Always Ally Dec 2014
She dreamed of leaving
But was stuck in a deadbeat town
One day she went outside
The next she was never found
Always Ally Dec 2014
It's not fair
To tell me I burden you
I didn't ask for this
I'm trying my hardest really
Do you think I want this?
Did this on purpose?
I want to be the girl who talks to people without hesitation
To speak my mind
To get up and dance
To not cry when I'm alone
Not be unable to breathe when I feel the slightest bit of social awkwardness
Not be offended by everyones' joke and jab at me
Which usually leads to more crying and hating myself
I don't want to look in the mirror and hate what I see
I don't want you to think I'm off putting because I'm quiet most of the time
I don't hate or dislike you
I hate and dislike me which is why I could never talk to a person like you
I don't want to love feeling second best at everything
I don't want to be treated differently because of my physicality and mentality
I don't want you to leave
I don't want you to feel like you have to fix me
I can't be fixed
Pain is relentless and forever
I stare for long periods of time contemplating my death
But I realize I can hurt the people that hurt me
I am weak
I am sad
I wish I could stop feeling this bad
Always Ally Dec 2014
You can't pull me under when I'm already down
And that gives me a strange feeling of satisfaction
Being at your lowest means only going up or staying where you are
Sadly it's more comfortable to stay sad
Madly easy to stay mad
Bad habit of being bad
Here thinking I was safe
But my mind was never a good place

Can't shut it off but at least I can shut out the world
That's good enough for now
For now all I know
My days are numbered
But if they were cut short
I'd be okay
Know that I'll be okay
It's better for me and you in a way
I didn't ask for any of this
Truth be told I never needed it
Still it found its way to me
It's just my personal tragedy
Always Ally Dec 2014
You're so set on destroying yourself
And there's no place you'll stay
You've pretty much given up
Claiming all you need is space
But I'm afraid you'll float away
Wherever you may be
Gravity,darling, gravity
Won't bring you back to me
Always Ally Nov 2014
The flowers wilted within her heart
Tree leaves fell from her eyes
A river ran through her veins
Stones were overturned in her brain
Sunlight beamed between her teeth
Petals colored her lips
Wind stirred her like a tornado
A beautiful disaster indeed
Always Ally Nov 2014
It was winter
Snow fell
Your lips turned blue

It was spring
It rained
You wore rain boots

It was summer
Sun shined
You swam in the pool

It was fall
Leaves changed
And so did you
Always Ally Nov 2014
Is my heart a petty thing
You are a petty crook
You steal glances at me
My heart is one of many you took

Goodnight used to have luster
When it was shared between our lips
Now you fall to her
Her seductive smile; the curve of her hips

Is my trust a petty thing
Or have I mistook
The truth we shared the lies she told
You reeled me in on a hook

Love her but remember me
One day you'll be wishing
To know where I'll be
I'm long gone on daybreak dawn
Nowhere to be seen
