We are the children that can't be saved
I fell in love with a boy who was even more broken than I was. His fake smile and pain filled eyes had me hypnotized. He couldn’t open up to anyone anymore since countless people had hurt him in the past so, really I barely even knew him. I was addicted to the way he made me feel and so I spent all my time and energy trying to fix him. It killed me to see him in pain, he was my whole world yet he was barely even existing. A long few months later he was doing so much better, he was finally happy. And then he left me. I fixed him and so he didn’t need me around anymore. After that, I was so much more broken than he ever was.

I fell in love
I can’t escape these thoughts that go on in my head I can’t escape them Maybe they’ll stop if I stop breathing

The darkness has me
The saddest people always try their hardest to make other people happy Because they know what it's like to feel absolutely worthless Trapped in their own mind And they don't want anyone else to feel like that

Selfless
You protect me From my thoughts And when you're not here I'm ashamed Of how easy it is To surrender And become a victim To my own mind Once again

I need help
You may see me smiling much more in pictures, but please don’t misunderstand Grief is still my daily company. It’s just that the face of grief changes Some days are worse than others, but I still deeply cry multiple times every day Some days, I have a lot of good moments, others I have none I still mentally disappear in the world of my bereavement still hoping for their return as well as my own return to my prior being Living is still a task of great expenditure of spiritual energy Being positive is necessary toward healing, but my smiles take more effort than they so depict in my photos

Some days
Please ignore that sharp inhale I just took 
I swear I'm fine 
 I know it might look like I am choking on something 
Believe I am doing fine
 I swear I'm fine Yes go on and on about your day
, with your reoccurring and ever stagnant worries
 I swear I'm fine Please ignore that tear in the pit of my eye
 Please pay no heed to me calling at an hour so obscene
 Don't bother responding to that text message please
 I don't mean to be a bother I swear I'm fine Yes, I know you have a life I know you need some rest
 But don't realize that this head of mine is buzzing It has become so restless It won't let me sleep No it won't let me think I swear 
I'm fine I'm fine I just find it harder to sleep Even harder to wake up
 Harder to eat And even harder to smile Because I feel I am sinking into a deep pit 
Grieving grievances are not what I need 
I just need someone to say "it's fine if you aren't fine" But don't worry
 I swear I'm fine

I'm fine
I knew the moment I met you I could never lose you I knew the moment I met you

2am The time I lay awake thinking about all the mistakes I've made and all the regrets I have The time I spend running my fingers over my scars wishing I could take it all back The time I waste dreaming about the future and all the memories I've yet to make 2am The time that tears me apart

You tell me that these blades are dangerous But so are my thoughts

Meh
Tell me I'm a puzzle piece because you won't know me until you have all the pieces. Stop tossing your opinions because I bat them away every time I prove you wrong and I've never taken a home run without the help of my friends. But these days my friends aren't really my friends, the way a smile isn't sincere if you are holding a knife behind your back. Give me a jolt and not the ****** kind of railway tracks down wrists made of flimsy veins because I'm not going anywhere without your help. I took down all the mirrors and threw away all the sharp edges. I'm becoming a better version of myself. We are all trapped in our reflections and for some reason, we don't see ourselves. Maybe I just want someone to turn around and look me in the eyes so deep, they could see the water buckets behind them about ready to brim over. They'd tell me "you're gonna be fine" and for some reason id smile and walk away like I haven't been dragging the world on a string that was ready to snap like the way you do because you don't get how my mind works. I'd bring my shoulders up a notch and eventually the smiles would come naturally. It's so easy sometimes. You're gonna be fine.
