the other side of bpd

(i really need feedback on this can you please all help?)

what if it was just a dare
and you never really meant to care
or maybe he can't kill the scare

just too many scars
it makes him unsee the stars

choosing hate over debate
or maybe it was just our fate

i keep thinking i locked the door
all we needed was just a spore

failure in finding anything to hate him for
always just burns my heart to the core

it's a war that has no end
retreating cause we always overspend

tired of saying sorry just to keep us sane
maybe i should've carried some wolfsbane

just need that smile for one last day
but you're too good at keeping your beast at bay

decided to become a lone wolf
when i wanted to start a pack

now i purposefully engulf
in everything i lack

after i bent too far and severely broke my back
you're like an ich i just can't reach

so i keep scratching till my scares get too deep
then i realize love is just a leach
it keeps latching till i just can't sleep

starry eyed you always stared
guess i'll never know if you ever cared

empty promises

(i really need feedback on this can you please all help?)

all the promises you made
just went down the drain

it always gets worse
i just need that white horse

that love creeping up on me
just like a ghost haunting me

do you remember?
the 2nd of september?

i do
why don't you

we were flying
or maybe we were lying

us in over our heads
putting it together with broken threads

we made our first pact
and then everything thing just got attacked

we knew it'll burn down eventually
but we were just too blind to see

Heavy Codependency

panic rises in my chest when i look desperate
desperate for four more minutes to be affectionate

drowning my clinginess in distractions
so no one suffocates
until the muffled desperation resuscitates

every delay
makes me feel like i've lost my way

every minute we spend apart
leaves me with an extremely yearning heart

maybe i'm too emotional
always one thought away from breaking down
is this feeling even rational?
honestly, i'm terrified of looking like a clown

don't get me wrong

it's not misery

the longing is just too strong

it exposes my dependency

you live in my heart rent free
just wait until we get married and then you'll see

i love you more i've won the argument
caught off guard no comeback?

sportsmanship please lose the resentment
i'm still reliving that one flashback

just take me back
to your head on my lap

take me back
to that possessive wrap
to that aggressive grasp

it's all too vivid in my head
husband, love of my life, best friend

they're all just titles
yet you found a way to become all at once
you're woven into all my vitals
in a lifetime this only happens once

i'm curtain it's you
i really hope it's me for you too

every lovers' battle

my heart constantly aches when you're not around
it feels like missing the other half i'd barely found

your presence regulates my nervous system
even though paranoia is just so surface hidden

terrified of waking up to find you gone
knowing it's impossible you're far too fond

i can feel it

not dramatic not intense
the distance becoming immense

bit by bit
don't forfeit

every call we skip
every time we slip

danger my brain signals
are we truly criminals?

persistently waiting for the right moment to just be us
compassionately and truly just us

stealing these glimmers of time as an appetizer
always managing to find the moment
you're a natural improvisor

i'm tired

tired of being exhausted when you're not around
sitting in a crowded room but still can't hear a single sound

tired of having to wait

wait for every part of the routine we create
the midnight calls we always compensate
the daylight nonsense we rarely hesitate

on my mind day and night
holding it together with all my might

you're severely entangled in my thoughts
i just keep envisioning our new plots

you're my forever and always
too in love to part ways

next to you
my body blindly sways

i have no control
together we construct a single soul
