Hate Pain Love Sorrow Why do you have to do this to me? You were the person who wasn't supposed to break me You were supposed to always be there for me, I loved you n I love you I'm so pathetic for doing so. You broke me n I'm sure you're glad you did. Does it help your ego to know that you're capable. I'm so sick, I hate myself for actually trusting you with me. Hate Hate till there's nothing left. No more feelings, no more pain, no more sorrow. I'm so done. Hate till there's nothing left. Good job, you made me trust in humanity again Only to scar me deeper than I was before you. I hope you realize what you put people through I hope that one day, you'll come to know the pain, in the depths of your soul Knowing that you reap what you ******* sow. So eat the **** you fed so many And be poisoned by the heartache you put so many through. I never deserved this pain. Now I know where you stand, I always knew it But you covered up so it was ok But to be so blatantly stabbed hurts more than you will ever know. My demons are back, they will always come back No matter how many time I **** them. Nowadays in the pain I feel, Their whispers of insanity are comforting. With them it feels like I'm finally not alone. My insanity is back on its spiral of descent. Keep your painting, your canvas will again turn blank But the face that once occupied will haunt you. I hope it shreds all that you are. I can't believe I wasted my ******* time on letting you close. You warned me that you would break me but I thought For once I was strong enough to survive the pain But it turns out you were right and I was wrong. Your promises turn to poison in my ear Slowly acidically burning through me. Melting what's left. I hate you and the pain you cause.... No I don't hate you, who am I kidding I love you but I hate myself for it. The black is coming back and soon the scarlet will follow.... Oh wait the scarlet is already here decorating my darkness Reminding me once again that insanity is the only sweet escape From this life, this pain....hopefully I don't wake up again.... Hopefully those little white orbs hold a sweet rest for me. Let the black consume me Those scarlet lines making it so much more complete You've broke me... Hate....hate till there's nothing left And as I cry I hope I never forget this pain So I know better than to hope. Oh sweet insanity Oh loving darkness swallow me so I can once again join my demons. Let me join them And let not even death tear us apart. Shred all humanity left in me So this pain goes away And make everything cease to exist.

Colors. Colors have so many meanings and the images the convey vary widely. Black- the color of night, the only time I saw the outside. The color of my room, during nights I silently cried as I was lulled to sleep by muffled shouts. White- the colors of the walls that I stared at for hours, while I felt myself lose touch on reality. Gray- the haze in my mind on the days I didn't get out of bed. The fog that many days passed in, melting one memory with the next. Purple- the bruises from being pinned into place. The marks left on my body because I "deserved" it. Red- the colors of welts left on my body. The color of the little lines that decorated my wrist and arm. Yellow- the color of the sun, the treasure I was blessed to see on rare occasions. The cheery brightness that I try to show others, because I'd never wish the other colors on anyone.

he's leaving i surrounded by nothing the nothing that is so heavy it suffocates me so silent that it deafens all other noises so hollow it fills every crevice of my body and mind like you could touch me and your hand would simply pass through my entire being he's leaving i feel everything the laughs shared as i cried in his arms words whispered as we declared our love to the world he's leaving i feel joy, pain, sorrow but not anger i love him still so i can't say i wish him dead or gone i love him enough to wish him the best even though my heart is being handed back to me in a million pieces those pieces are all the memories shared they're the kisses, the hugs... they're everything he's leaving i wonder does he knows that as he walks away he still has a part of me with him a part that can never be given nor taken back he's leaving i remain or what's left of me remains still loving what i shouldn't hoping for useless things he's leaving i can't hate not someone who was my best friend someone i cared for completely someone who showed me how beautiful the world could be he's leaving and as he does i hope he sees in my eyes the love i still have the wish i'm hoping that he can forevermore be happy he's leaving he's gone...

gone
Loneliness being alone I've tasted it at its sweetest at its bitterest but nothing could match this hole in my heart they say that missing someone is your hearts way of reminding you that you love them if this is true I've never loved anyone as much as i love you this ache that consumes me shows how much I've come to love you your presence gone from my side my hand left empty your scent no longer lingers near me how is it that at one time i could last on my own without any real ties to hold me down but now i catch myself looking over my shoulder looking for you there's so much I've gone through moments i wanted to share with you But every time i looked you weren't there you've become my weakness but if weak is what i am then why do i feel strongest with you by me you pass through my mind every day all day how could a one time stranger affect me in this way how could someone make me this happy how their happiness can become mine too i guess you could call me a fool wanting something every one is telling me is not going to last thats not real but im gonna try i will always be there for you i guess being alone has taught me how to love and love in a way that i never thought possible i won't ask for forever because forever is a hell of a lot to give but i promise all i have to you even if its not much to give i give it to you

