At age 2, I learned what abuse was when I seen my grandfather hit my mother. I still remember the tears in my mother's eyes. At age 5, I was made fun of for the first time. To this day I still remember that day and how insecure they made me feel. Their words still echo in my head sometimes. At age 9, I got called fat, So I started skipping meals. At age 11, I cut and burned my skin for the first time. To this day when I look at myself in the mirror I can still see those scars. Little did I know that one cut can lead to mortifying addiction. At age 13, I almost lost my mom to cancer. I told this girl about it and I was called an attention ***** To this day, I think twice before I even speak.   At age 14, I realized what I was doing and tried to stop the destruction of my own body. But it was too late; I had already built so people walls around my heart that I could even break.

The story of my life told at 2:30 am
This one for the dreamers This ones for the lost souls This ones for the broken hearts That nobody really knows This one for the misused This ones for the abused This ones for the little hearts That thought they really knew My words may not be enough To carry you through the day But know your on my mind I wanna take your pain Away I wanna wash it down the drain I wanna help you love again I know just how it feels To fall victim to the agonizing pain So for now I tell you Rest your eyes And dream yourself a better life This here's for the forgotten Lay trampled on the floor I know your probably numb by now And can withstand no more But hear me out Close your eyes Dream yourself a better life And one day when you wake up I promise you Everything will be alright And all the pain Will wash away Through the many years Your wounds will heal You'll have your scars As forever memory But trust me and I promise you One day your soul will be free

This Ones For The......
Why do I always remember The time when i never surrendered You, me, and always will be A vision endless memory Hope lead to frustration and frustration lead to anger Reminiscing the time when you said that it's over But this feeling of mine never ceased Up until the time that I'd be deceased I'm always thinking what have I done For you to say that I'm not the one I've done everything I could But love me girl, you still never would But despite the fact that you don't love meI 'll be here forever, girl, you will see Just baby don't you let go Of my heart that loves you so

One sided love
I want to tell you something,   it's a story, a few words about how I got where I am today.   It started with a touch, from myself, The real me; someone I don’t know anymore. it hit me in the chest and it travelled though my veins And it's become one of my nick names . Sometimes I lay down at night and laugh at how much I hated myself . I wanted to charge this and that, And I changed all of myself and more to come. I can tell you that I broke my own heart more times than anyone has and that anyone will. But then I meet this boy  and he changed my life. He once told something along the lines of "you have to fight to love yourself; it'll be hard but I'm sure you will" So here I am fighting. I might fall and tremble but I swear I’m trying to stop hating myself. I'm trying to let go. The day I do, I will scream at the top of my lungs, Because I'm not a forest fire but I'm the forest itself. And so are you.

A Forest Fire
"Do you write poetry about my broken bones? Do you find metaphors for the way you burned down the bridges we built? I bet people think it’s beautiful, I bet they think it’s poetic the way you destroyed me. I bet you tell them falling in love with me was an extraordinary artistic choice, Destroying people is not an art form. Coloring people with shades and values of black and blue does not make you an artist. There is nothing poetic about reaching inside of someone to take what they told you never to touch.”

Destoryed
I tried a combination of hundreds of words to come up with something And I got Nothing Because poems are supposed to be beautiful and intellectually stimulating And I am Not

A Beautiful Poem For An Ugly Soul
Well here I am at the edge of the abyss… Should I get one more step? Millions of voices inside me scream I will not stop One more step And I'll be at the beginning of infinity Going to heaven or hell an afterlife or a nothingness One more step and I’ll finally attain forgiveness or will I attain an eternity of suffering ?

The Step Of Death
Isn’t it lovely how the last thought I have night is, wondering if I disappeared would anyone care? The more I think this thought, the more it lingers in the air. The more it lingers the more it begins feel unfair. Why is this lingering thought following me, making me wish I wasn’t there? Do I cry or scream, or leave it to stare? Mocking me, teasing me with its empty glare. Isn’t it lovely how I sit and regret even being born? I sometimes wonder, if I died would anyone mourn? Will anyone cry for me until crack of dawn? Or is the only attention I will ever get when I honk a horn? Is life going to be this way forever more? Isn’t it lovely how I need to take my life to be rid of you? In such a hard time it’s easy to do. I have some pills, I could take a few. I will write this note so everyone knew. The hardships of teenage life, though it’s nothing new
