Sometimes I feel like I have something missing, like a limb or a part of my heart - as dumb as this sounds.  Someone to balance me out. Not quite a soulmate, just ... another piece of my puzzle. To make me feel complete. I look at you and sometimes, I think, maybe you could be that piece. You make me forget about the bad things and that life ***** really bad sometimes. You help me get out of that dark place in my head that I love to climb into when **** goes wrong. I'm not sure I love you but you're very important to me and I don't know what I'll do when we inevitably stop speaking. A year, maybe, that we still have. Those future plans, I'm not sure they'll happen but I hold on to the dumb hope that they will. I'm not in love with you but you somehow have a small piece of my heart and sometimes you make me feel terrible and other times I want to give you all the other pieces.

I miss being a child
Ignorance is bliss
I've never heard anything truer.
The moment a child is told not to take candy from a stranger or to insert its fingers in the outlet, it is starting to face the horrors of the world. Rapists, murderers, terrorists and thieves; people the child is going to hopefully always evade and not face. And then said child turns into a adolescent. Makeup, tampons, BO and acne. You find out boys are pigs and girls are easy if you know your way with words. You feed off of everything you read and see - the media, parents, teachers, peers and strangers. From then on you have two choices: grow and fend for yourself or keep being a sheep and depending on people to make you feel like somebody. You can educate yourself about sexism, homophobia and islamophobia or call every Muslim "terrorist", say the n words and call people f*gs or *******. Speak up for yourself. Be independent, be your own person. Don't be afraid to look stupid. Research, listen, know your facts. Take very opportunity to travel. Expand your mind. And your heart. Speaking of, do not search for love, it will come. Do not forget to love yourself before loving anyone else. Wrap yourself is self-respect like a thick blanket in the middle of winter. Blow up your self-esteem. But stay humble. Do not brag in the faces of those who have less than you and do not envy those who have more than you. Strive to be as good. So yes, ignorance is bliss but is it really worth missing out on the knowledge?

I am bothered by the dumbest things and for that I am very sorry but you need to understand that I am so very easy to replace and that scares me

I am more interested in your demons at 2am,
Than I am of the person you pretend to be at 2pm.

I understand I made a mistake
(Why don't you care about me? )
But can't you see I'm trying ?
(I just want to please everyone, especially you)
You're letting me go so easily
(You haven't talked to me in 27 days)
Clearly my absence doesn't bother you
(but who's counting)
