Whatever, Nevermind

Whatever, Nevermind

By: Tyler Ross

I am important too

and

deserve to be treated as

so

you think I'm gonna stop

mentioning it?

Not until actions

scream louder than

words

and I am

more than just words

I am more.

Pre - V - Day

I love
I loved harder today.
I tried to be more patient.
I felt I did a pretty good job.
I was frustrated.
I waited.
I waited.
I waited.
Fuck!
Forgotten.
Missed.
Missing.
Why am I so easily forgotten?
Cranky now.
Wanted to write bad thoughts.
Didn't.
Not smart.
Doesn't help me.
I made something.
I sent it.
Maybe you smiled immediately...
Maybe it went to waste.
I imagined happiness.
Nice words came.
A little cranky.
Upset.
Leftout.
Forgotten.
I love.
I still love.
I don't like giving up.
If only you knew.
In love.
Its 2am.
Music plays.
I write.
I'll go to bed.
Fuck.
Its Valentine's Day.
Who cares, right?
I kind of care.
I'm romantic no matter the day.
I should really go to bed.
That's healthy.
Maybe soon you'll see.
I am great.
Greater than the average C.
I want you to remember me.

Tired & Awake

Tired & Awake

By: Tyler Ross

Replacement,

abandoned from an early age,

you selectively gave, but took a lot.

I hate you.

You dished hypocrisy for breakfast,

lunch and dinner.

Dessert?

A sour glass of tears,

I traded for insecurities and fear.

Trying,

that action which seems easier some days

than the rest.

Mentally damaged 

when those I love or care for

choose someone or some thing over me.

Hang ups,

Fuck you!

I didn’t even shower today.

I barely ate and my mind won’t let up.

Please end this.

Its torture inside and the communication tower

is falling down.

No signal.

Are you really gonna start to love me 

when I’m not around?

Again, 

today I am down.

Feeling like wasted space.

To Live By

Nature shows us truth.
It doesn’t lie or try to be something it’s not. 
We get complete transparency. 
And there is a freeing sense that we never really have to question what we get.
