Who Would've Thought?

Who would've thought
We'd see this day?
Anime, poems, movies, all turned to dust now
My body is numb,
But I think it hurts somewhere.
Who would've thought
It was all a play?
Pretty face, pretty voice, maybe pretty lies
The actor was good
But I think the violence won't let it air
Who would've thought
It was always one way?
Waited for him to cross the road
My hand out,
But I believe the speedy cars didn't let him dare
Who would've thought
All the sweet talks would start with a heyy?
Said he didn't want to hurt me so didn't bother to explain
The orator was good
But the speech made it hard to hear
Who would've thought
My favorite month would no longer be may?
Never missed the chance to look for him despite my aching eyes
The sun was cruel
But at least the winter is near
Who would've thought
Black would be my new gray?
Astronaut, moon, piano, everything so surreal
The artist was good,
But his art was all a snare
Who would've thought
I'd believe everything he'd say?
Would've preferred hurt over silence any time
My grip is tight,
But to leave me hanging, that is so unfair
Who would've thought
I wouldn't want to stay?
Told me to trust no one, nor to expect
I may be strong
But there's only so much a human can bear
Who would've thought
I would no longer need the chord to my bed?
Talked till 3 in the morning, said I'm a good listener
I think he fell asleep
But there's so much more I wanted to share
Who would've thought
I'd no longer need to check my phone every two minutes?
Constant cycle of work, gym, games and habits that I'd never know
I forgot the dream
But I think he said he liked my hair
Who would've thought
I'd have to pay?
Always put his feelings first, not a care of my own heart
I may be rich
But I forgot I'm not a millionaire 
Who would've thought
It'd be over before it even starts?
Moments lingered, but memories now seem like an illusion
Ten for me, five for us
Why take it this far when you didn't even care?

Within this collection, you will find a selection of twelve poems, each delving into a distinct emotion that is frequently deemed "negative" or "unfavorable".

View from the Villain

I ask myself how do people love? The idea of loving someone with their flaws is so foreign to me. I can love a person, but I'd always hate their negative qualities and I know it's true for everyone And if it's not, there's something wrong with me, or something extremely right with them  Does their heart pump love while mine only pumps hate? Is their work hard while mine is just fate? Is their blood hot while mine has run cold? If we have the same hearts, why is mine impossible to hold? Does their hand crave another while mine only craves a pen? Is it wrong to yearn for solitude again and again? How does their love feel like a breeze on a hot day? While mine feels like a debt I can never repay. How do their eyes resemble stars while mine lackluster? How do they give love for love while I just feed them off like a vulture? Does their mind replay memories they love, while mine is just a misery cell? Does their recollection fade when they feel fine, while I remember it all
