You can’t see something is wrong Or you do see it but chose to ignore it You don’t ask me what’s wrong The person you claim you love But I see you asking people you hardly talk to if they’re ok So I don’t understand why you can’t do the same for me Why don’t you chose me

Choose me
“I just want to be pretty” I whisper to myself As I look at the parts of me That I see as flaws “I just want to be pretty” I say as I look in the mirror At my large stomach My thick thighs My chubby cheeks And my double chin “I just want to be pretty” I whisper to myself

I want to be pretty
I lay awake laying next to you Amidst the tears rolling down my cheeks I hear you stir in your sleep I lay here awake worried I woke you up But hoping you’d notice my pain I lay here awake, you fall back asleep I lay here awake, tears down my face

Awake
I try so hard to be ok I was tired of being tired Tired of crying And I did well for a while I really did But I’m not ok I’m not ******* ok I feel defeated and alone And I’m left here, missing you Laying in my bed, tears down my cheeks Missing you.

I tried.
I don’t know what thoughts are going through my head because I can’t hear them I don’t know what I think because all I can hear is the opinions of others I don’t know what I want I can’t think I can’t think I can’t think

Thoughts
Everytime I look in the mirror, I wonder what you see in me. I see all my flaws, you see my beauty. I see scars, you see my survival. I see all the acne and bags under my eyes, you see my struggle to sleep with understanding. You see that I try to take care of myself but it’s hard sometimes. In comparison to others I feel immensely inferior. So I ask myself what do you see in me? Why can’t I see what you see? Why does the mirror deceive me?

Mirror
I hope that one day, you get a text from someone and think “wow, I love her so much” or “that’s my girl, she’s gorgeous “ or anything like that. And I know that it might not be me and that’s ok. It will hurt for a while I promise you that, but no matter what I want you to reach a point of being completely in love with someone. I want you to be happy and if you reach that moment, that moment of complete love, with or without me.. I will be happy for you because if I love you, I would want to see you happy. I still love you... but love is indescribable.. it can build you up and tear you down at the exact same moment. Love begins and it can end in the exact. same. moment. It teaches you lessons you’ll remember for a lifetime and all I can say about it is... I’m glad to have the opportunity of loving you.

Love is indescribable
When is it too early To tell him that he’s the love of your life When is it too early To talk about the future When is it too early to wonder if he still loves you It’s too early To “think about the future” he says It’s too early “Anything could happen between then and now” he says It’s too early “I’ve only ever been with you, I don’t know what else is out there” he say I guess it was too early I’ve lost the love of my life I've lost you.

Too early
It’s been hard Trying to figure out who you are Figuring out where you stand. Sometimes the ground is unsteady, unstable Sometimes you fall down It’s hard when no one is there to help you up When gravity is pulling you down.. It’s hard to find the force up But when you find that force, that will to fight.. Nothing can stop you. “I am a force to be reckoned with” you say “I am here, I will fight harder” you say I am here to stay I am here and I will push forward I can beat gravity.

Gravity
How do I function Why am I this way I try so hard to love myself But even though I try hard I know that I’m not really trying at all I know that I miss you I know that I love you I want you to be mine I wish I could get into your head I wish I could see how you feel I know you tell me But the problem is I can’t tell if it’s true or not All I know is that sometimes I feel like I’m not enough Like I’ll never be enough Tell me I’ll be enough Tell me you love me Tell me you want to be with me And if that’s not the case Tell me to move on Tell me we can’t be together Just please tell me how you really feel You can’t go from talking to me every night To talking to me once a week To talking to me once a month This is killing me You used to say goodnight You used to tell me I’m cute Now I don’t get a goodnight I don’t get a you’re cute I don’t know what’s happening Do you just not have time for me anymore Or is it that you just don’t want time for me Was I too much Did I come off too strong Did I? Did I?
