 i found poetry i wrote about you back when we were dating

It's sweet, like a kid and a box of chocolates


Im pale

Paler than i was before

i think the sleepless nights are catching up to me


i think you're catching up to me


 i love you

i love you

i love you


i cannot love

i 've tried so many times

And ive cried so many times

About you

And Me


And i don't think i can feel

Not the way i used to

Not deeply in my soul


i can't feel


and i talk to a wall

When i'm with you

You've said

So many things

You don't mean


And things you mean

You've told me you don't


You know the truth

And you know i do too

Don't lie


'Cause actions speak louder than words

And your actions

Scream


To me


i was young

And i was stupid

And i don't know if you heard a word i said


Im still young

And still stupid

And you don't hear a word i say


And my lipstick stains

On your teeth

And my skin

On your sheets


it's hard to know you don't feel

The way i used to

(the way i do)


 i changed my hair

// you didn't notice


And it's fine

i tell myself

i don't care


Not about the way i feel

Or the way i felt


'Cause i'm young

And stupid

And someday

i won't feel

Anymore.



(The way you push yourself back

Into my life

Just to leave again

After two days


And the hole you leave

You don't care

So i patch it up again

Just for you to text me again.)


And i love your texts,

don't get me wrong

but you don't feel the way i do

and you've told me you could never feel the way i do


so i have to stop feeling

anything you do.



you always manage to say the wrong thing

and make me feel stupid

and bad

i still love you though

but fuck you

for that.
