Why is my joy the currency for yours?
My smile, a receipt you never read.
I bend,
you breathe easier.
I break,
you call it balance.
But love should not
demand my silence,
nor make a home
from my undoing.
So today,
I gather the pieces
you left behind—
and spend them on me.

Old memories have been clouding my mind lately, its becoming more difficult to seperate a dream from reality. There are days I wake up and Im just searching for it.. trying to remember that last time me and this missing piece were one. My mind continous to wonder and shift ... How long has it been since you've looked me in the eyes and saw the love I have for you... Can you still see it? I dont want you wondering if its there because it is just... lately I've been searching for something thats missing. Something without a name, I cant tell if its an object or a person... or a person holding an object but i can feel its shadow... I can feel the space it use to fill and its absense is so distracting. I sigh thorughout the day and you think it's because Im losing my patience with you but in reality if i could put it in words I just miss, something thats undefined...

10 Times Rotten Tomatoes and I Disagreed
***Disclaimer*** I will be ranking these movies in the following manner: The greater the divide between Rotten Tomatoes and I, the higher up on the list (and I am referring to the critic's score, not the audience score). I will also show Rotten Tomatoes' score on each one in addition to my score. I am curious to know what everyone thinks, please let me know in the comments below!
