came to drown myself
in your ocean- yet all you
gave was a puddle

What if....

What if every little thought
That lives inside your head
Instead of hiding away in there
Was spoken out, was said?

Would you be embarrassed?
Would you hate your mouth?
Would you rather be mute
Than let the truth come out?

What if every little thing
That people thought of you
Instead of being tucked away
Was heard, was listened to?

Would you be ashamed?
Would you cover your ears?
Would you rather be deaf
Than let the truth come near?

And what if every image
That passes through your thoughts
Was freed from its prison
To roam until it rots?

Would you be disgusted?
Would you look away?
Would you rather be blind
Than see your thoughts at play?

It's been six years now
and I still wonder about
what we could have been.

You
You don’t know me
Your struggle
Isn’t mine

You don’t live this
Your life
Can’t compare

You don’t understand
Your existence
Won’t comprehend

You don’t get this
Your world
Won’t collide

New guy

Bethany
Oh new guy
This is me

Scars
Carefully concealed

Crazy
Held in check

Drama
Politely hidden

Paranoia
Dismissed quietly

Reality
Completely ignored

All that I am

I need you
To want me
Embrace the crazy
And all that I am

I need you
To know me
Love the broken
And all I am

I need you
To desire me
Appreciate the flaws
And all that I am

I need you
To accept me
Desire the girl
And all that I am
