My Poems

• Roses in my lungs •

You. You were also a student in my school, just like me. I saw you walking by every day.

Every day that went by was a day i fell in love even more

You and I started talking at some point and became friends, like flowers that grow closer to eachother

You smiled at me and roses bloomed inside of me.

I've never felt so happy before. The roses inside me kept growing just like my love for you.

I loved you more than anything. You were my world, but i knew that if you knew i loved you, our friendship would be over.

One day we were talking about Valentines day. I asked: "And found a Valentine yet?"
You said: "Not yet, but i want to ask someone."
I wanted to know who it was. I hoped it was me, but I was wrong.

The next day i waited for you in the hallway. You never came. I texted you and asked "Hey, are you sick?" You never answered.

I was scared something happened to you, but then at lunch I saw you. You were sitting at a table with another girl. You held hands with her.

You didn't talk to me for weeks, maybe even months. I grew flowers in my lungs every day we were together. But now, the thorns are splintering my chest.
