19/Cisgender Female/CA Hi, I rarely make mediocre poems
I guess I'm not enough for you Those nights I stayed up Those things I said The things I did Never enough for anyone People will always want more Things aren't like how they used to be You can try, and try, all you want But everything will never be enough

I'm Not Enough
"You smile too much," they say So I stop "Why aren't you smiling?" "You should smile." I'm confused Do I smile or do I not? Tell me, and I'll do it Whatever pleases you I'll smile, even if it's see-through Even if you know it's a lie I'll smile, even if I want to cry If you want me to stop, I will Your wish I will fulfill If my smile is annoying I'll understand I apologize if I seem bland But I can't seem to make you happy You're always so snappy I come home and wish to leave I try, and I try so hard But all you do is disregard So I'm sorry, I guess I'll try harder I'll do as you want I'll be who you want Just please notice If my smile is true or not

A couple likes here, and a few comments there. All I want you to know is that I actually care. When I look for your follow, I'm constantly asking "where?" All these newbies, posting some pics, you follow them instantly I swear. Not even four hours on the gram, and you follow her. I'm goin five days now, I ain't no ****** amateur. I tell myself to be patient, but it's getting harder everyday. I swear things are turning gray.

I'm There
As the leaves crunch beneath my feet, and the trees weep their now yellow leaves. I'm filled with glee as I feel the cold breeze, don't let Fall end, please. Because the weather is nice, and our house will be warm. The chimney will smoke, as the fire is born. We'll be surrounded by friends, and our family will swarm. But you'll hear the pleas, for the weather to be warm. It'll come from the families whose clothes are torn. So if it'll stop them from freezing, stop the children from wheezing, I guess you can stop the cold Fall's breezing...

Fall
I fell in love, I fell apart in May. I tried so hard to make you stay But in the end, you just slipped away I'd hit you up with a "hey" But you'd ignore me, I was castaway It's been many months, haven't talked a single day  Despite my tries, you walked away I tried so hard to make you stay  But now you've gone, all the way And I still miss that May Day.

May Day
I'm obsessed with these two boys, that I'll never meet. I love to hear them make noise, I think it's very sweet.  They changed my life for the good, and I can never thank them. I'd hug them if I could, say all the things I've been wanting to say to 'em.  I listen to them everyday, no matter in what way it is. It could be in my mind as I lay, relaxing in pure bliss.  They're in my head and they won't leave, it's getting to be painful, knowing we'll never meet. Their songs, are telling me to believe, but it's getting hard, I'm feeling defeat...

I'm Obsessed
I used to cry when I’d cut I wish to die, so what? Nobody would care They’d learn to bare I drag the blade against my skin And wait for them to fade No one comes to my aid I wish to be thin My head spins I’m letting the demons win I regret my life So here I am with this knife I’ll miss you It’s cutting through Bye bye, world I see the light My whole life is swirled I’m taking flight