Am I worth keeping around? Truly? Then why isn't anything I do right to you? Why can't you accept what I've chosen for myself? Am I not intelligent enough to chose the right thing? You sit there criticizing me, yet say you're proud? You take out all your anger on me, yet say you love me? I don't understand. How can you say I'm one thing but then say I'm something completely different? Is it me or you? How can you expect me to stay as you push me away while you chase after something else? Am I not worth it? You say you do it for me but when something goes wrong you say its my fault? I didn't make you come, so how's is your decision my fault? I can't say these things out loud because of how you'll react? And yet you wonder why I'm not completely open with you when all you do is point out that everything I say is wrong.  How I won't speak my mind, but when I do you drop me to the floor. I'm smarter than a dog, I learn that doing something that led you to hit me,  will most likely lead you to do it once more. You sit there talking down to me....You have no right to criticize me, not after what you've done, what you did, not even last night. You get mad at me when you tell me these things and I don't jump for joy. I'm sorry if you feel guilt as you do these things, but that's not my fault. That is your own conscience speaking. Why must you take everything out on me? Is this my purpose? If so, I'd rather not exist, because it would be less painful. Not existing could never hurt more than the  disappointment I see in your eyes, the anger in your voice,  or the daggers you call words. I bang my head against the wall trying to figure out where you and I stand. Who are you? Who am I? Are you right or am I? Why does everything fade into a gray blur when it comes to me and you? I sit wondering if things will get better, or if that's another false promise you gave me to cling to? Is anything you've told me true? Can I hold onto any of the promises, or should I be warned by the venom that you spew in my direction when things don't go the way you wanted...Can you see what you're doing to me? I'm so torn, I don't think I can be mended. But I never act on these things, not the way most people would...I guess you could say my undying respect and loyalty for you are some of my more pathetic traits. So here I'll remain, with my mind melting in it's fiery turmoil, standing beside you regardless...

My heart Will you hold it? After years of wear and tear? Can you hold it as it crumbles Through the worn out bandages? Are you gentle enough not to shatter what's left? Are you strong enough to hold it together? Are you warm enough to keep it from turning into ice? Are you hot enough to spark a fire from within? Will you? Can you? Should you? Are you? Are you the one for this challenge Or are you not? Should you stay here for me Or should you not? Tell me now, you must Lie to me not Will you hold my heart, Or will you leave me to bust? Will I? Can I? Should I? Am I? Will I be the one to mend your broken heart? To show you its okay to love once again? Will I be the one to make you smile? Or be the one to make you laugh? Can I hold on to the fire in you without being burned? Can I light a passion that will last? Should I let you in? Or should I not? Should I try? Or should I not? Am I the one you'll keep? Am I worthy enough to stay by? If I let you hold this wreckage This wreckage I call my heart Will you keep it safe within the fortress The fortress you call your heart? Within you Within me If you say "I love you too" That is where you'll always be

My Heart
I saw... I saw how you broke the strongest person I know. How you made her fall to her knees. You'll never know how her cries haunt me to this day. "Never trust...keep them away...walls" these thoughts ran and still run through my head. Over and over like a broken record that's beginning to shred my sanity. Look at what you've done. I can't understand how you can walk in here like you've done nothing wrong. Do you feel no guilt? Does the fact that you crushed her mean anything to you? But no, you're right, you always are. Your excuses will always defy logic while you manipulate all your wants to seem right, proving us wrong. Your hypocrisy shreds all other insanities. Will you ever know how when you broke her you shattered me? These scars I have, the scars I hide, they came from you always reminding me what happens when I trust someone. Own this, take responsibility. You boast about your accomplishments already, so why not this? Because it might ruin your image, show the rest that your not all they perceive you to be. Or will it hurt your ego to know that you've done wrong. Because of you I play it safe. Not trusting those around me with my thoughts, emotions, heart... But thats how you wanted it, isn't it. For me to not trust. You know, I find it funny that you wonder why I try pulling away harder every time you tighten my leash. Yeah its ironic how I don't want to come to you when all I get are the verbal smacks of what a terrible person i am, of all I do wrong, of how disappointed you are that I'm not better. But I'm done, I'm not a dog and I refuse to let you dictate this part of my life. I'm human. I'm allowed flaws, opinions, and imperfections. These scars, they make me beautiful. They're battle I've fought, that I've won. So i refuse not to trust, because not everyone judges me the way you do. I refuse... I refuse to be refused my rights as a human being and I refuse to deny everything that makes me, me. So here, take it back. Take it all back. All the lies, false promises, persecution,denial,hate...take it back, all the blows you gave me. All the cracks to my body while I cried for you to stop, but prayed you wouldn't so that you would not see the little boy I was hiding in the corner. You know, I'm standing here right now broken, busted but I am not defeated. I will never let you hold me down. Because...because I'm worth it. I'm worth all the dreams I have, all the hopes I carry and all the love given to me. And for all those people like me, so are you.

It makes me smile When nothing else can I'll do anything for it Jump a building Do a handstand Sing my ABC's I'll be the queen of comedy So that I may hear its music It builds friendships Breaks barriers It's so special Yet so common Laughter

you don't know me and you never will unless you stop looking at me and only seeing me the way you visualize me in your narrow mind you can't force on me the "me" you want me to be if you do i will disappoint you for the real me is like nothing you know why can't i be enough just as i am why can't you understand why can't you see me how can you know the real me if you refuse to see anything that wasn't your ideal So until you finally choose to see the person I really am I will leave you in your own denial and not return til you truly understand
