I'm fat because my first boyfriend in seventh grade broke up with me for another girl and called me a fat ugly ***** over and over. I'm fat because my best friend joined in and wouldn't lend me his jacket when I was cold because he'd rather give it to another girl because she was skinnier. I'm fat because I'm too lazy to work out since depression hit. I'm fat because I stress eat and have a bad sweet tooth. I'm fat because my last ex wouldn't disagree when I asked him if I was fat. I'm fat because he wouldn't let me eat. I'm fat because he would see the plate of food and dramatically say, again? I'm fat because I carved it into my stomach. I'm fat because I have horrible mood swings and panic attacks and had to be put on antidepressants and birth control. I'm fat because I don't look in the mirror anymore unless it's above my chest. I'm fat because that's what I think everyone whispers when I'm not looking because I'm an anxious paranoid freak. I'm fat because my parents say I shouldn't eat this or that. I'm fat because I can't fit in my old pair of jeans. I'm fat because I've always been scared to wear a bikini, now I refuse. I'm fat because my mom says tells me she is fat, when she weighs less than me already. I'm fat because no guys will look at me anymore. I'm fat and I don't know what to do anymore.

Why am I fat?
Brown, the color of your eyes Those sparkling pools of wonder and pain Green, the color of the grass That I laid on with him Black, the color of the void That he left in my heart White, the color of the hope You gave me when you saved me Blue, the color of the sky I look at now, contemplating why Pink, the color of the sunset The time has come to go home Red, the color of the blood That drips down my wrist There is no color now Just emptiness

The Colors
These insecurities are taking over I can barely hide them any longer Slipping from my stitched lips Coming through the seams of my very being I don't know what I am seeing Fact or fiction? Reality or a dream? Who am I? I don't seem to recognize my reflection anymore My body is tired and sore My mind hazy and full of fantasy Wishes never granted Scars of hatred on my skin Tears engraved in my cheeks The blood I once held now leaks I fear everything and anything I just want to feel sane If only for a moment Take this key to my heart I knew you'd stab with it from the start I crave self destruction This self loathing drives me to new heights I crave the kiss of death But instead we dance Maybe it's my posture maybe it's my stance That I need to fix To correct all the wrongs I've done I want to feel normal I want to wake up with a new life I'm too buried in my own strife Help me, I'm begging Point the barrel Pull the trigger I want the gun to be my last tune As my eyes roll back in the light of the moon

Taken Over
I remember walking home from your car. I remember the way the street lights were glowing. I remember how I was glowing. My sanguine cheeks hurt from all the constant smiling. My heart pounding against my rib cage like it wanted to escape just to be in your arms again. My arms wrapped right around me from the cold, wishing you could keep me warm. That was when I realized I was in love with you. And it was the most wonderful thing I had ever experienced. But wait. If I had known what I know now would I have turned around and ended it? Would I walk a little faster, getting chills from your frozen heart, to my home, never to return to that place. Or would I have kept walking, just like I did. Gone home and dreamt of us together for eternity. Only to be let down over and over by your lies. Blood dripping down my face, mind hazy from all the pills. Put in hell for what seemed like forever. Only to be released and taunted even further. Tell me. If I had a choice, if I had known...what would I have done?

The First (Only)
I can't keep doing this This dance with death He pulls me close Whispers in my ear A soft smile on his beautiful face "Come with me." I shake my head slowly Pushing him away But then my arms feel cold, empty An ocean without fish A tree without leaves I search the darkness for him again My arms burn They begin to itch An itch I can never scratch away And then there he is His face is a question mark Wondering when I will follow I shake my head slowly But yet still I let him near Our lips touch A bittersweet paradox But again I push you away "Please..." we both say One day I won't be able to push you away And I'll truly let you take me Together we will finally finish this dance we share

Dance With Death
Fill up my every pore I don't want to feel anymore This pain is too real Too much to feel Take it all away Just for one day

Wrap me up
There is a time and there is a place I love to feed the monster inside Maybe one day I’ll see your lovely face Baby tell me one more time you need me Let it grow to the size of your sin I just wish you could see How much I love you I’d do anything for you Anything for you Put on that smile I wear so well As you fake naïve and pretend it isn’t me Our lips touch as quickly as the razor to my skin They share a similar depth and pain You hold me close and I believe your lies I’d do anything for you Anything for you I whisper I love you You nod like you care But the silence speaks loud

Darkness replaces the light Cautiously I slink through the night Rolling down my sleeves As my love for you bleeds “Hush hush,” you say “For our love must be secret.” “Hush hush,” I say “For we cannot waste our time.” My chest gets tight My heart takes flight Lips on lips This is what they make movies about “Hush hush,” you say “For we must wait.” “Hush hush.” I say “For I’ve caught on to your lies.” Life comes crashing down Smile turning to frown Tears rush down my face This movie is starting to look like a horror film “Hush hush,” you say “For I swear I’m true.” “Hush hush,” I say “For it’s time for you to go.” My knife slides up to your throat While I show you what’s under my coat Fear shocks your body A Cheshire smile on my lips There are no more hushes How will your lies save you now? I’ll give you one last lullaby Now beg for your life I’ll show you hurt I’ll show you pain Let flow what’s keeping us alive “Hush hush,” I say “For our love must be secret.” The last words said before we collapse There we lay motionless Eternal Bliss

Hush Hush
Blindfolded you go through life So naïve of all the pain and suffering Still ****** I raise my knife Straight into your back Little did you expect All those lies Just to get between your thighs I don’t want any of the love money buys I’m getting tired of these ties Just because you fell doesn’t mean I have to catch you Lay in the dirt Maybe you’ll learn something there The only pleasure you can give me is when you’re bent over or on your knees You think you’re my one and only? I bet you’ll take that to your grave I’ll replace you just as soon as you came Nothing but a broken toy Good thing I came with batteries All these lies Just to get between your thighs I don’t want any of the love money buys I’m getting tired of these ties I need you like water in my lungs Nothing more than a pest, a nuisance I can love but never for you Just get down and let me pretend You say you love me? I think you sound better with your mouth full Text me one more ******* time and I swear I’ll leave Don’t you know I’m “busy”? You **** just like the ***** I knew I made you It’s time for me to go I said I didn’t want any strings But it seems I’ve gotten myself tangled I’ll make sure to leave without one ******* word But don’t worry I’ll be back when I’m hungry for more All these lies Just to get between your thighs I don’t want any of the love money buys I’m getting tired of these ties All I see is love in your broken eyes
