16/F/Iowa Life is crappy, but yellow is happy. / I'm just trying to be a writer, / one way or another.
Happy golden thoughts danced around my head. Things of joy happen everywhere Children play Birds chirp Flowers grow towards the sun Everything is happy There cannot be evil, Not in this land of yellow. The people live lives in shades of yellow. No dark color inhabit. A place of happiness really does exist

Yellow
This morning I woke up without regret Everything went well My thoughts didn't cause any turmoil My soul was at peace Suddenly, something changed. I was filled with anxiety Gut-wrenching thoughts flooded in. Maybe I should just die Those words filled my head, Impulses rushed through my body, To act upon those nasty feelings To actually take my own life. But here I am Barely breathing Barely living On the verge of ending it all.

Asleep
How can it be this bad? Nothing bad is going on, Everything is so simple So put together perfectly. On the outside, it's perfect Mom and Dad married Older brother, younger sister Nice house, good neighborhood. Top of class Future mostly planned Good paying job Volunteers in community Behind the closed doors, Behind the put together girl Was the girl struggling to live Every moment was a struggle. Tears of pain and suffering All in silence Because no one sees past The perfect look life she possesses

Perfect Life
I wish for freedom. A peace of my soul wants out. But I hold it in, Because this is not my place, Or my time. I know one day I will be free, As hard as it may be, My freedom is coming. One way or another.

How can I want something so desperately, And it seem so right, But seem so wrong?

Seemingly
I must have dropped my dreams at some point, Because all of the sudden they were on the floor. 'Be careful!' I exclaimed. 'We are,' they claimed. They weren't. Suddenly my dreams were being stepped on. I thought it would be okay, But then I realized They were shattered. My dreams! They were crushed by the careless acts of someone. They said they would be careful Now everything I ever wanted is broken, Shattered with all hope lost. Crunch. The sound they made when the fateful action occurred. My "loved one" so thoughtlessly stepped, They knew, I told them, and they didn't care. All hope lost and my dreams scattering with every second. I wept.

'My Dreams!'
Some days, I do the slicing. Others you do. Regardless It hurts, Hurts like hell On my thigh Or On my heart The blood still runs Red Deep scarlet red. But you Don't know that, Do you?

How do you say, 'You make me want to die.' Without destroying someone?

Funny, They tell tell you To get rid of toxic Things in your life, But when you tell Your Mom That being around her, Makes you want to die, She breaks into A million pieces And begins to cry.
