forge your wounds and scars into weapons, like swords and blades. if anyone tries to use your weaknesses against you, they will be afraid.

I think I'm crazy
Insecure
Overreactive
Overthinking
Stupid
My friend held me close and whispered
"Not everything is your fault."
I blame myself for everything sometimes and I realised I that don't have that much power.

He said I gave up on him easily
That I left him too soon
I didn't give up
I just got tired of knocking
On the door of your heart
Hoping that you let me in
I was beaten by the rain
I was flogged by the wind
Laughed at because I looked desperate
Mistaken for a beggar
Mistaken for a con-artist
But never seen as a lover
I got tired of knocking
Because if you keep knocking
And there is no answer,
It means nobody is home
Or they don't want to let you in.

So maybe I did give up
Atleast I tried...

They say it hurts like a sting
When your heart is broken
Into a million different pieces
But I don't feel a thing
Instead I feel nothing
Not emptiness
And not heaviness
Instead I feel free

Maybe my heart was never broken
Maybe you can't break a heart that is already broken.
It's a beautiful day outside

do you remember when we still loved each other?

or- we did not know it was love-

we fell asleep together

and did not see each other again
i've been processing my experiences growing as a person this past year. growing in personal connections and growing in love. i'm still growing.

Why were we created with the need for another mortal?
Another mortal as foolish as we are...
To play the part of god and try to answer questions is to walk the trail that leads to madness...
Sophie Mar 2019
I have come to be the jest
The rich and proud say I'm the best
I have come to give you rest
Prepare your hearts
A place to nest
I have come so take your shot
Aim and press
Inside I cry
Outside I smile
Isn't that what is expected from a clown?
