19/F Things I have a hard time saying
City lights look so much prettier teary eyed And crashing waves drown out the sounds of breaking hearts I look up to the sky and wonder where all the stars have gone And I think about how im the sky and everyone is the city They outshine me

Its like constantly looking for somebody to be there Somebody to talk to about it But when they’re there Words don’t seem to form You’re rendered speechless And looking like a fool You don’t know how to say it How to explain Even when you do you always hate the silence that comes after You can practically hear them thinking about what to say How to react They don’t understand how you could feel this way And why How So you say its nothing its just a moment that will pass But it hasn’t passed in years And you’re scared that it never will

How to talk

The problem with suicide
I think the problem with me is that I don’t know how to settle I said I wanted to live abroad I did it but now I want to go home I spend months looking for a good job Once i find it I quit on the first week I say that I want a boyfriend But I push away all the guys who try to be in my life All I have are excuses even I don’t buy Im impulsive And reckless and destructive Ive never known how to settle So I mindlessly walk around my life not knowing What to do Where to go Who to love How undeniable lonely being lost in yourself really is

No
I mumble the words I want them to hear Yet don’t I wrap my hands over my chest in attempt to protect it From what I don’t know I say okay but I don’t want to Nothing was ever simple I found myself in the corner cowering I realize ive been there for too long I look up at the sky and I get overwhelmed at how big the world really was And I understand why I confine myself In the safety of my dark room Because I could never fail if I don’t try No one loves the sad girl So im not sad will you love me If I reach out my hand I could almost feel you yet I know you’re way too far I don’t really believe them when they say im pretty Because I know every stretch mark, acne scar, rash, dark spor there is on my body And as much as I try to romanticize my flaws I hate them And I feel ugly I hate my birthday I hate growing old because im scared of being alone forever Being sad forever And not sad that I cry alot But sad that I occasionally cry but most of the time im just laying in bed staring at the ceiling feeling completely empty I love you but I like you but You’re amazing but You’re funny but You’re nice but You’re pretty but You’re not her Just as a friend She’s so much better It gets old You can be such a ***** You’re fat

Meaningless bunch of sentences
Today I met a guy who blew my mind   We didn’t talk long but we talked about a lot He asked about my family And what my siblings were like We talked about religion And how out moms were almost the person He told me he was at that point in life where he got everything he wanted And he’s just looking for someone to marry Told me not to give up on  love this young Now im laying in bed Thinking about all the guys I’ve met All the moves they made to get me into bed All the false praise And the shallow conversations And Im happy That I found someone who genuinely wants to get to know me He spells And i like him I like how much of a dork he is and how he spells cool with a K Im so used to guys flirting That it doesn’t phase me anymore But im giddy And he made me smile Now I can barely sleep Praying that he’s the one I’ve been waiting for And if he’s not I hope he doesn’t go too soon

A guy
Its one of those days When darkness consumes my mind Taking control of my limbs making it press this knife against my throat On the floor sobbing Don’t ask me why it was today because I don’t know Don’t know why my mind chose the middle of the afternoon to say it wants to die It just did Tell me how do I explain that to anybody That nothing triggered me It came out of nowhere Like it was hiding in the shadows waiting for the perfect moment to strike I couldn’t do it though Because it hurt But the miniscule pain gave off temporary relief It gave me a sense of power One that I didn’t have over my life But once my episode is over I get scared Scared that one day I’ll have enough courage to not just press But stab

One of those days
Ive always had trouble expressing myself Because no one ever listened No one ever noticed Im so much more than my short comings and failures Im a 5 year old princess at heart twirling under pink skies Throwing sprinkles and running around rainbows I love my family more than I love myself Even when im sobbing in the dark my mind wanders to what could be happening in the world around me I like animals more than people because no animal has caused me heart ache I smile so you wouldn’t be burdened with my self hatred Im the type of girl who ask for pictures of dogs to make me feel better And I only accept the love I deserve And I don’t really think I deserve love at all

I realized something Things have changed *** stopped filling the void and Words don’t make me feel pretty anymore And heartache is just another pang Forgotten between the beats
