now vs then.

unhinged not that much has changed since then
to make the now
i'm feeling you in




but the things that attract
people to each other
are rather unspeakable
what made you finally reach out to me
and gather me in
now vs then
we grew apart in the distance
and i came back
not knowing how to talk to you anymore
just knowing
that i still wanted to be with you



we've tried to be upfront with each other
we've tried to be friends
you reached out to me finally
but all i know in this
now vs then
is that you broke my heart
and i still want the same end

my words can't come out right for you
what_you_meant_to_me
an unexpected awakening
that i wasn't ready for
a transitory feeling
i don't want to let_go




all i know is that
i can't love boys like you anymore

Freak Now
Sleep deprived, hungry, busy, can't go out, responsibility

Then
Could do what I wanted when I wanted and didn't have to worry about anyone but myself.

but
I wouldn't trade any of it for the world

unhinged it's easier for me now to talk to you about things; sometimes i veil them with some third person narrative because it seems less confrontational that way. i feel closer to you now because i know there's no hope of getting what i wanted out of you. i'm beginning to understand in my heart why we aren't together together. why we're just friends. but it's stupid of me to superimpose the present on the past. i knew the moment i met you we would never be together. it just took almost a year and a lot of negative emotions to convince my heart of that. i think part of my heart will always hurt to see you with someone else, but i also think that the biggest part of that hurt is that just like almost everyone else you would rather be my friend. that i'm good enough for friendship but somehow i'm not good enough for unconditional_love ; that i can't get back what others take away. it's easier now but that doesn't mean the hurt is gone. i've just learned to live with it. 051223

unhinged you broke my trust
severely
you finally completely cracked
my heart in two
your girlfriend freaked the fuck out
to find the two of us together
you moved in with her on the opposite side of town
we don't see much of each other anymore
and lately
i've been glad of that


i'm always too angry
after you're gone
