imperfect
Sabrina Dec 2018
She'll be with him longer
Than I was
She'll give him better memories
With a hand to hold
I wasn't good enough
Not the perfect girl
and I can't
bear that

come back
Sabrina Dec 2018
sometimes i think of the good days
when we were together
but then i remember
you left me for someone else
and i guess
we werent made for eachother

I'm
strong
enough
but
sometimes i wish for just
someone to love
and for them to love me back
perhaps
thats too much though

Sabrina Dec 2018
I fall for those who are too good for me
Those who deserve better
Someone who deserves a beautiful, happy, girl
I'm not that
I fall for those who are better than me
I hope one day they'd love me
I've been lied to and left
My emotions left unkept
It's to the point where I've swept up all of the tears of the past
That keep coming back to the present
Nothing ever lasts
I just want someones hand to hold
Perhaps I'm being too bold
I know I'm young,
I know I'm dumb,
but this loneliness is eating me alive
Those drawings aren't real guys
The real ones could never look at me in a loving way
Not like he did
So I guess I'll just sit alone
My thoughts wandering all over my mind
Until I find someone who I can call mine
With tears streaming down my cheeks,
My happiness bleak,
I'll keep looking
For the one I seek

Rise
Sabrina Dec 2018
Rise above
It all
Don't let anyone stop you
Not anymore
We won't fall
Let the rage take over you
Show them what you're made of
Show them the strength that's made you go up
Be the person
You've always wanted to be
Show them even though you've been through your own kind of hell,
You're still genuinely smiling.
i had a little lyricy tune i made up in my head and put it into a poem, this doesn't really apply to me but i'm sure it could inspire others :P

Alter Ego
Sabrina Dec 2018
She's got a tongue
Sharp enough to make you hush
She's got the smile
Enough to make you blush
She's got the attitude
To make you go mad in love
She's the girl I wish to be
But I can't bring myself to be
She lives in my head
The girl I want to be
I lie in my bed,
thinking of what could be
She's fearless, strong and gorgeous
With the walk of a cat
Heart of a lion
Hiss of a snake
Breaking but hiding it
Confidence will rise above it
She's the girl I wish to be
But I just can't seem to become it

Goner
Sabrina Nov 2018
Everyone leaves
Even when they promised they never would
So could you just please
Promise me
Not to leave
And have my belief
That you won't go
Be true

Reality
Sabrina Nov 2018
I want to scream
Until this emotional ache goes away
I want to yell your name
And have you tell me everything is okay
But I know that won't happen
Because she's with you

Thinking
Sabrina Nov 2018
I'll sit and watch the sunset
By myself
Wishing you were here
I'll sit and cry alone in the dark
Wishing you could hear
What you have done to me
All the pain and suffering
Took me by the hand, leaded me into wonderland
Just to kick me out
Laugh in my face
Again and again
Why must I think of those who never think of me?
Why must I remember your face so vividly?
If you don't love me then what's the point
I'll try and go on though
Without your hand to hold
Thanks for giving me your heart
Though it was temporary
I'll watch the sunset alone
Cause I can no longer call you my home

Savior
Sabrina Nov 2018
I have this fear
Of not being good enough
Ever since he left
Put my happiness in debt
I'm scared of letting anyone in again
I want you to fall for me just like I fell for you
But in truth, perhaps I'm too broken for you
I don't wanna confess
In case it becomes a mess
So I'll just sit by myself and think about how I'll die silently crying for help

Fears
Sabrina Nov 2018
I'm scared of this world, honestly.
I'm scared of death and ways one can pass, I'm scared of love because if something happens, that heartache will leave yet another scar on my heart.
I'm scared of illnesses, mostly physical ones. I'm scared of my own mind, as sometimes it can get really mean and it scares me.
I'm scared of people, how people can be so cruel and so ill they would commit crimes for satisfaction, or to soothe the anger in their hearts that may have been fueled by an unbearable sadness.
This world is scary, but there are also pros of being here.
Love, family, good food, friends, going out, the smell in the air when a storm is going to arrive, the smell of spring or summer, the scent of autumn or snow.
There are some things in this world that give others peace.
A strange peace, but it puts whatever emotional or physical pain they're feeling to rest for a bit.
A temporary tranquility.
This world is scary, but everything has pros and cons.
We're human.

