"Jesus Christ, that's a pretty face / The kind you'd find on someone I could save / If they don't put me away / Well, it'll be a miracle" -Brand New / / Tumblr: http://imakedirtywordssoundprettyyy.tumblr.com
Was I ***** Maybe I wanted it? That intoxicated girl, She must have said yes. But that girl was me. I did not say yes. Was I ***** only a vague memory of the night But the morning, a vivid reality. Waking up naked in my bed, To a strange man walking out my door. Thanking me for sleeping with him. But I did not say yes. Was I ***** He seemed like a nice guy. Maybe I fell on the walk home. That's why there was blood and bruises, On the most intimate parts of my body. He did take me back to my room. But I did not say yes. Was I ***** The memories will forever haunt me. But months of hell and healing, Have led me to realize: I did not say yes. I was *****

Was I *****
“If I have a daughter and she starts to feel the pressure I once felt I will let her dye her hair blue, red, green even I will let her cut it straighten it shave it I will let her wear black eyeliner and lipsticks I will let her wear basketball shorts and short skirts and hoodies and black ripped jeans I’ll listen to her cry over boys over girls over ******* and ******** and teachers and the world and the universe And every day I’ll tell her I love her I’ll tell her I’m proud of her I’ll tell her she’s strong smart capable until she realizes accepts she does not need to be called beautiful cool different to be herself”

10+ Years
-the raindrops remind me of waking up on 4th of July feeling lonely. -my sheets whisper your name everytime i dare to move. i ache. -my last text from you was 8.12.13 -You are beautiful. and i am sad. We will never work out. -sometimes i wear red lipstick to see my psychiatrist. I just want to feel strong. -i sleep for 14 hours and wake up tired. -the ghosts in my room tug on my curls. they remind me of You. -i feel tainted. -oh god, oh god, oh god. -whilst i sleep the waves rush over my head. i feel peace. -there have been bugs in my veins since the last time we slept together. -i am nothing, i am nothing, i am nothing. -i have been using clever words so You will think i still have a brain. -i sit in the bath until it turns grey to remind myself that i am dirt. -i can not be a self love poem. -You left me drunk and naked everytime. -i am the beginning of a long, cold winter. -i am a snowflake amongst sunflowers and children playing. -Pain. Pain. Pain. -the ringing in my ears has gotten louder since You said You missed me. -i will never be Sylvia Plath. -these walls scream out my secrets. -i would like to be naked Polaroids and cocktails but i am £2.31 white wine and ugly obscenities. -i am an increase of prozac. -You always mentioned your hate for winter. -i will crave you for eternity. -the earth will tremble like my voice. hands. eyes. -this rain will last forever.

Everything is l o u d.
I've always had a love for you Deep inside me I've always loved Something about you Was it your smile? Your beautiful eyes? Maybe it was that wonderful personality Either way it made me fall in love And boy did I fall hard.

Fallen
I cried, I wept; My heart You kept. Yet still You left Without Regret.

And its this late at night that it hits me the most I wont ever see you again, well maybe your ghost. I hope when I look upon your watch Thats when you look down and catch a glimpse of the person I've come to be A person that at a quick glance could be mistaken for you I know that the disease ate your mind up so quickly that all you remember was my faults But I hope when you look down on me now your proud of your only granddaughter because I've become proud to say you're my angel. And its this late at night that it hits me the most I wont ever see you again, well maybe your ghost

To my Angel
“I’ll smoke countless Cigarettes And leave countless Scars On my arms Turn my lungs Black And **** myself up If it means that I won’t have to Remember every **** Second of that ******* day And oh my god I Just need to forget, The pain is driving Me insane, and I don’t Want to hold on Any longer so why am I still here?”

If you have anxiety and you think your shaking voice is a weakness, marry somebody who thinks it is the sweetest thing they have ever heard. Marry somebody who judges the quality of words instead. Or if they get stuck in your head like that one thing you said at a party 2 years ago that you still regret.

If you have anxiety
I wish that I could see myself Through your eyes A reflection they should be My mirror to your Soul But then I think That I probably Don't want to know What you think of someone Like me
