I'm a stupid girl. I hate it. I hate my brain and my heart and they love ******* with me at this hour. Im good at pretending, my poker face is a masterpiece. You probably dont know the extent of my feelings and it boggles my mind because these emotions are so intense that I can physically feel the energy overflowing when I'm around you. Every time you look into my eyes I swear you can see it, maybe you're just a boy and you don't pick it up, or maybe I'm right and you're so intuitive that you know but you just don't reciprocate. Or you don't want to ruin the relationship we've built because you've gone through enough heartache and you don't want to feel that way again. I just want to love you but the ****** up thing is that i want you to be happy even more. I've never felt this and it ******* scares me, am I capable of loving you from afar? I don't know how long I can keep this up. Your best friend told me that you're getting over your feelings for your last girl, he said you want to take a year long break from non platonic relationships. Am I enough for you? Can I get you to open up to me? To love me? Am I being selfish? **** I should go to sleep.

when I see myself in the mirror am I seeing myself? existential dread fills my brain to the brim. It's overwhelming. I am going to die. It will never get better. What did I do to deserve this? I didn't ask for this, never asked to be born into a world full of questions and distractions. Why am I here? How am I here? Why does everything seem so important when nothing is? Why do the ideas of art and love and life appeal so many when we all come to the same tragic end?

so much time has passed but somehow I still feel like the immature, ignorant girl that I was three years ago. I love you just as much, maybe more than I did all those years ago. Your voice still makes my skin tingle, though now it is something completely different. Time and intimacy have changed me for the worse. Your hands danced across my skin before, we were children then. I never knew the full effect of it all, never quite knew the terrible depth of the consequences that followed when you press skin against skin. Body against body. I thought I knew the extent of it all, but we were just children then. How could I have known that things can change so intensely? It hurts, oh God it hurts. Do you feel the same?

it's nights like these when i think of you. nights where i'm drunk off my *** and my mind is racing. nights where i can't stop thinking of the way your mouth moves when you speak. or how you throw your head back when you laugh. i can't stop thinking about how you cross your legs when you're talking to a group of people, and how i think it's cute because i know it makes you feel educated. i cannot get myself to stop thinking about how your hair gets messy when you don't check it for a while, and it's adorable because you're perfect to me no matter what. i wish i could stop ******* thinking about the way i love you, and how i wish so **** much that you would love me back. it's nights like these where i wish you were mine, because you're everything to me.

**Why do I always Write in this state of mind? All I can think about is your breathing and the way you smell. I'm in this **** attic alone, my eyes are wet and my hands are shaking. I want nothing more than for you to be here holding me. I want to be in your arms so ******* badly but you're at home sound asleep and I'm here with a bottle of liquor and a sour taste on my tongue that I can't place. I know this is your fault.Your eyes, your lips, your fingers, brushing, whispering. Why are you not here with me? Why are you not touching my skin, or kissing the tips of my fingers? Why am I alone in this ******* attic with this unrecognizable sour taste in my mouth?**

*I told you I was leaving and you asked me why. Do you actually want to know? Are you asking me because you will miss me? Are you asking me because you are sad? Do you care about me? I want to tell you that I will be back. I want to tell you that, if you are sad, you don't have to be. I would never leave forever. I could never handle being away from you. Should I tell you that? Or should I drag on this facade and see how you truly feel. You asked me why I was leaving, and I still haven't answered. Why am I leaving? Do you love me? Oh God, I hope so, because I love you more than anything.*

I can't help but think that when you're      with her, you're not thinking of me. You say you miss her and my chest tightens.      When you say her name, my heart stops and sinks a little because I      wonder if you tell her about me. I wonder if you've told her about the      time you came over to my house at 2 am with that bottle of ***** or about      how we talked for hours about your family and how you hate God. Or      how about the time we went to that show together and everyone was sweating      and jumping and how you searched for me through the crowd? I wonder if you've      told her about how our bodies were pressed tight against each other, or      how you were whispering the lyrics into my ear like there was no one else there.      I always wonder these things, but I figure you probably don't.

This room smells like sadness and stale cigarettes and the air is thick and humid and this Xanax in my system is slowing my brain down so that the letters of your name are replayed over and over again in my mind. Someone asked me what my poems were about and I respond blankly with the word "nothing" because that's all I feel when I think of the fact that you don't love me. Why don't you love me? Why are these pills the only thing that can make me feel anything?

You're stuck in every corner of my mind. Even here, in this car in the middle of the day, you sink into every crevice and corner of my thoughts. What do you want from me? Why are you doing this to me? Why do you want me to suffer so drastically at the mere thought of you? All I want is to be happy but I can't because your face haunts my brain and I smoke cigarette after cigarette trying to fill my head with anything but you but it doesn't help. Please just leave me be. I wish you never existed.

Every time I begin to think I am getting over you, I am proven wrong. If I go a day without speaking to you, I can point out your flaws. When you're high you talk too much. When you're drunk you get angry. You sometimes don't show empathy for other people's emotions. Your hands aren't fragile. You don't like the smell of incense. You argue with me over things that are not important. But when I'm with you, your excessive talking is cute and interesting. When you're angry, I get excited. Your lack of emotion towards other people doesn't bother me because at times i can understand it. Your hands are rough and hard on my skin and I like the sensation. I don't light incense around you because I much more prefer the flicker of candle light across your face. And when you argue with me, I can't help but feel love. All I feel for you is love, and I ******* hate it.
