I only realized that
You didn't really want me
When it was too late.
I reminded you of what
You couldn't have.
And I was oblivious.
I saw the pictures
And she looks
Just like me.
You only "loved" me
Because you imagined
That I was actually her.
The distance has saved you
Because you don't
Have to face me.
You don't have to
Experience my wrath
Or see how I hurt.
You don't have to
Do anything but
Pretend I don't exist.
All I wanted
Was your love,
Yet you used what I had.
You drained me of life;
The happiness I once had,
And I hope it was worth it.
I hope that having her
Is worth the price
Of losing me.
- unrequited love fucking sucks

Pleasure or Pain? (Poetry)
PuisiI call this my book of chaos; my sanctuary. When the turmoil inside of me resurfaces, when I've surpassed my tipping point, putting my jumbled thoughts and conflictions into words gives back the control I initially lost.
