Worthless
Rosalind Apr 2016
Worthless
That word always seemed to have stuck to me,
It was the word I scribbled in my notebook,
It was who I though I was; who'd I always be.

I lived by that word for almost four years,
Four years filled with regret sadness and hate,
Four ******, starving years.

That word was part of my being,
It was my virtue,
My rhythm and my rhyme.

There was a time when I did the silliest thing,
I let words cut me deep,
Worthless was a gaping cut into me.

That word I've always resented; but somehow respected,
I fed it power and let it host on me,
I gave the word life and it destroyed me.

I went along with life and the Worthless never faded,
It left me with a life that was jaded,
All I saw was grey.

I look back at myself, then back here again.
Now look at me I've lost all my friends.
All I have is a string, with no knot at the end.

I suppose worthless will never leave me,
It'll always stick around in the silence as company.
I just remind myself that I can do much; but I can surely try.

I'll wipe my own tears when I'm alone to cry,
I'll scrape myself off the ***** ground,
I'll always keep moving; no matter what's stopping me.

I'm Rosalind, and I'm ******* proud.
I won't have a word **** me from the inside out.
I've come so far to give up now.

So come worthless; feast on me.
**** the marrow out of my bones.
I wont go down easy.
Stay Posivite! NEVER GIVE UP! YOU'RE WORTH IT!

Cheater
Rosalind Jan 2016
Cheating is a losers game.
It buys you the most infamous of fame.
You're hands are soft, but your heart is too cold.
Lies after lies, what will become of you if all this was to be unfold?
Do you not feel any remorse; or a tiny fragment of guilt?
Just like those dozens of flowers, your charm will wilt.

My Prince
Rosalind Jan 2016
I remember, sitting in my room at night.
I was dreaming; waiting for my valiant knight.

He'd surely sweep me off my feet, and hold me tight.
Amongst this dark world; he'd be my light.

He'd write me the most beautiful letters, that I've ever received.
Together; there would be so much that we could achieve.

But I waited; I waited for so long.
Waiting and hoping that my prince would come.

He never did, he must have forgotten about his princess to be.
Maybe he found another girl; one who isn't me.

I won't go to any *****, or have an elegant gown.
I'll stay here, in my quaint, little, boring town.

I'll forever stay a pauper, he: forever a prince.
Because of those days; I've never believed a fairy tail since.

Vulnerable
Rosalind Oct 2015
You hold my fragile heart,
In the palms of your hands.
What will you do with it?
Will you be disgusted by it?
Will you treasure it?
That I cannot tell,
Only the future can.

One
Rosalind Oct 2015
One
One is in love,
While the other one lies,
The two kiss,
Saying the same they reply,
"I love you."

One loves wholeheartedly,
The other one lies,
Together they stay,
side by side.

One starts to break,
The other one cries,
Realizing everything,
It all was a lie.

Ones heart breaks,
The other carries on,
They knew one thing,
It would never last long.

One has forgotten,
The other still pines,
They'll never see each other,
They were of different kinds.

Greed
Rosalind Aug 2015
You're killing it,
Making a million from it,
But you've got no one,
And that you can't hide.

— The End —
