To all the friends I lost along the way
It was you who shaped me into who I am today

You made me happy and when you left I was sad
But now I look back on you, I don't think our parting was so bad

You left a legacy within me
And now I can become who I'm meant to be

I couldn't have done so without you
And I hope you think the same too

Our paths may never cross again
But since I met you my life has never been the same

And now I wonder where you are
And I hope that from where we met you have traveled far

I know that you are changing people's lives
And so I search into my heart archives

And there I find the love I used to feel for you
And then I see a light, a tiny spark of blue

The love is still alive because of all you've done
And so I search for another special someone

To take a place in my heart
But there is still a small locked up part

Where the spark of love I have for you
Can never die and never bloom

Until the day that we may meet again
Whether on earth or in heaven

Now I sign this letter and say
I love you! To all the friends I lost along the way.
We are critical.

We find flaws in
everything we see
because nobody
wants to write
about perfection,
even though sometimes
we wish we could just stay
staring into that
unblemished surface.

2. We are never satisfied.

We live our lives upon
mountains of
scrunched up
bits of refill and
ideas we gave up
trying to
express.

3. We never forget.

We write words about
eye contact made
three months ago
that we replay over
and over in our minds
even though it
stopped
being relevant.

4. We are fickle.**

Our emotions flash
from one
to the other
like strobe lighting that
disorientates us
until we feel as if
the world
will never be still.

5. We are exposed.

We don't know how
to keep our feelings
to ourselves so
we'll write them
down for
you to find
'accidentally'.

6. We are vulnerable.

We wear our
hearts on our sleeves
and won't lift a
muscle to fight back
if somebody tries
to break it
because we thrive
from the pain.

7. We will never stop.

We will never stop
feeling and
we will never stop
hurting,
we will never stop
breaking and
bleeding and
loving
even though the cycle
is endless
and we know what's
coming next.


We are addicted
to agony,
but we agonise
for the art.
It's worth it though.
today
I decided to stop talking
to see if anyone
really wanted to talk to me
or if I was just forcing myself
upon them
and I realized
as I sat in silence
that my words
are worthless
and always have been

yesterday
I screamed out loud
and no sound came out
but I felt
the inside of my mouth
rip apart
and I didn't cry

tomorrow
I went to the beach
with words in my pockets
weighing them down
like tiny stones
and I went for a swim
and let the words
pull me down
and let the water
fill my lungs
and I screamed
again

it made no sound
i am 18 years old and i've kissed 17 boys. i've passed 16 classes, and cried at school 15 times. sophomore year i missed 14 days of school. i've figured out 13 ways to say "i didn't do my homework," and i am halfway through the 12th grade. my longest relationship lasted 11 months. i once left a picture up for 10 minutes, and received 9 comments about how unacceptable my shirt was. i have gone through 8 best friends and 7 phones. i've gotten lost on the road 6 times and i have 5 friends i plan to keep in touch with for the rest of my life. at my first job, i made $4 an hour. i've fallen in love 3 times, i've seen two therapists and i'm still holding on to this one thought that everything is going to be okay.
everything is going to be okay.
I become a ***** when I sense things ending
I get this itch and my heart starts bending
So I’m mean to avoid the pain
And I’m sad to get rid of the shame
I’m trying so hard not to be hurt
That you were leaving without an alert
But I know it’s better to give you a reason
Friends seem to change with the season
Words that could bring fruits
And words that could bring poison
What kind of poison have I brought to you
They were sugarcoated poisons that sought to be fruits
Kept feeding you on this
However clueless can you be
You've grown fat with all this sugar
You took surprise and anger when you found out
I laughed at how long it took
Now you're dying from the poison
And the fruits lay near rotting
Rain
Though it seems gloomy at first
But the cold weather just suits the atmosphere
To make the outside a bit quiet
And make me feel so calm
when you no longer
give me flowers
my heart began inking
roses
McDonalds didn't make you fat
You did that! Guns didn't magically fly in mid air and pop you in the ***! You did not accidentally cheat on your significant other
You don't trip and fall into the arms of another! Your race is not accountable for your big mistakes, Obama is not responsible for your electric bill nor is the Muslim population for the many killed. Pets don't have the natural instinct to behave it's lousy owners who don't know how to keep an animal trained.
Please stop with these pathetic blames and grow a brain.
PS: the top sentence refers to people who sue McDonald's for making them fat when they had the choice not to eat there!
