everything changed

You were there,

all seven years. 

You followed me around,

like a little puppy dog. 

You'd ask me to the dances,

and say I was pretty. 

You'd compliment my every move, 

even though you were rejected. 

 

And then the holiday came, 

and I was alone. 

I had no where to go, 

no place I could call home. 

You were off with your friends, 

having the best of Christmases. 

And I was eating alone,

I felt so alone. 

 

I realized then, 

you were something I took for granted. 

I realized that 

you were someone that I wanted. 

And in the time you were gone, 

I grew an obsession. 

Just like the one, 

you had grown over me. 

 

And when the holiday was over, 

it hurt to see your face. 

I'd knew I had rejected you too many times,

to ever have a chance. 

And as the last year came to a close, 

I took a shot. 

And as the story goes, 

we both ended up obsessed, 

with a cat,

and a home, 

that I would call mine forever.

  • until the end

    right now we're together, 

    but soon we'll be split apart. 

    by the forces of evil, 

    by betrayers and people who stay. 

     

    it's been a long journey,

    of friendships and heartbreak,

  • white walls

    I stare at my ceiling,

    Blank, white, boring. 

    The rain is pouring, 

    Loud, hard, sad. 

     

    The paint is peeling, 

    Cracks upon cracks, 

    The rain is still pouring,
