You see that girl? She looks so happy right? Telling jokes, smiling, having a great time and... Dying inside. She's hurt and tired. Tired of all the drama, tired of not being good enough, tired of life. But she doesn't want to look dramatic, weak and attention seeking. So she keeps it all inside. Acts like everything's perfect, but cries at night. So everybody think she's the happiest person they know. That she has no problems and her life is perfect. If only they knew the truth....

This is for the " I'm fine " girls
The girls whose hearts are actually breaking
The girls who smile and nod
The girls who are madly in love with a boy
The girls who blink back their tears
The girls who secretly cry themselves to sleep
The girls who listen to sad music alone

Hey, stay strong.    :)
Everything will be okay someday. In the meantime, smile and keep your head up.

The nerd, shy girl that you met in the past stayed in the past. Because of you this girl grew claws, build a wall, filled herself with sarcastic comments.
Just to never have her heart broken by a stupid *** like you.

Dear Mother,
I am writing this letter at 1 in the morning. You will never see this, and most probably you wouldn't care. I don't know what to feel. The internal temblor killing me was caused by you. Just so you know I LOVE YOU! I have done everything in my hands to make you happy. I have abandoned everyone who I once cared and still love. I have woken up crying because daddy wasn't there. I went to church to see that smile lighting up your face. I have eaten my meals every day. I don't starve myself anymore. I did this because of you. I left everything behind because I love you. But why? Why? Why? Why? I don't understand why. When my sister found out I was cutting myself, instead of asking why or giving me advice you said " no child of mine would ever do those things!" I was so thankful that the only thing left in my wrist were fainted scars. Why do you judge before knowing? Why do you not see that your child isn't happy? Why do you force her to do things that hurt her? I dread to go to church. Of course you don't know why! You just say " you'll go to hell if you don't." You don't know what's it like to see people serving god with their hearts when you where once in that position. You don't know what's it like to cry in the church's restroom because it's painful to see that I was the happiest girl ever in my church! I can't swollen food. As lame as I know you think it sounds, I wish that I was skinnier, beautiful, and loved. Food is just a barrier that I decided to eliminate to play the part. You don't know that I love you. But because of you I am contemplating death. Once again, for the millionth time, just let me heal! Not all of us are like you strong and determined. I am sorry I made you suffer! That was my last intention. You did everything for me but it's my choice. Not yours, not society's, not God's. And right now my choice is to give up! I am sorry I am not your little naive serious girl you once loved and admired. Your girl grew up.

There comes a point in life where you no longer care about anything.
All of your goals and aspirations seem far away.
You no longer feel happiness. Yet, you are constantly facing the world and your family with lies and smiles.
They don't know that deep down in you lies a soul who no longer cares.
There comes a point in life where all of the battles lost turn into opened scars. There's no energy left to die, or to even defend your soul.
You are just there, watching people die, find their soulmates, get excited over a band. Yet you are with them physically, but your soul is numb.
Your soul looks for peace. And that peace can only be obtained by you.
But they wounded you, almost left you there to die.
How can you possibly find the strength to be at peace?

I'm falling in love with someone I've never been able to touch.

Don't come here expecting me to be happy, to be the girl you left behind.
The last thing I am is happy.
Thank you very much.
~sorry not sorry~
The girl you left behind is learning to stand up for herself.
