hi i'm alicia.
some nights you will feel like there are a thousand galaxies exploding in every inch of you and you are burning too bright to ever be looked at directly, and some nights you will feel impossibly small, like your whole body could slip through the spaced between atoms and never reappear in this world again, and some nights you will feel like a paper doll, carefully crafted and easily blown away, fragile, too delicate to ever be touched, and some nights you will feel like each cell in your body is made of the strength that holds the whole planet together, and that is okay because you are made of stardust and miniscule atoms and breakable bones and the building blocks of everything in the universe, and you are too alive to never feel anything more than human

i feel so empty. but who knew feeling this empty could cause you to have such a heavy heart. everything's going right, for once, then it all crumbles. at night i fight the urge to scream. and not a scream that's caused by held back tears, or hidden emotions. i fight back a scream that's due to the worst feeling. the feeling of nothingness.

change
all it takes is their name and a rush of reckless memories ravage your brain, a surge of swirling emotions shoot through your veins.

fine
i don't think anyone will understand the pain of being completely abandoned by the people who are supposed to love you the most.

broken
sometimes i still have to take a deep breath and remind myself that not everyone will break me like you did.

there are times i am supposed to be happy like when i am with my friends, throwing my head back and covering my mouth as i shake with laughter at a joke someone jut made. but then day turns to night and my carefree grin turns into an unexplainable sadness, etched on my face like a tattoo. and i lay in bed, thinking about all the things i wish i could say, and all the things i'm afraid to admit. it's nights like these when i realize, i am many things. i am happy and sad, outgoing and shy, crazy and quiet. but mostly, i am just empty.

Empty
there are two types of sadness there's the kind that i can't bare so i watch friends and listen to happy music and find someone to talk to then there's the other one when you know you're sad but you want to isolate yourself and just drown in the pool of emotions listen to sad music read quotes about life and basically just feel empty
