You tell me everything I want to hear
And I want it, I want your words so bad

Every fiber of my insecurities tell me
That You're selling me snake oil
And I'm buying in bulk

Everything tells me that no matter
How honest I am with you,
I still feel like I'm lying.
Is it wrong to enjoy someone
Thinking You're beautiful?

My head tells me humility
Is the same as cutting something
Out entirely even though it'll save
Your life
Because it's not worth saving.

My head tells me that It's
Impossible for someone to
Give me a compliment
Because they simply only see
What I'm showing them.

My head tells me I'm not
A good person, I'm just pretending.

I still need to find this off switch.
I can't even take myself seriously when writing about stuff like this.

Stop setting yourself on fire for people who will sit back and watch you burn.

I always score so much better on Words With Friends when I'm ******
I don't know what to do with that

Please.
I begged you not to.
So many times.
But darling, so stubborn,
So naive, like a movie,
A romantic comedy,
You fell in love with me.

15 & Naive

When you told me you loved me
I believed every word said
Love struck on hope
Dreaming of the best

I thought you'd stand by me
I thought that you cared
I thought we'd kiss passionately
I had no reason to be scared

Then I saw you with her
Looking deep into her eyes
Telling her your feelings
Telling her your lies

I suppose I was naive
15 and insecure
You never even gave
My feelings a second thought

It's just like they say
In time you'll find the one
I used to think that was you
But for now, I'm done

i was naive enough
to think that everything
would be better
i really
truly
believed
that things would go
my way
