He lived
But not long enough
And the world only remembers his death
He still could’ve lived to this day, he would’ve been about 83(?)
I am a flower
And you are my sunshine
And I know you didn’t mean too
I know you only wanted the best
But still
You burnt me
Me
I am so much
I am too much
Too much everything
Clingy
Intense
Quiet
Loud
And I’m simultaneously somehow
Still not enough
Even though I just had a good time with a friend, I still feel like ****. I don’t understand why I’m like this. I hate myself.
I miss when you were kinder to me
Maybe you never were
Or maybe
Maybe
Maybe
Im just too soft
And this world is much too cruel to us
...
But that’s okay because you still smell of dead roses
"Id die for my family"
however, unlike you, they dont want you to die
your son wants you to quit smoking
and your partner wants you to stop hurting yourself
your young daughter wants you to hug her
and your mom wants you to quit your bad habits
You're willing to die for them
But would you change for them?
Say that my eyes make the stars look dark
That the sunset envies my beauty
And that the morning bird sing for us
So that I can say
That you smell better than a rainy day
And your heart makes the sun seem cold
I NEED TO LOVE SOMEONE DUDE, I NEED A BF AGHHH
That their words make me smile
That their comments made the world seem better
That thinking of them lightened up my day
To all the cool poets on this site
Silence

Silence a slice of life
A calm before storm

Silence a heart in strife
A gentle healing balm

Silence a slicing knife
Just a painful calm

Pavin
my heart is a landing pad
breathe in

breathe out
let go
breathe in
catch
breathe out
let go
breathe in
breathe in
breathe in
i cant catch

I'm dizzy
I'm dying
I'm craving
I need
I want it
can't have it
help me please
I'm sick
I'm smoke
I need i can't have
I'm breathing
I'm better
I'm lying
I'm dying
I can't see
anything but
I need
