I'm in love with my ex, it's time I've finally said it.
I felt as if pushing him away life would be simpler, it's not I must admit.
My mind lingers on his memory on the slowest of days.

Long forgotten in the pages of your life,
What we had was a love like all the others
The build up to the break down.
Conversations of us wed, and I️ your loving wife
The shadow of your hand lingers on my skin,
While tire tracks engrave upon the dirt.
The day you left was the day I changed,
The memory of you will never be the same.
I wish you could see the debt you owe,
I'm crying a whole ocean
Yet you won't swim out to me
The tide pulls in and out
My restless body like waves
Bending and reaching to feel you in my arms, again
Was it the same when you kissed him?
You're in love that I've heard?
Oh, does he know that you have scars,
That highlight the truth, imprisoned in bars?
Ah! Maybe the luckygirl have got her wild card.
SITTING ON THE WINDOW SILL,TRYING TEXTING YOU. THERE'S A LITTLE DRIZZLE OUT THERE REMINDING OF YOU
These wounds I have, they will turn to scars.
The ashes from the bridges have long been there.
I can still touch them and feel the memories.
How can someone do this to another?
Shuck-Lily cuts herself and, by God,
I'm back in love again,
This is not my responsibility,
So why am I tending to you like an animal?
they told me
don’t if youre gonna leave him
they told me
don’t if youre gonna break his heart
and yet
i decided yes
and i fell
Lingering, Lingering, Lingering,
Please let me be.
Wondering, Wondering, Wondering,
Do you still think of me?
If I could ask for one more dayThat I could be yoursI’d bask in moments, the love, the security.the purity in our intentionsBefore we refused to speak what was unintentionally mentionedThe lies you’d cry
Dear Ex-Significant Other,I refer to you as "ex-significant other" because I know you wish that I had said that instead of your name back when I ranted about you on social media.
a haiku for you
you are beautiful and kind
i'll always miss you
another haiku
everything is about me
but you deserve more
your hair is darker
it's much lighter in my head
i found someone to take your place
filled in that thought of "empty space"
he helped me find myslef after came and left
and came and left again
i guess my love was too strong
too strong there was no respect
Dear My First Love,
Second guessing my hope in us
Comes from the misguiding thoughts of others
Talk of wanting better for me
Goes through one ear and out of the other
But I know what is best for me
Dear Lost Love,
Flash back to this time last year
I watched you when you were live
That Colgate smile caught my eye
Like a whisper in my ear
The innocence in the grin
But it’s not perfect to all
As you embark on this journey of life
It is imperative that you know
I am with you
Although we're miles apart
In distance and in heart
Somehow, I will remain with you
Dear Ex Best Friend,
I stand upon the shore of roaring sea
Attempting to see all that I have lost.
I dream what might have been and still might be.
I was trying to be conscientious to not think about you,
But after closing myself off in a personal quarantine for so long,
I couldn’t help but start reminiscing about our relationship.
Even through my thick skin
When wits should fit, no quick send
Though I won’t miss your shit friends
That night, I met my wit’s end
Maybe my intent had its rest in
The tent I’ve pretended to pitch, in
i called.
as i listened to my phone ring-
going once, going twice-
it stopped; my heart did, too.
for a moment,
i thought you had answered.
but then, oh, but then, there goes the ringer,
We may have all gone through nights, when we couldn’t sleepThoughts about the ex just wouldn’t make us sleepWhy we thought about our ex even after we apart?Why I am so obsessed with my own past.....
Two plus two equals four stupid bitch
im tired of all your petty shit
you were my all
now watch my wings fall
ill stick up my middle finger
as I walk down the hall
so everyone can see
Am I your friend or am I your Man
Somedays I just don't know
I cry every day
Your the one I truly want
Why do I care so much about you
It's been seven years that we've been in this fight
It always comes back to you, you know. The center of it all, the center of me comes
Back to you
Dear Ex,
I’m not plastic. I’m real, but you didn’t want that.
You wanted something recycle and used over and over again.
You never wanted lovin, you wanted 5 minutes of a “good time”.
I miss you,And by you, I mean that feelingThat feeling that once consumed my whole existenceYou made me feel whole,And brought me kisses down my backHugs that were so good I didn’t want to let go
I hope you read between my words
Because I unfold stories with just my tongue.
I've created lilac skies inside empty minds,
And you have burned cities down to just ash.
#Because
We were young and naive
#I
Thought we could “love” each other
#Love?
Or obsessed with the idea
#You
funny how consistent you seem to be
in my mind as the sun starts to leave
behind a trail of the classic gold and pink
that you made symbolic of my loving
fleeting youth
so tell me the truth
Today you listened to that song
that I showed you 2 years ago on the couch as you fell asleep
in my arms slowly breathing as still as night
Goodnight Moon
you were the moon forever after that
You versus me
Is that what from now on will be?
I am here with her now
You there with him in that town
Last night I made her cum
You thought last night he could run
You put me on my knees and I sob to God
"Please"
This poem isn't any different than the ones before
It's about how I love you
Something I can never ignore
It's about how you love him, too
How could you
how could you love me
and then leave me
how could you tell me
we were forever
and then cut me off
like a sensless piece of string
hanging off of your beautiful body
You won't get married to him.
Not yet, at least.
I probably won't either, but that's only because you're both cheaters.
But for now, I'm glad I ruined your chance with him.
By the way, you're a terrible cook
You use to look at me the way you look at her,
and I use to love it,
Like I use to love you,
but now I just miss you.
