My Home
You and I have
So much in common
We’re both just sad kids,
Rejected at home,
Who put our hope in the fact that
Putting the headphones in
Makes us feel less alone
I constantly think about you and
What to say to start a conversation because
It’s killing me
I just want to hear your voice,
For you to make me smile
One last time
Someone asked me where my home was and
I almost said your name because
Being in your arms made me feel more at home
Than anywhere else ever has
If I had known that time would be the last
I would have hugged you tighter
When it was 2am and
I couldn’t stop my tears
You texted me and made me smile
Without even knowing why
I’ll never get to thank you
For making me feel less alone in
That short while
I saw you today,
You said, “Hello”
And all I could do was wave
But inside I was screaming out,
I love you
Don’t leave me alone
I opened up to you
In the hopes that you would stay but
You still left me anyways
It’s like,
My brain knows that you’re gone
But my heart won’t accept the facts
I still look for your face
Whenever I walk into a crowded room
And on the day that we broke up
You told me not to cry
Because this was just a break
But when I tried to get back into you
My key didn’t work,
I think you’ve changed your locks
And now I’m sitting outside,
Just another pathetic girl crying
Locked outside the only place
She felt at home
