STORM.

☹forty eight

love,

who knew it could be such a harmful word?

it's the one thing i wished you would direct towards me for so long,

and now it just hurt.

i pretended to be okay for you.

i woke up everyday for you.

i forced a smile for you.

i was here for you.

and all of a sudden every expectation and every little day dream of us completely just shattered.

there was no us,

and there never would be.

all those nights where i thought you were coming onto me,

where i thought you needed me,

you weren't.

you didn't.

you found a way to block out the rain by yourself,

but for me,

it wasn't that easy.

while you stayed safe and dry inside,

i stood outside,

drowning alone in the storm.
