For she loves me not for who
I used to be or who I was before,
but for who I am now and what
she knows I'll be in the days to come.

I give myself what is rightfully mine.
The ability to be myself without
the judgement of others affecting
my emotions and self confidence.
I give myself what is rightfully mine.
The freedom to BE without
fear of being disliked and loathed
and tormented.
I give myself what is rightfully mine.
Because you do not have the power to
tell me who I am.
Nor do you have the right to
belittle me into nothing.
I am everything.
I am me.
You cannot change that.

There is a parenthesis plastered to her face.
She stands out in a crowd with her glowing
cheeks and
her infectious laughter.
But if you really look at her,
you'll see the void of happiness in her eyes.
She's not as happy as she pretends to be,
among the crowd of misguided youth.
Her parenthesis are turned the wrong way
but only her eyes tell us the truth.

He was not alone.
The moon and the stars were there.
He could not see them.

What was this
when the snow started falling?
Did it change when the skies grew grey?
I'm not sure if this was meant to be
but it sure as hell could have lasted
a bit longer.
What was it
when the sun beamed through the clouds?
Was it nothing but you turning around?
Here is a shadow,
you ****** the darkness upon my shoulders.
I'm not sure if it was meant to be.
But I'm sure that you were as cold as ice
when you could have been the Summer sun.

Maybe if the wind shifted
its direction
our souls would be
less fractured.
But for now it seems
that our remains will be
severed from our remedies.
Our maladies
meet their extremeties
and forever
less than never
our lives
will be nothing but dust in the breeze.
Now remember please,
that our choices are
confusing.
Save the formalities
for the ceremonies
this rigorous ritual
we claim to be sentimental
our lives that cause stress and
our minds that break our souls.
Like I said, our lives are nothing
but dust in the wind;
if only it'd shift its direction.

I've forgotten what it was like
to have someone there for you
when you needed them.
I've gotten so used to being my
only friend
that I can't recognize the
kindness in another person.
I've become bitter toward
the human race
for leaving me alone in a time when I needed
someone the most.
I felt as if I was a drifting wood,
floating amidst the blue seas.
Endless.
I found no other drifters.
Endless.
I found a horizon that I could not reach.
Here I am,
a floating soul with
a neverending ocean of solitude.
I am my own friend
and I feel like I'm losing me too.

She says she's an alcholic
while she holds her
invisible
bottle of gin.

I'm sorry,
my words aren't good enough
for you.
I'm sorry,
my thoughts aren't worthy
of you.
I'm sorry,
my feelings don't mean anything
to you.
But I'm not sorry,
that I'm honest.
And I'm telling
you how I feel
because
I know that
in a matter
of weeks,
days,
hours,
minutes,
you will not mean
anything
to
me.
Like I didn't to you.

I'd like to tell you a story,
a story about a girl,
a story about a boy.
But while I tell you this story,
I want you to listen.
Listen to the sounds around you,
listen to the cars driving by,
listen to the planes roaring in the sky.
Most of all, listen to yourself.
Your rhythmic breathing,
inhale
exhale.
Inhale
exhale.
Listen to your heart as it
thumps
thump
thump
thumps
in your flesh covered chest.
Tell yourself you are real.
You are alive.
Your story is more important than the one of this boy and girl,
because their story doesn't exist.
Your story does.
So feel alive.
