Shadows are what haunt me.
Late at night,
when they cannot be seen.
Shadows are what haunt me.
Early in the morning,
when they stretch long.
Shadows are what haunt me.
Not the kind that can be seen.
Shadows are what haunt me,
my past,
and my future.

Innocent girl,
afraid of the world.
They have no idea what goes on in your mind.

They can't see the cuts.
They can't hear your thoughts.
They can't see you're at war with yourself.

"You're too good."
"You'd never do wrong."
"You're so innocent."

They can't see you're dying.
They can't hearing your crying.
They can't hear you screaming for help.

Innocent girl,
when will you tell the world,
about the pain you feel.

They don't believe you could hurt,
They don't believe you could bleed,
They are sickened by your "perfection".

"You've never been depressed."
"You're mind is so clear."
"You've never known struggle."

Innocent girl,
when will you show the world,
the scars you have from losing your mind.

Wont you?
I need you.
Please stay
Don't leave now.
They all leave.
I thought you'd stay

In
Out.
Inhale,
Exhale.
Watch it fog up windows,.
Watch it go from your mouth and nose
on a cold winter day.
In,
Out.
Inhale,
Exhale.
Breathe
We need to breath.

i use a fake smile
I hide in stories and poems
I get sad easily.
if you think i'm gonna change for you
you're WRONG
Im. Not. Like. Them.

The funny thing is,
is that my addiction isn't
****, *******, or alcohol.
My addiction is something much worse.
My addiction is Y-O-U.

they say a dream
can have a meaning.
That recurring dreams
try to send you a message.
But what if the dream
happens to be nightmare?
What does that mean?