Dear Future
Sabrina Oct 2018
I don't really expect much anymore
One day my depression will be too strong
It'll be hard for me to move on
I'll have a gun just laying there
My feet will be bare, I won't care
It'll be quick and painless
This depression will end
Because I'm tired of bending
I'm tired of trying to feel good about myself
So whether it be with a noose,
My body floating lifelessly with a rope tight around my neck
Color drained from my face and body
Whether it be from a jump from a building
The pressure of the air making my lungs feel like they're collapsing
The pressure making me light-headed
As I watch the sky and eventually drop,
One day, our hearts will stop.
One day, my mind will leave me be and let me think happy
Though I doubt that will happen,
As I will never be good enough
So dear future me,
I'm sorry if you got hurt again.
Here's the current plans,
As for now,
I'm trying to make myself feel alive again.

Questions
Sabrina Oct 2018
What does it feel like?
It feels like you're numb
You don't feel anything emotionally
But at the same time you do
The numb feeling brings you depression and exhaustion
Tears refuse to fall, though
What does it feel like?
It feels like your head is heavy and clouded
Busy with thoughts
Your sane side is screaming at it to make it stop
At that point, you want to die just for it to end
What does it feel like?
It feels like I could let my head fall backwards, draping over my chair
And I could stare at the ceiling
Without feeling boredom, nor entertainment
I'd feel nothing
What does it feel like?
It feels like you wanting to sleep until that little episode goes away
Hopefully happiness finds its way into your mind again
Why do you think about death?
In truth,
None of us really want to die
We simply want this emotional and mental pain to end.

Medicine
Sabrina Oct 2018
I'm so ******* sorry
I'm like this
I don't mean to hurt you
But I'm scared of you hurting yourself
I know what the research says
But I'm still scared
I value our friendship
I don't know why
But I can't lose you
Why are you so important to me
I'm trying to sort out all the reasons
But I just can't seem to find a reasonable answer
My mind is eating me alive
Without those meds of mine
I'm dying inside
I shouldn't rely on it but it's the only thing keeping me sane
Without them, my mind and my brain start to hate me
Make me think cruel thoughts and snap at others who I love
I'm sorry I'm like this
But please,
Just don't ******* go.
I can't lose another.

Bittersweet
Sabrina Oct 2018
I hate you so much
The way you led me to believe you'd stay with me
Forever
But your voice makes me warm
I hate you
For the way you basically cheated on me because you couldn't be patient
But your laugh brings back memories
I hate you
For hurting me so bad I'm now just as possessive as you are
Because now I'm too scared to lose someone else
But doing simple things we haven't done in a while together makes me happy
I hate you so much
For scaring my heart
Making me always see you in someone else
I hate you so much
But please, love me again.
Though I'll refuse to love you back.

lil poem
Sabrina Oct 2018
I think the saddest part
Is that no matter who it is
She will always see parts of him in them
And fear falling

Sabrina Oct 2018
I hate seeing others happy
Perhaps it's because I feel like I cannot have that
Perhaps it's because I've had it once before
But I was left in the fog
Trying to find my way alone
I hate seeing others in love
Maybe it's because I've experienced it once before
But my heart was broken
and it's slowly recovering
short.

A Thank You
Sabrina Oct 2018
I wish I had never met you
But at the same time, you taught me things
Don't trust others easy
Don't let them in easy
You left my stomach feeling queasy
Uneasy for a week
Making my heart feel bleak
I kept trying to seek your approval
Your love and your heart
Though you didn't want me anymore
So I just fell apart
You said you loved me from the start
You said it too easily though,
Then took it all back at the end
That's what tore me apart
We'd talk about our future together
Late at night when we should be sleeping
But now I lay awake in my bed at night
Alone and weeping
You were so far away so it's not like I could make you want me
She could give you something I couldn't
I wish I had never met you
But thank you for everything you had taught me.
Oct 2018 · 347
I'm not her
Sabrina Oct 2018
It just kinda hurts
Just a little bit
The way you told me all these things
For months on end
We would sit up in bed
And instead of sleeping
We'd talk about our future together instead
You were far away though, so I couldn't give you what you needed
She swept you off your feet
By being able to hear your heartbeat
That was something I couldn't do,
Unless you had patience
So because you fell for her all because she could give you 1 thing I couldn't
It made me feel like I wasn't enough
I shouldn't have expected it to last, though
Your words were too sweet and you confessed too easy
The summer nights were always a bit too breezy
So as I watched you walk away
Your heart pounding for her instead
My once heart full of love sways away
Leaving me feeling far too empty
With tears streaming down my eyes, and my screams filling my head
I'll forever lay in bed and think about all the words you'd said

