Painless
I fear i do not see the point of going on. The once cheerful meadow i had named my outlook on life. With blue clear skies and golden beams of sunlight. Have become nothing more than a graveyard of hopes. With the ghost of my dreams rotting in their caskets. I do not feel that i belong in this time and in this place. In fact i feel i don't belong at all. Anywhere. I long for things well outside my grasp. I mourn my happiness every night. How i wish to fly. I would fly away from this horrid place. I would find a place where I'd belong. If only.

Out of place
I am trapped. Inside a body that is 2 sizes too small for my soul. It constricts me in such a way that breathing is nearly impossible. I wish my skin could tear. I wish it were made of something as delicate as rose petals. For when i look in the mirror. I find the person staring back at me a complete stranger. I believe god has made a mistake. I believe he bottles my soul up in the wrong vessel. Because this body. Although i admire its pretty face and nice shape. Does indeed. Belong to someone else entirely.

Not even reality can hold me Gravity cannot stop my thoughts from floating elsewhere Laws of physics do not apply to my dreams Order is transformed into chaos And the line between sanity and insanity Blur

Insanity
Depression is not a personality trait Not being able to get out of bed is not quirky Cutting off all your friends because you think they hate you is not fun Wanting to. Succeed but not having the motivation is not #lazylife Drug addicitons and cutting do not make you a beautiful disaster And faking depression because you think it's romantic or edgy is disgusting Thanks for coming to my ted-talk

Welcome to my ted talk
I long for soft breezes and golden sunlight Eating lunch perched on a tree branch Running barefoot through meadows of fragrant wildflowers Instead I am sitting in a classroom Listening to the sound of the ancient a\c hum Under the fluorescent lights that cause headache behind my eyes Watching the people around me go on about their lives Because their content I am not

I sleep on white fluffy blankets And order starbucks without much worry I wear nike shoes And expensive jewlery Yet everytime I look in the mirror I see little me The one that slept on hardwood floors And ate canned corn almost everyday The one who didnt know how to wash her clothes and so instead wore them to school ***** and smelly The one that stared at expensive jewelry from afar wishing it were mine And so I feel like an imposter A liar At my university of silver spooned baby's

Silver spoons and canned corn
I hate college I hate my classmates I hate my classes I hate my extracurriculars I hate my teachers Why am I still here? Because society tells me as a black female from a poor family im lucky to be here The thing is though I don't feel lucky I feel trapped

I wish you could truly love me I dont want to be your play thing forever I want what I cant have I want to be your equal But instead im just your toy Undeserving of any love except what you decide to give me Waiting patiently for when you decide to pick me up and play with me again I don't know what I'll do When the day you outgrow dolls finally comes
