When was the point in fragile time you decided to stop stop talking to me At least give me a clue why Don't leave me to investigate possibilities

Beginning and end
1 ~ Figure out what you want, learn to ask for it. Nobody can read your mind. 2 ~ Nobody will love you the way you imagined. 3 ~ Life does not come with a reboot option. 4 ~ People are not covered under manufacturer's warranty. 5 ~ Everything comes with a shelf life, including relationships. 6 ~ Nothing is permanent. Nothing comes free. Why pay for temporary illusions. 7 ~ Even if they hate you. At least they tried. 8 ~ You only live once till you die once. 9 ~ Make happiness a compulsion. Don't let sorrow choose you. 10 ~ Sometimes lose everything. You realize your worth.

You're a special kind of lovely that would never gravitate towards a storm like me

If only they knew That the girl that makes them laugh Cries herself to sleep Every. Single. Night If only they knew Within those quick words Is a cry for help But it seems like everyone is deaf or just plain oblivious It turns out silence can hurt you more than any ill intended words

I have a million things to say to you about how you made me feel how worthless you made me feel how broken you made me feel and I could write you a list I could mail it to you I could write you a song I could sing it to you I could scream it at you I could cry to you all the things you did to me tell you how much I loathe you I could tell you how you WRECKED me how you RUINED things in my life how you destroyed those that I care about and love I could etch it into your skin leave it in a note on your doorstep burn it into the wood of your backyard fence ...but I won't. You really don't even deserve to know what you did to me anymore So goodbye now. Even though you're not even worth a goodbye to me anymore. Repost if someone has stopped even being worth a goodbye to you at this point because of how deeply they wounded you. Please comment! I love to read interpretations of my poetry or your thoughts on my work or on poetry itself as an art!

Not Even Worth A Goodbye (I could)
A single last scarlet autumn leaf, still clinging to the branch despite knowing that winter is coming. Maybe doomed, but a noble thing to do with its last moments of existence. To stay by the side of the tree through the cold when it is almost entirely bare. A spark of hope. A single last petal left on a plucked daisy, he loves me. Maybe not true but a delicate type of fragile beauty. A single silken pure white petal. A spark of hope. A single last person by the bedside of a stranger on their deathbed. Holding the hands of the terminal patient as life fades out of their body like blowing out a candle. A spark of hope. It only takes a single last spark of hope. Repost if someone has been YOUR single last spark of hope. Or if you just really like to repost stuff, then you go on and feel free to do that! I fully support that! ;P Please comment! I love to read interpretations of my poetry or your thoughts on my work or on poetry itself as an art! :)

It only takes a single last spark of hope.
All the once upon a time stories that end in happily ever after have the flawless handsome Prince charming who meets the sweetest princess or young maiden who becomes a princess after they marry (typically approximately 12 to 18 hours or so after they meet usually because the sweet young lady was rescued by the Prince because she was singing randomly and dancing around with woodland animals who do her laundry and she fell off of a tower or was attacked by some lady who literally has no job but spends her entire life just being evil for the sake of being evil and yet never starves to death despite the fact that her evil plots never actually allow her to aquire money or food of any sort.) The girl is always polite Everyone loves her She usually has a waistline tinier than a flowerstem And she sees the good in everyone She is also gorgeous 100% of the time Well I am NOT that girl I can't alwaye be polite and perfect I can't even be pretty There are more people that hate me than there are people who can even tolerate me I'm not the likable easy going type I don't have a three inch waist (mainly because that is completely insane) I can't find a way to like every person I'm the jealous ugly stepsister Anastasia in Cinderella I'm the wicked witch in the wizard of Oz I'm the wolf in the three little pigs I'm the hag in snow white and the seven dwarves I'm not the princess in the story But fortunately, I don't need to be because life is not a fairytale And you don't need to be prince charming Hell, you don't even need to be anything like the lists I make about what my dream guy should be like Because really, since when do I know what I actually want? I certainly am always wrong about what I need So here's the deal You love me for me, be loyal, care about me because of my soul first and my looks having nothing to do with it, you give me eternity, And I promise you the same. I don't need you to catch me when I fall off a tower That doesn't really happen much I need you to catch the little pieces of me when I fall apart because the emotions were all too much I don't need a happily ever after And you don't need to be prince charming Because I am not a princess Repost if you are not a princess either Please comment I love to read interpretations of my work and really any other thoughts you may have! :)

To you ugly means unpopular To you ugly means make-upless To you ugly means not into the same stuff you like To you ugly means different Well to me ugly Means being popular and only caring about that And flaunting it And shoving it in the faces of those who are unloved Stepping on people to get yourself to the top To me ugly means wearing makeup on your soul Covering up your true identity with metaphorical makeup so much thicker than the foundation and concealer and eye shadow I don’t wear To me ugly means liking things ONLY because everyone else does To me ugly means being a monotonous replica of everyone else, just another plastic Barbie doll with zero values and zero love in your heart, not being YOU To me ugly, is telling someone else they are ugly. REPOST if you have a DIFFERENT DEFINITION OF UGLY