Pretty Dolly.
Sabrina Oct 2018
Pretty Dolly,
Pretty Dolly,
That's what they called her.
She'd run around in her white gown,
thinking no one could touch her.
Pretty Dolly,
Pretty Dolly,
That's what she'd heard.
As all the people around town tried to control her
Didn't even exist, but people could see her
Her non-existent heart wrenched as she watched people around her.
Pretty Dolly,
Pretty Dolly,
That's what she'd seen.
Figured she'd put them all out of their misery,
Red splattering her gown,
As they bowed down like she were their queen.
She was the talk of town,
As she ran around
Now that she knew she could only be seen
By those who weren't sane in the brain
How cruel of this world to be so mean
Pretty Dolly,
Pretty Dolly,
That's what they called her.
Her white gown turning brown from the dirt of the world around her
Pretty Dolly,
Pretty Dolly,
Just a ghost of what those who wanted help wanted.
A cruel reality-check,
They were all haunted.
Pretty Dolly,
Pretty Dolly,
That's what she'd been seen as
Her ghostly form
She showed no remorse
As she left them in the dirt
Pretty Dolly,
Pretty Dolly.
I don't know what this is tbh, figured it had a nice catch to it, so I wrote.

please.
Sabrina Oct 2018
give me a reason to keep holding onto it
give me a reason not to lose hope
give me a reason to keep my patience
give me a reason to keep trying to stop these cruel thoughts
cause I'm starting to find it difficult to find any more.

Peace &
Sabrina Sep 2018
Maybe if I was dead they'd listen
They'd understand just a little bit more
So by tears pouring down and me wearing a constant frown,
Tears welling up in my eyes and I want to say goodbye
To have peace and tranquility
I often can't vent to others, as it will turn into the same line over and over
Almost like a stutter
Get this voice out of my head
This monster controlling my mind
Making me blind to the goodness of the one who claims they love me
Blinding me with words others have said from my past
And at last it swallows me whole
A hole in my heart
Tearing me apart
I often just want to feel at peace
My mind at ease
But that feels impossible
As this world is difficult to please.
Put my mind to ease,
A gun to my head
My depression forcing this black hole to get bigger and bigger
Take off the safety and pull the trigger.

Tranquility.

I simply cannot express myself any other way,
I can only do so with a puddle of ink on my paper day by day.
The words don't flow as easily with a pen and paper sitting in front of me
It'll take too long for me to write.
I simply cannot tell you how I feel naturally
My anxiety stops me, my fears stop me, and I hesitate or choke on my own words.
So if you could just please understand that I express myself with writing or songs,
Then maybe you and I would get along.
Just a little more.
I know you care and I know you wanna help,
but how can you help me when you're too busy ignoring me?!
I live in fear of loving and trusting others,
Always doubting those who confess to me because anyone who ever has done that,
has left.
Perhaps I just wasn't good enough or maybe it was just me in general, perhaps it could've been them as well but either way I'm tired.
So please just ******* love me, please ******* understand that you're not the only ******* one who needs help.
I do too.
Please.
Hold me, please.

Atelophobia
Sabrina Sep 2018
Get out of my head
Please
Stop ruining my life
Creating up little lies and scenarios
Forcing me to believe them.
Atelophobia along with my anxiety and depression that controls my everyday life.
I depend on that one small pill to keep me happy and sane
My brain is so ****** up that I cry for no good reason without it.
I miss one day, and I break.
No reason for me to snap, no reason for me to cry, no one can tell me why I randomly developed this mental issue that runs my whole life.
Let me love someone for once without being doubtful.
Let me love someone without a fear of being thrown out.
But maybe it's just trying to protect me,
So that I don't get any worse.
Get out of my head.

Ditch
Sabrina Sep 2018
I honestly feel like I'm falling
My trust issues choking me
Like a noose tight around my neck
As I watch all those around me,
Falling deeper and deeper into a depth of love
A depth that I crawled out of after being thrown out
Just barely alive.
I'll look down at them, watching the ones who survive
Marry.
And the unlucky ones, such as I, who were tossed out.
I'll grab their hand to pull them up.
With a shy whisper,
"I know."
Tears will run down my cheeks as that rope that was once a noose becomes chains.
My trust for others disintegrating,
and my doubt increasing like a hummingbirds hunger.
I don't lose hope.
Maybe, maybe just one day.
The chains will be unlocked.
And I'll learn how to trust someone again,
as I also learn to trust myself with another ones heart.

— The End —
