fear your freedom...

i fear your freedom
thus, i must fear my own
you are a changing woman
i recognize you
and am trying to free you
of me

it is your freedom
that i love
i have not yet
learned to love
without holding on

chess...

yes, it is hurtful what happened.
but here is the thing, 
your narcissist doesn't feel they
have lost one thing.
they were never attached to you.
they aren't even processing this
in the way a normal person 
grieves a relationship.
by making these statements 
you are only giving them 
narcissistic supply.
they aren't taking it to heart.
they aren't going to wake up 
one day and think,
"wow, i lost such a good person!
what was i thinking?"
this will never happen.
you are putting yourself at their mercy
when you go to this place.
they don't care you're gone.
they didn't care that they had you.
all they are thinking about is
themselves and their cold,
calculated plans to dominate the world.
seriously. 
they are playing chess
and you were merely a pawn.

my demons...

my demons,
though quiet,
are never silenced.

calm as they may be,
they wait patiently
for a reason to wake,
take an overdue breath,
and crawl back to my ear.

lucky...

she doesn't say 'i love you'
like a normal person.

instead, she'll laugh,
shake her head, give you a little smile,
and say.......'you're an idiot'.

if she tells you you're an idiot,
you are a lucky man.

shattered...

i always thought it would be difficult
to find someone who will love me
when i'm always scattered
in a thousand pieces

it's like trying to complete a puzzle
when you don't even know if you have
all the right pieces

but then you showed me
that every piece
doesn't have to be in a place 
to create something beautiful

that love can exist
in the most
imperfect
lost 
and broken people

and i promise you
that love will be just
as beautiful,
if you're in a thousand pieces
or just one.

asleep...

you're asleep and i'm sad
i wanted to stay up all night 
and talk with you about
your day and why the sky is blue

everything is so easy with us,
our words flow back and forth steadily,
like the gliding of a ship
atop a calm sea

when i feel broken,
you mend me with your words
when i have nothing to say,
you effortlessly occupy the silence

you fill this gap inside me
in a way that makes me forget
i was ever incomplete

i'd tell you all of this,
but you're asleep.

no help for that...

there is a place in he heart that
will never be filled

a space

and even during the
best moments
and
the greatest 
times

we will know it

we will know it
more than 
ever

there is a place in the heart that
will never be filled

and 

we will wait
and
wait

in that
space

fragments&flashes...

maybe i will see us
through fragments and flashes
in places we were.

but although i don't know why
you changed your mind

i stopped needing an answer.

golden...

lying there,
in utter vulnerability,
she wipes her eyes.
she had not the slightest clue,
just how mighty
her tears could be,
and that no matter
the pain or the loneliness
or even the days when she
feels like merely
a punctured soul,
there was always
someone out there
thinking she was
golden.

give up...

Im not giving up until i hear or get something from u saying u r done. But if one day, ONE DAY, I just decided that I can't do this anymore, just please know that I've tried and done my very best. I gave everything just to fight for us. The stress, tears, fights, and sleep less nights, Im honestly, emotionally and physically drained. I may not look like it, bc i dont want ppl to worry. And there's never a day when I cant even stop thinking about you. And i hope u r doing the same on ur end.

closure...

closure.
we all seek it.
we seek the end of things and also the beginning of new things.
those things we can't find closure on.
they haunt us.
they pop up in our dreams, and creep into our thoughts in idle moments.
like a mind-bender that's beyond our mental capacity, a mystery that just won't be solved.

tell me...

tell me if you ever cared,
if a single thought
for me was spared.

tell me when you lie in bed,
do you think of something
i once said.

tell me if you hurt at all,
when someone says
my name with yours.

it may have been so long ago,
but i would give 
the world to know.

willing yourself to live...

...there is always one person you love who becomes that definition.
it usually happens retrospectively, but it happens eventually.
this is the person who unknowingly sets the template for what you you will always love about other people, even if some of these lovable qualities are self-destructive and unreasonable...
the person who defines your understanding of love is not inherently different than anyone else, and they're often just the person you happens to meet first time you really, really, want to love someone. but that person still wins.
they win, and you lose.
because for the rest of your life, they will control how you feel about everyone else.
