American My lover is all Arts. Performing and visual. Photography, Fictional Writing, Singing; you name it. I love all kinds of music and like my friend once said...am 'Alternative'. I used to crave being like everyone else and the constant worrying of being different and the constant failing and being laughed out drove me to cut myself by the time I entered seventh grade. I stopped quickly when I realized how much I don't give a fuck about what everyone thinks of me. Today I am totally weird and instead of craving to being like everyone else, I constantly seek out being different from the new trends. / If you want to judge me, go ahead but it isn't like I really give not one, but two shits.
You took care of all of my booboos Kissed all my scars But when mental woes came I was discard. I am terrified now, to come to you, I don't want you to look at me Like I'm twisted. Worthless, I felt like that for three ******* years! But when it's your mother, the pain is so much more unbearable than you thought

Worthless
Pen is sharp, Paper is soft, Ink is thick, Words are sour. Lines and dashes, Cuts and Slashes, Pain and sorrow, Never a new tomorrow. Tomorrow is bleak, Bleach stings, Wrapped around my throat, An eternal ring. Tied to pain, Til' death do I part,

Story of My Life
My pain is like the Mississippi A current so strong, I can't tell up or down. I just sit here, Searching on how to end it. And ignoring the number. My reopened cuts don't help, and neither does my bleeding lip, The only way I'll find peace, Is if I end it. School is not a place of terror, I feel safe, Because my real prison, Is one I'll never escape. Home is a prison, My room a cell, A place to get away, From the downstairs hell. People who are supposed to be, Comfort and support, Hurt and torment me Without even knowing. I'll be free one day, From all this pain, But there are two paths to choose, Which one will I take?

Home Is A Prison; My Room A Cell
Why can't life stop? Why won't it leave me alone? I guess everything I do, I can't trust myself. My actions have no meaning, My word empty, And when I can't tell up from down Life throws another curveball. I'm getting bad again, From guessing myself Maybe I should stop But I can't, and that's when I'm most vulnerable, And my monsters come out to play.

Confused
Are you out there? That perfect someone. Taller than 5 feet With your disheveled hair And your imperfect good looks. I don't mean you pretty boys I want the beautiful ones With all the flaws. Inside and Out. I love your flaws Will you love mine? Do you feel pain do you embrace it and let it wrap around you with familiarity? Are you open or listen to good music? An avid country music hater. You are out there Perfectly Imperfect Boy. Where are you? Because I have yet to find you. So you can kiss me unexpectantly and make me laugh. So you can break my walls Piece by piece Till I am nothing left but myself. Come rescue me On your black horse In anyway you desire.

Auditions for the Perfectly Imperfect Boy
I look at you and I smile. You look at me and you smile. It makes me happy. It pushes me to believe in us More and More each day. But I look behind me and I see Her. Always Her. Not Me. I see you in the hallways Waving someone over. I take a step and something zooms by. And it's Her. Always Her. Not Me. Your broken heart cannot heal without something And it's Me. Always Me. Not Her. When you are ready to love again It's Her. When you love with all you heart It's Her. But when you are hurt and heartbroken Looking for a shoulder to cry upon. When you look for something to use time and time again Only to throw away like nothing time and time again Why can't it be Her? I think it might be Me you love- But it's her. Not me. Always Her. Not. Me.

Not Me.
Maybe someone will notice me. In the way I want. Someday someone will notice me, More than naught. Maybe I won't feel lonely, Inside my shell, Someday I won't feel lonely, Inside my hell. Maybe I will die, By my own hand, Someday I will die, Don't you understand? Maybe it will get better, Than it is today, Someday it will get better Or so they say. Maybe I won't get bad, Like I was before, Someday I won't get, A face in the door. Maybe someday starts today. Where I will feel well Someday...maybe I'll escape Hell.

Maybe...Someday
Sorrows in the Night, set me free. Sorrows in the Night, rescue me. My escape, eternal embrace, weeping on the floor I see your face. You tear me apart, with no light, nothing to hold on to, except my Sorrows in the Night.

Sorrows in the Night
What the hell am I supposed to do? With you used to be easy, Meant for two. Now it gets harder, As the days drift by We used to be so close together, Why did you say goodbye? She paints a pretty picture But no one's there to see She paints her tears on paper And then she looks at me I can't help her pain I don't even try. I just sit here crying, As she dies inside. I'm singing, "Oh, oh, oh" I can feel her pain To sacred to even stay I tried to warn them all But no one listened to me They all ignored While I had the key. She paints a pretty picture But no one's there to see She paints her tears on paper And then she looks at me I can't help her pain I don't even try. I just sit here crying, As she dies inside. I'm singing, "Oh, oh, oh" I can feel her pa-ain-ain To scared to even stay Too sacred to- Save her life Stop her tears, They fell like waterfalls That no one can hear. Until they stopped- She painted a pretty picture But no one was there to see She painted her tears on paper And then she looked at me I couldn't help her pain I didn't even try. I just sit here crying, While she has gone to die. Now that she is gone, I hear her in the wind. Endless cries of laughter, Endless days of summer Endless...days of... Nothing to live for Nothing to gain. Now that she has gone away. Nothing stays the same. I paint a pretty picture. No one's there to see, I paint my grief on paper, She cries down to me, Tells me "Stop!" As the paper turns red. I see a figure All dressed in white, I see a figure, Dancing through the night. They paint a picture of her and me They turn around And it's her I see and she's forgiven me. Clouds of white Blue skies below I am with her. Forever home.

She Paints a Pretty Picture

Weave a web, A web of lies. Hide it all. All the ties. Magic at your fingertips, demonic tidings, A beauty in the fear. Burned and Tied at the Stake, Ancestors fate. Hide it, Hide it deep Deep inside you Put to sleep. Time will come For you to show Your eyes will find home, your heart will soar Free from your chains, free from restrain. Show the beauty, Show the grace, But never, Hide your face.
