don't tell me
effaced Mar 2015
everyone says that you don't actually need your boyfriend, you just want him.
but i do, i need him.
and tell that to the old woman whose husband just died and she loved her whole life.
and when they pronounce her dead and they say it was 'broken-heart-syndrome' tell her family that the doctors were wrong, that no one can die from an emotionally induced heart break .
i dare you. tell them.
and if you wouldnt tell that old woman, why would you tell me that?
and when i ask you that, don't tell me that its different because its not.
because i love him, just as much as that old woman loved her husband.
and just because she was born in a different time, that their generation was completely different.
and don't tell me that everything will be fine, because it won't.
i won't ever be able to forget him, like i've been able to forget the others from before.
don't tell me it's just a want.

you broke my heart today...

Dear Love,
you broke my heart today,
and even with my tear-stained cheeks i will stay,
and defend you when people talk bad about you
and hope that you will love me again, the way you used to...

Alone by Alex Gross©
effaced Mar 2015
What do you say when you
Are with people? You say you
Want to be alone. What do you say
When you are alone? You say you
Want to be with people.

I'll tell you why that is. It's because
You are never alone. Your thoughts
Are always there. Sometimes you
May welcome them, but other times
They scare you.

You remember things that you don't
Want to. The less you want them there,
The more they stay. They torture you.
They infect your mind like a disease.
The more you tell them to go away,
The more they defy you.

They come in all forms. They're words,
Or they're pictures, maybe moving pictures.
The only sure-fire way to stop this virus, is
To leak a new one. This one must be pleasant.
Just like Peter Pan, you must think happy thoughts.

you vs. me

you say these things
and their not true
sadly you believe them
you truly do.
i see a girl
***** blonde hair,
prettiest girl ive ever seen
if only she had confidence...
if only she saw herself the way that i see her
if only she could hear the thoughts that i think

i say these things
and they're so true
sadly you dont believe them
but i sure as hell do.

ask him to hold me

we were all happy as could be

they just believe its a phase
but the fact that these feelings
have become the norm
is killing our society

boy meets girl
fall in love
live happily ever after.
so... cliché right?
wrong
1 out of ever 2 marriages end in divorce
and
1 out of every 2 marriages have had a spouse cheat..
so when you think happily ever after is cliché, think again.
in 5, 10, 20 years people won't even want to get married.
would you?
knowing that you have a 50% chance of divorcing 'the love of  your life' and even if it doesn't end in divorce there is a 50% chance that you will cheat, or will be cheated on?

ive been in bad places before.
ive been in amazing places before.
and im not really sure where i am right now.
black is my bad, white is my amazing,
and right now all i see and feel is hazy.
of course i see color - those of you who dont understand me-
i see the brown and green of the trees, the yellows and reds of flowers.
the heavenly in-betweens that have no name.
yes i see those but you dont understand what i am trying to convey,
i feel a darkness, and black hole swallowing up, trying to take my existance,
but i feel a lightness, an open-ness, something so calming...
but now? now i am gray.
i cant tell if i feel sad or mad or anything negative,
i cant tell if i feel happy and excited or anything positive.
so i am gray, i am a mix i am in such a strange state.
so i am not sad, and i am not happy.
i just simply am.
and i am okay with this.
i dont have to ask why i am sad,
i dont have to wonder how long i would be happy.
i am simply in between...
i just simply am.

run away
effaced Feb 2015
i will never find the one that i need and want.
i read too many fantasy books, about love and pain.
my expectations are too high...
had my home life been okay, i wouldn't have tried to run away through books.
once you run away through books it's hard to deal with the reality that:
no matter how flawed the characters in your books are, the people in this world will never be as perfect.
i will never find the one that i need and want, my expectations are too high, but for now i can blow this off through school work and reading more.
but one day it will catch up to me, and i will realize that i am old and alone, and i will die that way, broken and sad and, lonely.
