It Was My Fault Too

If I hadn’t let you in so early 
& if I had taken shit slowly 
And did not quickly put you as the center of my world 
then I wouldn’t be so disappointed in you & myself
See it’s my fault too. 
I automatically gave you my heart 
wanted to forget the tears, fears, scars & pain from my past.
I automatically gave you my trust knowing what I’ve been through.
Instead of proceeding with caution. 
zoomed in.
Vulnerable, eager to just love someone new & eager to be happy with someone else 
Forget my past 
Forget what I have been through 
I just wanted to love
& be in love
All because I wasn’t happy with myself 
So, it’s not all your fault that you hurt me
It’s not all your fault that you broke me 
& it’s not all your fault that I cried myself to sleep last night from the pain 
It’s my fault too

Don't Tell Me

Don’t tell me what they didn’t do Let me figure it out when I see your face when I do something you haven’t experienced  Don’t tell me how they hurt you  Tell me how you’ve never been this happy before  Let’s never backtrack  Because that’s brings fear we don’t need  Tell me you’re scared  But tell me that when we are watching a scary movie Don’t tell me you need me Show me when you call because you couldn’t figure out the remote to the tv Let me hold you When reality sets in & you’re overwhelmed with work & what to buy for Christmas  Be angry with me  For not listening & buying the other dress  Lose trust in me  Only when it comes to leaving your food around me Leave your past in the past  & only allow yourself to think about it when admitting we’ve came a long way & still are going & growing

DEAD

The feeling of being heartbroken got the best of her  She let it all out She cried  She's in pain  She held one hand on her stomach and one on her throat  What hurts more is knowing that she can control what goes on & she can stop it if she wanted to  But not having the strength to stop the pain  It’s like crying over and over again until you don't even have the voice to cry or the tears anymore  Everything ran dry She had a scattered cry  The ones where you stop for several seconds because you forced yourself to daydream away from reality but somehow get snatched back & cry harder because you can’t seem to get away She was alone  In a house full of people she was alone  She got the energy to go to the bathroom She refused to look at herself in the mirror  Even though it was hours that she had been crying  She still refused to believe she was weak enough to let it break her She tu...

What?... You didn't know?

She's dismissive  She's open  She's a pessimist    She's an opportunist  She's giving  She's selfish It's weird how in the beginning it was easy to figure her out  How when it was hot and heavy she was this perfect girl She was the one who was so calm, happy, and supportive At times you notice when she was out of it But addressing it seemed stupid because she snapped right back  How come now she's different? The snap backs took longer to come in effect  The smile that made you fall in love seemed to barely show now What is going on with her? Instead of only getting to know what made her happy you should've wondered what harmed her Yes it is understandable that the past has nothing to do with you and she may have seemed to have it all figured out and show she's fine... but she's human.. What?... You didn't know?... She decided to make it look like she's okay all this ...
