will i look back at today as a happier day? stressed out bumming cigs promising myself i would quit on my birthday even though i've been 'quitting' for 5 months now i know im happier but how happy can you really be when you take xanax like candy and keep it a secret from everyone you know so they dont worry how happy can you be when you fantasize about emptying your stomach into a white ceramic bowl because the rush you get afterward is the only truly good feeling you've had for a while and the only reason you let yourself get close is because he's leaving in a week anyway so it doesn't matter and besides wasn't one okay **** better than getting close to someone? have i become so good at feigning happiness im fooling myself? is that what true happiness is? all that could make me happy now is a new body with fresh lungs to ruin and a full pack of cigarettes

true happiness is a full pack of cigarettes
I got a tattoo 3 days ago I knew it wasn't a good idea Because the only thing I was excited for was the sensation of needles Its a beautiful piece of work even still Orange and red roses A woman with flushed cheeks and bright blue eyes however covering past mistakes with new ones never seems to work out

Sometimes I ignore everything going on in my life because its easier and then when I'm alone and I try and use cigarettes and TV to distract me It doesn't work the world gets so small I can't breath and I curl up and cry and cry or sometimes I get up and pace and pace and pace and every breath I take hurts and the knots in my stomach and throat are killing me I have no idea what to do I have no one to turn to and I realize how much I have isolated myself I can't get off my desert island I thought I wanted solidarity but I really wanted was safety and security and being alone is the opposite it just created a fearful lonely existence

Anxiety Attacks
I drank cough syrup until my head felt disconnected from my neck But attached to my skull I drown everything out by destroying my liver And ******* frying my brain Its a good time Until you feel like somebody put your head in an oven and slammed the door over and over and over My philosophy that makes this all okay Is that we all die And thats just the world I'll end eventually With scars on my arms and on my organs and on my heart Not all the therapy in the world can change that So **** it I'll drink cough syrup until I have a purple soul

Purple Soul
Watching shadows when I'm with you I feel fine my one and many I swear I saw you raise your hand and wave goodbye only after confessions from the lighter parts of human hearts Dead things are everywhere and all I want is to sleep at the bottom of a crystal lake or to wait for moss and flowers to grow from my eye sockets that is infinity and since all things die I only find peace and sense in the infinite sadness

And The Infinite Sadness
I walk through the fog of my mind I see the tree branches and tree spirits I hear the whispering of the wind The fairy circle is beckoning I cover myself with flowers And I lay down Waiting to rot

To the earth I will return
When I saw the rush of red I panicked sobered up Ambien no longer had its sleepy hands around my throat I threw my silver knight against the shower wall Ran out shivering and naked into the hallway Dripping life force I made the mistake of telling someone Because only the next day in the white four walled cell containing me Did I realize how much I wanted to no longer exist I laid in bed for three days on and off crying and shaking Finally got released To an even more cold family Even more estranged from everyone I know And everyone that thought they knew me I act happy jump threw your hoops Make sure I seem back to normal And every night go to bed praying to not wake up in this life

Bye Bye
Hide with your smile Hide your heavy eyes Hide with the quilt You're safe under the covers Wake up early Serve your time Don't do anything worthwhile as usual What is it all? What is my purpose here? Its definitely not to serve punishments in the school store I hope I can change the world I guess first though I should change myself

Liar Liar
Please remember me Fondly When we were laughing on the porch My pupils wide with understanding You shivering in the cold I sat on your lap and you wrapped your arms around me I felt your breath on my collar bones We held hands I traced your veins all the way up your arms In 10 15 20 years I hope to remember that night And I pray that you will remember me Fondly
