Can you breathe as the world crashes in?
Every hope
every dream
being broken and shattered
into unfixable shards
as nothing feels right
and everything feels wrong.
Can you breathe?
I can't hold it till purple
cuz I'm already blue.
And it’s a little clique
but it just feels right
as the world crashes in
to break down and write.
Inspiration from a crack
that’s been pried open
now a bleeding wound
I don't want to stop.
Love was easy when we were kids
cuz no one cared who it was.
Boys love boys and
girls loved girls
because god said love everyone
and his was the word.
Now you can't love him
and he can't see her.
Because love evolves with age
and that’s how it was.
Is, in fact different
and so indirect
we can't just say we like them
because that’s just to lame.
Now a game of roll the dice
can I just have a revolver?
Russian roulette has more luck.
First you think you found someone
then you learn you’re wrong.
So you find the guy who's perfect
who fills that emptiness
you had for so damn long
but out of the wood work
comes all these guys.
The ones you stood no chance with
are now showing interest.
Can you breathe while the world crashes in?
I'd like to get off now
it’s not at all fair
no one said it would be
but I was always promised air.

Author notes
Its been a bad week. My guys getting obsesive, the roommates bro likes me which I've known and like but don't want to mess things up with the guy I'm engaged to. I think I've finally broken because i like them both and I want to try with the roommate bro which she's cool with but don't want to lose the friendship with the other if I try.
Please tell me what you think

Touching to the heart.
I am not going to lie but I believe in everything that is said here. This poem has touched me deeply and I love it! I understand how it feels because the same happened with me a long time ago when I liked someone and liked someone else too because they were both nice. No body wants to loose a friend because that is the worst thing anyone would want in their life.
I write poems about darkness because it is how I feel in my life when I am down, but this poem touched me a lot and I love it! Fantastic Job! You deserve the best for your work that you have done in this poem! -

Those years ago? Which one'd you end up choosing?
