All I ever wanted was to protect you Ever since we were little All I ever wanted was to keep you safe from the demons that surrounded us But you saved me instead You kept me safe for all those years Now you're gone and I’m in tears I miss you so much it’s not even fair I love you so much You were the one who was there All I ever wanted was to chase the dark away Wipe your eyes dry, please don’t cry But I couldn’t save you like you saved me I failed miserably I couldn’t even take care of me How can I go on without admitting You have my heart completely I’ll make you proud one day I swear Just so you know I care All I ever wanted was for us to stand together Through rain and shine no matter the weather Holding you close cause we were all we had I so sorry I made you grow up fast Thank you so much for keeping me safe One day when I find my place I’ll see who’s good in this godawful race But just so you know you’re the one I love most No one else will ever come close All I ever wanted was to keep you safe Cause you were all I ever had I’m glad we made it safe and sound I promise to never let you down.

All I ever Wanted
It’s three in the morning and the darkness is suffocating A picture of a happy family rests next to me But I haven’t known them for a long time I think back Where we ever really happy? Please stop looking at me like that Please stop yelling at me I’m not worthless, or lazy, or stupid Am I? Please tell me you were joking Tell me water isn’t thicker than blood Where did you go? Why did you leave? I toss and turn The invisible chains of the past cut deep into my wrists The voices scream and my head pounds Tears spill out of my eyes and blood gushes from where I’ve bitten my lip too hard Please save your little girl Please tell me you still love me Broken is my mind The smile is a lie So go ahead, friends and classmates, and push and punch and beat me Abuse my body like they abused my heart and brain Please don’t stop until I’m not crying anymore Please don’t stop until I stop breathing Please **** me, it’ll be a better fate What is this? Therapy? So you finally realize that your child is broken? You finally admit it, I’m a mistake? You want me to become something? To be just like you? To have no voice? Yes, of course, whatever you say I’ll never be good enough for you, will I? It’s been a long time, hasn’t it? I’m broken but happy and getting better No, don’t ever call me that name again Never call me baby girl Who you thought I was never existed I was just trying to be something you wanted So please, leave me alone Please just go Please let me heal and grieve Please know I love you no matter what I say But I, we, can never be the same So please be proud and happy with the fact you almost killed your daughter Please never forget Please do me this one favor Please?

Do you know how it feels for you to not love me? It's like you stabbed me in the lungs and trying to breath My chest burning in pain and I just try to breathe and smile because you didn't know what you did. I try to support you and care like normal when all I want to do is scream "don't you know what you've done to me" but I can't be angry, you never knew Loving you is the most beautiful and painful thing I've ever done

Unrequited
Dear Sunshine, Where did you go? Why can't I see you? Please come back I'm so cold The Darkness is closing in Sunshine It hurts Scarlet lines scar my pale skin The Darkness is choking me I'm scared Sunshine, where are you? The Darkness haunts me My eyes burn My arms are red Where are you? Why aren't you here? It's gettin harder to breath I won't stop bleeding The Darkness is taking over Goodbye Sunshine, I'm sorry The Darkness won.
