Happy Mask, A poetry book
I thought that would last.

I thought that would last.

We both liked moths, and simply taking naps.

We both liked looking at the stars, and we both liked dogs.

And we liked the same classes, and we listened to the same songs.

But i suppose i wasn't good enough, and i suppose i never will be.

We could text each other for hours, and you would listen to what i had to say.

But i guess i wasn't good enough, and i guess i never will be.

So here's my apology letter, though i don't know what i did.

Was it how much i talked? Or how quiet i could be?

Was it my undecided personality? Or my loud, barking laugh?

You stole my heart like a goddamn thief, and crushed it flat.

I bore my mind to you, hoping you would except the cracks on it.

And for a short while, i thought you did.

For a month, not even a month, i hoped you loved me too.

We liked looking at the moon, and you stole my second, "I love you,"

You told me we could just stay friends, that you just needed a break,

you said we could get back together, that you would come back to me.

But this was all less than an hour ago.

My brain is telling me not to listen, that you won't come back, you've left forever.

My heart is saying you'll come back eventually, that you didn't lie to me,

My friends are telling me to walk away.

My heart is telling me to never leave,

My brain is screaming between the two.

Because you told me you'd be there.

And that you'd always love me.

I thought we would last,

I thought we had something,

And i'm happy.

I'm happy your taking care of yourself,

I'm glad your going to be happy.

I just wish i could've been there with you.
