Quotes by halfempty


I kind of want to scream
and I might want to cry
and I sort of want to yell
and I may want to die
and I know nothing's forever
but why'd you say goodbye?
r.m.

We shone like stars, and for months,
I thought that we were the bright ones that
Hung securely on a black tarp every night without fail.
But now I realize that we spent every single day
Shooting across the galaxy.
It felt the same as when the earth rotates.
It was a movement that my feet couldn't detect
Until we crashed, and when we landed
We broke the sun and
Shattered the moon and
Cut every string connecting the planets to the solar system
And now black holes dominate my universe rather than your eyes.
r.m.

You were my sun and my moon
and all (the stars) in my sky
but now when I look up
all I see (are) variations of
the same (sad) gray color
and I'm not sure how much longer
I'll be able to paint (without) reds or blues
Or the color of (you)r skin.
r.m.

I wore your plaid blue jacket and
spent a winter under your covers and
I watched the sound of music with you and
you sung build me up buttercup to me in the park and
you took me to public gardens and
you kissed me in the back of your parents car
so don't you dare act like you don't recognize my face.
r.m.
12 Things That Are Hard To Accept:
1. Flowers die in the winter.
2. No matter how many times I turn in my bed, my blanket wont transform into you.
3. The world is gong to end one day.
4. I said three words and you said 4 back, and just like that, 365 days spent stroking your skin could have never happened.
5. Scar killed Mufasa.
6. I’m sad because you left me, and you left me because I’m sad.
7. Dragonflies only live for two months.
8. You’re forcing me to forget you and I’ve never felt so cruelly punished in my entire life.
9. A mirror can never be perfect again once it cracks.
10. I never rattled your bones when I kissed your lips and your heart never changed it’s pace when my fingertips met your skin.
11. The most delicious foods are unhealthy.
12. You will never love me.
r.m.
10 Things I realized When You Left Me:
1. Some people believe there is life after death and I was never sure if I did until you left me and I continued to breathe.
2. I found myself searching for a new lover immediately so that I may be able to trick my heart into believing that you never existed. It was a desperate and unfair thing to do and now I’m feeling your absence more than ever.
3. “I love you” doesn’t mean what I thought it did.
4. You always made fun of me for savoring my food so much that I finished eating 10 minutes after you. I should have savored your laugh more than my macaroni and cheese.
5. You made giving hickeys a competition and you always won. You still win because even though my skin is clear to everybody else, I can see dark purple marks all over my body when I look in the mirror.
6. I need to remember my time with you so that I can fix all my mistakes when another boy walks into my life, if that ever happens.
7. You were my winter, spring, summer and autumn love and every single day of this upcoming year is going to be filled with overwhelming nostalgia of you pushing me on the swingset and tucking me into your bed.
8. I have hardwood floors and a blue bed-set that you bought for me and you have off-white carpet and a fuzzy green blanket that you like to use even though it gets too warm. You used to always discover strands of my hair in your bed or my stray bobby pins embedded in your rug. In the last couple days that we were together you re-did your room and every piece of me was flushed out and now I’m left with memories of you in my wooden floorboards and sheets that I can’t bring myself to wash.
9. Once, we bought a bag of pretzels and you didn’t believe me when I told you that I could bite them just right so that they formed a heart until I did it in front of you three times in a row. I tried to do it again yesterday but my teeth kept slipping and I cut my lips on sharp bits of salt and bread. Even my pretzel-hearts broke when you left.
10. I’ve seen people with your shape of fingernails, or the same broad shoulders as yours, but I don’t think I will ever find another somebody like you.
r.m.

I can see everything that I taught you
in the past 365 days
radiating through your actions,
and I can’t shake the thought
that soon you might stop
typing in the same style that I do
and you’ll stop using all of
the same phrases that I loved to use.
You’ll eventually start picking up
bits of other people until
I won’t even be able to
recognize you anymore.
Sure, your freckles will still
center around your nose,
and your arm hair will continue to grow
slightly darker than the blonde on your head,
but “dearie” and “silly” might
cease to escape your lips regularly and
maybe the next time you
snap to say hello will be the last.
I wonder how long it will take until you are
a completely different person
in an identical body.
r.m.

I’m afraid because I’m thinking about the time
that we made cupcakes together,
but that’s not the scary part.
In one month,
or in 893 days,
or in a year,
or in any amount of time in between,
I’m going to forget that we ever baked together.
And I won’t even notice that the thought of
one of my happiest days escaped.
Nearly every memory of when you loved me
is eventually going to slip out of my brain,
without my permission.
I promised you that I wouldn’t forget you,
But I don’t know if it’s avoidable anymore.
I’m terrified.
r.m.

Once we learned to trust each other,
You introduced me to your favorite band and
I introduced you to my best friend.
Now
We seem to have forgotten what trust means.
You two are taping memories of
each other in scrapbooks and
I’m blasting Hedley alone in my room.
I never expected to exchange
anything but smiles with you.
r.m.

Fall in love with someone
who wakes up one morning
and decides that they don’t love you anymore.
Lose yourself in the eyes of somebody
who will use them to look right past you.
Let your heart shatter, because if you don’t,
You’ll never know who to avoid.
You need devastation in order to overcome it.
If you never feel worthless,
you won’t understand what it means to love yourself.
If you never feel alone,
you won’t learn to appreciate company.
Surrendering your heart to the boy with icy eyes or
The girl with an evil smirk will leave you reduced to
nothing more than broken glass,
But I can guarantee you that in a 60 days, or 8 months, or 3 years,
Somebody will make a masterpiece out of your hearts’ shards and
Suddenly, you will be thankful for each time your knuckles broke
From holding the wrong person’s hand.
r.m.
