Agonizing indecision

Just how much courage does it take?                                                                                  
To stick to the plan that I’d made                                                                      
And why should I be afraid?
                                                                                                                                               
To live my own destined fate                                                                            
When all I could do is hate                                                                                
All the things that I have said
                                                                                                                                                
Can’t I just stay in the bed?
With no sorrows and no regret                                                                     
But the image of it in my head                                                                 
Keeps on replaying until the end

Hypocrite

You said you hated liars
But you’ve always lied to me
You despised being deceived and used
How ironic, you’ve done worse
                                                                                                                                    Telling me I could open up to you
Then twisting my words against me
Giving me all the hard work
And taking all the credit as the “leader”
                                                                                                                                     Now, that your truth is crystal clear
I won’t stay silent, not this time.

'People Pleaser'

Every day when I wake up in the morning
I promise myself that today will be different and I’ll change
So that I’ll be able to finally sleep without my head hurting
From replaying these lucid agonizing moments relentlessly

When all I could do is please, support and trust people
While they are constantly stepping on me to move forward
And I just can’t say no to them, it took me a while to realize
That when you let people take advantage of you, they’ll never stop
                                                                                                                
I’m always deceived by the typical two-faced people 
Prioritizing their feelings and their impression about me
While neglecting myself, feeling bad and the urge to be kinder 
But at the end of the day, I’m the one who keeps losing to people who didn’t even try.

'Plan B'

And I wondered how can it be felt that effortlessly                                                                                                                                      The feeling of not being left out, when that one leaves                                                                                                                                               Only then you remember my existence and that I’m here                                                                                                                                            Seasons went by and you’ve travelled the world with that one in mind                                                                                                                                            Yet I’m still stuck here waiting for you but you never came
                                                                                                                                                It wasn’t about being busy as you said, I just wasn’t the priority                                                                                                                                           That feeling of uneasiness in my chest that I get when                                                                                                                                            I realize I didn’t mean as much as you did for me                                                                                                                                           When I’m included only when others aren’t available
                                                                                                                                                 It feels like there’s a void in my heart surrounded by endless solitude                                                                                                                                           But can it be filled when I’m no longer the backup friend, your “Plan B”?....

Ignorance

I hate how it always ends up like that.
How I get ignored for several hours.
And reply within a few seconds.
To think that you didn’t care as much as I do.
Engraves a sense of solitude in my heart.
I can’t call myself anything but a fool.
To hopelessly stare blankly at a screen.
How can I have these emotions, however?
Every day I greet you like it’s never the last time.
Reminiscing, overthinking but never hating you.
Ever wondered if you noticed those emotions………………? (will you ever do?)

Solace

Never have I ever imagined such a warm feeling                                                                                                                                               That day, when all my hope seemed to crumble                                                                                                                                            You felt my frustration and sorrows without me trying                                                                                                                                             And you were there to console me, to give me a hug 
                                                                                                                                                 Suddenly I felt warm tears on my cheeks that I couldn’t hold back                                                                                                                                            But I don’t think that I can call that feeling sadness                                                                                                                                        Not when I felt your presence next to me                                                                                                                                      And not when you were braiding my hair gently                                                                                                                                      I think that I was reassured and I felt…………………Solace?

Not Enough

It’s alright  
                                                                                                                 You  can ghost her for many hours                                                                                                                         And she’ll still reply within seconds
                                                                                                                                                                           It’s  alright

Too Much

It’s not alright
                                                                                                                                                      I waited for many hours all the time                                                                                                                                        And I am the one who is dry and changed?
