Plastic Cups

"Is there anyway of us moving forward? I have the urge to cheat daily, thats the truth and I don't know why"

Why? Why would I ever want to move forward with someone who manipulates me? Why would I want to move forward with someone who doesn't respect me? Why would I want to move forward with someone who when I tell them my insecurities and confide in them, they do the exact things I have nightmares about?

You said the things that ripped me open. You put me on display. You made me feel like I was just a plastic cup. You need it for a moment but as soon as that water is gone, you throw me aside and you will pick up another cup when you are thirsty again.

My stomach is empty. Its so empty. And my chest is full. Full of heavy rocks.

I'm not ready to be showered with positive attention. I was used to being sad. It felt normal to be treated like an afterthought.  So when someone comes around and doesn't make me sad, who doesn't make me feel like an a...

3AM Wednesday Mornings

     He picked me up at 2am. I was fighting an anxiety attack right before he picked me up. I pushed it down as best as I could. I wasn't going to let my anxiety ruin a possible good night. The drive to the beach was quiet, with small talk occasionally filling the air. We eventually reached our destination.       It was 50 degrees but with the beach breeze it was probably closer to 40. The sky was clear and the breeze nipped at my cheeks. We gazed at the stars and talked about if aliens actually did exist. We swapped stories about all sorts of things in our lives. And we were so very cold but we didn't really mind since we were just enjoying each other company.  We both laid on our sides looking at each other for a few moments until I complained about how cold the ground was. I sat up and he laid on his back and pulled me down so I was laying on him. He was warm. He said I could put my hands in his hoodie pocket but I ended up putting them under h...
