To you

A sample of my poetry.

1

believe me, you're lying
yet you stood there, crying
claiming you love the boy misunderstood
but i don't fucking understand how you could.

i'm the one everyone knows is no good.
so believe me, you're lying
when you say that's the truth.
and don't grieve me, because i'm trying
to leave like i always do.
it's more difficult on me than it is for you.
for the last time, darling;
believe me, you're lying
because you feel like you should

i'll relieve you of crying
this act, i'm not buying
you can't possibly love me and my fucked-up childhood.

no, not when nobody else would

he said
"i want to be inside your mind,
not your body"
his words were kind
and his actions spoke otherwise
yet, i was blind
to the soulful boy with beautiful eyes
and the pretty words he spewed
that led to my demise.

i'm unlovable, they say
you'll always leave - so stay away
my heart's untouchable; it's hers
the girl i see every day
and i wonder if she feels the same way

but i'm unlovable, you see.
HOW could she ever love me?
she's kind, she's pretty
a constant on my mind
the girl who makes living, less shitty.
maybe she's the one i was always meant to find.
i'm unlovable, they say
but not to that girl that stays.

write a message
on my skin
in the wreckage
of our sin
i'm the conquest
that you win
at simply a request
that i let you in.
