Live love die
I want to be her shadow you looked at her like she was God's masterpiece I want to be her shadow you said her laugh was melodic I want to be her shadow you said she had lips that you couldn't help but kiss I want to be her shadow you love her I want to be her shadow you want her I want to be her shadow you need her I need to be her shadow

you love her you don't love me
maybe if I was funnier he wouldn't have left maybe if I was prettier he would've been happy maybe if I dressed better he would've needed me maybe if I was smarter he would've wanted me maybe if I was graceful he would've been proud of me maybe if I loved him more he would've loved me

The Art of Self Doubt
I can right now jump in front of a car and end my life and I'll stop existing it'll take me from getting out of this house to going out into the busy street to never exist again and I'm ******* scared I'm so ******* scared because I don't know what will be after and I don't want to be nothing after I tried so hard to be something -k.s

I can jump in front of a car
my eyes burn at the sight of the sun I was stupid to think something full of light could never hurt me I was stupid to think some one like you would never hurt me

Burn
I once thought eternity was written across your lips but really it was temporary that was whispered in every kiss your words were loaded guns and I'm sorry I had to pull the trigger if she has the audacity to try to love you more than I did remember to tell her that she won't ever be able too our love and the butterflies in my stomach have perished in the same fire that they once flourished in and now I'm burning too your hands that carried the baby that now gives me life will now reach for her and I think I'm going be sick I'm going to be sick the venom is spitting out of the same mouths that once sang I love you every day you thought you had chains pressing into your wrist when really the chains had already been broken and thrown away we are both the victims and aggressors of this tragedy and no up stander can save us it wasn't you and it wasn't me it was every bumpy road that could never be smoothed over I am sorry i could never save us I am sorry we never worked out I am sorry we even tried I am sorry I loved you I am sorry I was the wall dividing you from happiness I am sorry I was the wall dividing you from her I am so sorry I thought this was forever I'm so sorry                        -k.s

nothing is forever
////March 20 2014 ///// Fainting spells are more common when I'm trying to memorize how ****** got into power Sighing is more common when I'm trying to learn the art of polynomials crying is more common when I have two tests tomorrow and I still need to start that essay that was given yesterday madness is when I have to understand that my sadness is a genetic disposition I could never control Disappointment is more common when I have to yet again cancel the plans I made with my friends But still even after a week of doing this **** the only thing I learned is that knowledge isn't found in a textbook and a power point presentation

Education
you smelt of cigarette smoke too often and you asked me what I believed in I said I believe in the way my knees shake when they hear your voice I believe in the way babies cry when they see life for the first time I believe in the way the sun always rises in the morning and sets in the evening I believe in the way my stomach becomes so twisted and tangled when your eyes entwine like ropes with mine I believe in the way soldiers are sometimes at war with their own mind I believe in the way my head starts becoming dizzy when you talk for a long time I believe in sons and daughters finding their mothers and fathers in graves they've never seen before I believe in the art of leaving and moving pain for the night to come so it can hit you in the morning   I believe in my bones shivering to hear your name again I believe in the type of love that hurts                                                         breaks and                                                 bruises everything you thought you needed I believe in the stars and how they just are you smelt of cigarette smoke too often and you asked me what I believed in   I wasn't lying when I said you                              -(k.s)

What I Believe In
1. Stop looking for constellations in people who don’t even have a star in them 2. Just because your veins Just because your head Just because your lungs Feel like they’re about to explode They aren’t 3. Loneliness is normal so if it at anytime it pierces your skin Buy an earing 4. Your sanity is not determined by all the times You screamed in your mind and no one listened 5. Putting your heart in the hands of people Who only crush it isn’t brave It’s foolish 6. Stop acting like a spoiled brat Clean up the mess you made and apologize no matter what its always your fault 7. He isn’t an ocean You can’t drown But neither can you swim Stay away from him 8. Sunsets and rainbows Weren’t created so you Could enjoy them But look at them Like they were 9. The walls you built Around your kingdom Will one day be knocked down Sometimes it’s okay to surrender 10. Even though Most people don’t have the answer It’s okay to keep questioning 11. Your insecurities will eat you from the inside out be sure to order fries with that 12. No one is better or worse than you We are all skin And bone And flesh One day all of us Will have to give back The stardust we took Don’t forget everything will end So will you (k.s)
