My heart was yours.
You might have never wanted it
But it wanted you more than
Than anything it’s ever felt.
You knew it was fragile,
But you dropped it from
A million miles above the
Earth's surface.
It shattered,
But still wants you.
You drown in the dark sea
Filled with creatures.
It barely beats,
But it still wants you.
Haven’t you realized?
You’re the key to my heart.

I've recently made a new friend.
She's tall, skinny, and beautiful.
She's everything I've ever wanted to be.
Last night as I was looking in the mirror
and she whispered into my ear
that she knows how to make me pretty.
I agreed to her plan.
She asked for my name and she replied
with her name in return.
Ana...
So familiar, where have I heard it before?

They all say i'm happy,
that my smile proves it.
I'm not going to lie...
its true.
Im happy...
happier than i've been the past 3 years,
but I remember.
I remember when I couldn't go a day
without a single cut
because if not...
I'd forget how to breathe.
I remember everyone said,
its because im young,
but it's not.
It brought me comfort,
and soon what felt like love.
The funny things is...
I forgot about all that.
Until I was laying in bed last night,
and forgot how to breathe again.

Im typically good with words,
But today they twine together
Unwelcoming me.
Blocking my thoughts
Letting this poem actually defeat me.
Im typically good with words,
But today the clouds above my head
Aren't their normal color.
Today they aren't consumed with
White, wheat, nor wisteria.
Only grey swirls are seen
When my eyes flicker up.
Im typically good with words,
But that was before
I was introduced you
And this crazy world.

I hate the way you smile at the stupidest things
like those horrible jokes,
but for some odd reason I smile too.
I hate the fact that sometimes you never shut up,
then all at once you go silent.
Just like the moon does when the sun rises.
But most of all I hate that you're you.
Everything about you
made my heart carelessly start to care for you.
Now im torn between
LOVING and HATING
you...

Maybe we’re another version of Romeo and Juliet
Then again...maybe not.
I,Juliet, have fallen madly in love with my one and only Romeo.
But Romeo had another plan of his own.
He was just an actor looking for a staring roll.
And I was the perfect fit for a backup character that no one would ever know.
Maybe that’s all we’ll ever be
A fake Romeo and A broken Juliet never really meant to be.

My dad wonders around this world with pride,
since day one of my life.
He jokes around with a silly language
that none other shall understand.
He created his own world that I have yet to see,
but he lies.
He's not the guy he claims to be.
He says he love me, but I can see through his brown eyes.
He doesn't see me clearly.
He throws me hurtful words that destroy me.
Sometimes i'm not enough to make him happy,
and i'll never will be.
For i'm just a daughter that came into his life
a little to early.
