21/F/California I’m a student. I use this as a way to express myself. You might not love everything I write about, but I write about things important to me or the things I've gone through. Mostly prose. Hope you enjoy! Positive vibes! ☀️
I could stay in bed all day and be happy. I could wear pajamas all day and be happy. I could watch tv all day and be happy. I could ignore people all day and be happy. I could cry all day and be happy. I could do nothing all day and be happy. But am I happy or just depressed?

... and be happy
Do you think I'm broken? 'Cause I can't tell anymore. My smiles aren't mine; And I can't tell anyone Because they'll only pity me, Or take it too personally. But it's not about you It's about me. Maybe I am broken, My mind, My heart, My head. My happiness is a lie Because I'm broken.

Broken
So I lost again Again to another friend I don’t want to get in the way So I don’t I stay in my place [Hell, I even give advice] I think.... I don’t know what to think All I know is I’m jealous But I shouldn’t be He’s not mine I don’t own him I didn’t even know I had feelings for him But every time he tells me About his “endeavors” I break a little more My walls build a little higher Because I know one day he’s going to do or say something And it’ll make me want to break my walls So I built a door I shouldn’t have I know that But it’s there now It’s locked But he has the key And one day he’ll unlock that door And I’ll break some more

Losing him (when he’s not even mine)
I'm hungry but I don't want to eat I'm weak   or fat   or both Judgment    from me and others But I don't know what they're thinking I assume I assume they think    I'm gross    and fat    and lazy I could just be healthy I could exercise more Or eat fewer carbs and more protein But I guess    I am lazy because I'd rather just stop eating I know it's bad I know it's dangerous But my brain and my insecurity don't communicate I'm insecure        lazy        gross        unhealthy        FAT

Inner thoughts of non-fat fat person
Do you ever feel so ugly in your own skin? Where you pinch and grab at your physical reasons to hate yourself All the taunts and cruel phrases relive in your jiggles You fad diet yourself into comfort, Only to be reminded of your deep scars as you catch a glimpse in the reflection You strive for societal perfection as you let yourself slip into a cracked version of someone you were The fear that happiness is gone for good And this is all that's left

Yours and Mine
I'm going to stop Stop trying with you I'll try with him instead Maybe he'll like me Maybe I'll grow to like him More than you He'll think         "I'm funny"         "Pretty"         **** Or I'll lose again Alone again- Still

Her vs I pt. 3: Maybe him
I wish I was her You laugh with her You talk to her You hold her You kiss her Why can't I be her Why choose her Am I not good enough Pretty enough Sexy enough She’s your lover- I’m your friend But I’ll never be her You won’t like me- Like you like her I’m not her- You want her

Her vs I pt. 1
She doesn’t try Doesn’t have to I try Maybe too hard- “Notice me” “Look at me” “I’m funny” “I’m pretty” “I’m **** Maybe I’m wrong- I don’t deserve you Not like she does- “She’s funnier” “She’s prettier” “She’s sexier” But I have something- She doesn’t have “I’m more broken”
