Gone Empty Alone Worthless Pushed to the limit, But holding out for a savior. About to fall, But holding onto the hand of a stranger. Trust invested in you. With the hope you see those promises through. I've been a shattered shell for too long. Trusting my judgment, then being proved wrong. Never knowing when the time is right, To stop crying myself to sleep at night I feel nothing No words No life Just an empty shell. I'm stuck under a spell. Drifting further into a black hole. Shattered and lifeless, my life takes a toll. My body is being taken over, yet I still feel nothing. Nothing at all. My heart being treated like a kickball. Thrown around, beaten, forgotten about. Those dangerous thoughts that follow the doubt. I just want it all to end. I don't want to feel the pain anymore. There's nothing left to fight for Before I know it I'll be chasing the sun. I'm done. With Everything. I'm done. I feel nothing. Absolutely nothing. Worthless Alone Empty Gone

Nothing
I let you in, You pushed me out. I built you up, You filled me with doubt. I gave you reasons to smile, You tore me down. I gave you words of encouragement, You were the reason behind my frown. I have kept every secret you told me, You betray me. I prevented you from feeling trapped, You prevented me from being free. You don't care, You continue to hurt me, You were never there. You pushed me away, Slowly at first, then all at once, More and more each day. Guilting me into staying by your side, Controlling me like a puppet, Making my emotions your free roller-coaster ride. What kind of sick friendship is this? Am I someone you really trust? Or is this a friendship that won't be missed?

Forget You Too
I hear them. Loud and clear Calling my name From deep within the bitter darkness The place I used to call home Is suddenly being held hostage Trapped and alone I release a sound Foreign to my tongue for It hasn't been spoken In months Too painful to say Too painful to hear My heart can't bare Anymore pain For it might break In a million more pieces The heart can only take so much As I begin to shake The words I've been trying To say to you Escape from my mouth Faster than the speed of light Foreign to my tongue Unable to be contained For they have been For way too long I love you. I miss you. I hate you. I can't stand you. I want you. I need you. Get away from me. Go somewhere else. Don't leave me again. Stay with me. You saved me. But you broke me. Into more than a million pieces Crushed me Left me broken Stepped on my heart You broke me But I love you I really love you All I see is the dark I am surrounded by dark Not a single shred Of light escaping My body I guess I have you To blame for turning My soul Darker than night.

Dark
In the darkest hour, In the brightest day, Every step I take, I miss you in every single way. The way your green eyes shined so bright, The way you always held me tight. You made me feel safe and sound, I miss the way we joked around. I miss the way you used to sing, I miss hearing your voice when the phone would ring. I will forever be your pussycat, I will forever miss hearing you say my brown eyes reminded you of the color of "MUUUD". I will forever be Grandma's little girl. I will work hard to make you proud, When I need you I will call out loud. I know you're always watching over me, My guardian angel you will ALWAYS be.

My Guardian Angel
There is no such thing as perfect. No perfect person, No perfect life. Nothing in this world is perfect. However, If the world was perfect There would be peace; There would be less chaos. Everyone would be the same. In a perfect world, There's no room for change. The world is far too messed up For there to be any chance of it being perfect. We are too focused on the other countries' problems. To worry about our own **** problems. The world is no where near perfect. Yes we have equality, Yes we have more freedoms than other countries do, But as a society, we don't even have perfect. We believe it exists, but there is No true evidence. So you see, nothing in this World is perfect, however, The idea itself exists.

A Perfect World
You were born so beautiful out of your cocoon. You resembled life and freedom. Everyone was jealous of your beauty. Everyone wanted to be you. Until one day, the person who has kept you alive, decided against it. Until that person, that warrior, decided to drop out of battle. You begin to slowly fade away. You crumble into the nothing you started out as. The person who tried keeping you alive has failed you. Your permanent beauty will be well missed. I'm sorry you had to go like this. You will be loved forever. Now you can become a new cocoon in a brand new life. Hopefully you'll be treated better there. Because here, you were failed.

Bye Butterfly
I am the sky, The girl who keeps her head in the clouds. I am the land of the unknown, The girl who dreams of being anywhere but reality. I am the ocean, With feelings going up and down just like the waves. I am the flowers in spring, The girl who is sweet and fun to be around. I am the distant fear inside, The girl afraid to do/ say or believe outside her comfort zone. I am a warrior, The girl who overcame many obstacles. I am a bunny, The girl whose thoughts hop around from one topic to another. I am me.
