To be a piece of paper
Thrown at sea,
Crumpled—furiously
Unable to be.

To row against
Undaunted waves,
Tall as mountains,
Jagged as nails.

Oh, to wish
To greet the sand,
Just to meet
Some reader's hands.

Ever closed your eyes
and wondered
‘Is this really my reality?’
I always do it, it seems so surprising to me that this is my actual life, and I have to keep living like this till I die and I’m not just gonna stay a teen forever

Everything's wrong
But I know it's not
The future is happening
How can I make it stop?
I'm scared to death
I'm scared to live
I hate myself
I take a breath
Look in the mirror
I bite my tongue
I feel the fear
Plunge so deep
Even before it comes
Anxiety keeps me
From climbing the steep

They say it plain, no second thought,
Like it’s a fact, like it’s not wrong.
A simple phrase, so quick, so small,
Yet somehow, it says it all.

They laugh it off, pretend it’s light,
While I pretend that I’m alright.
I smile, I nod, play along,
But inside, it feels so wrong.

They move on, but it stays with me,
Their words now all I seem to see.
A passing joke, but not to me—
Their words, my mirror, my enemy.
some people just say things without thinking wether it would hurt the other ones feelings.

I don't want to be like her
I want to be myself
and loved like she is
I'm bored and avoiding homework so I'm writing random stuff

I miss hearing your voice
it fills my heart
I miss my heart
full of
you
I hope you’re
full of
you

I fell in love

As did you

I clung too tightly

As did you

I dreamt of a forever

As did you

I swore to keep it strong

As did you

I tried to make it better

As did you

I sat there crying alone

As did you

So let us try to be friends

Maybe try again

Back to when it began

Before I fell in love

Before you did too

Because one day around the bend

Maybe twenty years from now

I think I'll say I loved you

You'll say you loved me too

Maybe we'll just stay friends

Or get married in distant years

Cuz I can say I fell in love

And as did you
sometimes you just need to try again
