Untitled Poem 4-2-22

If you were here, I’d be crying on your shirt
I’m officially hurt. Everything hurts.
You hurt, this hurts, alone in your inbox,
That hurts.
I can’t keep telling you what I want
I’m repeating for nothing
You tell me you understand, and you get me
In actuality, everything I’ve said, means nothing.

They judged me for chasing you, when you were marinated with another
But we used to sync in breathing. You take a breath, and then I take another.
I look back on that. It keeps me asking.
It keeps me hopeful, not as confident and sort of confused.
Losing the best parts of me, you took them when you took you.
It keeps me asking, it keeps me waiting, for a response.
Tell me you’re still interested in me, send me a sign
I’m only going to pour my heart out, one more time…

You took the guns out of my hand.
You pulled me away from friends,
Who really weren’t my friend
Halfway soulmate and halfway bestfriend,
You became a perfect end
I need your perfection again.
I need your permission to be myself again
The pills stopped working again.

They judged me for chasing you, when you were marinated with another
But we used to sync in breathing. You take a breath, and then I take another.
I look back on that. It keeps me asking.
It keeps me hopeful, not as confident and sort of confused.
Losing the best parts of me, you took them when you took you.
It keeps me asking, it keeps me waiting, for a response.
Tell me you’re still interested in me, send me a sign
I’m only going to pour my heart out, one more time…
