Having someone match your wit or your weirdness without hesitation is actually so fucking comforting and fun.

I bet it's easy for you
I saw you the day after
Laughing on your lawn
I can still see the smile on your face
I can still feel the tears on my face
I wish I could come back
Not even to see or to hold
Just to talk
I wish I could face you
In my nightmares you stand over me
Belittle me
Yet in day and in dreams there you are
Holding me, saying you love me
Telling me to come back
In my dreams, when I'm stronger
Stronger then when I'm awake
I pray you come back
That you let me come back
That you beg me to come back
You apologize, you come to me, you come back
I envision you, I envy you
But I know I can't have you, hold you
I can't be with you, you run, you hide, I cry
I never wanted this to end
I would've told you that
I remember the night, that night
I laid next to you
As I sobbed, as I held you, as I prayed
"Please lord, I'm sorry, I'm sorry for the things I've done."
"Please let him be with me, please let him love me."
"Please let me stand on the alter before you with this man."
"He's all I want please please please let him be my husband."
"You put him on a silver platter in front of me, please don't let me mess this up."
"He's all I want, he's all I want, he's all I need, he's all I need, he's all I need and want."
For the first time in a long time, I felt betrayed by God.
Not that I betrayed him, something I'm familiar with, but the other way around
I begged for a man to stand by me
Lord knows I'm never okay on my own
Yet he went away
You let him go away
But I can't
I need him

I bought a Sylvia Plath book
No matter what blinds I close the headlights show through
I hear my sink drip but when I wake it's dry
You told me you loved me then said goodbye
He brings other girls home
My best friends go to bed early
I stare at the booze on my counter
What am I
