We tried We tried so hard But together we are toxic We are like a red apple and a green one We live in each others worlds We know each other perfectly But our difference is so big that being toxic is the only cure I guess that flaw lies in ourselves Intertwining it with our good Feeding off of the negative And projecting the bad Our flaw must be something we can’t go without Trust Its trust Our flaw is we trust each other more than ourselves We rely on each other for happiness hoping for a better outcome each time we come round It's not the first and for sure not the last Our so called love is too strong for that “We promise to work on ourselves” That's something… We promised to each other We promised to ourselves We promised to those around us We promised… Yet the motivation I cant seem to find Its you all along You are my motivation.. I promise myself I will keep this promise I am now working on myself I am not toxic I am healing I trust myself I can keep promises

Myself
Lazy… His one “bad” habit He doesn’t do school work out of school yet he has straight A’s He hates getting out of bed in the morning yet always makes it on time But when it comes down to her he tries He tries to shows her love Even when she doesn’t want it He respects her wishes Even if it hurts his own feelings He prays that she comes around So his heart won't hurt But she's just as lazy And doesn’t care about him And his burning heart

Lazy...
Humble…. The one thing to humble him is a…. certain person Million of girls chasing after him but this one he choose to be stuck on She pulls on his heartstrings by ignoring his messages And dodges him in the halls Chooses friends over him any day For everything they may desire He cherishes the little love he gets But it's clearly not enough He write a paragraph as she write a sentence He buys a gift, she gives a thank you He waves her down, she turns her back It’s so one sided yet he won't leave His eyes swell and his voice cracks As lies slip from her lips over and over again He tries to compose himself for me yet I always notice the change Its small but there, underlining with every word he says The puffy eyes and breaking voice The shaking of the camera Being put on pause for what he thinks is an answer He asks for this and that to make him feel better But what he wants is… advice Advice on what to do, advice on how to make it better Advice on how to make them stay But what he doesn’t want to hear is the truth It’s that he must stray away

That Girl
"your words cut deeper than a knife" they truly do... lies slip out of your mouth easier than telling the truth months of telling you my personal business all for it to backfire on me I let my walls down I guess that is my fault

My Fault
"useless" "annoying" "b!tch" "ugly" Constant thoughts running through my head. The lost of one friendship spiraled and now its tons. one after another name calling and bullying have become common when its me its ok lies after lies have unrevealed  themselves months upon months of fake friendships down the drain.

The widow
Hello It's me again crying and sobbing, panicking over assignments. academic validation is what I seek. crying and sobbing, panicking over dance being perfect comes with a price crying and sobbing panicking over fitting in being "normal" is better than not being normal its better than whatever is hiding within. cry and sobbing panicking, just panicking life of a teen, well at least me, Now its time for me to say goodbye

OK
Zero. One. Two. Three. Fast asleep on my porch in the middle of the day, dreaming my worries away. Like how my doll broke and I’m still mourning the loss. In my sandbox that doesn't have sand, replaced with my most beloved stuffed animals, I lay there not knowing what’s happening outside my world. My mom shakes me awake with worry covering her face. She screams at my father, how could he forget me here? Four. More fights. Five. Dad’s never home. Never has time for me. Doesn't talk to mom much. Red flags, brighter than a firetruck, I didn't see at this young age. Six. Dad’s moved out. I have a new sister. But at least I get a new puppy, and whatever food and toys I want. Plus more presents. Seven. Another sister. This one has a different mom. The fake mom is mean. She thinks she's my mom but she's not. “YOU’RE NOT MY MOM!” I scream and cry until my dad comes back from the store, wondering what happened while he was away. He takes my side of course. I’ve always been daddy's girl and always will be. Eight. Things are changing a lot. I don’t like it. Nine. Dad got a house with her, 2 new dogs with her. Of course my puppy gets neglected. Favorites are picked and now I'm last. This fake mom’s gone at work all day while I look after my real sister and my fake one. I grab my phone that I use only for emergencies, and call my mom, my real mom. “Dad’s sleeping…Fake mom’s at work…My sister’s are crying.” I stubble over my words, not able to get them out due to panic. “I'm coming. I promise.” The fake mom hears it and grabs my phone. “You can't call your mom while she’s at work. And where did you get this?” ‘Hurry mom.’ ‘My real mom.’ I run away, grab my bag, make sure my real sister is good, and grab her hand. It's only real if she has the same mom I thought. My mom gets here thank god. Ten. Fights with fake mom, fights with mom, fights with me. I hate dad's house. I was first, now I’m last. I feel out of place. Eleven. Twelve. July 6th, 2019. Less than a month after my birthday, he left. Left to live with this woman states away. A woman that probably doesn't care about him. Thirteen. I don't talk to my dad, I guess it works out that way. Fourteen. I wanna help, really I do. (TW) P!lls, dr!nk!ng, p@rty!ng. No job, no phone, no contact. I just sit and listen to my mom trash talk him. I know he’s awful, but he’s still my dad. I try to tune her out, keywords hit my eardrums. “Lazy.” “Selfish.” Worthless.” ‘But he's still my dad.’ Now. I wonder what happened to daddy's little girl. The one that would make him dress up, or color while sitting on the balcony. I wonder how it would have been if he stayed. I have lots of questions to ask but I can’t. Fear covers my body every time I try to text or call. No happy birthday this year because I was too scared to answer. Christmas coming up and scared to ask for a simple thing: To be daddy's little girl again.
