today its self-hatred tomorrow its love maybe I feel overweight or fall back into old habits of destruction. sad nights where I lie and wait for something other than numb, good nights where I lay with friends laughing over something dumb Even though the happy emotions come they do not keep the darkness from creeping up behind me and whispering in my ear the old morbid thoughts I always used to hear. then the dark clouds fade away into the brightest day where nothing could ever go wrong until instantly and randomly my moods change. I'm sick of laughing till I cry and crying till I laugh. this illness thinks my life is a game but there's nothing I can do to fight back.

living with bipolar disorder
Even when we are miles away I will still have the comfort of looking up at the stars knowing that wherever you are we are looking up at the same sky.

Dying is like sleeping, with no more dreams to rush inside and shake you up, night after night. And all those memories you stored in archive shelves of blood and bone will be by then forever lost.

Dying is like sleeping
you pushed yourself onto me after school in a hallway your breathe smelled like like **** you stroked my hair and asked if i was single while calling me baby girl but I didn't have the power to lie and say no instead a lifeless yes was forced out of my mouth you an eighteen year old stranger taking advantage of me a fifteen year old. I was only 15 when I was ruined by you. A fifteen year old girl already struggling, a girl who only wanted to go home and cry when you pushed yourself onto me kissing my head, my neck I was paralyzed you pushed me up against those lockers as I pushed back my tears.

800 Hall
Used her two fingers to write down her digits Texted him while she leaned against the bathroom stall Laughed at his joke while she coughed up her food Cried because of him when she still wasn’t thin enough

PRETTY PEOPLE
I have so many dreams with you in them. Against my better judgement you find your way in and grace my sleeping subconscious with that amazing smile. I reach for your hand and it feels so real, so close I can close my fingers and feel home again. But before my palm touches yours my body shoots me awake like it's saying "don't drink that poison kid it'll only make it worse." When I see your face I feel my heart and mind leave my body. My heart runs forward, my mind runs away, and my body is left in the middle wondering why. Why it had to be this way, when I know why. What I could've done, when I know there's nothing. I know it doesn't work that way. I know I became the most annoying thing on earth to you after you left. When I freaked out when you wouldn't text back in five minutes. When I tried too hard to have your attention. I was left clawing at the door trying to get it open again. When it was already sealed over with bricks I couldn't break. The glowing entrance sign's lights died out and in the dark I wept to make noise to keep me sane. I told the wall I loved it in hopes of hearing it echo back to me if I screamed loud enough. But here in the fallout of it all, Silence is much more comforting. Feeling my heartbeat steady to a stop. The feeling of your lips on mine is long gone but sometimes in those dreams I can almost feel it again and it makes everything else numb. But before that thought has time to manifest I'm awake. I wish I didn't have to call those dreams nightmares. But they hurt so **** much.

You went away It’s my fault. You hated me I feel your pain. You cursed me I deserve it. You wanted to **** me Please, do it. I hate to see you hate me.

Guilt.
Take another sip see what happens to your family, your friends Because while you drown in ***** they are drowning in sorrow and when you remove your lips from that bottle you do not find peace, tranquility, happiness instead you find regret, anger, and sadness So tell me why Why are we addicted to the things that will **** us and pain the outside world
