My skin with all the acne My feet for being too big My height My style My nails My weight My shyness My uncleanliness My work ethic My weight How I play my instruments My physics grade My hair My personality My smile My teeth My chest My weight My divorced parents How my mom expects too much My sloppy handwriting How I can't express my feelings My weight My weight My weight That's all my mom seems to mention Not my outfit Or my oily hair But my weight She tells me to love myself But how can I When the person I look up to the most Is always trying to change me

What I Hate
To anyone who has cared, I'm sorry I leave you with this burden upon you now. To bear the weight of another lost cause. I am sorry I left you with so much mess to clean up. Clorox removes the blood, but the image is still there, isn't it ? I could apologize for everything, even by existence truly. But I am tired. I have exhausted all that was in me. My soul is tired. Tired of being strong. Tired of trying to please everything, and everyone. I am tired of being who you want me to be, I am tired of being misunderstood. Of having no one care enough to pull me back in when I needed it most. You made it obvious tonight, that you were tired of me. Tired of me, and my emotional baggage. Of my demons, of my problematic life. Trust me, I dont blame you. Anyone would have exhausted faster than you did. You pushed til it was evident, you were running on your last bits of sanity. I am sorry, I did everything I promised that I wouldn't do. I've made it harder for you; although so many times, I've tried so so much harder to make it so much more easier. I always failed. One of the many things I was never good at. Although, I'm staring at my screen, the luminosity hurting my eyes, wishing you'd try and push and care. I put myself in this position. I lied and said I was okay, I wasn't. I was breaking, being torn apart into pieces so unrecognizable. I was crying, I was heaving, and you pushed. I saw, but I pushed back. And i guess, Sweetheart, I guess that you simply couldn't take it anymore. I dont blame you. I'm horrible, a mess. You deserve better. A girl who would sing you lullabies with her smooth soft voice. Someone who threaded easily and gracefully. Rather, not a person who cried and screamed in agony because of her own personal torment. Not a girl born with two left feet, so clumsy I was in everything. I say was, and not am, because all I feel now is the dying embers of a soul that once was. And not is. All I feel is the ashes of a life that could have sprouted vibrantly and beautifully, but rather allowed the weeds to consume her. You were never one for poety, and I guess you'll never understand what I say, would you ? I guess I could apologize for that too. Even when I'm gone I'm confusing you, causing worry and doubt and hurt. What a sad excuse of a life, right ? I'm sorry I let you in so much, only to bring you so very down. I should have saved you from the fall. Who knows, you might just never read this. And all my words, my inconsistent, depressive ***** would be lost to times. I am a waste. A sad shell of a girl, a ghost of a pretty face. I left you without a warning, without a whisper. Without a sound. Im sorry my love, for the incomparable grief that I have ensued to your sensitive soul. I hope you do find someone better, I hope she treats you like I should have, like I couldnt have. I could have heard you said, I pushed you away, it was my fault. But you just wouldn't understand how depressing it could get. How ******* sad I felt. I haven't talked to anyone in the past 3 days. I lied when i said it was just today. I lied because you had exams. Maybe one day, you'd find this, and you'd hate me even more for the fact that yet again, she's hidden something from you. Yet again, I have lied. I'm sorry. Maybe the ***** would hit my veins before I do. Maybe the meds would. And maybe, you'd be happier eventually without me around. I'm sorry love. I'm sorry. And maybe you'd figure out that I'm gone when you're done taking your space as well.

Our Undoing
Could you pass me those cigarettes, So I can smoke this pain away, My death is seen well preset, There should be no delay. Drown my thoughts with your flame, I think I'm the one to blame, To you I brought upon shame, And this was just a little game. Cut my bleeding heart in two, Your name written on it like tattoo, We feels like a long lost deja vu, And now my lungs are imbue. All of these calm waves tonight, I'd tell myself it'll be alright, All I'll have to do is close my eyes, And bid the world goodbye.

Deja vu
This is a story about a girl A girl who cared too much about the world She got in her head that she was fat Turns out she wasn’t and that’s a fact There was a girl who care too much She went about her life as such She cut her thighs And constantly worried about her size That girl who cared too much She starved herself to please someone else The girl who cared too much Now she is dead and nothing is to be said about The girl who cared too much Nobody knows why she felt she had to die No one ever saw her cry The girl who cared too much Before she died She said with a sigh “You won’t charge my mind The choice is all mine” The girl who cared too much “You need to let it be Because this is all me” The girl who cared too much It turned out she lied The pain that was inside Came from words she put aside The girl who cared too much It’s been a month now And no one remembers how they had always put her down The girl who cared too much

The girl who cared too much
The strings are pulled to wake you up another day collecting dust. You look in her eyes while she stands and smiles, all you see is a distant reflection watching the work through her eyes as time passes by. You porcelain doll is chipping away on the inside. As she shatters and breaks Glass sprawled out on the floor you watch her get cut as she tries to pick her self back up not wanting to anymore. She's locked out the world you little perfect porcelain doll with her once perfect hair, smooth skin and big beautiful eyes that let you in. And yet you still don't notice how your once little perfect porcelain doll is shattered and cracked and hasn't said a word she silently stops picking up the pieces and thinks in her old broken mind just how many lies and secrets can this old chipped porcelain smile hide. But one day you little perfect porcelain doll will shatter and break and so will her old chipped smile. And you will finally see that your little perfect porcelain doll isn't so perfect at all.
