Baby C.
Heather Rose Aug 2018
We found out that we were pregnant with you on June 5, 2018 and that is when everything changed. Your daddy and I were so excited because we had been trying for over a year to start a family and we finally got our dream. We got you. We started thinking about names and how we would design your room. If you were a boy we were going to name you Parker Dylan we could not come up with a boy name just yet. I even bought you your first outfit because it was Spider-man and I am obsessed. We thought that everything was going okay and that you were healthy and doing just fine. Then on our eleven week check-up we were supposed to find out what you were if you were a boy or girl. The only thing we got to find out that day is that we lost you. You were no longer living inside me you had stopped growing at the eight to nine week mark and they were not sure why. Of course every mother who has or will ever go through this thinks that they did something wrong. They think what could I have done differently there must have been something wrong with me and that it is all my fault. But it is not your fault. I am slowly learning that. It has been one week and four days since I lost you. The worst part was there was no saving you and I did not get to hear your heartbeat for the last time. I am still recovering from the emotional pain this has brought me and I am still recovering from the physical pain this has brought me. The physical pain is brought on by the fact that I had to go through a procedure called a D&C which is the worst thing ever. Your daddy and I never thought that we would have to go through this we thought that we would just be able to bring you into this world without any complications but we were wrong. I am so sorry Baby C. We love you so much.
June 5, 2018 you were conceived July 25, 2018 we lost you

Lost
Heather Rose Nov 2016
I feel so lost anymore
I don't want to feel this way
I sit here and cry for hours
And I never feel okay
I wish things were easier
And I didn't have this feeling of wanting to die
Would people even cry?
Would they'd even care if I wasn't here anymore? Or would their day just keep on going?
Ththey would probably be happy that they wouldn't have to deal with my breakdowns anymore
Or constantly checking on me because my lif is a mess and I want to hurt myself    
If I were them I'd be happy, less stress and worries.
No one cares about the girl that is broken.
I know I don't.

Tired
Heather Rose Mar 2016
I'm tired of giving my all in a relationship
I'm tired of being the one who cares more
I'm tired of always being the one who ends up hurt in the end
I'm tired of laying in my bed crying myself to sleep because "I'm not good enough"
I'm so ******* tired of falling for the wrong people
So tired of thinking that they care about me
So tired of thinking that they actually want me
Tired of believing all the lies they fill my head with
I'm so tired
I'm tired of feeling this way
Tired of not being good enough
Tired of being lied to
Tired of feeling like a *******
Tired of not feeling pretty enough
I'm just tired.

Happiness
Heather Rose Feb 2016
Does anyone really know what the true meaning of happiness is?
Because I don't.
Sometimes I feel like I'm happy, but then that gets taken from me.
Almost like you get caught up in the moment and you can't see straight.
What does happiness mean?
Happiness is the state of being happy.
Gives you pleasure, makes you content, you are satisfied.
But why doesn't that happiness stay with you?
Why are you afraid to remain happy?
Is it because you know that someone will go wrong so you're scared?
Or is it because no matter what you do, you feel like you're not good enough?
Which is it?
Explore your happiness.
Get lost in the moment.
Don't take anything for granted.
Make memories.
Laugh until you cry.
Love with every inch of your body.
Be passionate about what makes you happy.
Don't give up on your dreams.
Be reckless.
Be free.
Just find your happiness.
No matter what.
Be happy.
Live your life to the fullest.
With no regrets or take backs.
Just be happy.

Sickness
Heather Rose Feb 2016
You fill your body until you can't anymore
You take one look in the mirror and you know what you have to do
You jump in the shower and turn on some music to deaden the sound of your sickness
You put your fingers down your throat and watch the evidence of your sickness go down the drain
You know you shouldn't be doing this, but you can't stop yourself from doing it
You feel so much better afterwards, so you keep the cycle going
You crawl into bed after you finish your shower
You close your eyes and try to go to sleep
You drift off for awhile until it is time to get rid of your sickness again
You tell yourself this time is the last time, even though you know that is a lie
You know you can't stop
You are sick, and you have to get rid of your sickness
You need help, but you can't tell anyone about your sickness or they will judge you
Your sickness has consumed your life now
You can't stop the sickness

Fuck you
Heather Rose Jan 2016
All the things you said to me were a lie
You ****** around on me the whole time
You made me believe you cared
But all you did was play me
You told me you loved me
But all you did was lay me
You never really gave a **** about me
You told me I had nothing to worry about
You said I meant everything to you and that there was no one else
That's funny
Six months later and you were ******* someone else
You said it didn't mean anything
You thought I would never find out
You told me I was the one
You told me you wanted a future with me
You said you couldn't picture a life with anyone else
*******
******* and your stupid *** lies
******* and all the ******* you put me through
*******
You said you wanted to marry me
But look at you already engaged to the ***** you were ******* while you were with me
******* for making me believe that you cared about me
******* for making me think I was important
******* for making me think that I was something special for once
You made me feel so safe and secure
But now all I can say is you're a ******* and I ******* despise you
Don't tell me you love me and then **** me over
Don't waste my time with your ******* lies
*******
I hope you're happy
Enjoy your ****** up marriage
Enjoy the lies
*******, ****.

