it isn't worth it till your heart bleeds, is it? 

'Telepathetic'

I've been wondering how much longer I'd be able to stand for your lying and deceit and your utter selfishness.
You and I are so similar. Perhaps that's how we became so close in the first place. But it was the little ways we were different that forced us apart. And you are self absorbed and awful to the people around you. You treat the people who care about you as though they'll wait around for whatever shit you get them into, and they'll forgive you. You do what you want and don't care who you hurt, and I'm glad that you got hurt when you hurt me. I'm glad. I'm glad that I could make you feel as pathetic as you make everyone else feel.
And you are an awful, disgusting leech of a person. You are a liar and a fake, and i wish we weren't so alike, because I know exactly what's running through your head.
I love you. I love you so fucking much but god, you sicken me.
I'm glad.

Fuck you

I don't understand because you love everything that I have learned to hate about myself 
And I'm so terrified that one day
Someday soon
My childish hysterics will seem immature and annoying
And my constant calls will be suffocating
And my protests when you compliment me will be tiresome
And you will grow irritated at how I always ruin the mood
And you will be fed up of always biting your tongue 
And you will glance at the text I send you without realising that the words are meant for only you
and you will stop caring about the things hidden in the crinkles of my mouth
And you will dread receiving my phone calls 
And you will be annoyed at the way I use your arm as a piano
Or at the way I whisper your name to the stars
Or how I turn my face into your arm and kiss it
And a part of me wishes that you despised all my quirks so that I know that I have nothing left to lose. 
But you love me and you care for me and you expend so much on me and 
I have you
And I can't lose you.

Chlorine and inferiority

You're standing in front of the mirror
In your swimsuit
'Ugh I look terrible'
You cringe at the elastic nakedness
It pulls you into
You gather your hair into a bun
And watch as your forehead is revealed
And realise you have a rather knob shaped skull
And you pull the swimming cap over your head
'Wow....my head looks so disproportionate when compared to my body'
And you snap the goggles on with a sigh of relief
Because it covers most of your face 
And you can hide behind its lenses 
Hide your insecurities
And you step into the water
An aching sense of familiarity washing over you
Till you are drowning in its chlorinated depths
And as you watch the sun rays
Dance on the swimming pool ground
You know that here,
You are flawless
You are magnificent,
You are invincible 
Here, in the water,
You are beautiful.

For my bbz

There's a quiver in your voice over the phone 
And you tell me that she left again
That she was a miracle and you are a witness
Watching the blazes of a shooting star
Die out in the sky
But it's so strange, because you have always been
The one who is temporary
An hourglass, spilling away your moments 
Till you choke in your sleep;
Alone, alone, alone.
A time bomb, making your presence known
With every word, exploding,
Leaving what was your world in tatters 
And at least I'm addicted to a cheap substitute for love
While there's smoke in your lungs and ash in your blood
And always you try to shield me from the ache in the world
But you grew up a servant when you should have been an knight
And now you've got bloody wrists and a broken me
Telling you to
Go back to bed.

102

It scares me because he's all I've ever known. He destroyed me and I called it love.
And then there's you and you make me better you make me happy you save me a little more everyday
And it's so different to be taken care of.  
And gosh if before was love, my feelings for you are some rare explosion in the corner of the universe where stars collide and create new dimensions of epic proportions and a whole cosmos relies on us.
