they dream more than they sleep
they say the things you do often perceives they way you're taken, i think that's how your beauty is so commonly mistaken. they see the way you treat him like he's nothing without you, but I've spent a lot of time with him, we both know that's not true. they saw the look of envy that crawled across your brow, as i picked him from the darkness and said he made me proud. they watched your acts of bitterness as they began to eat away at him and how they only worsened when I broadened his grin. they caught the words that slithered from your mouth into his head, saying 'You'll never make it in this world' and 'I wish you'd just drop dead'. they say that makes you ugly, when I've seen the way you are- so desperate to make your mark, you live to leave him scars.

unconsciously insecure
I found myself saying: ***"I want to relive Monday; every last moment til I went home"*** and believe me that was true. I wanted to feel you close again, to feel no-one else but you. to look out into the depths of a crowd and still meet the eyes of you. to remind me of the friendship, that blossomed into something more with you. to hold your hand and squeeze it tight when my laugh was caused by you. to stroll along the streets without a care knowing that I had you. to feel the way you made me happy the feeling I hope I give to you. to rekindle that padlock security that I was truly safe with you. You see I've come to realise, or maybe more so hope, that when it all comes down to it that I could finally be, with you. so with that in mind, I say again, with joy secure like stone, ***"I want to relive Monday; every last moment til I went home"***

he wants to say "I love you" but he leaves it at "Goodnight" because love will mean some falling and she's afraid of heights

gender identity can be     one of the hardest things to fight         because the only thing you can do            is lean on what you think                and hope that it's right

the big GI
Some days, I feel everything at once, Other days, I feel nothing at all you see, I don't know what's worse, drowning beneath waves, or dying of thirst.

nothing
Dear Victoria, Where did you go? Why did you leave me? My heart has gone cold. Dear Mindset, Why did you come? You tell me I'm worthless, Useless and dumb. Dear Victoria, I need you back, Without you I do things, My soul's turning black. Dear Mindset, You've changed this child, You've broke my jawline, And stole my smile. Dear Victoria, Right now, I am lost, I'm confused, worried, doubtful, My wrists pay the cost. Dear Mindset, You've ruined my life, It was you who told me, That salvation was in the knife. It was you who began my now grand addiction.    Thank you so much, Love Victoria x
