I was once like you.
In some ways I still am.
I'm not saying I can fix you.
Only you can do that.
But I'll hand you the pieces if you know where to put the glue.
But only if you trust me to.
Because I remember when I shattered you.
I promise you that I never intended you to have the pain you felt.
But if a second chance means anything.
I think we both have earned one.

i stared at the empty jar on the kitchen table
that once was full of many things,
valuable things

something that used to be full of worth
now was nothing but a vacant waste of space

it reminded me of myself
and how i used to have so much motivation and worth
but now
im only full of empty nothingness

and oh how i wish someone would come along
and pile some motive into my heart

i contain nothing
i feel nothing
i am nothing

someone make me feel again

Life has loveliness to sell,
All beautiful and splendid things;
Blue waves whitened on a cliff,
Soaring fire that sways and sings,
And children’s faces looking up,
Holding wonder like a cup.

Life has loveliness to sell;
Music like a curve of gold,
Scent of pine trees in the rain,
Eyes that love you, arms that hold,
And, for the Spirit’s still delight,
Holy thoughts that star the night.

Give all you have for loveliness;
Buy it, and never count the cost!
For one white, singing hour of peace
Count many a year of strife well lost;
And for a breath of ecstasy,
Give all you have been, or could be.

do not
feel
scrape the feelings out with a dagger
remove them from your flesh,
and do not feel
do not feel for emotion clouds the
brain.

even the worst villains can appear to be heroes,
all they need is naive citizens to believe their every word.

Teenagers are scientists
They experiment often
And stay up half the night
They analyze the theories of the opposite ***
And try to tell what statement would evoke what reaction

Teenagers are the real scientists
Because when they mix too much stuff together
They are constantly blowing things up