It's was easier to stop loving you,
Than it is to stop missing you,
A joking matter but you took it seriously
You protected me as a knight to a princess
But you are no knight and i am no princess
Especially not yours
So why protect me when you have left me before
Time. Time was what I needed
To let butterflies escape
To let the memories fade
To let the thoughts of you to go away
But it brings
My anger towards you
My hate towards you
im done with you tonight
officially
you are now in my past
and i will no longer regret the time i wasted spent
remembering you
and hoping youd remember me too.
His fingertips brushing over her velvet skin
Flash through her mind as she catches his azure gaze
He lifts a corner of his luscious lips
Striking a chord of her heartstrings
I'm your rebound.
But I'm yours.
You come and get me
Whenever you don't score.
I don't know what happens
In this game when you score
Cuz you never do.
Here I am worrying about you
In this strange tangled mess I left us in, I found love. Or rather, I think I did.
I thought I loved you. I define Love as giving anything for the betterment of another human being.
The belief of who you were is as irrelevant as crayons to dog food,
I've been granted a garden
but I'm picking petals
off flowers you never gave me
to place on my face
so whenI see you at Walgreens
you won't be able to tell how red I'll be.
Love is a four letter word
& I've been worked into a novel.
There are whole libraries
of letters and bracelets and promise rings
broken in two
(1.Everything you've touched
Did you ever think about how lying is just another way of telling someone they’re not worth the truth?
Slurred words
Blurred lines
Raw emotion
And cold rhymes
Hot desire
Left to burn
It seems like an eternity ago that our flames burned as one
I cannot recall the memories I crave so badly that your heart etched in my memory
Your scent no longer lingers around me trying to entice me
I'm not sure what is worse
falling out of love
or realizing that there's nothing left
I wouldn't wish it on anyone,
no not even my worst
theres too much involved to
easily forget
He’s got the kind of name that sounds good no matter what you pair it with
He’s got the kind of fingertips that are maybe a little too soft
I know a girl
She is coming over later
We haven't seen each other for a long time.
We text
She liked me
Once upon a time.
She says she misses me
I say the same thing back
We were friends back, years ago
Back When She was a awkward nerd and my hair was nappy.
Now We're all grown up, reunited,
And All I want is to make her happy.
Can you see my love
Im right in front of you
Right here! right here!
Tell me you see my love
Show me you still care
Can you give me a sign other than playing with her hair
I have driven many miles with you in my passenger seat
Your blue eyes shimmering in the hot sunlight
My hand rests in yours
My eyes flicker to the edge of my pink rimmed Ray Bans,
to glance at the beautiful sight
1) I may be cheating by counting you. Romance doesn't mean much in
the seventh grade. We held hands once during a bus ride, your palms
were sweaty. I didn't mind.
I was tangled around the spider web you’ve
Been weaving throughout your life
Messing around always keeping me down
But then why did I want more?
You
You were not supposed to do that
You
I don't even have words of a poem for
you
because I don't know what to say.
Over a year come and gone,
long nights that turned into dawn.
Hanging on thin threads of hope,
that helped me cope
a devistating loss long ago.
Holding on to someone I used to know.
I'm terrified of falling but I’d fall for you . Heartaches , knee scrapes , & a couple tears too . I’d relive the very anguished reason my heart grew hard & stopped believing . I’d risk my all for a taste of your everything .
I sat next to him that one day
thinking he could one day be my friend.
From that day on we started talking, as one would say,
but it was a wonder what our eyes would send.
The first step can be the longest. When you want to forget someone. The first step can be challenging. When you feel as if you could never forget them. The first step can be the hardest. When you want to tell them everything. Let them now.
(poems go here)Things come and go,
We sit and stare out the window.
Thinking what we’ll miss,
And would it be different if we hadn’t kiss.
One day there, here, and the next gone,
Frigid,
and hard as stone.
Still,
and unbeating.
Can this heart
possibly
feel love?
I think not...
Arrogant,
and aloof.
You've changed?
You once loved me and called me everyday
Now you rarely say my name
You've changed?
It all started when distance was put between us
Seperated by only a few miles
I’m really good at some things.
Like, my memory. I can remember
events that took place, words said,
words that went unsaid, places
touched…places touched.
I’m not that good with names,
When she lays for bed it is you who runs through her head
Even though the two of you have been apart for so long she doesn’t know how not to hold on
Don't try to explain yourself
I know the truth
I never want to be by myself
never wanted to hurt you.
like the way an entire scarf can be
unrecognizable
if you pull the right strings
like the way a teapot
shatters
when you drop it
like the way a melody is
distorted
when you add an extra sharp
You only held me back. Clipped my wings so I couldn't fly.
Well look at me now. Soaring way up high and flying free.
You'll never again take that away from me.
You and I, we used to talk.
Now everything’s just wrong.
You know I tried you know I tried.
But I guess there is nothing I can do
to really convince you to stay,
the sun is going away,
Why?
Why now, after all this time?
Why did you call me tonight?
To dig that knife into my back just a little bit deeper?
To lead me down that dead-end road again?
I know you. I know how you work.
I want to move on to my next,
but for some reason i still have felings for my ex.
Even though she played me ,
i stil let her call me baby
Such sweetness was in her eyes,
But now her heart is made of ice.
I’ve given her scores of chances,
But at most they end up being glances.
I would have given her my life,
But her apathy cuts like a knife.
