you stole my breath but gave me life.
the stars have always been my closest friends. lighting the night, hung overhead. but you, you shine brighter than any galaxy. you are my stars, keeping me company when im alone. and when the sun arises, i will spend every minute waiting for you. i compare my love to the stars, but my love goes beyond space for you. my world was dark before you came, and now; i see fields of light.

H,
i know why you don't like me i finally understand it's the handful of different pills that i'm forced to take, isn't it? it's because I'm crazy and you know better than to get involved because i'll make you mad and that'll ruin me, you know that. i now understand, and i'm sorry for that.

i understand
they put me on pills again they said it would make me feel better that I wouldn't be sad anymore but the shaking is worse now I can't leave my room because I'm scared of dying I'm scared of confrontation because I'm scared of people. I don't want to get hurt and now my palms are clammy face flushed pale. inhale every things gonna be ok right? exhale it didn't work I'm not fixed the anxiety is still here and its eating me alive my mother thinks I'm insane and my sister is scared of me I just want to be alone but I need someone to hold me to tell me that it's alright when I know it's not. the nice people in the white coats said I would get better but I blame them this isn't normal how can wanting to die, but live at the same time, be normal?

thoughts
it's back the sadness it had been gone for a while now it has crept it's way back it snuck in my bedroom and took what I had left leaving me in a dark room abandoned not a glimmer of hope left I will get it back the happiness and I will get revenge I will be triumphant one day.

I promised myself I'd go to bed hours ago. long nights spent wasted on your existence. the way you raised your arms over your head and stretched, the hem of your shirt lifting to see the outline of your toned stomach and the fragile lines along your hips. **** I'm getting carried away again. see? this is what happens, this is what happens when you're in love. you're entire life revolves around them. you begin noticing the little things, like how he stares at you from across the room when he thinks you're not looking. or how he will purposely touch your thigh, he will barely graze it but it will set your mind on fire and later that night and 1am you will remember and the burning will never fade. this is what it's like to be in love. your body is marked with reminders of him, his tongue is poison and he will hurt you so badly. love is not bad, but his love is terrible. and I cannot do it, I cannot sit here and have him caress me when I know his love is fake. he does not care for me. one day he will forget about me and I will still be tangled up in him. this is not what love is. this is not what happiness is. the sun burns now. the moon is my only friend, late at night, after he leaves, the moon is the only one left. how long will this emptiness last?

,
you and your mood ring eyes exploding in a kaleidoscope of colors the shady brown erupts into hazel green prisms speckled with stardust and i am lost in your eyes in your past memories I can see every scar, every past regret all the stories that make you that shape you and they're all captured in your eyes the way they twinkle with delight the solar system is alive in them so vast and dark lit up by stars and planets and I am only a speck in your world just a small fragment of love barely shading your eyes but I know I'm there nestled in the back of your mind for when the days are tough and the nights are long and you miss my mood ring eyes

stolen stars
i always catch him looking away his hooded eyes crinkling porcelain skin turned blood red his nose scrunches together when he gets nervous we aren't alone a crowded room filled with ****** music and cheap liquor keeping us apart i'm smiling now, look up, look up, look up he does its my turn to look away i just want to talk to you but this boy sitting next to me is telling me about his baseball team i keep looking at you *oh **** we've made eye contact can you see my heart racing? can you see it in my eyes that i'm in love with you? this night drags on and i haven't spoken to you yet but i want to so badly please just speak to me

house party
I tend to be angry a lot and I find that my source of rage is you so I run I run so fast I forget about the world around me I focus on running from you away from my love for you I tend to be angry a lot so I punch things I hit so hard my knuckles begin to bleed my skin turns purple and blue I tend to be angry a lot so I write I write so much my fingers cramp my back aches from being hunched over my journal for so long my eyes red and puffy cheeks stained by your words and I get so angry so engulfed by hate but I still love you no matter what no matter how many pills how many empty pages empty bottles I still want you I tend to get angry a lot and I find that my source of hatred is you

endless
time stands still when I am with you so I wear a watch to keep track of all the hours I spend loving you and when you ask me for the time I don't glance down at my wrist I look at you not enough
