American "We accept the love we think we deserve" ~ Stephen Chbosky
she looks in the mirror trails a finger down her skin doesn't feel her bones ashamed of the skin that she's in she takes a bite of the bread succumbing to the devil but she pours the ipecac down her throat Mia and Ana, rolling in their revel crying into her pillow because she's so fat everyone else is prettier she's not even worth looking at stops eating for a month not satisfied with her body death's knocking on her door but hey, she's no longer stocky! boys have been staring her down lust filling their eyes it's sad to see that no one else sees this detrimental disguise the blood trickles down her forearm who could be more proud? but inside she's screaming for help screaming for help, real loud she never got a chance to say goodbye what a bitter taste but she got what she wanted and all she wanted was a dainty waist

Ribs
the water fills her lungs her lips are now blue her life is slowly coming to an end the white lights are coming into view it's hard to hold on though hard to let go when the angel will kiss you soon you will know tell me if this is real tell me if this fake I knew this day would come surely this was no mistake never knew my skin could be so pale never knew a heart could stop never thought I'd stop breathing never thought I'd see my carcass from atop all life must come to an end nothing lasts forever this is now, that was then who knew death could be so clever?

I hurt myself once again I brought the blade across my skin I never wanted anything from you you'd paint me purple, I'd paint you blue I wanted your heart you wanted mine too but you shattered me, and all that was left were the broken pieces, one big mess you destroyed me, I destroyed you everything we had, a candle that has long been blown everything we had no longer ours to own what I did to you what you did to me I scream at night because of what we could never be

the story of us
for you are my sunshine and all my rain for you are my bruises for you are my pain for you are my laughter and all my wishes for you are my pride and also fictitious even though I know you'll never be you've always meant so much more to me this world is hateful though you are so kind I don't care what they say soon you'll be mine

you know that you're gone you know that you're dead you know who they are you know how you've bled but the sun will still shine the rain will still pour the people will smile and the people will mourn the flowers will bloom the couple will kiss the breeze will blow the careless will remiss the bees will buzz the birds will still sing the scientists will still discover and heartbreak will still sting you know that you're gone you know that you're dead that's just how life is may your legacy spread

Post Mortem
strike the match watch the flame ignite the fire with propane gather your friends see it glow bag the body name? unknown bones to ashes blazing, roaring sirens blaring there was no warning ruins, dirt, debris the evidence, unhidden you better run and hide though the guilt will ridden the cameras will shudder the people will judge the police will interrogate but you mustn't answer, you mustn't budge because in the end you know what you've done you struck the match you murdered someone

Fire
she cried for help stood in the pouring rain sighed and looked away hid her face bit her lip frustrated, not knowing the answer always waiting for someone to save her she brought the blankets up to her face but no amount of warmth from an inanimate object could cure the loneliness she felt inside she was broken shattered hurt he called her name held his hand out lifted her soft chin with his finger caressing her cheek, looking into her sad and empty eyes trying to love her like nobody else could but the inner turmoil that destroyed her every night couldn't be repaired he tried to help her but all she wanted to do was run and hide when she brought the gun to her lips and pulled the trigger he wept and wept and wept and cried himself to sleep until he finally realized what she wanted all along he placed dozens of capsules onto his tongue drinking them down the poison tasting so heavenly when he saw her familiar dark mane nothing mattered anymore just the two of them in their own world together for eternity all that they ever needed

Their Fairytale
as you try and try and keep on trying to find out how much my heart is dedicated to you you, my dear, begin to get frustrated because you just don't know you just don't know how much I ache when I'm away from you you just don't know how broken my heart is when you are hurt you just don't know how much I yearn for your hugs and kisses and for you to hold my hand you don't know what I'd sacrifice to just know that you're okay you don't know that I'd go to the ends of the earth just to hear your voice you just don't know how much I love you and you most certainly never will

You'll never know
It's not our fault that we don't make good choices It's not our fault that we hate each other It's not our that we get angry for no reason It's not our fault that we are never happy It's not our fault that we say things we weren't supposed to say It's not our fault that we make many mistakes It's just human nature

Human nature
A vision that comes out only at night To trick you into thinking that they're real Mesmerizing you with your greatest desires But deep down inside, you know you'll never have They're deceitful and corrupted And when you wake up to reality Disappointment lies right before your eyes But then one day, reality doesn't seem so bad Once those wondrous visions become night terrors They make you go completely insane Until you ask yourself one day, "Were you ever really sane at all?" Evil and darkness, compared to candy and rainbows People filled with joy and happiness Look down upon you Laughing haughtily and smirking, Telling you to Dream Out Loud! It doesn't seem fair now, does it? You're scared of what you'll see once you close those beautiful blue eyes of yours You don't look forward to sleep, terrified of what you've previously seen But, hey Don't forget, always remember To dream
