16/F I'm back and I'm now 16 years old. I've been gone from this site for awhile, but believe me, I never stopped writing. I've said it once and I will say it again: poetry is just like music for me- therapy.
I'm never going to be the same so I'll stop trying I think that maybe I'm going insane there's the cause for all of my crying they all know I'm in emotional pain yet they still keep on prying I can't take much more, it's an unfair game but I stay quiet and I'm inwardly dying

Danger (part 2)
Those three words that could Bring happy tears to your eyes Brighten up your day Clear gray skies You wait for those words All your life, not just from Your parents of course But from that one person You'd spend infinity with You wait and you wait You're growing old You still haven't heard those Words But if you did hear them It wasn't meant to be Because they didn't stay Oh, how lonely you are It's okay, I love you. I may not be that Significant other but I may never meet you Or I may pass you on the Street and wouldn't know It's you... Just know This wonderful stranger Loves you no matter Who you are.

Have You Ever Heard The Words "I love you"
I never know what to say when people ask me what I fear the most. Because yes, spiders are gross and weird and yes, ghosts terrify me, but how could I explain that at night instead of nightmares filled with monsters, mine are just of someone walking away? how can I say that I stay awake going over everything wrong I’ve ever done? how can I tell them that my biggest fear is me not being good enough? All my life i’ve worried too much about what people think about me, and lately i’ve gotten better at not thinking about it so much, but there is someone in my life right now that I really don’t want to lose, and I’m scared. I’m scared because I know I mess up a lot, I know that I get repetitive and boring and I ramble when I’m nervous. So how am I supposed to say that I know my constant asking for reassurance that they want me in their life gets tiresome, but it's because its hard for me to imagine that someone actually would? How do I explain that I have never loved myself enough, so the thought of anyone else loving me seems so strange? I am bad at expressing myself, I either show too much emotion or too little, and I'm scared that that's a good enough reason for someone to walk away.

MY LORD
"You don't have any respect for yourself, bouncing from guy to guy." These words sting and stay with me every single day. To think that someone I once loved could say something like that to me. To think that someone I once loved actually thinks that of me. But more importantly, to think that the number of guys you've been with actually determines your self worth. I could sit here and go on defending myself saying how m y number isn't even a high number but that's not the point. The point is that the number of guys you have dated or been with, however high that number may be, DOES NOT define your self worth. I was in an emotionally abusive relationship for about a year and a half without knowing it. Throughout the relationship he had said and done some pretty awful things to me; things that if my dad knew about, he would probably go to his house the next day to beat the **** out of him. But this one stuck to me like glue. Why? because he had made me believe it. He tricked my mind into thinking I was some kind of worthless person who doesn't respect myself. I ask myself why I believed it. Why would someone believe that they are a **** with no self respect? Why would anyone think that ever about themselves? I think I believed it simply because the person who said this was the boy I loved, the boy I confided in, the boy I at one point saw my future with, telling me I have no self worth. It hit me hard, so hard. Harder than any other terrible thing he has said to me. No guy should ever make you feel worthless. No guy should ever convince you that you are anything less than whole. No guy should ever degrade you throughout your relationship. No guy should ever make you feel scared to be around him when he is angry. No guy should ever put his hands on you. No guy should ever throw your mental disorder in your face. No guy should ever feel as though it is okay to purposely hurt you because he feels hurt. No guy should ever make you feel like you're on top of the world one day and under it the next. He did all of this. I can see this now. I can see this now and I have two people that I call my best friends to thank for helping me through this past year. They always supported my decision; knowing that I was a smart girl and simply wanted me to be careful with him. They helped make me realize that what I was involved in was NOT okay. They knew it way before I did but until I had my "click", realizing that this is not healthy or worthwhile, I was going to stay in that relationship. Thank god for my click.

I am the monster you created! I am the life that you hated! I am what you would like to destroy, now I am here to distress and annoy you! I am the ***** secret you wanted to bury. I am the thing that children find scary! I am the burden you have to carry. So why don't you admit that I am real and we can get on with learning how to deal with our co-existence as I torment your mind. I am your monster, I am your Frankenstein!
