Break Time
Rj Feb 2016
Dear friends,
I fear that is site is a catalyst
Of negativite emotions
And I fear as of now
It brings out the worst in me
I also fear it distracts me
From the most important things
Going on right in front of me
So I think I am going to take a break
For a while,
And I wish you all the best of luck

Prayer of Sorts
Rj Feb 2016
Dear God,
IF he won't be a good husband when we leave
Please please please
Let him hurt me
So then I'll know to tell someone
I don't mind God
I can take anything he throws at me
(Literally)
So if he won't be a good husband,
Please let this happen to me
I'll be the one to get her out and to get him help
I still love him. But I need to protect my mom and if this happens I know what to do

We all sang loudly
Bass was heavy
Speeding to the city

Leakage
Rj Feb 2016
The numbness has begun to fade
And now I descend into panic
As every single ******* thing
I've been through and never told
Every single thing I never
Had the chance to cry about
Every single ******* thing
I've held in since I was six
Is bursting at my seams,
And no amount of stitches
Can keep it from leaking out
Feb 2016 · 421
Untitled
Rj Feb 2016
I am beaten down, worn out, utterly emotionally and mentally exhausted
And a giant weight sits on my shoulders that I carry around all the time
A choice I have to make. Do I break what's already broken, or leave it to break others

Conversations
Rj Feb 2016
This conversation will determine the outcome of not only my life,
But of my sisters, and mainly my mothers as well,
And I don't know how comfortable I am in saying what needs to be said
But sister, mother, I'd say it in a heartbeat for you
Mom and I will have a talk soon. I need to know the truth.

Lying
Rj Feb 2016
What do I do?*
I know what would happen
If I told you the truth
And boy I do hate lying
But lying is the only way to keep the family together even though we aren't really all that together.

Thank you for caring so much about me Rodriguez.

Mother
Rj Feb 2016
I cannot express the extent of my sorrow
Knowing you will remain trapped
I'm so so sorry. I know we will be free, but you, you will always be trapped with him.

Unsafe
Rj Feb 2016
I text my mom asking her if I should go in there and tear him apart with words so truthful it'd leave him speechless
And then she says no, and I realize she's right
I'd be too scared of what he'd do to me afterwards.
Don't worry he didn't do anything physical. IF I were to go off on his *** then I'd have to worry for my safety and with her not here it would truly be a nightmare so I hold my tongue

Rj Feb 2016
Every single part of my body
Shakes vigorously with
Anger, sadness, depression
My hands tremble aggressively
And I put my shirt in my mouth
So he won't hear me scream
******* and what you did to us
And I lay half naked on the floor
Of my locked room sobbing violently
When is it too much to handle

Strong

Life Cheated You
Rj Feb 2016
You want to say someone cheated you,
Find just one person to blame
But there are too many, including yourself
So you just say life cheated you instead

Part of Me
Rj Feb 2016
Part of me is an angsty teenage girl
Who wants to get ****** up and smoke cigarettes
And drive late at night, wearing dark clothing
Part of me is a vibrant young woman
Who wants to paint pictures of the sun
Wear rainbow bandanas and smile all the time
It all just depends on the circumstance

Just a Game
Rj Feb 2016
When you see me crying
Why do you turn away
When I feel like dying
Why do you want to play
When I tell you I'm not fine
Why don't you really worry
When you see me in the hall
Why are you always in a hurry
When I tell you why I'm in pain
Why to you is it just a game

Nosedive
Rj Feb 2016
When the plane seems like it's nosediving
And you can't gain control
When the future worries you
Because of the past
Just shrug and smile and know
That few as they are,
There are people that truly care

How sad it is to remember the sick feeling you got
When you felt their hand in places it shouldn't have gone
And you didn't have the heart to say no louder

Hurting Others
Rj Jan 2016
There is also a moment when you realize they are not the one being hurt by others
The only thing hurting them was themselves
Whereas with you, well, all along, they were the one hurting you
The "you" is me
Jan 2016 · 465
For My Saftey
Rj Jan 2016
There's a point when the welfare of others begins to take its toll on you
When the wellbeing of someone is more important than yourself

You have to love yourself enough to stop
You have to love yourself enough to say no
You have to love yourself enough to realize
It was hurting you, and the whole time it wasn't okay
You have to love yourself enough to move on
Jan 2016 · 303
Lifeless
Rj Jan 2016
Only at that moment were my eyes hollow, empty
If you were to look inside you would have seen nothing
Only at that moment did I ever feel lifeless
No more

Conscience
Rj Jan 2016
My eyes didn't close
And my mind was screaming

Waiting for the right person
Is better than getting stuck with the wrong one
Yeah that hurt my feelings. But, tbh I think I'm in a better position that you. Not having an active love life doesn't have to be bad. It's better than having an actively negative abusive one.

