There was a night Sitting in my room Engulfed with pain That old bedroom With memories plastered on the walls You sat next to me Seeing the pain she had just put me through You said to me “It wasn’t your fault” And i cried Tears i’ve never cried before Sadness Anger Relief someone saw it too You held me Ever so tight Said you wouldnt let go “It wasn’t your fault It wasn’t your fault It wasn’t your fault” Made me scream it aloud Until I knew it was true You kept holding me while i cried Thinking I’d always have you You said it was all my fault It’s not my fault you raised me this way Your life The ****** ways you grew My life Having to start anew You blame me for the things I’ve learned from you “Do what I say not as I do” A ****** thing from the both of you Tiptoeing around a line that was askew Her teaching me things that will never be true Lies from the mouths of people I knew Reject Neglect Needs that would never be met A million thoughts in my head But only two that say what I wished I had said **** You

Was It My Fault?
There was a time I wanted to rip you to shreds. There was a time I would’ve begged you to stay. There was a time I would’ve done anything for you. You said when you were younger, you were a bad person. You said you worked on it. But I don’t think anything has changed. I used to think you were so strong. But all I can see is how weak you are. How you let one person get in the way of your family. You kicked a narcissist out to protect me only to let another one in. Only to let the same **** thing happen. There was a time when there’s nothing else to say. You didn’t believe me then You won’t believe me now. There’s nothing else to fight for. There was a time I felt empty. That night after the text. Filling my body with the same liquid that ruined my family. Nothing seemed to help. That void still existed. I still was alone. There was a time I wanted you dead. And it lasted for months. I felt embarrassed and ashamed that you left me. Seeing a picture of you just ignited a fire within There was a time I wanted to be dead. What’s the point when you have no one? What’s the point when all you’ve worked for was gone? What’s the point if they didn’t want me. There was a time I felt pity. That you let it happen. You say it was my fault but it was your doing. You wanted this. Your own blood gone. There was a time when I let go. When I stopped checking for phone calls or texts. When I stopped hoping you would show up. When I stopped thinking about what you had for dinner. What shows you binged. There is a time I felt peace. I’m happy where I am.

thoughts in a chick-fil-a store
My worst fear is to be alone. No friends. No family. Just me. I don't want to wake up someday and realize I have no one. That I pushed people away Or made them hate me for some reason. Is it bad that it scares me to the point that I can't be myself, No matter what? Is that bad? Its ******* terrifying to me. Its hard being alone. Its dreadful. I mean I try to talk to someone all the time. I don't know if I do it to distract myself from my thoughts. Or just the fact that I like people. Am I the only one like this? Probably not. But still. It terrifies me. Just the thought of being completely alone make me upset. Like I want to start bawling. I already feel alone. But I have people around me. People I can text. Friends I can call. Family I can talk to. But I have never been completely alone. It can happen. I'm young. Anything. I have years to make sure this doesn't happen to me. Well, who knows if I have years. I could die tomorrow. Or even tonight. But the thought of being completely alone keeps me up at night. It makes me strive to make new friends. To meet new people. To constantly be on call with someone. To even occupy my brain with something else. Like playing video games. Watching YouTube or Netflix. Am I the only one that is terrified of this?

He said "I'm used to it". And at the exact moment, I realized     that         we were going through the same thing. And no matter how many times, I doubt I'll make it out We'll get through it Not alone But T o g e t h e r

Together
The tattoos you left on me Some can kind of see But most of them are invisible. The Tattoos you see Are all my fault But you're the one who put it in my brain. The tattoos you don't see Linger in the dark. But come inside my head and you'll see them all over again. The tattoos to you are just scars But to me they are everything Because you caused me to have them in the first place. The tattoos, you see, Are the only thing that stays. Everything else dies. The tattoos are my children, And I'm their mother. But you don't get that do you

The Tattoos
I’m waiting for the night to save us. But, You’re waiting for the night to break us.

Heartbreak
Broken, Nothing but broken. Im broken. I tried to be okay. I really tried. But I ran. Ran from everything. All the thoughts. All the heartache. And built my walls. And forgot about what mattered the most to me. And now, I’m blocking people out. I’m so tired. I just want to be okay. Everything is falling apart. I’m falling apart. And no one notices. I want people to notice. But I Am Nothing. Just Like Always. It’s all gone.
