Fell Silent
Rj Apr 2015
This time only three people mumbled the prayer as quietly as they could
Everyone else fell silent

Rj Apr 2015
No one has ever felt the urge to meet my lips

Bruised Knees
Rj Apr 2015
Upon further deep thought I realized how ******* up my childhood was
And I can't help but blame myself for not realizing what I was doing
Of course I am grown now, and realize that doing those things are not healthy. Trust me I am not anything like I was. I was a beautiful free child with a spirited personality with some quirks that are far more messed up than I thought. I didn't even remember them until now.

Overworked
Rj Apr 2015
Overworked they say
Is it true I'm hurting myself
Take a break they say
But I'm already in so far
It'll get worse she says
I can handle it, right. Right?

Each of You
Rj Apr 2015
The thing is, I coud survive without all of you
However, I would have never lived without each of you

Defeat
Rj Apr 2015
I used to see fire in her eyes
Now they hold nothing, defeat
He drags her everywhere
He takes her phone away
He treats her like a child
Therefore she's been trapped
And remains so for us

Faith in Humanity
Rj Apr 2015
My faith in humanity is at a low that's all
People out there getting stuck with people like him
Who wants to spend their life in chains?
I didn't realize there are people just like him forming today

a plea
Rj Apr 2015
please please help me
please show me love is real
anyone. Or is nobody there
I'm a fool for thinking
that someone would dare

Shit Love
Rj Apr 2015
Midnight calls and crying
This is how ****** up love is
It's all the same no?
Someone please show me different
Love is a sick game. Sick. Lies. Is there not one person besides God who can show me that good love exists ?

Subconscious

There is always someone in my subconscious floating around
Hmm

Sunshine
Rj Apr 2015
I just want someone to be a ray of sunshine during these rainy days
And maybe that's supposed to be me

Emotional at Night
Rj Apr 2015
We cast away our emotional bursts
We become so needy at night
And turn it away like a side effect
But what if the depth of solitary
Causes this true want to come out?

Dark Spring
Rj Apr 2015
It's pouring now, but dim
Eerie blue light on my walls
Hum of the fishtank reverberating
Fan is creaking simply slow
My quilt does nothing for cold
But serves to only protect me
I am lonely. I am lonely.

Keep Distance
Rj Apr 2015
maybe its just a phase but
when did I become so distant?
Apr 2015 · 347
Doctor Please
Rj Apr 2015
Doctor run a complete blood test
Something isn't right
Or is it all normal to be in pain?
Or maybe its the thought of a kidney infection ??

Naked
Rj Apr 2015
I have accepted my uncomfortableness
Why am I still so nervous to talk
Someone must have peeled back a layer
And I am only now realizing
I am completely naked and exposed

Blows
Rj Apr 2015
Does it ever just hit you?*
Do you ever cry not because of the physical pain you say you are in
But your mind sends you a quick *reminder?
At a track meet. I cried at a track meet. Even though I was in pain that wasn't the reason for the tears.

Fucking Shit
Rj Apr 2015
I don't think people realize that I just want to be held
Because I'm scared and anxious and nervous and stressed
Please please please please hold me.
It seems as though everyone has someone to hold or be held by
It seems as though when people look for someone to give affection to its never me
*They look the other ******* way and I don't think they know how each time I feel even more unlovable then I already felt

Soaring
Rj Apr 2015
He spread out his arms like an eagle flying
Then I realized we were indeed *soaring
Hang gliding was one of the most fun and freeing things I've ever done.

