Letting Go: Healing Alone Before Finding Someone Real

Iโ€™ve been in love
and Iโ€™ve lost it too
but I never expected
to ever love you
I gave you a lot
I gave you me
but it made me blind
too blind to see

that you were somebody
i was better off not to know
quickly we were so close
only to have you just as quickly go

away.

and that is how I want you to stay

away.

you donโ€™t appreciate what we had
so I would not want you to stay anyway

itโ€™s better this way
itโ€™s better this way

too much baggage
you carry
you canโ€™t put down
why would anyone really
want to stick around
when you canโ€™t
and you wonโ€™t and you donโ€™t
you jumped right back out
when youโ€™re not even close to being ready
or steady enough to be
where there is people looking for something and someone real
you only care about what you see
and how YOU feel
not how others feel
you need to take alone to heal
YOU
before
you try to find someone else
youโ€™re not ready for
when you arenโ€™t looking for something more
from someone else
but you lead them on
Iโ€™m happy you are gone
and
Iโ€™m happy to not be
anything with you
(nothing with you)
anymore

the end.








Iโ€™ve experienced the pain of love and loss, and I never anticipated feeling the way I did for you. I gave my all, but it blinded me to the truth. Sometimes, it’s better not to know someone, especially when they come into your life only to leave just as quickly. It’s okay for you to stay away, as I realize now that you never truly appreciated our relationship. It’s for the best. You carry too much baggage and aren’t ready for something real. Take time for yourself before leading others on. I’m content that you’re no longer part of my life. The end.

Goodbye wolfie

What you canโ€™t seem to understand
and never have understood

is that since the first day i met you
i always wanted you
i loved you
from the moment i saw you

We were just friends for a long time
and were close but had a falling out
and i didnโ€™t hear from you for 5 years
just like that
and it hurt like hell.
you had a girlfriend
and so i (even though it broke my heart)โ€ฆ moved on

then one day out of the blue
you came back
and i didnโ€™t treat you like a stranger
i wasnโ€™t angry or resentful

but now youโ€™re out of my life again
ignoring me like i mean nothing
like i meant nothing
and this is after we actually were in love

iโ€™m still in love
but
i canโ€™t do anything about what you do
iโ€™m not going to force you to talk to me
itโ€™s obvious you have found someone new who you
call your wife.
i am not your friend because you donโ€™t treat me like a friend
you havenโ€™t been there
you havenโ€™t even cared to see if Iโ€™m okay

so i let you go
and from now on
i will stay away
but forever this time.

we had something amazing
and you listened to a stupid bitch
who you and i barely knew
and now i donโ€™t even know you
anymore

But itโ€™s okay
i canโ€™t feel bad or sad
that you donโ€™t even care about me
the way i care about you
wellโ€ฆ caredโ€ฆ before now
i canโ€™t feel bad
about this anymore

iโ€™ve tried
iโ€™ve cried
iโ€™ve reached out
with no reply
and now i see
that you donโ€™t give a damn about me
AT ALL

and thatโ€™s okay
you want it this way
so
you got it
i release you from my heart and mind
forever.

i promise you that.

What gets lost

I can only care

As much as you care about me

But I’ll be gone

And I won’t ever come back

Appreciation

Iโ€™m sorry for all that I did to make you feel unloved

I loved (love) you more than anything

I really should have handled things differently

I think we both could have but

Iโ€™m not here to point fingers

All I want is for you

To be happy

Even if itโ€™s not with me.

For Wolfie (F.F.)

I loved you.
My love for you
was deeper and stronger than
you will ever know.
You rejected it.
You still reject it
and you will always reject it
because holding on to what is NOT true
is more important to you
than
holding on to me
and us.
You were my lover
and my friend
and you had so many chances to
make it right
make it better
be here
like you said you would
be my friend
and follow through with your words
but you never did
you never do
and now there is nothing that I can do
because
there is no more time.
the time you had
you wasted
you ignored
you spent punishing me
all the things you failed to see
will soon be gone
at least for me
you only punished yourself.

all the times I called you
– got no answer-
asked you to come over
and see me
one last time

I called your name
many times
and still you never came

once upon a time
you were my love…

now it’s my time to say goodbye…

so goodbye.

even though I am no longer important to you
even though you cared more about hating me
than loving me
I will forever (beyond this lifetime) love you
and
you will forever be important to me

I’ll see you again my friend
in the next life
when we come back as cats
(or me as a bird and you as a wolf)

Goodbye.

mother

I wish you could know
how my heart feels
I can’t tell you how to be
you only see what you want to see
and you don’t see me
I can’t tell you how I feel
you never cared to listen
you don’t want to hear
you don’t feel me
I came from you
but you were already a million miles away
I have no connection to you
I have no connection to the man who helped you make me too
you never wanted me
I always wanted and needed you
but I know now
you are no mother to me
so now I’ve got to set you free

goodbye

2 pianos and a cat

I sit here and look at a room filled with stuff
memories collecting dust
2 pianos covered with this and that
and on the couch asleep
is my siamese cat
I don’t know what to do
I don’t know what to say
when fear sets in
and gets in the way
frightened child
inside the 40 year old me
why must I always have to be
number 1
the best
the first
the only
given 100%
have all
or want nothing
I don’t know…

I sit here
and wait for my feelings to go
down a bit
level out
but I know
if I do
then I’ll do without
so I sit
in silence
Let myself feel

Letting go

Is the way to heal



Crow for dinner?

burnt my two fingers

Burnt

Two fingers

Dry lips

Make Papers stick

As fingers slide down

I ash all over myself

So not myself .

Or maybe this is really

Who I am.

God damn

Albatross

Knuckle under

Kneel over

Found myself down

Seems like a lot has

kicked me around

To the ground

Where I’ve already been

But now

The difference is

I don’t care

To speak up

To say how I feel

To any of you

Who fake being real

What good does it do

If people aren’t true

It doesn’t.

Another night locked up

In a bathroom

In a cell

In this self created hell

Alone

And not feeling so well

Alone

But Not feeling all that bad

Actually feeling somewhat glad

Water from the faucet

Water down the drain

I’m done with you

I’m done with pane (yes I spelled that right)

Want to start a fight

No thanks

The hour is getting late

Not worth the wait

Take one for the road

and I also took off

This heavy load

Without a voice

But that is by choice

My choice

Is now

To rejoice

In putting an end

to every useless fairweather friend

I didn’t want or ever need

I’ve already started planting new seeds

Of change

And I am happier right now

than I have ever been.

Time to allow

Only the best things in

Twisted Gold Ring

I miss that time

Before all this shit

Went to shit

You gave me a ring

It was simple

Yet pretty

And it meant the world to me

But you pissed me off

And I threw it out the window of my car

ran it over

It had a kink in it after that

And I loved it even more than before

You gave it back to me and I wish I never gave it back to you after that

I miss that time and

I miss that little gold ring

Cause it came from your heart

Which just like you,

I never see anymore

And probably won’t see ever again

With my little furry friend

I know that whatever comes after this

will be alright

Interrupted

Why?

If God exists then why would he/she want us to suffer?

It makes no sense

It’s cruel

And unfair

And I hate this so called God

Or whoever

Whatever

Is in charge

Of taking

Away

The things ( that aren’t just things)

I love

If there is a God…

Why would you do this?

You have completely destroyed my heart.