A beautiful experience today

Not
Rj Jan 2016
Not
I'm not this emotional, depressed girl
Not a suicidal sorrowful girl either
I'm a girl who is dealing with my past
The best I can, and maybe my past isn't that bad
Maybe it's not something to dwell on
All I know is that it's affected me
And I'm dealing with it one way or another
Idk sometimes I think my past isn't all "that bad" and that I've had a normal life, but then again I mean from what I hear people tell me the things I've been through aren't really normal. How am I supposed to know idk. Maybe I'm sad and affected for no reason, maybe what's happened is normal after all and I'm just pitifully not coping with it. I really have no idea and it bothers me.

Preoccupied
Rj Jan 2016
And I haven't gone to bed early since the beginning of this year
Something keeps me up, something keeps me stirring
My hands move nervously like they do before an exam
Something has me stressed, something has me thinking
Something is on my mind
Jan 2016 · 294
Sad
Rj Jan 2016
Sad
I am sad
I am so so sad
So pitifully sad
I should go to bed it's just getting worse and nothing is even happening how pitiful.

Hourglass
Rj Jan 2016
She motioned the outline of an hourglass, a particularly curvy one
And said, "you're supposed to look like this"
And I thought to myself, *that way of thinking is just the problem
stop reinforcing body norms

Puppy
Rj Jan 2016
You somehow thought that you could use our friendship,
Our friendship I had given a lot up for,
To tell others, in essence, how I was wrapped around your finger
And if you like the feeling of someone following you around
I would suggest buying a puppy
I normally don't sub poem, but you know what. I'm kind of hurt so I'm going to use this account for what is should be used for, that is getting out my feelings.
Jan 2016 · 299
Wrapped
Rj Jan 2016
I don't allow myself to get wrapped around others fingers
I just sit in the palm of their hand, give them what I can give
Sometimes it's enough. Sometimes it's not.
You live and you learn

Despite
Rj Jan 2016
Despite all of the complaints and warnings and emotional distress
I did the right thing. I was there.
And yet this still happened despite the warnings. Maybe I shouldn't be so nice

Now Watch Me...

We fill the air with useless words
Filling the empty space,
Minds and hearts yearning to fill the void themselves
But we don't oh well lol

Grace
Rj Jan 2016
I'm on my knees
only memories
are left for me to hold

Don't know how
but Ill get by
Slowly pull myself together

Theres no escape
So keep me safe
This feels so unreal

Nothing comes easily
Fill this empty space
Nothing is like it seems
Turn my grief to grace

I feel the cold
Loneliness unfold
Like from another world

Come what may
I wont fade away
But I know I might change
By the cast of greys anatomy. This song gives me goosebumps every ******* time

Can't Stop
Rj Jan 2016
No I never get used to silence
But I don't hear, no, I don't hear, I don't hear you anymore.
I know I had to look hard to find it
Everything, everything, everything is gone.

Apology to Mom
Rj Jan 2016
The older I get
The less you seem to like me
And I'm sorry I didn't turn out
Right to you
I'm sorry I was the rotten kid
Out of the patch of healthy ones to you
I'm sorry I don't like dressing up
I'm sorry I have opinions
I'm sorry I have a loud voice
I'm sorry my laugh bothers you
I'm sorry I'm not funny to you
I'm sorry nothing I do impresses you
I'm sorry I wasn't a better kid
I'm sorry I'm not better now
I'm sorry I'm not who you wanted me to be
I'm sorry

Bad Dreams and Bad Feelings
Rj Jan 2016
It's a feeling that spread across my whole body down from my gut to my fingers
Leaving me feeling horribly violated
And badly shaken
And I can't control it

Too
Rj Jan 2016
Too
I'm too flaky
I'm too competitive
I'm too forgiving
I'm too self deprecating
I'm too bent in the past
And too focused on the future
I'm too uncommitted
I'm too scared, worried, nervous
I'm not worth your time
Not with so many "too's"

The Story
Rj Jan 2016
You see the smile that's on my mouth
It's hiding the words that don't come out
And all of my friends who think that I'm blessed
They don't know my head is a mess
No, they don't know who I really am
And they don't know what I've been through like you do
And I was made for you...

All of these lines across my face
Tell you the story of who I am
So many stories of where I've been
And how I got to where I am
But these stories don't mean anything
When you've got no one to tell them to
It's true... I was made for you
//Brandi Carlile
Also a song from a beautiful episode of Greys Anatomy

Sagittarius
Rj Jan 2016
Maybe I am flaky
I don't really know
But maybe I'm flaky
Because I'm waiting
For the right person
To make me
*Want to stay
I know this is a word used to describe Sags sometimes so that's why that's the title

New Year
Rj Jan 2016
The title of a predetermined holiday
Won't magically change things
*It's up to me, you, us to do that
Just a reminder that the new year isn't going to make a difference in your or my life, it's what you and I do with the new year that makes a difference
