The truth is I dont just miss you I miss the person I am with you I am different when you are here I am different when you arent Its not about being together Or happily ever afters Its about waking up and knowing You are in my corner There were a lot of truths in those last words Tossing out that box of old hurts and regrets was necessary. The problem is, there were other boxes A friendship and trust that had developed A bond that we didn't resurrect..but that we created and protected from everyone but ourselves You are bigger than the puzzle piece That fell out when you left I am more than the sum of my parts But Im not the answer I've b

I can only say I don't

If you are reading this I understand I know you think that I am hurt And I can't move on I know that I have to Let you go I lost myself In your beautiful chaos And I tore out my own heart To save your soul If you think that I hate you I can only say I don't If you think that i hate you To save your soul I tore out my own heart And In your beautiful chaos I lost myself Let you go I know that I have to I cant move on And I am hurt I kno

Still by maskedinsight, literature

Literature

Still

You could always see me in the dark. Maneuvering my craggy edges of tenacity, tossing matches at gasoline pools filled with hope. I loved to watch you dance by the fire you lit in my eyes. Nothing was as important to me as hearing the love in your voice and the way you held my hand in the rain. I'd sell my soul to have you back but you tied it up in your loose ends and threw it at the mirror when you saw your reflection. Now I lie here surrounded by the shattered pieces of the only thing I've ever believed in and still there isn't one piece of me that doesn't miss you. gw

you build your walls with old skeletons and mortar an impenetrable fortress with well guarded borders you ripped pages from the manual pulled the pin from the grenade praised me for loving you punished me when i stayed my road map is torn compass pointing to you how was i to know you were lost too id reach to save you but we would just drown pulling me under in panic of finally being found call me a coward for flinching when your daggers are thrown then add my tears to the mortar being prepared for my bones

Bus Ticket by maskedinsight, literature

Bus Ticket

Oh...you see a problem? Let me introduce you.. We are longtime friends You are worried why my doors are shut when its our walls that are falling down. How can I be here for you... when you left me at the altar to carry our luggage while you danced down the aisle with a blue ribbon. My visions of being carried across the threshold didnt involve me having to build it while you pumped your iron fists to yesterdays dreams and bounced checks. Im sorry your life left you behind and your bus ticket said 2:30 and its just 2:33. I know you feel that it isnt fair that your dreams were served cold and stale on a tarnished platter.. But my shift

Dont Say I Love You by maskedinsight, literature

Literature

Dont Say I Love You

Dont say I love you I love you feels like handing a newborn to someone with weak hands and no caution, Dont drop it. Dont say I love you I love you feels like a tornado of expectations and duties, sucking the air from my lungs and the wind from my sails... I need to breathe. Dont say I love you I love you feels like a bull in the china shop writing notes in red ink- You break it, you buy it! What is my value today? Dont say I love you I love you feels like handing someone a candle burning in the wind after you used your last match to light it My matchbox has worn smooth Dont say I love you I love you feels like glasses on a

Literature

rant

maybe that's the problem, that when it all comes down to it we're a bunch of selfish motherfuckers— the lot of us, that maybe we'll be a little better off with fresh flowers on the kitchen table, raspberry jam for breakfast, cellophane sunsets & tangerine skies, holding hands for too long, sharing yourself with a stranger until you no longer regard them as such, waking up the next day and not being too afraid of ourselves to let it happen again; spending all our money on appleseeds, planting them and taking a nap until spring, watching as the earth sucks the snow from t

But it feels real to me by squibblyquill, literature

Literature

But it feels real to me

It's not the truth of love. It feels like love's truth. But it leaves you empty, Drained, alone. You can't explain. It feels like love, Your soul shakes with it. But I tell you it isn't love, Not true loving, at least. It feels like truth, Because it reflects The truth you experienced When you were soft, new, And incapable of imagining anything else. Now you feel the helplessness again, It reaches down inside, Reminding you you're alive, Baring ancient wounds. Of course it feels like truth to you, It's all you knew, all you've had a chance to know. But know, there's something else afoot in the universe. Pain and abandonment are not the only r

Self-Formation by squibblyquill, literature

Literature

Self-Formation

The universe didn't roll you into a ball. You rolled you into a ball. Who taught you to wrap yourself in riddles? Who told you your destiny was the unraveling That never comes, because you are too clever And tightly wound, bound against intrusion Yet desperate for communion? Back in the furnace where souls are made, The face of love scratches its head, Smiling sheepishly, embarrassed To have contributed to the misunderstanding. Do not underestimate the power you wield over yourself. What sort of monarch rules your heart? Truly it matters whether you are a tyrant to yourself Or a wise and judicious guide. Do you not know that if you decid

My Bio

my profile pic is an amazing photo by photographer christon anderson capturing a moment after hurricane michael. my writing can mislead people to think i am extremely sad or depressed. Im actually a pretty strong soul who is proud of the shit she has been through. writing is the most effective way for me to process things that are on my mind. the subjects in my writings includes past loves, friends, patients, and even the man who tried to take my life. i dont follow any form, i just write what comes out. thank you for the messages. it means a lot to me for someone to say.. hey i get that..or ive felt that.....or just i understand. thank you DA.
