I’m happy now
So happy I could cry
Or laugh
Smiling alone at my room
Seeing everything in pink
You know
With those rose tinted glasses.
I’m delighted
Relieved.
Should stay that way.
But there is something
When I close my eyes
You still haunt me.
I really should not think about it
There is someone special who makes me happy
So what do you want from me?
Why can’t you leave me the way you did in April?
That went totally easily
Not for me
For you especially.
I won’t beg you to go away
But keep in mind
What you left is pain.
When I stargaze you pop up in my mind
Again after every damage
I wish I could erase you
I don’t need you
Neither do you
All in all
Just let me be
Don’t come up in my dreams
Leave my memories clean
Push yourself away.
And finally
Let me live.
Excited for what?
Disappointment
Or love?
Not if it was real…
More like a thrill.
This is all so fake
Like the thought
Of living in peace
But still
I hope for something
That will never be clear.
Isn’t it obvious?
Aren’t you self-conscious?
Drowning in idealism
But need more realism.
Although we weren’t meant to be
Not yet, not this time
You were the one that saved me
From taking my own life.
That moment seemed lively
Under the stars and the moon
I felt relieved finally,
But it ended too soon.
And now I’m here
Months have passed
And it still feels real
Even though you left.
I’m not sad
I accepted it
Everything is set
Afterall, we’re kids.
But what have you done?
I changed that day
The feeling isn’t gone
It just fade.
Why am I thinking of you?
We’re on different paths
What we had is now blue
And that part of my soul is black.
Whatever happens
You come up in my mind.
It quickly flattens
Stays far behind.
Staring at the stars
Rewinding our foolish stories
Was it all false?
It only exists in movies.
When I felt like dying
You gave me that smile
Hugged me while crying
Knowing it takes time.
You listened with honesty
While I shared all that garbage
You didn’t think less of me
Unlocked my heart’s cage.
Then you made me tear up
It burned my cheeks
It could even fill a cup.
I was unable to speak.
You were committed
To another heart
I wasn’t uplifted
How I was before those scars.
It’s not fair
How you made me feel alive
Outside in the cold air
Now I’m completely deprived.
Saved me once
Hurt me forever
Like a dunce
Who’s not my lover
All I want
Is you in many ways
Firstly, to be gone
Secondly, to stay.
You were my last hope
And now there’s no way to cope.
I’m getting too low,
don’t want to take more.
This makes no sense,
As we’re just friends,
I might need new lens
as I don’t see through this mess.
That one hit hard tho
“do we share the same moon?~”
