doesn’t
Half
Describe it.

Haunt You

I want to haunt you
Like a ghost 
Because you were the one
I liked the most
You took me in each loving arm
And when you left
Did the 
Most harm

22

I don’t wanna turn 22
Without you
Heart throbbing with pain
Without you
Aches in my brain, just
Thinking
About you
But I don’t have much choice,
I have to