Finding you
Heather Rose Sep 2015
Finding you was the best thing that ever happened to me
You have showed me what it is like to have someone that actually cares about me
You guide me and encourage me to keep going and to succeed
Finding you was like finding a needle in a haystack
I don't know how to explain the way I feel about you
It is like something that I have never felt before
I can't stop smiling when I'm around you
You make me feel so comfortable when I'm around you
It's like I don't even have to try around you
I can be myself around you 100% and I have never felt that before
You make me laugh and smile
You make me happy and forget about my anxiety for a little bit
You talk me out of all my problems and tell me to take things day by day
You are there for me when I'm struggling and need someone to vent to
Finding you has changed my life for the best
Finding you has bettered me
I don't know what I would do without you in my life
Yes, things are complicated right now
But, everything comes so much easier when you are there
You make me see the good in myself
You keep me focused on my education
Finding you has kept me determined to get my teaching degree
I can't wait to graduate college and see you sitting there in the audience watching me walk across stage accepting my diploma
Finding you has made me who I am

Growing Up
Heather Rose Jun 2015
When you were younger everyone asked you what you wanted to be when you grow up.
For most kids their answers were "Doctors, Astronauts, Firefighters, etc." things that the people asking knew they would never become.
But they just let them live the dream for awhile.
Then later on in life they get asked the same question once they were older.
The responses then were "I don't know." "How am I supposed to know?"
How do they except a reasonable answer when we aren't being taught the things we need to know in order for us to make decisions that could affect us for the rest of our lives?
In order for us to grow up we need to find our own paths and go down our own journey's.
We have to make mistakes and learn from them.
That is what growing up means.
Taking chances, making memories, and going after the things you believe in.

Love
Heather Rose May 2015
I want to know what it feels like to be loved
A kind of love that isn't forced
One that just comes natural
Something that makes you happy and have no worries
I want a kind of love that you see in the movies
A fairy tale type love
One that doesn't really exist
But everyone wishes it does
I want a love like the Notebook or any kind of Nicholas Sparks romance
I want a love that you are sitting on a porch in rocking chairs by the man that you grew old with
I want a love that lasts a lifetime

Feelings
Heather Rose May 2015
The feelings that I have for you won't seem to go away
I lay down and wish this thoughts away
I don't know how much more of this I can take
You tell me you miss me, then turn me away
How I am supposed to handle these feelings?
How am I supposed to live my life like this?
You say that you want me, but then you change your mind
You say that you are thankful for me, but then shut me out
These feelings I feel are so ******* real
I'm tired of these feelings
I'm tired of my feelings getting hurt
Feelings ****
I hate the way I feel for you
I hate that I go back to you, even when you ignore me for days
I don't understand why I still have feelings for you
When you really don't give a **** about me
**** feelings

Sick
Heather Rose May 2015
I feel so sick
I don't know what to do anymore
I never feel good about myself anymore
I feel like I look like a ****** twenty-four seven
I feel like I never look good
Even when someone tells me I'm pretty, I never believe it
I feel so ugly
I feel so fat
I feel like I can't ever do anything right
I've tried to push my disorder down and hide it
But I can't do that anymore
I eat till I feel sick
When I feel sick I let that feeling go away in the toilet or shower
I throw up until there is nothing left inside me
I still feel sick after that
I feel like my parents will find out
I don't look sick but I feel sick
I don't want to feel sick anymore
I need help
But I can't ask for help
Then my parents and family will find out that something is wrong with me
Why do I have to be sick?

