Drowning

-

 You know that drowning feeling when you’re crying 

You’re gasping for air because the tears won’t stop coming 

You always wonder why it’s always you?

Does everyone struggle this much with life too?

Do we all feel like we are in this deep ocean

Just trying to stay afloat 

But every time you have a life preserve it seems to always be broke 

You get pulled under and come up to gasp for air

Sometimes you’re just hoping someone will be there 

You find someone with a boat and you feel like you are saved 

But eventually the ship will crash and leave you back astray 

Do you ever feel like you’re drowning

From all of the heart break

Sometimes I just float there and pretend that I am okay.

The Calls

-
  I need to stop giving do-overs   To people who treat me like left overs.  Am I even interested? Or is it just the attention that you give.  I desperately want to be seen. I want the romance and everything in between.  I see the potential in what we could be.  But you only call me when you’re feeling lonely. I am a placeholder for when you’re between girls.  I will never be your whole world.  Every time you call I think you’ve changed your mind.  And I just keep forgiving you time after time.  I need to stop giving into you whenever you call.  Because I know you don’t want me even a little bit, you don’t want me at all.

The pit

-
I wish I knew why I hurt so much.   It feels like everything is pouring out of me.  I struggle to get out of bed in the morning.  I’ve lost my hope and motivation. I feel myself sinking into this pit and I’m trying to claw myself out.  I start to climb out and I always slip and go back down.  It gets harder to breathe down here. It’s getting darker the more I slide down. Can anyone hear me screaming for help? I feel like my screams are silent.  I just keep searching for a hand to grab to help me out of this pit.  But I know I won’t find one.  There’s no one out there looking for me. Im sliding deeper and deeper down. Maybe one day I  will be  strong enough to climb out.

But a lot

-
  Crying over a man who never loved me.   How pathetic it feels to care so deeply, For a person who doesn’t even want me.  The way I put him first before me.  Will he even think about me once he’s moved to another state? All the times we went bar hopping.  All of our “non-dates”.  I hate how much I’m going to miss you.  The fact you probably will never give me a second thought.  I hate how you will never feel anything for me. When I’m crying about you because I care, not just a little bit, but a lot.
