So where are you from?
The teacher asked me,
No greeting,
Nothing.
Just those five words.
As I stared blankly, shocked.
Are you Korean or Japanese?
Do you speak chinese?
You must be really good at math.
It's majority rules not minority rules.
Go back to where you came from.

I am from china.
I do not speak the language.
I ******* **** at math,
I was adopted.
And Im right where I'm supposed
To be.

Why do we expect love to make us whole
When more often than not
It leaves us more broken than before

Everything was black and white,
And then I saw you in colour.

If I ever saw you again
I would say
I'm sorry.
For everything that I've done.
But since I know I won't
I'll just scatter the words
In poems that I know
You'll never read.

Here lies the memory of a girl
Who used to have a heart of gold
Who was filled with warmth and happiness
Until the world went and made her cold.
Here lies the memory of a girl
Who heard music and sang along
But now she lays vacant with tears in her eyes
When she hears that exact same song.
Here lies the memory of a girl
Who wished upon the stars
But instead of counting wishes
She now spends her nights counting her scars.
Here lies the memory of a girl
Who would play in the rain,
And now she spends that time using it
To wash away the pain.
Here lies the memory of a girl  
Who didn't guard her heart
But who now has 6 inch steel walls
To keep it from falling apart.
Here lies the memory of a girl  
Who believed in happy endings
Who's heart is now broken
One she's constantly mending.
Here lies the memory of a girl  
Who is now dead,
Who paints art on her skin with needles
Replaced by the demons in her head.

I want to remind you of the sun,
Its light will come again,
And no matter how dark it seems to get
The darkness always ends.
And I know it may seem impossible
Like it will forever go on
But I'm telling you the darkest hour
Is just before the dawn.

Please take a breath and hear my words
For they were meant for you,
On the cold and bitter days
That you don't think you can get through.
I want to remind you that this life
May be hard but you are strong,
And anyone who says otherwise
Is straight up wrong.
I want to remind you of the sun,
Its light will come again,
And no matter how dark it seems to get
The darkness always ends.
And I know it may seem impossible
Like it will forever go on
But I'm telling you the darkest hour
Is just before the dawn.
Sometimes we fall and need help up
Because we can't do it alone
And if this happens please ask for help
Because I promise you're not on your own.
You've still got mountains to climb
So many things to do and see,
And I promise you it's worth it in the end
I promise you you'll be happy.

You have the power
Of the stars,
Oh hell,
The whole **** universe
Raging inside of you.
And that is how I know
That you will be alright.

You are a drug
I just can't figure out
How to quit.

The harshest words will always be
The ones left
Unspoken

I remember you saying
"Oh I see what game you're playing".
But to me, it was never a game,
But I guess you didn't think the same.

Roses are red, violets are blue,
They say it's addicting now I know that it's true  
But the roses are wilting the flowers are dead  
My hands are shaking and my hips are lined red

Rain is proof that
Sometimes even the strongest things
Need to let things go.

One of the most cruel things
You can do to a person,
Is make them fall
Without meaning to catch them.

She wasn't the kind of person
Who sobbed loudly.
No.
She was the kind of person
Who hid her tears from everyone.
Who cried late at night when
Everyone else was asleep.
Who had to grab her stomach
To hold herself together.
Who silently gasped for air.
Who had no one but the moon
To comfort her

You promised that
When you left you
Wouldn't forget about me,
But darlin did forget
About me
And the saddest part is,
You haven't left yet.

It's not what you said,
But the silence you left
That cut through me
Like a knife.

Remember when we used
To talk all night?
I miss that.

In my dreams you love me too.
In my dreams you never leave.
In my dreams we are happy together.
In reality you are
Gone.

I am a light switch.
Instead of on or off,
It's I love you
Or
I hate you.

I try to chose my words carefully because
One wrong word can change
The whole meaning of the
Cranberry.

How do I keep tripping
Over something that is
So far behind me?

It's funny how you can lose someone
Who was never even yours.

Don't give up on her.
If you give up on her,
She will give up on her too.

You are beautiful,
You are breathtaking
You are quirky,
You are funny,
You are unique,
You are awkward.
You are weird
You are loveable.
You are you,
And you is pretty
Damm spectacular.

No one ever sees the signs until it's
Too late.

Standing late at night,
Your arms wrapped tight around me
It all stopped falling

It was in that moment
In the middle of the street
Late at night,
When my world was falling
Apart that you put
Your arms around me,
And for a second I thought
That maybe everything
Would be okay.

As the butterfly fades
So does my promise.

I used to spend my nights
Talking to you.
Now I spend them alone
Listening to sad music
Reading sad poetry.
Blood dripping down my hands,
Thinking about all the things
I would give to be in
Your arms.

Mirror mirror on the wall
How much longer must I fall?
When will the night fade to day
When will the sadness go away?
When will my house feel like home again
When will all the secrets end?
When will I find someone to love me
When will this life stop being lonely?
I don't know how much more I can take.
My mind's a levee that's starting to break.

Sometimes I get lost.
I want someone to
Help remind me
Of who I really am

I'm not always this
Messed up.
I promise.
I'm not always this
Insecure.
I promise.
I'm not always this
Hard to love.
I promise.
But I will always be there
For you.
I promise.

I just want it all
To go away.

How do I make it
All go away?

I find it interesting
That I write almost nothing
But goodbye poems on
A website called
HELLO Poetry.

They say scared keeps you
Alive.
Maybe that's why I feel so alive
When I'm with you

Roses are red Violets are blue
I don't know if I can make it through
Because the roses are wilting the violets are dead
And nothing will silence the thoughts in my head
The sky isn't clear, the sun no longer shines
The blood in my veins is no longer mine
The days are long and as dark as the night
The thoughts in my head no longer happy and bright.
The tears stream down my face and off of my nose
as I cry in the places no one ever goes.
I want it to stop, I want it to end
I don't think I can go through this again.
I can't help but feel that I'd be better off dead
The roses have wilted the violets are dead.

I'm spiraling so fast
That I can't grab onto
Anything

My life is a game
Of jenga.
The blocks are everything I love
But the tower is falling
So fast.
And the pieces bounce off
Of my hands as I try to catch them.
At the end of the day
I have nothing.

If I had a dollar
For all the times I
Cried myself to sleep
This month.
I'd buy a movie ticket
To the movie we were
Supposed to see together.

My world is falling apart at the seams.
I thought that I had you,
But I guess I stand



Alone.

The moon
Was the only thing
To ever see
Her scars.

I'm sick of pulling the petals
Off of flowers
That you didn't give me,
Trying to figure out
If you like me.

I'm done with
Pulling the petals
Off of flowers.
Trying to figure
Out if you like me,
When I already know
The answer.

She looked death
Right in the face,
Smiled and said
"Not today".
The image of him
Draining away
Along with her stash
Of pills.

Hello Poetry
The only place,
My thoughts
Can roam free.

If you could see yourself
Through my eyes,
You would never again
Question your beauty.

You say that you are insignificant.
When compared to the whole
Of the world,
And the universe.
You say you don't matter.
But darling,
To me, you are my world.
You are my universe.

No matter what time
No matter what life
I will find you,
And our souls can become
One again.

Help me ease
My troubled soul.