Life
Heather Rose May 2015
I'm so done with everything
I just want to give up
I'm sick of being used
I'm sick of people making me feel like I'm not good enough
Then throw me away like I'm nothing
It's not a good feeling
It makes me feel like I'm a *******
The guy I slept with the first time ****** me mentally and physically
He used me to get what he needed at the time
Then he kicked me to the curb
I thought that he cared about me
And I thought this time would be different
We've had our past and we went our ways
But we found each other again
I wish we wouldn't have though
You ruined my self-esteem
You made me feel so worthless
When I had my pregnancy scare
Your words to me were
"We wouldn't be a thing, we'd just share a kid."
Those words were like daggers in my heart
I didn't know where to turn
I felt so lost and devastated
I know I'll be judged for what I'm about to say but...
I prayed and prayed that I wouldn't be pregnant
And if for some reason I became pregnant
I would "get it taken care of"
I'm not ready for a baby
I have my whole life ahead of me
I'm still in school
I just became a sophomore in college
I can't provide for a baby right now
And I want my baby to grow up with two parents
Who would love him or her
And being a single mom wouldn't provide that
Judge me, hate me, I don't give a **** anymore.
I just want you to know that having a baby is your decision and if you feel like you can't provide a good life for you child, then do the right thing and get an adoption or an abortion.

Myself
Heather Rose Feb 2015
I gave myself to you for the very first time
It was something that I have always imagined that would happen
I always dreamed of you being my first
And I was able to make that dream come true
The way you made me feel was like no other feeling I have ever felt before
You made sure I was okay
You held me in your arms and kissed my forehead
You called me baby
There are not enough words to describe the way that night made me feel
I am so happy that I got to experience it with you
You are the only person I want to give myself to
You are the only person that I honestly care about
You were and are still the only person that I have ever really loved
We were together when we were younger
And now we are older and we still have something going
You are the only thing that is important to me
I have no idea what I would do if I ever lost you
I gave myself to you because I love you and it felt right
You made me feel comfortable in my own body
And I didn't feel like I needed to cover up my flaws
I felt as though I was the most beautiful thing that you have ever seen
I loved the way you looked at me while I gave myself to you
I loved the way you held me in your arms and started to fall asleep
I will never forget that night
It was the best night of my life and I will never regret it
I gave myself to you because I trust you and I love you with everything that I have in me

Suicide
Heather Rose Jan 2015
Most people believe that suicide is the best option because they can't take the constant Hell that they are put through on a daily basis.
Many people think about how they are going to do it, and the steps they are going to take in ending their lives.
People think about how no one will care if they leave and never come back, because it's just one less burden on their back.
They don't have to worry about that person going into relapse or overdosing.
They don't have to spend hours in a waiting room waiting for the doctor to stitch up the cuts that were left on the wrists of someone that took it too far.
They don't have to worry about if their child will make it through school and get good grades, because if they don't get good grades then they will be a loser.
It's bad enough people know that they have mental breakdowns, for ***** sake, we can't have a child that is a loser, and will work at McDonald's for the  rest of their lives, because they won't amount to anything else.
In this world that we live in, there is a constant pressure on being this "perfect" person, but that is impossible.
We tell society that if they are not a size zero and look like the ******* the cover of a Victoria's Secret magazine, then she is not beautiful.
To me, that is so ****** up.
How do you expect someone to look like that? How can you say that that is the best message to portray to younger girls who actually look at that and think that they have to look like that?
That is ****** up.
That is why people resort to suicide, because they cannot take all the pressure that the media, and society throws at us.
They can't handle the constant pressure of living up to their parents standards and making sure that they are this "perfect" child.
No one is perfect and I wish that people would realize that, because they will never be this "perfect" person.
Everyone is different in their own way.
And we can't expect people to be "perfect" when no one is the same.
Don't resort to suicide because that is the easy solution, because you won't be in this ****** up society.
Be strong, be unique, **** what everyone else thinks, because you are perfect in your own way.

Family
Heather Rose Dec 2014
You call this a family?
When everything is filled with turmoil.
I feel as though I have to walk on eggshells so I don't say the wrong thing and make this family go against me.
I feel this constant burden and I don't know how to escape it.
I don't know what to do anymore.
I don't know what it right.
When you guys go against everything that I believe in.
I just don't know what a family is anymore.

