I miss you
The way you would always had a stupid grin on your face and a dash of sarcasm in your voice
Sometimes I wish the sea of your dreams never evaporated into this puddle of forgotten aspirations
I wish you could've stayed forever and stayed you
I hate you
The way you look at me every day, love scratched out with the worst hate and judgement
You tell me everything's alright and then tear my hopes away as soon as the sun sinks
I think of all the skipped meals I've endured and the gnawing ache you've left inside me
I envy you
The way you can toss everything aside and cash it in for something cheap
The thoughts inside always made sense without a doubt no matter how many scratches I see on you the next morning
Apathy infests your soul
You make my life hell on earth and you screw me up whenever you find the chance
I can't sleep
I don't eat
My tear ducts tire and wither in a waterless drowning
Out of everything, the hardest part
Is seeing you every time I look in the mirror.