Hang-gliding
Rj Apr 2015
I was thousands of feet in the air
Soaring over an ocean
Controlling my entire fate
With a simple motion I determined
What happened
And I've never felt more alive

Pretending
Rj Apr 2015
I'd like to pretend I lean in and kiss you
I'd like to pretend I look like her,
I'd like to pretend everyone looks at me
But in reality I'm just a girl in a Steamboat Sweatshirt
With a dorky smile that makes her face wrinkle
Who is ignored more than she'll admit
And still winces slightly when seeing a mirror
But I think I'll go back to pretending
It's much more fun anyways...
Which ***** lol

Cigarettes
Rj Mar 2015
What a feeling to inhale its toxic love
Knowing it's bad but oh so good
Memories and melodies swirl
Like the smoke curling off my lip
With each breath knowing I hurt,
Hurt something clean and pure
Only after letting go of my past
Did I stop breathing the wrong way
A personal note. Letting go of toxicity
Mar 2015 · 593
Watch Me
Rj Mar 2015
You'll see
You will all see.

Spirit
Rj Mar 2015
Finally, my Spirit is restored
And my rebellious wild heart
Is beating furiously alive
You can't take me, I'm free
A play on words if you understand the reference

Alternate Future
Rj Mar 2015
My future is looking me dead in the eye
Daring me to have it alter to my wishes

Take Me Back
Rj Mar 2015
Take me back to the beach last summer
Take me back before everything
Take me back to myself and happiness
Not this distorted form I experience now
Just please please Take. Me. Back.

Superhero
Rj Mar 2015
What happens when you want to be a superhero
Not just this six year old boys fantasy,
But a real hero, who saves people, helps the world
and has something  *special
What a fantasy from a 16 year old girls perspective

Give it Up
Rj Mar 2015
You're telling me to give up my dream
Because of what? Pride? Money? Cost?
Or is it because you think I can't do it.
Not forcfully but subtle hints. I know what you're saying

Fortunate

Take a moment to think about how lucky you are

Darling
Rj Mar 2015
No one should ever feel that way
But darling, feelings like that can go away
You're one for playing it safe
I promise that's what you'll find
And the restraint you use each day
Will become a natural ease of mind
For I will be there to hold you
Not with chains, but with the lock of my eyes
You see, I've fallen for you, it's no surprise
More wind in the sails
Mar 2015 · 364
Baby
Rj Mar 2015
Close your eyes
Take a breath don't change
Put your shaking hand
In mine, and focus
Pupils focused on mine
As if you could see into my mind
And if you could,
Well then you would know
The ache my heart has to
Fix yours
The wind is blowing hard in these sails

Lambert #2
Rj Mar 2015
The care and concern that flooded his eyes when I told him I was hurt was like no other
Letting me skip clas, ride in his golf cart, driving me back and forth, telling me stories
I'm not ashamed to admit he was one of the most caring father figures in my life
I'm not just saying that. Even my friend saw the connection between us, and pointed it out all the time. He really did do all those things for me. I never knew how much I was attached until he decided to leave. I will always remember him.

Pat Lambert
Rj Mar 2015
"I love each and every one of yall immensely, and though I'll be gone you all will live forever in my heart"
He cried and had to pause through saying this. I've never been more touched. I knew I felt a connection to this man when he first told me to run track. He's the one who inspired me and pushed me to do better, and encouraged me to strive for higher goals. And when my legs couldn't take anymore, he made me do more. And now I am who I am and got to this point. I couldn't thank him more.

Nostlgia of Myself
Rj Mar 2015
I know exactly why a wave of nostalgia comes over me when I hear those songs
It was who I was, the real me, and who I am trying desperately to be again

Comfort Love
Rj Mar 2015
It would be nice if someone laid next to me and wrapped their hand around my waist.
I'm not going to beat myself up over the fact no one loves me right now. But it's just a little wish of mine right now
Mar 2015 · 197
Bright
Rj Mar 2015
What's nice is that
the past is the past
It won't happen again,
The future looks bright
And what you did
Once before you won't
Do again... promise

From Experience
Rj Mar 2015
I had to convince her
Don't hurt yourself
Far to precious for it
You don't want that
On your skin forever

No Undo's

Though I appreciate the kindness now
It doesn't fix the damage done then

The Past
Rj Mar 2015
But how pathetic do you feel when everything in the present is fine
But the experiences you locked away in your mind keep reoccurring
