Mentally I am scarred
Emotionally I am broken
Inside I am dead
In reality I am done
Yet physically, I smile

Because only happy girls are loved
Girls should just smile and wave
Girls shouldn't be nerds and wear glasses
Girls need to play dumb and wear makeup
Girls need to do the housework for the guys

These stereotypes claw at them
Untill they give in
And they forgeet everything
"Smile and wave, do the chores, make him happy"

That is all they know
And that is all they will do
Untill their brains finall realize what is happening
And they try to find themselves
But they are already to broken to be fixed

If I look in the mirror
I don't see me
I see a girl who is hiding
She sits in the back of the class
She hides during lunch
And the saddest part?
She forgot who she ever was
or ever could be...

I watch
As the world
Falls around me

I hear
The cries
Of the broken

I know
The world
Doesn't mind the hurt

I touch
My friend's hand
As we both stand our ground

And they know
That me and my best friend
Won't ever fall

If only
You had a best friend like mine
Them maybe you would never cry
Please stop crying

I look down at my own black hole
It expands when I feed it
I feed it what people say about me

My black hole likes to eat pain
So I give it my pain
Or else it will eat me

My black hole likes growing
Because when it grows
It is closer to eating me

My black hole never leaves me
And I can't leave it
Because if I leave it
I will feel nothing

I like writing happy things
I like making strangers smile
I like brightening up your day

I like smiling at others
I like making them laugh
I like when I convince myself they aren't laughing at me

I don't like when others ruin my happiness
When they ruin my attempt to make you smile
Can others not understand that the only way I'm happy is if others are too?

Please don't cry
When you see my body
During my funeral
Nor during my burial

Please don't cry
When you find out how I died
When you know how it happened
How it all went down

Please don't cry
I wasn't sad when I died
I was rejoicing when I saw the Lord
When I knew I was gone

Please don't cry
I didn't
I was happier when I left the evil
And cruelty of the Earth

So wipe your tears from your cheeks
And just look above
For I have met the Lord
And we are looking down upon you

I wake
The sun shines through my window
I look out
The grass swiftly blows in the gentle breeze
Trees use there arms and wave to me
I don't want to go outside though
Instead I stay in and hide from the evil of the world
I tell my friends I am not allowed to hang out today
When in reality I don't want to make them hate me
I tell the trees, the grass, and the sun goodbye for the last time
And I don't come out again

I sleep
The moon is the only light left
I look up
The stars fade away
The moon is growing dimmer and dimmer
The dark grass is still
The blackened trees no longer beckon to me
I want to go outside tonight
I walk out and feel the darkness swirl around me
I tell my friends goodbye for the last time
Looking at the moon, I follow
Following it to the edge of the forest I stop for a breath
Then I find any courage that hasn't abandoned me
And I walk in
Never to be found again

I am sleeping
In an endless sleep
But I'm not afraid
I walk out into a bright light
I think this is heaven
But it a hospital
Am I sick?
What happened?
I close my eyes
And I realize what happened
For my heart it a butterfly
So it must've flown away
But I am not ok.


I have lost the man I love
And he will never know it.
I don't know what this was but I just wrote it down...