You call this love?
Heather Rose Dec 2014
You call this love when you would make me feel like I was nothing?
Make me feel like I wasn't good enough?
Twisted things around to make it seem like I was the bad guy in any situation?
Why in the **** would you always do that to me?
I know that you knew exactly what you were doing
But regardless, you would continue to hurt me
But no matter what you were always sorry
I don't believe that for a minute
I used to think that maybe you were treating me the way you did because you didn't know how to love someone without saying or doing the wrong thing
Now I know it's because you are a *******
You made me feel like I was nothing
You would call me fat or say things to make me feel like I wasn't pretty enough
You shot my self-esteem so far down, it's hard to repair it
I don't even know where to start
I spent countless hours just lying in bed wishing this would all end
Wishing that some miracle would happen and you would stop the mental and verbal abuse that you would cause me every ******* day we were together
You always promised that you would never be like the rest of the guys I have ever dated, but that was a lie
You lied to me so much that I don't if any of the things you told me were true
You would tell me that you loved me, but you don't know what love is
Love is about accepting a person for who they are and loving them with no limits and not wanting to ever lose them
You did none of those things
Yes, we all have our flaws
But, you sure did know how to pick mine out
I wasn't skinny enough for you
You would say things like
"Oh, you're eating that?" "How can you be hungry right now?" "****, your stomach is looking pretty big today." "That bulge is pretty noticeable." "Should you really be wearing that? It's not that flattering."
Things like that crush me, and you knew that.
Why would you treat me like that?
You call this love?
I call that abuse

I can't handle this..
Heather Rose Dec 2014
I can't handle this **** anymore
Constant worrying
Am I good enough?
Do I look okay?
I used to be the type that didn't care what people would think
But now I can't escape it
I used to hide my flaws and imperfections
Now it seems like that is all I have left
Flaws and Imperfections
Nothing ever seems to go right for me anymore
It's like a constant battle to keep on living
I don't know how much more of this **** I can take before I just break
No one seems to notice what I'm going through
Struggling each and everyday to get out of bed
Always wondering if I should be dead
I don't think anyone would even notice if I were to just disappear
Hell, they may even do a little cheer
Like "Yay, the girl with no self-esteem finally left"
"Now I don't have to carry this burden around on my chest"
They won't have to wonder if I'm having a "bad" day
Or if I even want to stay
Stay alive or stay hidden
Those thoughts are forbidden
No one cares how you feel
They just care about what is "real"
No one will notice if you leave this place and never come back
The only thing they'll care about is all the people who will talk smack
They'll talk about how they loved you so much
And offered you help, but you wouldn't take it
No one will even stop to think about how bad you were hurting
All the pain you felt
All the stress that kept building up
No one will stop and think to themselves "Was there something I could have done to make this all 'better'?"
They'll think about the "good" times that you all had together
But it will be too late
You will already be gone
So I sit here and think to myself
"How much more of this can I handle before I break?"
And my answer is -
I can't handle this..

Trapped
Heather Rose Dec 2014
Life is a big ***** up. People tell you that you're going to go somewhere in life, but you don't.
You can't escape the box that's, that's trapping you inside because you there's no escaping. You know you're trapped for life.
You know when people say to you "everything is going to be okay" well, you have just been told a lie. Because you know when you're put inside that box, you're not escaping.
There's no way out of being trapped. You're stuck there for the rest of your life. You're afraid to sleep, you know that if close your eyes, the flashback starts.
When they send you food, you hurry up and eat it, you eat it so fast before they change their minds.
Then finally, you hear the car start up, and turn out of the driveway.
You're all done, no one is there to tell you what to do, you fall asleep, but only for a second, then you wake up.
You finally realized that you are free, you are no longer trapped.

Boxed In
Heather Rose Dec 2014
I feel boxed in...
With nowhere to turn.
I can't go another night...
Being in here.
No food. No water. No soul...
Just a Box.
No light. No one. No soul...
Just a Box.

Cut
Heather Rose Dec 2014
Cut
Once you take the first cut - you get a fast rush.
It's like you've never lived before.
It makes your mind soar.
It makes you feel so incredible, to get that feeling that you have never felt before.
The kind of feeling that you can't describe.
It makes you feel good the first time - so you go deeper.
And the feeling gets 10 times sweeter - you take another cut.
But, this one doesn't feel as good - your mood changes.
Then you notice that you're bleeding.
You don't know what to do.
You've never been this far in the process - your mind states to digress.
Now you start feeling all the stress - building up in your chest.
You're afraid, scared.
There are so many emotions that you feel.
You start to get emotional.
You see the blood dripping - you feel the blade slipping - you feel your mind drifting.
You feel that you are going to get caught.
It was never as you thought.
You take another swipe across your wrist - feeling the blade touching your skin.
You slide it across - deeper than before.
You want to feel the pain - all over again.
It feels so good.
It changes your mood.
Just one more cut you tell yourself.
But you know you'll take more than just one more cut.
You can't stop - you cut.
Deeper - harder - farther - you bleed more.
You have more pain.
You know that you will cut again.
The cycle is never ending - nothing is going to change.
The blade will meet your wrist once again.

— The End —
