"You'll never be good enough" "Your life is a waste" "You're a failure" "You'll never be worthy" "You'll never achieve anything" The voices in my head That I must contend with every waking moment Until I lay down to sleep. At which point I'm convinced That death is better than life For with death, Comes rest from these tormentous demons

Voices in my head
Love; makes the world go round Love; a spoonful of poison to one, a breath of life to another. Love; such simple complexity, that has completely eluded me

Love
I am a master at lying It is an art I’ve become so good at it That when I say I am fine I almost believe myself

The Art of Lying
Your eyes sang the song of loss And I recognized the chorus

To the stranger beside me
Words, When I can't say them, I write them And when I write, I am consumed in the beauty of written expression. Words, so often taken for granted Yet these are my saving grace Written words are my therapy.

Words
That blouse would look great on me The bright flowers would complement my skin tone That red dress, material so soft, color so deep, would accentuate my hips and small ***** But the sleeves are just wrong. They have such short sleeves, barely covering the elbows Those sleeves cannot cover the marks, The dark scars on my wrists That I have been hiding for so long
