With a single look,
You took my breath away
But it didn't work,
I'm still breathing

Nothing helps,
I want to die.
Maybe it's time for goodbye.

She's the best. She deserves better than this *******. So let her go.

Life doesn't work like that,
And I don't work like that.
She's my angel, that will never change.

It's a thing you never witnessed,
You're independent, it's all you knew.
After all, it's all you've seen,
Could we have worked? Always.

And if you ever decided you wanted it again,
I'll want it too.
In fact. I want you to.

I'm crying my eyes out,
And it's worse that I know why
But I don't have anyone to dry my eyes.

Everything today has shown me,
Everything I needed to see.

I didn't message the same,
I wanted YOU to ask why,
I wanted YOU to care.
You didn't.

I showed HIM how I felt,
I told HIM I was ready for death,
I just wanted HIM to answer.
He didn't.

I tried to be happy,
I watched my favourite things,
I ate my favourite food.
It didn't work.

Maybe I should end it,
Nothing ever works,
Not the way I want it to.
Jason Elliot May 2018
It's so easy for everyone else,
To just "move on"
So why can't I do the same.

Forever stuck on the same problem,
Always faithful to the same people,
It's too much.

Everything is too much,
Maybe you'll be able to "move on"
When I'm gone.
Jason Elliot May 2018
I'm hardly afloat,
All I can feel
And all I can touch,
Is the water.

But I'm starting to get a sinking feeling,
My wind leaves my lungs
As you tighten your grasp.

My heart is what's weighing me down,
An anchor tied to me,
To drag me to the watery depths.

As the sunlight fades,
And as darkness unsues,
I'm surrounded by a complete sea of blue.

What used to be my flotation device,
Is what drags me down.
Jason Elliot May 2018
I'll give you nothing but support,
I'll show you nothing but love.

I'll give you nothing but my all,
I'll show you nothing but devotion.

I'll take all of the bad,
And wait for all of the good.

Wait...

What happens if that's not enough.

Wait...

What happens if it's me.

Wait...

What happens if he's better.

Wait...

What happens if you change.

Wait...

What happens if you want a fresh start.

Stop. Don't over think.

Wait...

It's too late for that.
