If I Could’ve Been You

Bri

1 min read

If I could’ve been you Then why would I want to Your life seemed perfect on the outside But I could see what You tried so desperately to hide You told everyone that you’re fine Weaving a mask out of lies The shame growing like a tumor But you always had a great sense of humor Almost like you were frozen At the age you were broken You tried to fix it But they wouldn’t listen You grabbed the knife...

Assured

Bri

You assured me it was okay

Told me she is “just a friend”

But I came home

And saw her on our bed

You don’t have to explain

I already know the answer

I already know what you’re going to say

“This isn’t what it looks like”

But it is

I gave you all I had

But all you gave me were lies

Wrapped in a facade

So believable

That I didn’t give it a second thought

So I’m not giving you a sec...

Another letter

From a secret lover

Sending me his love

Who could it be?

The quiet boy in the corner

Or the obnoxiously loud one at the front of the room

I guess that’s the point of “secret”

In a secret admirer

But something tells me to find him…

Another letter

Signed at the bottom

After The Storm

Bri

After the storm

Is the remains of what used to be

The aftermath

Of something so cruel

Puddles of the memories that you wish you could have forgotten

But they linger

Because there is no sun to dry them up

No happiness to drown out the pain

There is only sorrow

And the burdens

That you will carry until

The day you die...

Betrayal

Bri

1 min read

TW: ⚠️mentions of suicide and OD⚠️

Betrayal feels like a gunshot wound killing you Slowly Painfully Betrayal feels like a knife stabbing your heart Again And again Betrayal feels like your soul leaving your body You try to get it back You try to grasp onto what little life you have left But just like that it’s gone And you feel as your childlike innocence and love for life fades with it You tr...

Desperation

Bri

1 min read

It’s not the heartbreak that kills you It’s the desperation The wanting Waiting For him to take you back When all along it was written in the stars that it was never meant to last And that’s all you can think about When you look up at the moon and you see his face carved into it When everywhere you go you can smell his old cologne The one he said he wouldn’t wear, but he wore it anyway becaus...

Accidental Love Story

Bri

He runs his fingers through his soft, curly hair. I just can’t help but focus on how gently he brushes his other hand along my arm. Jack has been my best friend since preschool, and I had never thought of him as anything more than a friend. But now…I feel something more between us.

I run my fingers through my messy hair. I don’t know why, but my other hand reaches out to her arm. I glide my hand ...

From Beyond The Grave…

Bri

1 min read

I had struggled for hours, thinking that maybe I should just give up. Becoming so weak over the past few months, I could feel myself withering. I knew I wasn’t going to survive very long, so I decided to bake cookies for my hospice nurse to thank her for taking care of me. In hindsight, it was not a very good idea. But in the end, I had a lot of help from my husband, and my extremely eager ten yea...
