16 I write the words that I choose not to speak/ I have Dyslexia/ I love the smiths
When I feel so lost; you never fail to find me. don't forget that I love you always.

save.
why do i feel so wrong? I feel out of place everywhere I go even in my own home always the daughter with the attitude never asked why just told to stop it Why don't I recognize myself at night sitting and the dark lonely void that is my bedroom staring at some strange figure in the mirror why am I never good enough at anything that matters I can try all I want but in the end I fail Why do I still try? Because I cant be the other broken kid the other let down another burden I'm merely a sack of stardust floating around observing disguised as skin and bone watching others be right and I still can't be anything but wrong

anything but right
Change is a funny thing people will tell others to change all of the time and when they do, its a problem because you shouldn't change for anyone except yourself adults will tell kids to change the way they look at things but when you do that; the things we look at change as kids the world looked big and bright now it looks muted. If you're sad all of the time that's what people say, you just need to change change your mindset change the way you look at the world but the way sad teenagers look at the world might just be real It's scary and hard to think about the next day because things can change so quickly overnight. the key word here is change. many people hate change even if it's good change is an awful thing change means death parting ways rules development adulthood change is beautiful blooming flowers in the spring a change of scenery changing your bedroom up a new hair color leaves turning colors in the fall maybe if we all changed the way we looked at life, the world with all of life inside of it would change too.

Nobody cares when you wake up with headaches everyday Nobody cares about your stomach ache that wont go away Nobody notices when eating becomes difficult Nobody sees the restless nights They only care when your grades start slipping And your room becomes messy but even then, do they really ever care?

do I care
I have written many words for you, My love Birthday cards Text messages Words that I deeply regret Letters that are kept hidden away, I couldn't have you in the way that I wanted Though my heart ached for some time I know now, Thats okay I've written words of my feelings towards you Disguised as words for something else I've spent so long wishing for something That was never meant to be So many tears were wasted on Someone who didn't want me But its okay I now know better My love, it was ephemeral Though the wishes for versions of us Will haunt me forever So as a final goodbye, For the things that I felt I have written one last poem For you, My love.

A poem for you
We are dreaming of tomorrow A tomorrow of love A tomorrow of life The tomorrow that we are free in The tomorrow where we aren't afraid Wondering what happens next The tomorrow that feels light When our futures look bright We dream of this tomorrow But this tomorrow isn't coming Tomorrow is the same as today Dark and lonely Today we are afraid Afraid for what we dont know Fearfull of what we do know The future looks scary The future looks dim Thinking of what happens When the world caves in We are dreaming of tomorrow But tomorrow is not coming

Dreams of tomorrow
Grief is a funny feeling especially when I'm grieving someone who is still alive yesterday I hated you the day before I was so mad at you that I oddly couldn't stop laughing but today right now I cant seem to stop crying I kind of miss you but the you before everything happened the you that I didn't loose I wish I could have done something anything I know I was only fifteen but there must have been something that I could have done or said I miss you So much I'm not sure when you stopped being the version of you that I once knew Some days I wonder if she even existed Grief is a funny feeling It's something that I never understood before I feel like It doesn't count as grief because you are still alive yet all I seem to have left of you are the memories of us the day on the beach is my favorite wind in our hair our matching hoodies that I will never wear again you helped me get down to the sand because I had hurt my knee badly that same day laughing at nothing as my mom stood there taking photos of us having the time of our lives enjoying every single moment I didn't know it then but four months later I would help get you caught doing the thing that ruined us I didn't do that to get you in trouble I did that because I was worried I needed you to stop I wanted so badly to save you but just couldn't I loved you I couldn't help you and that hurts and I'm sorry

It's a funny feeling
how can you save a person who doesn't want to be saved? You can beg and plead but that never seemed to work You can throw out dozens of resources but whether or not the person uses them is not under your control You can choose to watch someone who you love hurt themselves, their future and everything and everyone around them; or you could leave leaving is the harder choice but staying is more painful who knows how I would be doing if I had stayed. they can call you selfish or cruel for leaving during their hard times but they cant expect you to clean their life up for them, yourself. when the dust settles you can either help to sweep it up or you can walk away, leaving that mess to someone else and that is exactly what I chose to do. I left the mess that I walked into for someone else because you cannot save a person who doesn't want to be saved.
