bloodied water, dosent clean how it should my mothers daughter Grew up no good. without her father misunderstood She did what she wanted She did what she could made friends with the waters Cut all firewood But still, she was missing her joyful childhood So she chose one day to grow up twice as fast to forget all her sorrow and leave it in the past goodbye joyful fun goodbye question "why" because im older now! and i want to die.

Twice As Fast
Ever so quiet, The silence breaks my heart in two, afraid that if I try it The silence wil break your heart too I told you I'd be there, in a minute or a few shedding tears, kneeling, praying to god, here at the pew let silence grow to sound, let my knees grow to the ground, But please don't let the heart i love, do anything more than pound.

pound
falling to the floor, feeling coldness to my skin. throwing up every day, i let the drugs win. losing weight rapidly, convinced its not a sin. smoking cigs and burning, holes into my skin. sleeping in the bubble bath, overflowing laundry bin, simple little reminders, of the game i cannot win.

WINNER
losing patience, losing time, losing sleep, losing my mind isolated, strong silence, preparing to depart, complicated, conversations, ones that break my heart acceptance, unwillingly, takes its toll on me, blood filling up my eyes, I try so hard to see mistakes are made, paths are crossed, abuse lies deep within, hearts of evil, hearts of hate, the hearts of those who've sinned.

Deception
My blood on solid concrete, stains rocks I once walked on My tears recently fallen, wilt flowers in the shade My success well earned, is sabotaged, by me alone My feet lead me elsewhere, places I don't belong And still I question Why the world is so ugly.

My Question
losing a year to the things I now fear, the type of things that make murky water look clear. The things that relieved me, for a short period of time, are the same things that made me feel like I was losing my mind. the things that tended to numb, my achy little pains, the things that made me personalized shackles and chains. If I had been asked my name, I'd say I forgot. These things are addictive, so try not to get caught. caught in the cycle of using bad things, because addiction is painful and is caused by these things

Bad Things (Addiction Awareness)
I just turned five, and I'm as curious as can be! I just turned eight, and I'm full of energy! I just turned ten, I'm so excited to be me! But now I'm fifteen, and I'm addicted to smoking tree, trying different types of drugs, methamphetamine, taken into custody, and trying hard to flee, learning what is right and wrong, and all that's in between. Living on the streets and learning how to live unseen. Homeless shelters, jail cells, places I no longer want to be. Working towards the life I lost, my home, my family. Occasional visits now and then, that help my recovery. Every day, I seem to learn a neater strategy. To fill the hole that's in my heart, praying god will hear my plea, I'm stronger than I once was, I'm strong enough to be set free.
